So I have been reading alot of posts recently about people being host booted, bridged off host etc etc. Here are a few tips to avoid it.

#1 Don't play doubles. That's it, full stop. People host boot IP flood, etc etc all the time. Just the other day I got IP flooded for nearly 41GB and hit my internet cap. Don't play doubles! Esspically at 50 high.

#2 Don't Run in 3's. Again Don't run 3's esspically at 50 high. Same thing applies, Bridging threes is so easy, and standbying in 3's is even easier. Just don't run threes, espically in MLG. 4's is ok seeing as its harder to bridge, and you should be able to find games at peak hour. If you run threes, i can almost gaurantee that 999/1000 of the time, you will be bridged off host.

#3 Running in 2's in ranked is probably the best way to rank up, and find a fair game. Not in Doubles obviously. If you are good enough you should be able to win. Don't tell me "Arhhhh But my teamates are so nooby blah blah blah." You have more chance of winning running 2's and getting partyed up with a scrub then running 3's and getting partied up against bridgers, cheaters etc. And running 2's does work. I won 11 games straight the other day on my MLG 40. It does work if you play well.

These are my 3 main tips to avoid cheaters. You can search doubles and not find cheaters sometimes, just avoid them, and file complaint them. I have file complainted many cheaters before and seen them lose there ability to play online.

And if you find cheaters don't search again, while they are.


tl;DR: You're here to read my tips so read them or get out.

If you're an age under 18 the authorites can't do anything about IP flooding.

My friend was 16 and he was fined $250 000 for IP flooding.

Well lets just say your extremly lucky, and i've read a few of your other posts before. Once i hearrd you say you knew most of us who bridge and that they dont do it anymore, can i ask which group you were referring to? it wouldn't be AHP by anychance?
I mean Australians by Us.

I wont say their names. They are aussies though, and 2 of them frequent this forum from time to time. There are also a few others that I know of, most australian of course, oh and the suddoths. And there is very little cheating going on in this game, anyone who says otherwise link the games or stop lying.

If you arent a 50 you arent being cheated in the 1st place so dont bother. Dubs may be the one exception, but even in that its not too bad

Wether or not you have a 50 doesn't matter you ignorant f7ck. It's still classed as cheating, But in any case i have a 50 in 3 playlists.
If you want me to link games i will gladly.

1st and last games you got booted, second was a connection problem... You can check their game history if you dont believe me.

Now how many games have you played? Compare that with the 2 games you were cheated, and tell me its a big deal. Who cares anyway, I can understand its a bit annoying, but its rare enough that it doesnt pose a huge problem.

Also when I said if your not a 50 your not being cheated I meant these kids that keep on posting that they are being cheated at 10-30 high. However your 3rd game was the first time I have seen cheaters outside 50 high in many many months

I have listed 5 games so far over about a week. And there only the games i have listed, if i could be bothered searching longer i'm sure i could easily find 20-25 games where i have been cheated and ripped off.

Dont get me wrong Idc if you circle boost, but if you do, you no longer have any opinion of cheating in any form. Despite the seeming difference cheating is cheating

and if i played legit, im pretty sure it would go something like this,
Booted, Booted, Booted,
Play someone not booting and smack em 25-2,
Booted, Booted, Booted,
Lose 50, Lose Faith in Mankind, Stop Playing.
At least now I can search without fear of losing my 50 because i get booted 10 times in a row.
