Closed Hackers In Arcane River
Hey Nexon plz BAN all of this Hackers. This Guild called -Removed- is hackers. See in this Video i recorded one member using hacker:
-Removed-
Comments
Let me take a moment to point out that this particular post is a very good reason why we don't:
You recorded the person's name as containing an upper-case I (i), which is identical to the lower-case l (L) in the game's font. Normally this would be less of an issue, however in this specific case if you spell the same person's name with a lower-case L, you will get an entirely different player, with a completely different class who is not involved in this video.
This is why caution needs to be taken before accusing someone, and one of the few reasons we do not allow accusations on these forums.

It's not about letting people hack freely. It's about keeping possibly innocent people from being accused and, moreover, to prevent an environment where mudslinging is considered acceptable. Most examples of letting people shame hackers, even with definite proof, have devolved into arguments and further unacceptable behavior.

Excessive amounts of sarcasm, such as what you're doing, is part of that mudslinging environment. This is a game forum, not an internet drama board.
As stated, the name of the accused in this particular post was incredibly similar to another user who is uninvolved. Had I not searched the rankings to double-check, I would have forwarded the wrong name myself. Please keep your memes and sarcasm to yourself.
Some of my early early work xD

except some of the hackers we report do not have i OR L in their names with illegal action that is done SO OBVIOUS
we report these videos to support (Nexon supoort in 2017 lol) and they just ignore the report video and move on their lives
even with multiple video evidence, nothing is done.
it makes you question a few things: 1. is nexon letting people hack? 2. is nexon support incompetent because they cant tell someone is hacking? #MPpotforPP 3. are nexon GMs lazy? 4. ?????????????
Something needs to be changed
If Nexon's GMs don't act on videos sent them in their report queue, that they are supposed to deal with, why would they ban by videos on the forum that they never visit?
Honest reports might be good for "raising awareness", but people aren't always honest. People can post fake accusations for any reason or no reason. Or do you truly believe that every "X is a scammer" smega is truthful?
Screenshots and even videos can be faked. And often people make accusations without even supplying either. I could post "I saw jasonxdd botting" or any other accusation, and the thread would be filled with your denials, and your friends and my friends arguing, and people who don't know either of us taking sides just because drama is fun. It would devolve into a flamewar. Eventually the mods would lock the thread (because even if accusations were allowed, flamewars aren't) and we'd just be left with a bunch of people with tainted reputations and bad feelings.
Nothing good would be gained by allowing people to accuse others on the forum.
If you want a hacker banned, you have to get Nexon to do it. Posting on the forums is about as effective at getting Nexon's attention as smega'ing in-game. They don't look here, they don't act on what they see here. The mods might forward a report before deleting it (as implied by Neospector's post about nearly reporting the wrong IGN), but if you think they are more listened-to than a random ticket, you can PM them your evidence.
Instead I watch more and more cheaters hit 250 with 0 action against them.
Again, please don't accuse people of hacking on the forums.

As said before, this is just a very good example of ONE of the reasons we do not allow this behavior. The subreddit post I linked explains it far better than I ever could: "Raising awareness" does not help. You and I, members of the community, cannot ban people. Us knowing whether or not someone is a hacker will not do anything to get them banned faster.
Now, I'm going to say this one final time; the reasons we do not allow naming and shaming on these forums are as follows:
1. False accusations and mistaken identity
2. Faked evidence (both video and picture evidence)
3. Pointless and excessive drama and infighting
4. Toxic behavior such as attention seeking, excessive (and pointless) Nexon bashing, and mudslinging
5. The fact that the forums are not the place to report players in the first place and will not help them get banned faster
Or I could just put my foot down and point out that it is against the rules, and that continuing to ignore the rules which you agreed to upon joining this forum will result in warnings and suspension, whether you like it or not, because it is not a particularly arduous task to follow the rules as they're listed, and outright refusing to do so is not heroic or good-intentioned, it is simply being stubborn.
Now, I have explained numerous times why we do not allow naming and shaming and I have given clear example that it is not purely Nexon who invented this rule in some convoluted conspiracy to let hackers keep hacking. If you don't agree, then fine, good for you, but it is a rule on this forum.
This discussion is going nowhere and this topic is not up for debate. Closed.
