I.P BAN (I.P BAN HACKERS FROM DomiNations)

[Xx-Saber-xX]

Hello Everyone,

We need to deal wth this Hackers. So, im going to start with I.P ADRESS. This will ban hackers and cheaters in DomiNations. Only the developers can do this. They will check your progress, your purchase in-game (History of bought Crowns in-game) and Hack tool device use to hack DomiNations or PC MODDING.

So, this is Great Idea?

Also, they have proof. They will take a screenshot and send it to you by Gmail or whatever. YOU CANNOT LIE BECAUSE THEY HAVE EVIDENCE. SO, TELL THEM THE TRUTH. IF YOU TELL THEM THE TRUTH, THEY WILL GIVE YOU 1 LAST CHANCE TO PROOVE THAT YOUR NOT A HACKER/CHEATER.

SIMPLY JUST EXPLAIN.

It does not make sense to ban IPs because a lot of ISPs are still issuing dynamic-IPs to their users. There are also not enough IP addresses for everyone (online) in this world. If one bad vibe on 1 IP cheated and the IP was banned, that would lead to other innocent players be affected as well (when the ISP reuse that IP for them).

You can't stop hackers. The only thing BHG can do now is to improve as much as they can on their server side checking i.e. check for building and wall limits. Anything done on the devices side will be futile because hackers can just disassemble the code.

I.P. Bans, like the person above me said is just not possible with mobile devices. Many players solely use wifi and data that do not have static I.P.s, however they may have mac addresses that could be useful in banning certain devices. The solution to this is to fix the initial problem (editable game files, memory, etc) and permenately delete the malicious base's history as it is server sided so it cannot happen again. The developers have a history of who bought and who didn't buy crowns so in essence this is pretty easy, but it requires more hands from employees.
