SoH twin is born

A new clan entitled Tuga Warriors Team has been recently opened with the server going live yesterday. It is lead by ex-SoH members and, although initial reaction leads you to think they might act differently to their old masters, their 1st day recruitment tells a different story. Ironically, the same cheater who was blindly recruited by SoH (that we wrote about just 5 days ago) has been accepted already into TWT. It seems SoH clan's twin is born.

Other cheaters already inside include Egyptian player mehmeh, who is an admin, while other ex-SoH members who have joined have been blocked from the SoH forums. With clan world-record holder Crotales also acting undercover, TWT has a very similar feel to FoH - a clan which died within 3 months.

Example of recruiting blindly

Joins the clan on 18 June, gets kicked for cheating on 27 July. On 28 July, makes a new recruitment application under a different name, and gets accepted within 5 hours in the same day. 


Today it was finally picked up that he was the same guy and he has since been kicked by "the best clan ever". Click on the image for clearer viewing.

UAC4 will likely not detect .ini modifications

The upcoming new version* of Universal Anti Cheat will likely not detect SWAT 4 .ini modifications just like its predecessor UAC 3. Editing .inis to gain an unfair advantage is achievable in v1.0, although it is blocked in 1.1, which was one of the main reasons the current BS tourney is being played over there.

*Upcoming could still mean many months, as a large amount of time has already surpassed since developer DeXuS said UAC 4 was 90% ready.

70% agreed it's interesting; so here's another

SoH clan member Pato, who got blocked from their member forums yesterday, was |WM|KrazyFire. The Scotsman's playing style, hate for power-seekers and general activity level was what gave it away. We brace ourselves for a barrage of abuse.

Unpunished Cheaters

We wrote some 7 months ago an article about how cheating means very little anymore; with many clans accepting cheaters, either oblivious of their history or in the view of "Let's give them a second chance." Below is a list of players who have all easily joined clans despite being caught, and continue to play freely on most servers. The 'I didn't know' excuse used by clan leaders these days is now no more credible:

Player Nick(s): SWAT_sk
Activity since being caught: This youngster has enjoyed a nice life, joining {|GA|} shortly after {BoS} closed and was then an admin in (MG) clan.

Player Nick(s): Assassin, WTH!, Hornet, E|ite, Candy, Raper, Skull, Vodka
Activity since being caught:  Arguably the greatest example of how blind modern clan leaders have been. Two cheater accounts, almost 20 clans in 18 months, yet this legend is likely to be your new clan mate tomorrow!

Player Nick(s): GLaDOS, XoX_Cz
Activity since being caught: It is currently unknown to us what this player is up to these days, but the memorable line 'if our bro GLaDOS cheat 1000 time he will still be in the house" means that he shouldn't find it too difficult to find a new clan if he tried.

Player Nick(s): Jameen
Activity since being caught:  Joined {|GA|}, since then it is unknown to us what the Indian player has been up to.

Player Nick(s): KinG, Buddy
Activity since being caught: The Turkish player came back recently as the leader of GHT clan.

Player Nick(s): PacMan
Activity since being caught: Has been rewarded for his cheating skills with elite admin power in T3 clan. Currently uses a third clean account likely not linked to old PC.

Player Nick(s): Runn3r, Hehe Kids, ReviveR
Activity since being caught: The Malaysian went into exile for a short while before joining {|GA|} and then also got re-accepted back into {SuR} when it restarted for the second time.

We have not included UAC cheaters who have remained in their respective clans after being caught. More community cheaters can be found at FoX|Mig's blog here.
