Is there anything to be done about Lv1 accounts named Leader?

[GailWho]

I'm just wondering if the mods of this forum can tell us what is going on with the account(s) called Leader that have no buildings but are IA at Lv1. It shows up in matches every attack... Sometimes multiple times. Usually with a different medal reward which makes me think there are a great number of them floating around. Members of my alliance in many leagues have seen these mystery accounts. There's no harm done as long as you don't try to attack it but I'm wondering why have these fake accounts littering our game as a reminder of the great number of cheaters that remain. What are your thoughts on the matter? Any estimate as to how many are out there? Is anyone as curious about these intruders as I am?

Just ran into this the other day (somewhere around 950-1k medals); took a screenshot, but then didn't report it, because, well, you know- it doesn't appear to do much good.

 

[Tipek]

I hope I'm not the only one praying this is them finally deleting accounts of cheaters (unlikely, I know).

GailWho ... At first it does no real harm... but after battling for some time you may notice it popping up very often... Which then sums up to harming your gold amount..
Each base you discover 750 Gold .. I think in the last week I have found it more than 100 times, which actually does begin to cost something...

I hope someone from the Mods Ironangel ?? could explain ...

I see it around the 2800 medal range. I reported it with a screenshot but have seen the base since. It's annoying losing 750 gold each time if it pops up a lot.

 

[GailWho]

I hadn't thought of that... I just sit there mindlessly tapping my button lol. There was a time I'd get so mad I was losing all that gold having to skip but now I expect it to get the base I want. So this is a very good point!

 

[GailWho]

Oooh! Now there's a very nice thought! They do call us all Leader in cs.

 

[GailWho]

Ok so I'm at 2100 and I saw it when I was at 2200 too. Parmenion is at 2800 and maggiepie saw it at 950. Anyone else seen them at their medal range? I feel like a detective gathering clues... Just the facts ma'am I've noticed that they give different medal payouts too. A couple I happen to remember were 9 and 20 because they were back to back. Let's get to the bottom of this mystery!

 

[GailWho]

And to answer Will's question he posted in a different thread ... nothing happens when you hit them... Your troops just sit there looking at the pile of bones unable to move. Wondering if those are the bones of another idiot who tried to attack. Didn't risk a flying unit on it... So don't know what happens on that. I FQ on it not wanting to risk the medals. Has anyone let it play out? Wasted air units? Geez the questions keep coming! Ironangel please show us your wisdom!

 

[maggiepie]

The medal reward I have screenshoted is +23/-16. It's strange you'd see such a descrepancy from a back to back next- I'd think differences might be due to slight fluctuations in your medal lvl; but back to back? It may be that there are many of these strange bases. Tipek's suggestion is really interesting.

 

[Parmenion]

Here's my screenshot:

As you can see, I stood to lose 39 medals or gain 1.

 

[JuDomines]

Are they creating bot base to compensate for a lack of legit player?

 

[Old Farmer Bob]

They are vampire dwarves from another Dominations dimension come here to suck your gold away . Ignore them cos they ain't going anywhere soon.

I'm getting these bases about 10-20% of the time at 2k medals. Crossing fingers that they are starting to purge the hacked bases. But why not just delete the accounts? And Max IA bases still make up 50%+ of the bases I encounter (when we know that very few of these should exist)

 

[Mr Suplex]

Its absolutely ridiculous that his has not been fixed yet.

 

[USA Elite Will]

I am thinking it is an inside job now that Nexon hasn't stopped or addressed this. 1 in every 4 bases I scout is one of these, at 750 gold a pop, Nexon found a way to get their gold back from the players...

 

[Barns]

I also had this crop up and foolishly thought I'd attack to see what happened. However, I was unable to even deploy troops so they couldn't hang around not knowing what to do. It was all greyed out at the bottom. Annoying...

 

[Ravenlord]

That was my first thought - but that would just be mean Nexon, real MEAN!!!

 

[polo1967]

LOL. You sound like me. I took dozens of screenshots but didnt bother reporting them after reading about how relaxed they are about handling cheaters.

 

[woodchuck]

not sure if they changed it, but the first time I encountered this base I was able to deploy 1 infantry. but he just stood there not attacking anything. I lost medals. >_<
