Re: Regarding the Use of Third-Party Programs and Player Safety

[ExcellusUltimus]

Except anti-cheat would not do what you apparently think it does. It will not stop people from cheating. It will not adequately protect YOUR account and YOUR safety. It would not prevent bad actors from continuing to do what they have been doing this entire time. Tell me you don't understand how anti-cheat works without saying those words exactly, because this reply certainly tells me that.

So you don't think it would even detect ACT or whatever that pluggin is that people use to manage all of their cheating tools?

That... isn't true.

It needs to be running locally on your machine and either hooks into the game process or scrapes network data.

Any websites that you might be thinking of require a log that was generated using the ACT program to function.
