I think somebody may be cheating in my arcade, but I'm not exactly sure and I want to find out for sure. Is their any way to find out how? Please help!!!

I'm running vB 3.71 and ibProArcade v2.6.7+

One of my members found the 'bug'.
He can track and alter the packet to be sent to the server, so he can register any score he wants.
This is a huge breach in the security. I dunno how it can be solved.
I'll have a talk to this member later and try to figure it out.

I know how to do this myself using a plugin available in Firefox. I'm not sure if there are any other ways of doing it, but it would be great if they could be fixed.

People registering fake scores is a real pain

latest v2.6.7+ has some more protection against this data-tampering ...

We have someone in our forum who plays one game and reaches the highest score over people who have played well many times.

I suspect cheating.

How can we confirm if someone is actually cheating?

Yes, we looked at the times, but "the times" can be faked as well can't they?

If you really wanted to make it real, but most cheaters don't want to spend the time doing it.
