Now that would be incorrect.
"We" are all aware of what it collects and what can be collected.
The methods of banning and avoid them been discussed thoroughly for several times already, I would not divouldge into it.
This is not a "how to cheat" forum.
At the end of the day it is quite possible to evade a net ban, no matter how "really" they want to ban one, if one is to invest the necessary amount of resources.
And that really isn't also a problem.
For one, cheating is currently quite hard unless you're a proficient hacker or had some hacker do the ground work for you.
Secondly, almost all forms of cheating can be monitored for if you raise suspicion (and those obvious enough will trigger an almost instant ban).
Third, if cheating grew to become epidemic, switch permission mode to lock new comers to spec, have staff release and throw out players as needed.
Evading bans or not, it will take cought cheaters some time to get back, and even they do if they're stupid enough to cheat again they'll just get cought and thrown out again.
So it's really something only a bored person, who doesn't really want to play the game rather just cause grief, would do. |

As I already said, we have some players in TW who are constantly evading Netbans, cheating and also passing cheats to others.
Cyan~Fire I don't know if you're joking or not, but cheating is getting pretty prevalent. The other day in TW we had a player named Alaskan passing out a URL which had instructions of how to do several memory cheats in Continuum using a program called the "Cheat Engine" (A memory hacker which is not just for Continuum). These cheats included infinite energy, pixel hack (make your ship whatever size you wish) and quite a few others. |

This is the point where I just must sit down, take my hat off and spam 
Clueless people make me laugh.
I remember years ago I had this really old version of CE and I used it to create thie save game editor for warcraft 2 that would give you FFFF (65535) of all three resources types.
Was that saddest thing ever. |

Have people Download a Free CD-Key to use Continuum.
CD-Key Allowing Continuum Added Security. Yay.
And the CD-Key will be Free for Download. |

If the CD-Key will be free and so will the game, what use will it bring? |

Spyed - Games which ban on Cd Key are much more effective then banning on IP. So if you get banned on Subspace it's much easier to bypass it if you have the knowledge then go out to the shop and buy another copy. I think Counter strike source is Cd key now.
Cd-Key Could Log Their Ip Information Machine Id. Etc. Everytime they Log in It could store That Kind of Info. |

If the cd key is free for download, when someone is banned they will simply get a new cd key.

Heres an idea. HOW ABOUT YOU PROGRAMMERS JUST GET GAME GUARD!?!?

That is almost totally untrue. And if you believe that, then you have another thing comming when you ban some newb for cheating in your zone. You CAN come back, and its way too easy. You must be thinking of a subnet ban then. I heard those are a doozy to bypass. A new computer to bypass a ban? What are you talking about? You have more sense than this. |
