[Declined] Auto-kick against mults

[SEB_MP 48]

I really think twice or more before join a match in Tanki now:

There will be Mult or no?

 

I'm a web/software developer, and what I know most is there's no problem without solution, especially Auto-Solution.

So when I see a problem like Mult not fixed yet, I see only that Tanki want to let a space for cheating.

 

 

Please fix this problem, it's a nightmare for all players who know what is Mult and don't use is or don't have the possibility of do it.

 

The fix is simple:

Add a second Chat Command call it as an example: (   /mult PlayerNickname   ) and when system get that command it should do a simple checks on that Player:

 

- Get IP of that Player.

- Compare it with other players IPs

 

If

- there's a match

then

- Check if those Players (with the Same IP) plays in same team or no.

end if

 

if

- they play in same team

then

- do Nothing

else

- get the Score Data of all players with that IP

- do another check:

if

- one of them play too bad or not playing at all.

  (you can do a percentage of what a bad player is by checking the period of his playing and his score.)

if that player above the percentage of bad playing then he is a Mult. else is not (or at least someone play with it badly and we don't care about that.)

 

finally if all that checks goes positive then that player is a Mult and should:

- kick them out from the match and ban them from joining in that match with the same IP.

- and of course a system of reputation would be nice too:

if that player repeat to being Mult a couple of time, then that account deserve a Forever Every Ban.  

-----------------------------------------------------

 

PS:

- Generally lagged Players will not be affected with this checks cause they will not play with same IPs. And even if they just lagged (while they playing from same IP), it's a cheap Price for handling Mult Problem for good.
- if someone want to play with his brother/friend with same IP in same match they should play together in same team or play well. or play 1vs1.

- The only way left to be a Mult is to ask a friend Via SKYPE or any other communication way to be a Mult, from another IP. (and that we don't care about it or we will vote him and wait for an Admin to join).

So Pleeeeeaaaaaasssssse  Handle this problem.

Declined

 

An automatic kick-ban system against mults won't be added as the possibility for false triggering on innocent players is too high. Developers would rather have a small team of moderators who deal with some of the mults, rather than an automated system that works against mults (still only the ones with same IPs, so not all of them) and also kicks innocent players.

What if my sibling join enemie team and is a total noob and can't really do a lot against my team, but joined not to mult for me, but to try, if he can be as good as I am and wants to battle against me and we are using same IP address.

Same IP address, but 2 different users what then? This is why automatic system wont be really a good choice to deal against so called 'Mults'

Not every siblings wants to play in same team, just for reason to be more competitive against each other.
