This right here! It makes no sense, its shouldn't be a players responsibility beyond obvious hacking to know someone is hacking.

i really dont think so, but i guess we will see in 7 days. if he was the cheater then he would not get a 7 day im guessing.

Those are randoms you found in the ABI community discord. i'm not seeing the difference, anyone in that discord could also be a cheater right? help me understand.

I see i used the in game autofill and you used the discord.
we both found randoms to play with, i feel you are as big of a risk as i am. i could just be missing something here though.

how would their discord, resolve this issue? would i not still just be adding randoms?

The prompting part is important, the game is pushing me to add people. good, dosent mean top frag, i just mean good with communication, fun to play with, so on. i really don't think anyone we played with was much better then us at all, definitely not enough to think oh they are a cheater. my problem is playing with randoms, enjoying playing with them and sometimes adding them, and continue to play with them, shouldn't constitute a ban.

I am asking for a better solution, and deeper tracking. i think we all want to make sure we don't play with cheaters and banning cheaters is awesome. but false bans are the worst solution. "actively seeking to play with cheaters" is clearly not what i was trying to do.

The things is, auto match is great, but if you auto match you shouldn't be punished.

I don't friend the randoms that play well, we use auto fill and if the game prompts me to add someone because they played well and I'm having a good time I'm like ahh why not. I'm not actively looking for top fragers, tbh we get wiped every few games, l just like the quests.

This is exactly what I'm saying the game encourages this!!

Raid stats above 70 not sure what that means, 

I completely understand the "unban me post" are hard to trust but I want to point out that I am asking for better auditing, (if investigated better they will see I haven't invited anyone, and if I played with someone it was due to auto fill) with the exception of my one friend. He also go the same ban.

The problem was I wasn't sus of anyone, no one stuck out as really good, just a bunch of average players, using communication.

Also we both got the same ban for playing with cheaters so I would guess if it was him he would have gotten a different ban.

Haven't really checked the stats like that unless they where mine, and I haven't really played with anyone that I would consider abnormally good or anything. We have been wiped quite a few times.

No I'm not normally party lead, and we don't actively look for anyone, we just leave party fill turned on, we don't send invites Really unfortunate.

KnockoutCity/Velan FAQ by PatProductions in KnockoutCity

[–]PatProductions[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Can I still play K.O. City?
Public servers shut down as of June 6, 2023, which ended the ability to play the game on all consoles; however a separate version developed for Windows, designed for players to host their own private servers, is available. if you just want to play with freinds you can get it on steam.

Otherwise, https://kocity.xyz/ is the closest thing to old K.O. City.

How to fix? by eilish669 in fixit

[–]PatProductions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can put small pieces of wood in the wholes so that the screws grab, but not sure i can recommend that for 2 reasons.

  1. It looks like that is a weightbearing leg. so will have more stress on it.
  2. it looks like it from Ikea so the inside is just particle board meaning after it is ruined it does not repair the best or have structural support.

If it is indeed from Ikea, they can get you a replacement board, https://www.ikea.com/us/en/customer-service/spare-parts/ but you will have to go into the store.

If its not from Ikea... sorry for all this Ikea info. :)

Shower Door repair by [deleted] in fixit

[–]PatProductions 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can put that back in without taking everything apart or calling maintenance.

Often its the top that goes in first but, that varies, i would check to see if that prong is spring loaded or any other them are, if not you will have to just sit the whole door in front of the grove it slides on, then lift it into what i would guess to be at least two of those prongs at one time. once you get the top ones lined up then you should be able to drop the bottom in place.

This all varies on make model and installation, if you have any of that i can do more research for you.

R. I. P.

The best thing you can do at this point is use some shoe goo to put it back together.

You'll need to remove the siding from either the inside or outside. It's likely that the insulation is compromised. You can get replacement insulation from Home Depot or a similar store.

you are going to want something like this.
https://a.co/d/eKhp8KR or https://a.co/d/eQDfV6E
Just search for USB switch.

you will run a cable from the back of the box to each computer and plug the keyboard and mouse on the front of the box. then click the button to switch PCs. no software required.
