dang it! They're just ruining this good game.

I know. Im playing colony right now and I just got hacked by a guest. The thing is that guests can hack but never get banned cause they can't be tracked and their name changes everytime!

U mean they cheated by hacking in the game? Maybe their MAC address or machine ID could be tracked down, which is unique anyway.

Good idea! I never thought of that! Now all I need to do and tell is find Krin (somehow) and report hackers to him so he can tell the administrators which will then ban hackers through theirl MAC and machine ID! Thanks Suin!

Alright, didn't want to post here, but I will. Krin will do nothing about hackers in Colony. There is no reason to now that Colony 2 is WIP. You can report them to Soymaster, but don't be asking for a permanent solution. There is a thread on this though, but I don't feel like putting a link up for it.

How u know? And how do u even know Krin?!? And I do not believe that u personally know Krin or Soymaster enough to know what they will do
I will try to find that link (even if there is one) and notify BOTH krin and soymaster

Ask, and you shall recieve. There is info there you might want to take a look at.

I stand corrected. There is a link, but u still have no proof whatsoever that Krin will do nothing and that Soy would only make a temprorary change.

Krin will do nothing as he is busy with Sinjid. And by the way Colony 2 is the third in Krin's list so you'll have to wait for a while. This is the actual proof that states that Krin will do nothing for the first Colony.

Whos Sinjid? And if colony 2 is 3rd in his list whats his first?

Oh, I just looked up Sinjid. Its a game not a person (dissapointed sigh) So, Sinjid is first on his list?

He is working on Sinjid at the moment. I am not sure if the list is in order or just random. I would like if he worked on Colony 2 as soon as possible though. Sonny can wait.

devsaupa is right. Krin will never get around to fixing the problem of hackers in Colony (we've been asking him to for over a year), there's just too many of them. You can try to get some of them banned but the best option is to just avoid them. One pretty surefire way to figure out whether someone is a hacker or not is to check their stats, using /stats username. If they're over rank 10, that means their rank is hacked and that they are likely a hacker as well. If they are rank 10 and they have fewer than 64 games played, then they are also hackers. Guests with ranks are most likely hackers, unless they're guest_9001. Good luck, have fun, play safe!

Yeah. Let's just then increase the awareness of hackers!
