I'm here to help you Riot! One Easy Tip Which Would Identify 100,000+ cheaters....

Troll Armada··2 votes·534 views

While it is considered toxic to call people out in a game for cheating, the responses to those accusations are very interesting as well...

Run a keyword query on your database for things like:

"what is hack" "what is bot" "you can cheat at league" "what is script" "what is scripting"

It's 2016, and it's literally beyond comprehension that anyone does not know what these things mean. Therefore the only people saying such nonsense, are cheaters.

This is confirmed when you look at various cheater site guides on how to respond to being called out in a game.

There's too much possibility for false positives for this to be implemented

sigh, young senpai pleaze! this is the first step, then they can run their various 'advanced' algorithms on those players and/or look for generalized differences between various aspects of those players and the overall player base etc...

Have these players recieved an inordinate amount of reports?

etc etc etc

To climb a mountain, you must take the first step. I can't just spoonfeed riot, the entire solution, I want them to learning.

^^^ potential cheater identified.

See, now that we have identified one such account feigning ignorance, we can watch this account more closely now for the inevitable signs of cheatings.

What's a cheater

He's not completely wrong with the added details. Discussions of cheating/hacking usually only come up in games where someone suspects someone is hacking/cheating.

But his method doesn't help all that much, since if someone is convinced there's a hacker/cheater in the game, they'll just use the post game report for it.

Ya I agree that it's a kinda decent idea at the surface. But people call hacks or scripts way too much. Plus for lower levels at least some people might not know what scripts are. There's just too much room for false positives.

Yes but someone's response who really does not know, does not follow the certain troll code used by cheater.

There is certain nuance which perhaps you are missing if English is not your first language.

It could simply be a smurf, shure!
