Lol, I only sold around 10 copies, no big deal.


Its a big deal because its 'making personal gain or profit' and as such its against the user agreement.
You already admit to
1. having the hack
2 having sold it.

Both serious offences.

May I suggest an apology and promise not to do similar in the future may be a good move at this point.

Good Job.
Now that you are moving towards a more honest position, you'll find a lot less heat on you.

There are a couple of outstanding points though. You are wrong to say you didnt sell it because the buyer 'made a donation'. They donated (i.e. gave you money) and it was compulsory to do so inorder to get the product, it was not a voluntary donation - meaning if they dont donate, they dont get the goods. Thats a sale.
If you offered the goods freely, asking for an optional voluntary donation, then thats not technically a sale, but its still technically 'personal gain or profit' and not allowed.

If you agree that it was wrong, and agree not to do anything along these lines in the future (rather than trying to suggest it wasnt so bad) then you'll probably find the heat goes away altogether.

Regarding Datol selling the map hack, do you have any supporting evidence, such as a link to where/how he does so?
Well done on getting him to admit to having done so in the chat here in the forum, he's not denying it.

Light and Peace.


Sorry. You're totally right about the donations. It wasn't an optional donation, but I wasen't selling it for 3 dollars. Anyways, nowhone has to worry. I won't give out links for any kind of exploit or hack on Stick Empires, firstly because I recently accepted the Terms and secondly because it would kill the game. Again, sorry, I acted without thinking about the community and i'm responsible.

On another hand, is the pause game exploit fixed ? Something weird happened in a game recently and I was disconnected.

Good job. You wont be getting more heat from me. My concern and the reason for this thread is that, as you say, there is a real risk to the community, and an online game without a community is a dead game - so there is a real risk to the game itself.

I dont think its fully fixed at this stage. There was talk of a fix this week sorting ot out, but it still seems to be going on.
Particularly the 'freeze/lag without displaying a pause as the statue collapses'

Maybe Tec can shed more light on that than me.

If the game was site locked and most constants server-sided the game would be way harder to hack.

This guy froze the game, his name is Jotatakimoto (currently 49 on top 100), it was before the game started.
You can see it's froze because of the praying icon thing, and I had time to type, and the timer's still on 00:00

PS: Please help, I'm still waiting, what should I do? Refresh? Stay? What?

Are you sure it's his fault ? I've never witnessed any exploit or hack that can do that. You might have to quit the game.

I was in a match with someone and he/she surrendered but while the statue was falling he paused the game to lag me out. Patch 1.47 fixed it so he/she was lagging out while the game was paused.
I think his name was fatfault or something like that.

Did anyone actually click the link posted by JM before Tec deleted it?
I didnt, but I would be interested to hear if there is any truth in the claim made by JM to me, that the link was a joke, a troll response to Shadowy, and actually lead to something which was obviously not a hack.
Anyone who followed the link out of curiosity, I'd apreciate knowing. I would have followed it to see, but I was at work and mediafire is blocked at work for me, and I didnt get round to following the link from home before it was removed.

(tec, why type 'chuck test A' - was that where it did go to?)
