Thankyou Ivan, Clumsyorchid himself told me in a PM how it works, I have got 2 hackers and one tool blocked/banned so far (according to what I have seen sincce the reportings), and I'm proud of it!
Someone sticky this, so we can post evidence here.
USE THE SUPPORT FORMS
Now here is a PM from Clumsyorchid sent to me explaining it a bit further after I reported some hackers and a website.
"Hello,
Just wanted to give a brief reply to your mailing. The Abuse forms are very useful to us, we can pull a lot of information form them. We investigate each claim and work to take proper action. Users have been banned based on reports given to us, but the real goal is to stop the programs causing the problems. Work is done on a regular basis to identify and stop these people and programs.
Websites, such as the one you listed, have been submitted by a large number of people. We are already working to stop the cheats being distributed and the sites that host them.
GMs patrol the lobby in plain clothes as well as the GM robes. Plain clothes, as you would expect, is far more effective in catching players online than the more noticeable GM outfits. There is an effort to step up patrols within lobbies using GM outfits, so you'll likely see us online more Smile.
As for BB, the community response has been incredibly helpful. If users continue to submit forms and send in information about users and/or cheats we can work to stoping the problems on the servers. The real message I want to relay is that we are working hard on the problems daily. You might not see everything that goes on here, but we are always checking and fixing problems on the backend and in the game.
Hope this addresses your concerns.
Thanks"
