ESE & ACA.
As some people still do not understand our role within the ACA council we thought we'd make it clear for once and for all. . . so here here are some background informations for you to read and prevent you harrassing us any further regards to matters not concerning us.
ACA (Anti Cheat Alliance) was formed some years ago by ACC (Anti Cheat Community) with the cooperation of Clanbase and TOST/ESE under one roof.
ACA's main goal is to provide an easily accessible helpdesk for everyone, specially leagues. So the Leagues can go to ACA, request information or an investigation to possible returned banned players, or ask for help from expierenced Demo-Watchers regarding a match conflict or simply to require expert advice regards to TOST/ESE matters/kick/ban messages and more.
It should look like this:
ESE , TOST <-> ACA <-> Leagues, Players, hamsters.
While Clanbase sent ACA Demos to check for cheaters, it is our part to provide a cheatprotection and help out if someone has some questions about a player, banned accounts, linked players and so on.
That is the reson why we are in the ACA-Council. For no other reasons.
So if ACA and CB decide to ban someone because of a Demo - it is a decission between the ACA-Demowatchers and the ClanBase. A decision not shared nor involved by ESE team, one because we don't care, secondly because we don't even watch the demos (and neither will we.. we have more important things to do).
At the moment ACA is a little bit inactive so there is also a direct communication between ESE and Leagues themselves. For this matter, we provide general advice about players (not sharing private information), Clans and how to work smarter together to combat cheaters and make gaming leagues better equipped with our knowledge.
ESE <-> Leagues
ESE Keyfile sharing
Seems to be that there are still people out who can't read or need every two months a reminder NOT TO SHARE YOUR ESE KEYFILE.. (this includes making a keyfile on your computer and giving to someone else...)
If you click on our Download Area and proceed to download the Account Manager... you see there is a descriptive text with two red parts. (red usually means important and or dangerous...)
Those two lines make it very clear to understand:
- Don't share ESEFiles with someone else. (This include the ESEKeyfile!!!)
- Backup your ESEKeyfile.xml
If you share your ESEkeyfile.xml file and the person you share it with (or make an account for) gets banned... then you will also be banned, with a linked account.
ESE can not use fingerprint technology or photo analysis to see who is behind the computer (maybe one day..!) so subsequently we use HARD TECHNICAL FACTS which shows to us, you are the same person.
Secondly and more logically you actually violate our EULA (End User Licence Agreement) by sharing the keyfile so we can (and do) remove your rights to use ESE (regardless of the friend being banned, this is enough for us to disable/ban your account for keyfile sharing).
So to summarise, every user has to create his/her own Keyfile on their own computer.
If they have a problem, they must contact us directly and we will look for a solution. Usually, if someone experiences an error.. you may ask yourself deep down inside, why (and 9 out of 10 occasions it is because they cheated or someone with their account or on their PC did).
Sometimes it may take longer for us to resolve an issue or make an official statement about each problem/case however that is mostly due to the time necessary to check our very indepth and advanced system or that we have other commitments/priorities at that time.
Which other Cheat protection has there such an open support team with the various methods as we do? Email, mirc, forums, FAQ, knowledge base..etc...
Since 16th of December 2008 we have over 995 IRC-Tickets answered. That is approximately 5 tickets per day. Not counted all are the MSN, ICQ-Questions, Forum questions, email or private messages.
