Cliff's notes for the lazy: Post evidence and start acting your age.

If you guys can't start posting and treating each other in a manner resembling that of mature adults, I will be forced to lock and/or delete any future threads like this. It's really getting tiresome. Next time anybody claims to see NEO, please, for the LOVE OF GOD push print screen and upload it to some webspace. From what I know, the Elite admins won't do anything without particularly damning evidence, so just claiming you saw them do something isn't going to accomplish anything, and all it's doing is clogging up the MP forum.

Tachyon, Thank you for you kind but rude reply. I do have 2 screen shoots as i stated but they have no use, In both you see MD with full hull and full load of nanos. That going to prove nothing. I merely was warning everyone around Neo to watch them close. Do you think every cheat can be screened?

If you want another circumstances evidence look at MD post:

Moby... we constantly have 63 bots and bats becouse we dont use them
Yeah sure. Your hull is bullet proof? Didnt I just smashed it? After I told Tasiin that i seen him cheat, There was one minute of quietness, couple rounds of battle and his nanos droped to zero. Well did he needed to dock? Yes. Thats about not using nanos. (Am i that good fighter? no)

Befor going to post here i tolked to few friends from Elite, most of them confirm this strange activity. My primary reason to this post is WARNING.

ps. Neo well known tactic to fake pictures only proves that with ss you cannot achieve anything.

I'm just saying that whenever I see somebody accusing NEO or one of their members of cheating (though admittedly my attendance to this specific forum is not constant) I never see any proof offered. It borders on the absurd. "Lookout for this guy, he cheats, but I won't post screenshots." If you're trying to warn the players of Elite, why not include your proof? In most competitive gaming, any claims of cheating must come with evidence in the form of demos or screenshots, or they are considered false, not just my-friend-said or I-heard-that type of rumors.

In answer to some of the peoples points:
1) they accuse NEO of cheating cos all i hear is how NEO scream cheater when beaten by anyone who is 'new' to the elite server. Not heard personally of course
2) - how on earth can he take hull damage and repair without using nanobots, but without reloading, deactivate his cheat to then be able to USE nano bots??
Sorry - not working. He would need to reload at the very least. The only mod they might be doing with nano bats and bots is that they repair more than they should..........
Missiles and torps however can be made to not use ammo, however - due to a kinda bug in the system - every now and then you will get booted for cheating. So in effect you are walking on dangerous ground if the admin ban for one booting from server.........

3rd time for Tachyon: This sneaky cheat as one of many others, CANNOT BE SCREENED!

Moby just becouse you and your friends have a ****ty aim .. doenst mean we have infinite bots or bats... or that he have invunrable hull or shield. You can not blaim us for your incompetence. Go off to your lan server.. train for a month non stop and maybe.. and i say maybe you'll be able to take down our shield.

Evidence, actualy there is no such thing, i could create a screenshot useing any so called elite player that would show him cheating without editing the shot in any photoshop or other such program, so screenshots are a total waste of time as far as evidence is concerned, and im sure if i can figuire out how to do it a lot of others can.
Cheating will never be stopped thats one reason Starlancer MP died so fast.
Eventualy atak and stinger will just get fed up with all the **** and privatise or shut the server.
gathering evidence on someone that uses subtle cheats is impossible, and probably are the most effective ways for the asshole cheats to gain the advantage they cant get from skill.
this isnt meant @ any particular individual or group, just a statement to all, your wasting your time.
