Cheater (BIG Paintball 2)

==Overview ==
The game struggles sometimes with Cheaters (sometime called Hackers or Exploiters) like many other Roblox games.
The anti-cheat system is regularly tried to improve, but this is a cat and mouse game. When one improves something, the other follows suit. The problem is much less than with BIG Paintball Classic, but the flow of the game is often interrupted.
== How to recognize a cheater==
The most common effects are: 
*Numerous cases are opened within seconds
*Players who fly
** Beware of false suspicions: There is also a bug that catapults the player into the air)
*Players who (regularly) shoot through walls
** Beware of false suspicions: Since the small November 2023 update players can shoot into the spawn area, the player there is only protected by the spawn bubble
*Players who hit you even if you are still protected by their Spawn Bubble.
** Beware of false suspicions: Nukes can always get you
** Beware of false suspicions: After you start shooting, you lose your own Spawn Bubble.
*Players who move much faster than other players
** Beware of false suspicions: some Weapons have speed advantages (e.g. Lightweight Minigun or Silenced Pistol), this should be checked before reporting.
Players with low Level but expensive weapons are also often labeled to as cheaters, but most of them have been given the weapons by friends or have simply been lucky. This is not sufficient proof for a report.
Players who run around and shoot down other players but do not have a weapon in their hand are also sometimes referred to as cheaters. Due to a Bug in the game, it is not certain whether this is a conscious or unconscious use of the "Avatar Abuse".
==How do I report a cheater - general==
To report a cheater, it is necessary to record the game and provide the video to the BIG Games moderators. When recording, it is important that the username is also visible, the display name alone is not enough.

== Should I ask a cheater to stop cheating? ==
Rather not. It might work that the cheater stops because they just wanted some attention, but others will then continue in a particularly aggressive manner. Calling another player a cheater/hacker in chat can also end badly for the person who wrote it. Several people have been banned by Roblox for calling a suspected unfair player a cheater/hacker in the chat. This will sometimes be interpreted as an insult by the aggressive Roblox chat filter. Therefore, it is always safer to report the cheater as described above.
==Can I report a cheater to Roblox?==
No. An in-game-report to Roblox is not sufficient. Roblox itself would only be contacted if it is not directly about this one game, for example, serious insults in the chat. Only Roblox Staff have access to it, but they cannot ban for the game. BIG Games Moderators do not have access to this type of report.
