Update: I have implemented a CAPTCHA system to protect the attack pages from macro attacks. I spoke about doing this before, but I had delayed my efforts on it until recently.

I received reports of several players requesting for macro software to auto-attack. This is unacceptable, and I have preempted their efforts with a random CAPTCHA image that will trip macros.


Cheating is NOT acceptable. If you don't want to play properly, don't play at all, and save us the ha**le.


The CAPTCHA won't annoy you too much, because it does not appear on every attack.

However, it happens frequently enough to trip up cheaters.

There will be even more measures taken to prevent these irritating individuals in the near future.



Named and Shamed

Choppyoup - hundreds of attacks with zero turns remaining.  x2226
Yalindra - same as above. x1353
JArch3r - same as above. x1273
Skarz - same as above. x1197
abendugo - same as above. x1118
mesharack - same as above. x634
darknshy - same as above. x379
motanu123 - same as above. x357
Meto [GoW] - same as above. x226
Seanyg12 - same as above. x200

DAcS - incessant online activity, automation tripped alarm.

There you go. There is the full list of cheaters I have found already.

EDIT: The x#### is the number of violations recorded. The players near the bottom, who are under 100 *may* be legitimate, but bad with managing their turns.
However, anything above that is just not believable. Who the heck can do 300 attacks where you don't even have turns left, and not notice? I know some of you employ strange attacking techniques, but honestly, you would notice by 300, wouldn't you?(smiley)

Hahaha.. I was like "WTF! is this?" then I remembered you were planning this and checked back the forums and *poof!8 I was right.. 

Its good that it doesn't appear on every attack..


I didn't have to do it but I did it to say, that I didn't have to do it but I would anyway..

How about a name and shame list? Let me add them to this thread as I pick them out.
