Tried to cheat and failed. Sadly, the system isn't much more specific than that, for fear that it may lead those reading the report to hunt down cheats. Server log sometimes has a bit more info.

I wont have anymore details until I get home, but there's enough of these that it isn't time-efficient for me to put them all in stockades for ye folks to throw fruit at.

Ye don't have to have it specifically yell "YO DAWG I HEARD THIS PLAYER DID ___ BY ___ING WHILE ___ ____ ___" but you could at least have it say "Attempted Cheat #004" so devs can do a code/script search >_>

Figured it'd be something along those lines. As per usual I'll check yer char history over to be sure, but this is pretty common. The fact that you'd even try it on suggestion, however, suggests a propensity that would exclude ye from FN hosting, I'm afraid.

@MiB: Mayhaps I should make a log and post it in the dev section. The reports don't really tell us much, save that folks have hacked their chars either through extreme attributes or hacked items (type I), or attempted to do so (as above) via filtered console commands (type II). For the type I, it does't give any clue as to how they achieved their hax, but I do erase their chars and make a note in the FN logs.

Meh, no real harm done. FN hosting is a pretty exclusive club these days. It's pretty tricky to be able to host an MSC HLDS server from a technical point of view in anycase.

Be grateful though - this community is REALLY nasty to cheaters. Most get harassed and ridiculed right out of the game altogether. Yer just getting a light tap on the wrist for being tricked, while others have been virtually burned at the stake for far less, sometimes even for just being caught partaking in exploits nearly half the community practices regularly. ;)
