Comments?
I'm quoting you because I was hoping to get an answer.
I'm no computer expert but have been thinking about the banning an inspection methods they could use.
They can't be reviewing 400 thousand players a day and they can't be checking into every submitted report. They could be spammed to death by that method.
Could they design a program that checks fast leveling up against low time played with low kills?
This would indicate boosters ( especially domination types ) where there is not much killing done.
They can not possibly staff enough people to visually inspect all of the game films to catch boosters.
That time has to be reserved for checking on glithcers and hackers.
Just a thought and didn't know if it could be done but a daily report, generated by a computer program, would be a logical explanation on how they are catching a lot of boosters.
With all of the statiscal data they are running on this game it should be possible to design some detection methods for players falling way out of the averages.
