You research IP addresses. You read any server logs you can get your hands on. It may take me a long time, but I make damn sure that any accusations I make can be backed up with obvious proof. You weren't worried about the lack of mechanism when I gave you information about two aCKa players, both of whom silently left the clan shortly after.
Quote:...you shouldn't support these cheaters but the clan which support and grow up in AC...The clan which recruited a known cheat (who modified the code himself, not using some lame download), then stays friendly with that cheat because of his "I'm sorry I got caught cheating three times. Please forgive me, I'll help you all I can." attitude? Sorry, but I'd rather lend my support to clans who have respect for the honest players.

Their opinions may not always follow mine, or even be for the best all the time, but those opinions are what form AC, the game I love. Who am I to argue with that?
Secondly, those developers, I hope, are intelligent enough to distance themselves from Kirin, keeping the relationship strictly 'professional'. They are using his knowledge of the code to enhance the game. The work with Kirin will ultimately (again, I hope) be for the better of AC, and as I said, I don't consider it my position to question this judgement.
