How about a new weapon reward for identifying cheaters...

[iteachem]

I would love it if funzio should come up with some limited edition explosive called something like the "cheat buster" or something like that.

I think they should hand it out to those who submit tickets on cheaters when the cheating is confirmed.

They don't let us know whether they do anything about cheaters, but if it suddenly showed in our inventory then at least we would have proof that something is being done...I believe most cheaters are identified by forum members and those of us who submit tend to have submitted more than one report so its not like we would know who specifically got busted.

I realize support would initially be flooded, but the community seems to do a better job at policing the game so why not reward us for the effort..

Thoughts, criticisms, followups welcome..

What kind of stats would the weapon have? Perks?

Nothing major like a top 250, but it would be more of a badge of honor for catching cheaters...

I have been at this level for 2 days now and suddenly everyone is collecting on time.. slow day LOL

You not think it would encourage cheaters so people can get more of the "badge of honor"

True.... that would be pretty funny

I actually really like this idea. Agreed it won't even happen, partly because Funzio will never let you know of the person you reported is a cheater or not. Getting the reward would basically be a 'yes, joe bloggs was cheating' which is against their policy

I'd have a good 20 of the rewards of they did implement it though. Let's keep wishing!

[in-game j]

+10 maffia when attacking labeled cheaters
+100% cash drop when attacking labeled cheaters
-1 random opponent's item when attacking labeled cheaters
+1 ability to replace opponents buildings with a tree when attacking labeled cheaters

Idea is awesome. It shouldn't be something that increases any of the stats, just something that shows your work is appreciated.

Despite that, i think funzio should be more open about cheaters and getting banned. Was checking out some Crime City hack forums and many people stated to be banned within 1 or 2 days or the hack is already patched and not working. Since we all complain about funzio not doing a thing they could be more open and get more people to watch for cheaters because we know they really do ban them.

I wish they would tell you who were the cheaters who were not.

At the rate we find cheaters we would all have the weapons!

[jobadass]

them giving us a weapon would be cool. Actually taking action against cheaters would be better. I've completely given up on searching out/reporting cheaters...futile.
