Awareness on fake servers

Hey chimaera500,

I hope you are having a pleasant Friday.

I am reaching out to express my sincere appreciation for your tracking service, which I have been utilizing for the past 14 years. As a long-standing user, I am delighted with the service you provide. However, I would like to bring to your attention an issue that has recently surfaced within my community.

We have become aware of a Russian-based service that offers fake CS:GO servers. For a mere $0.30, individuals can acquire fully functional redirects for their own servers or those belonging to others, which can then be listed on GameTracker. Unfortunately, GameTracker does not currently have a mechanism in place to verify server ownership. As a result, anyone can purchase a $0.30 redirect and list it as their own.

Regrettably, certain communities have started utilizing this method to render legitimate old-school servers unranked on GT. This raises concerns about the integrity and reliability of the service.

We sincerely hope that you can delve deeper into this matter and devise a solution that will restore GT as a trusted platform for our stats tracking requirements.

Please understand that this message is not intended as a complaint or a source of frustration, but rather as a genuine effort to rectify the situation.

Best,
beverlyheighlsPM

Thanks for the no answer. I hope you are aware that GameTracker is going down and acting like this you are only going to track 10-15 of your favorite servers in a few months right? Sadly you are messing up 10-15 years of hard work with your attitude and still hope you will wake up at some point even if it will be too late.

As this was originally directed at me I will respond;

- I am a moderator. I am NOT the administrator or a developer.
- I am NOT responsible for banning or unbanning servers.
- I am NOT responsible for bug fixes.
- I donate my time. This is NOT my job.

they say boosting : "be careful with boosting" - what does that mean? why not forbid it totally? there can only be 1 reason, that gametracker is offering or partnering with the fake services/boosting servies and favours their own clients. just look at the top1 rank in cs 1.6 again. they are boosted everywhere

If such utter nonsense deserved a reply I would give one.
Your post is off topic and therefore spam.
Thread locked.
If you have something to say - in future have the courage to say it with your real account.
