    I agree with Psychopathic completely. This thread shouldn't have been stickied and no player that has been mentioned in this thread owes any explanation to anyone except for the customer support and they probably don't need explanations and can track stuff down (I hope). If there are people who are suspects, then you report your suspicions via a ticket and that's it. The initial aim of this thread wasn't that probably but now it turned to attacking certain players and alliance(s) which shouldn't happen.

    Just going to say this because it has to be said. If Shield (as the most respected alliance by name and reputation, deservedly so) recruited 5 suspicious accounts nobody has heard of who score 1300+ every round, you wouldn't call them out?

    What the point in having a community if you let it be polluted by hackers and people like Naz shooting off his mouth in literally every post. As a leading alliance harboring obviously suspicious accounts they owe it to the community a respectable answer to the accusations, as well as customer support. Clearly by Naz's and either his cronies or alt accounts (Cant tell) they say they are in right and do so by insulting everyone's intelligence, play still, and pocket book? Is that a thing? Pre-alliance era was a wonderful time here, and while lines have been drawn since then, things are not so far gone as to not treat each other with dignity and look out for one another. Obviously everyone here is not community driven or mature enough to realize that.

    This is a jury of his peers and we deserve a rightful answer. There seems to be no official Dev presence anymore which is worrisome in itself.

    Also let me make you look dumb more than once. Last pvp I hit 1149 without shielding ONCE yes I said I didn't even shield. The pvp before this I hit 1209 before shielding. So sorry I earned them once. So try again please...

    Above 900 points you're in thunderdome so it makes sense to skip for the 30+ point battles and shieldhop, but if you're doing that at 600 we're probably getting from 600 to 900 much faster and easier than you are, dude
  • Ok I will bite icon_e_smile.gif

    Assuming there is a secret method that X-men is protecting...

    Why isn't everyone in the alliance using this secret method?

    Do you pay with boosts and shields to you obtain the proper level where you are brought into a trusted circle and given the secret?

    Do these same members get to board a space ship with Ron L Hubbard?

    I must admit the mystery does have my interest piqued!

    Long story short- Maybe there is cheating going on, there is always a possible there isn't. People will always find a way to cheat a system though and you can't let it ruin the fun for you.
    There is a community here that is greater than who places top 2. If cheating is going on don't let that destroy the community. I like to compete, I am competitive in nature but i learned long ago I am competing against myself not anyone else. If someone cheats to a score it doesn't devalue the score I earn.

    Lastly, people don’t usually hate someone for being the best, they admire them. So if anyone on here feels like they are being hated for being the best that’s just a personality defect.....


    sorry no fancy meme icon_e_smile.gif
  • I rarely post but here is the bottom line in this debate:

    1) Xmen have several rosters that seem suspect & all of those people conveniently are not on this board & apparently are being told to stay away (read above no need to quote)
    2) Unlimited HP can let anyone win. Using both multi color boosts & another +3 boost, skipping any & everyone, health packs for in between
    3) People who pay to play & have suspect rosters could be using an iap hack. I have seen these before in online games. They cheat the game makers & game players both. If that is the case, those accounts should probably be outright banned on steam/ios/android/etc
    4) All attempts to ask for an explanation of point 1 can be are met with "we play better" (no explanation) or "some people pay" (that is fine, still doesn't explain shady rosters) or "we won before, so duh" (what does that have to do with this)
    5) all the extraneous name calling is unnecessary & everyone is to blame for that (that is just how it goes I guess)
    6) Multiple accounts from one person goes against the terms of agreement for nearly 100% of online games & all those accounts should be banned. Checking the credit card accounts attached to each account is easy for the dev team. They can check the names & addresses on the accounts. The same names or addresses would be bad. additionally exclusively gift cards would be a red flag (could be covering up shady stuff)

    That said, if everything is above board, then props to those players. But as Jozier, Nemek, datKrow & several others said, they sniffed out several shady players last season & they recently got tossed. My season 2 bracket is down to 4995 players. 5 players got tossed for cheating including at least one top 10 finisher. So it will be interesting to see what happens. If cheaters are in fact caught, their respective alliance scores should drop retroactively too, which obviously should deter alliance from taking shady players

  • As a former member of the 5D family (I still have much respect for some of the truly good guys there) and someone who was recruited by X-men (and would've joined out of respect for psy if I was willing to take the game more seriously) I can say that this thread is much more fun when you "don't have a dog in the fight."

    That said, I think this would be a much more productive. Thread if there wasn't blatant bashing of the 5DV. Guys and thumbs down given to all of Naz's posts. There is obviously a reason why there are questions about the integrity of certain players, and if you can deal with those questions without resorting to childish name calling and negativity it would certainly cause any rational person to think more carefully about your argument.


    I can't agree with you more, buy you need the full story. I can't even post anything on the forums without someone giving me 3 negative rep for a recruit post. Not to mention the countless swarms of harassing posts by 5DV. Not to mention the stupid in boxed messages I received from them. At this point I don't care what I say anymore. 2 other people fall into that as well the unwise one and arktos1971, to me just very annoying stalkers imo. I just wish people would leave us alone, but that's like Prince Charles wanting to be left alone. It's not happening. It's like when Kanye West beat the hell out of the camera guy, it's not just the one guy the one time it's all the guys all the time. Then the media wants to expose Kanye as a monster. Well dam if you didn't provoke him and just let him live his life then you wouldn't have got knocked the **** out.

    please, talk within your alliance before making posts...first some of you said you were not p2w , now you said you did spend a lot.
    and flo98's roster isnt huge as well, now what exactly is your so called secret besides spending money?

    Any1 that "they caught" of cheating could have just as easily been caught with a customer support ticket.

    If d3 has any sense the entire top 10 alliances would be scanned for cheaters every tourney.

    Really? Your great idea is that if someone is using their credit card to fund 2 accounts is to ban 1 and get the user to stop spending on either? Lol?

    It's either spending an embarrassing amount of money per week or cheating to replicate the power of spending an embarrassing amount of money per week (or cheating to win without even giving themselves the appropriate rosters, which is just entering into "**** how dumb are they and how are they not banned already?" territory). I'm not really worried about finishing behind guys who are dropping $100 bucks on this game every week or two, if that's what they're doing, so they can say "we're #1!" in a little mobile game. Even less so finishing behind the guys who are doing that and not even getting to even be in the #1 alliance. You can be not-#1 for free, guys.

    I've always thought Kanye was kinda overrated. Not as overrated as jay z or Jim carrey (yeah I said it) but still. I want to hear more from dong tackler. His name makes me giggle

    Some people spend some don't. I don't. I wasn't saying nobody does I was just countering the sentiment that you need to pay to win. I do know what tanking is, I don't know why you care if I do.

    I guess that's where we are different - even if all that was going on and I was on the receiving end of it, I wouldn't start calling the alliance as a whole any names. . Like I said, I know a lot of the 5D guys and like them - they were always nice to me. If it's true you are being put on blast pretty regularly, that sucks but I fail to see how responding with childish insults is helpful to your cause in any way.

    To each his own. I don't know you so I'm not hating on you, and I don't play with the big dogs anymore so I'm not judging your Alliance. Just saying it seems like your approach is counterproductive.

    Find a post I shot my mouth off in where people where not talking **** about me or my alliance? Yea that's right? Never..
  • To the above yes I do work harder. Until I get my roster up I will. But that is why the X-men succeed we all work hard and push each other. And that's why I'm spending money cause I don't wanna have to work as hard. And I moved to X-men with flo and gypsy from our old alliance DMZ disco mob. It's simple they spend and play hard and use strategy. You guys can whine, report or what ever else you want to do. They will keep scoring and nothing will be done. Nothing can be because there is no cheating. If the debs decide to stop selling covers and shields will be about the only way. And I doubt that will happen.
