Epic won't ban you if your GUID is being spoofed - because that's impossible. :tinfoil:
If UTAN discovers it though, they will ban you in their database.

Epic does ban confirmed cheats and whoever has a name they don't like.

Yes brizz, I haven't heard many cases where Epic is banning individual keys from cheaters. UTAN global bans is the enemy, that's the whole reason DD is doing it. They feel the same as many here, that UTAN shouldn't be judge/jury/executioner, with their no tollerance attitudes towards cheating. So, they are finding ways to proove that the UTAN global ban system is flawed.

That is their point.

...and the problem is, even if admins wake up, and stop accepting global bans, there isn't exactly an easy way to filter that UTAN setting when browsing for servers, which would suck for anyone banned. They could just filter UTAN server by mutator, but then still get stuck with the ones that have it as a server actor if I'm not mistaken.

Actually it was deleted from the atari forums completly and I was warned not to discuss "cheating" on their forums.
No one here has done any censoring that I know of.
That's why I reposted here, because I knew at least on this site it would stay and no one would be afraid to talk about it. The people who run this site have some scruples unlike the Atari forum.

Apparently I was warned for using the "Report Post" too much. Well, there was this guy named SphereX running around every thread lying about what HaloUT does to create its content packs.

Not my fault there were 200 spam posts. I only reported 5 of them and I was called spamming. Gee, I reported ONE out of each forum he spammed on. I thought that was appropriate, and yes, I thought before I made the action.
