What is the best way to report a Gamerscore cheater?

my friend got mw2 the other week and the first week he had it he boosted. the next time i saw him was when he was outside telling all the kids in our neighborhood that he was a pro and that he had a gold intervention from playing legit for 1 week and he had 300 headshots with it. it got really annoying so i called him a booster and he freaked out, then he told me he would destroy me in a 1v1 with his golden intervention. then he started telling everyone he got a nuke the other night so i checked his kill streak and it was only 20 (from boosting) so i lol'ed a little. then i played a few games with him and he did worse then me and im horrible at the game so.... yea. thats my $tory.


i replaced the s with a $ too!

I wasn't trying to defend his "friend" at all, I just don't think it is worth spending anyone's time (Guile's or Microsoft's) to go after someone that cheated for gamerscore. Oh well, I am not going to bother posting in here anymore, the childish people seem like they have come out to play now.

By the way, Ke$ha wears a necklace that contains a piece of her placenta, which she believes will give her psychic powers. Yes, I'm serious. No, I didn't make that up.
 
Why are you wasting your time getting worried or angry over this. As long as your ex-friend doesn't cheat/hack during multiplayer sessions that affect other people, it really doesn't matter.

because there are hundreds of people with gamerscores near 400,000

you know how much money it would take to actually accumulate that realistically.......

why not just make a website dedicated to all those glitchers, laggers/standbyers, boosters, modders, cheaters, etc. I saw one a long time ago in the halo 2 days and it had all the xbl gamertags of the people who were modding and such. Funny, yet ironic because it continues to happen and microsoft does little to stop it. Has anyone been confirmed banned that you know of yet? Nope, not me. Has their gamerscore been reset? Yes and they just make a new account anyways and it goes the same for halo 3. People on there boost all the time and don't play with their legit accounts and does bungie, microsoft do anything about it? No. The kids just try and brag like they're kid but won't use a legit account and instead a bogus throwaway account.

Not much at all. It's called GameFly. If anything, the time element would be more crucial than the money element.

Besides, the point of my post was that MS has dealt with Gamerscore cheaters in the past, so I don't why anyone would say they won't do anything. They already have. Pretty silly to say a company won't do something that they already have.
 
Go into his profile on your XBox and report him for cheating. Pretty simple. I'm not sure if they have narrow the allegation down to gamerscore or not, but I wouldn't be surprised.

Actually a lot of people played import games to double or triple stack or easy AP. Most of those import games and system which are pretty expensive. Not cheap but if you sell the games after you are done it isnt too bad
 
If hes a friend dont report him. If you do your a douche, And hes really not your friend.

Dont take offense to this but it would be true :)



As much as i hate pirates/cheaters. I personally wouldnt go and just report friends like that. Why lose a friend over something as stupid as a game console.
 
I'd have to agree with the others.

If it's not affecting, you no reason to give a shit. I see huge gamer scores and just think "loser!" so I see no reason to care about people that cheat to get them other than thinking they're even bigger losers.

I only report things that affect my gaming experience--people cheating in online games I'm playing, people constantly spewing racial slurs etc.

Not for nothing, but a person who would stoop as low to cheat to boost GS would more than likely cheat in other aspects of gaming, as well, and that would most certainly affect the rest of us. If nothing else, hopefully a shaming like having their GS reset will teach them a lesson. If not, oh well. Worth a try.

He's not a real friend, just an acquaintence I exchanged tags with.

Funnily enough, today I just found out this guy owes my store $500 in bad debt so it looks like his cheating ways has carried over into real life. So I don't feel sorry in the slightest I reported the gamerscore and if he doesn't take care of his bad debt within a reasonable amount of time I am going to take him to court.
 
wow your going to report your "friend" and possibly have MS label him as a cheater forever just because of his abnormally high gamerscore..dude.. think about that and then gtfo
 
I couldn't possibly care any less about GS cheating, but I'll still stand by what I said before. If the guy cheats to boost that, I'm sure he would stoop to other forms of cheating. And that's where it affects the rest of us, and then I do care.

Also, if the OP reports the guy, and he's not a cheater, MS isn't going to do anything about it. I'm sure they have methods in place to determine these things. I'm sure if I randomly reported a bunch of people in this thread, you all wouldn't be branded by cheaters by MS.

[quote name='GuilewasNK']I have someone on my friends list who all of a sudden has 1000 and 200 for all his games. He now has over 70000 gamerscore. Not too long ago he had less than me and mine is only 12000 so I know he has hacked it or something.

BTW, I mean report to Microsoft, not CAG in case there is confusion.[/QUOTE]


Does it really bother you?? There are worse things going on in the world....LOL....Tell him to move out of Mommy's basement!!
 
I find it hard to believe so many people are ridiculing this guy for wanting to report a cheater and say nobody cares, then whine about people glitching and modding in MP games...when it is only a game and it shouldn't bother you (the same way GS modding doesn't bother you). You hate when someone cheats in a game you play, but then condone another form of cheating.

I don't understand why anyone would care about someone glitching, modding, cheating, lagging in an online multiplayer game. It goes both ways..

Ditto. I actually kinda wish there was a way to get rid of some of my points or keep them private. :p

To me points just broadcast how much time you spend in front of the TV.

Glitching, modding, and cheating shouldn't affect you. Just leave the game and join a different one.

To each their own. Most people on Trueachievements or Major Nelson's blog share my sentiments. It's only reasonable that some people would have a different opinion about it.
 
I was playing a match with AttackingMVP on MW2, and the guys were playing against were cheating, they pretty much admitted to it. I filed a complaint and a couple of days later one of the cheaters left me a message with one word: $$$$$$!

It brought a smile to my face seeing his GS set to 0.

I am not ridiculing Guile for it like some of the others, but there is a huge difference between cheating for gamerscore and cheating in a MP game that affects the gameplay for everyone. Don't repeat that bullshit about just quitting and finding another match to me either, none of us should be punished (whether you care about stats or not, most games punish you in 1 way or another for quitting early) for someone else doing something clearly wrong. If you don't understand the difference, you have some major denial issues or just like to piss people off.

Anyways, as I said before, Guile is going to do it regardless of what anyone on this message board says. That is his choice and that is fine with me, I really don't care one way or another as his reporting the guy doesn't really affect me in any way. I was just trying to understand why he was so persistent on doing it over a score that doesn't hurt anyone.
 
Cheating is cheating, period point blank and leave it at that. Everyone is trying to justify their opinion for one reason or another but the bottom line is if it was done purposely a certain way to gain an advantage or advancement somehow then cheating is just that flat out.

I didn't know numbnuts way of cheating (glitching, modding, lagging, etc.) affected your online membership such as XBL. Afterall, you are paying to have a good online experience and all right? Guess people forgot about values, morals and what not. If you don't like it, then quit like others said and take the loss. If someone is willing to cheat their gamerscore, i'm sure they are willing to cheat on other things and it only gets worst with the mentality that they get by not getting caught.

That logic is very flawed, I knew plenty of people that gamesaved in order to get a higher gamerscore and none of them would ever "glitch, lag on purpose, or mod" in a competitive multiplayer game. I pay for Xbox Live in order not to have to deal with those issues in multiplayer, I really don't care what anyone does with their single player games. I was a huge SOCOM player back in the PS2 days and the lag switching, glitching, etc. ruined those games, especially SOCOM 3. Had they wanted to just do it in single player, I wouldn't have cared then either, but you bring a whole different way of cheating into multiplayer over single player when you screw over people that know you are cheating instead of an AI that doesn't know the difference.

Cool, didn't realize there was a CAG leaderboard on TrueAchievements.

At least as far as TA is concerned, hackers spoil the data set that TA values are based on for the rest of us. That's enough reason to not want other people to cheat.
