Epic cheating fail?

Hey guys, found some user making crazy results, and when i've seen the others, saw that he's cheating for sure...

 

Take a look:http://hwbot.org/submission/2289451_febrantodi_3dmark_vantage___performance_geforce_gtx_460_(256bit)_22555_marks

 

i7 2500k, 2C/2T, no P8P67 at the photo, seems to be an Asrock or something like that...

 

Second one: http://hwbot.org/submission/2298649_febrantodi_3dmark06_geforce_gtx_480_38082_marks#'>http://hwbot.org/submission/2298649_febrantodi_3dmark06_geforce_gtx_480_38082_marks#

http://hwbot.org/submission/2297889_febrantodi_3dmark06_geforce_gtx_260_216sp_26357_marks

http://hwbot.org/submission/2298098_febrantodi_3dmark06_geforce_gtx_280_26975_marks'>http://hwbot.org/submission/2298098_febrantodi_3dmark06_geforce_gtx_280_26975_marks

http://hwbot.org/submission/2294594_febrantodi_3dmark11___performance_geforce_gtx_560_ti_6108_marks

http://hwbot.org/submission/2298142_febrantodi_3dmark06_radeon_hd_4830_18669_marks

 

Exactly the same photo in different hardware submission...

 

And the funniest thing:

http://hwbot.org/submission/2298098_febrantodi_3dmark06_geforce_gtx_280_26975_marks

 

The same score at CPU, SM2 and SM3...

 

Any doubt that he's not cheating?

I wish I could see in this person's mind to at least get some sort of understanding of why you'd cheat at hwbot. What's the point?? There is no prize, you're never going to cheat well enough to be ranked at the top without being caught. You're going to just end up being an embarrassment to you and your team.... I don't get it. gen068.gif

Onepagebook did that for quite a while though.... And many top10 hwbot users have been 'creative'......

I wouldnt take that as a reflection on the team - if I wanted to make them look bad, I could do that to smear their name. Team entry is open to anyone.

 

 

Care to explain Mr Beier?

 

Big globals at stock has been openly criticized. I wouldn't criticize it tho, as a herd of OCN zealots would swoop down to insult me and attempt to make me feel bad about myself. (i watched it happen to someone else and said nothing)

 

That's just an example.

Are you calling it a cheat? M. Beier called it "creative". I explained my perspective on what his connotation may have meant regarding people in the top 10.

 

There are others in the top 10 in relatively low competition PCM05 globals as well (I am one of those too). I am surmising that those types of scores could be considered "creative" in terms of gaining rank. There may be others as well, I haven't looked that closely and I'm trying to stick to what I'm more intimately familiar with.

 

Personally, I don't think its a "cheat", and I'm not sure why anyone would suggest such or approach the topic from that direction unless they were searching out confrontation - perhaps your goal is to engage an argument? However, I could see how some would reasonably consider that an exploitation of the system, but still I personally wouldn't consider it as such... If the "creators" didn't intend that type of usage, then they shouldn't reward it in such a way. Since they do reward it, that demonstrates intent, and those taking part are using the system in the way its intended.

If a score doesn't scale with extra MHz, why OC further?

 

If a leaderboard that's currently only open to 4s systems that, by design, do not OC, is given points by HWB staff, how is that the fault of the participant? :)

 

There's my opinion :)

I like you dude. We met at the Microcenter thing we held and you were cool so I'm not looking to insult you, but that was an honest statement about something your teammates did recently.

 

Some people on your team have a bad attitude, and take pride in it:

Maybe sergiorb deserved that thread for questioning the validity of stock scores worth 50+ points. But sergiorb just questioned the scores and did not personally belittle dhenzen as far as I saw.

 

I don't think its a very cool thing to make things a personal attack by bullying someone with less power. Especially a personal attack where someone is called a "fag". Hwbot staff removed that, not dhenzen. :-/ A person has to be seriously ignorant if they can't disagree without resorting to publicly posting a slur like that like there is nothing wrong with it.

Not "All" of us are bad, are we I.M.O.G.?

The replies posted by a select few I know causes people to reflect all as bad, But not all are..

Although I don't agree with sergio, he has a right to complain in a decent manner. Dhenzjhen (or how you spell it) got warned, and if he posts shit like that again I'll personally make sure he'll get a nice, long vacation:)

 

I don't think anyone can disagree with the fact that it was unnecessary and stupid, and just one fool acting on his own - AFAIK he was the only one who was being rude.
