Again: if you ruined your CDKey installation, you won't even get to contact the server. Have you tried to reinstall the patch? Do you get specific error messages?

invalid cd key is the same message I got when I was banned

No. Invalid CDKey is not the same as "CDKey banned" or "CDKey is not active". I don't know what you've tried, but you may have screwed your installation while trying to circumvent the ban. Try to reinstall the patch. You aren't banned in the system since more than 1 week.

The Host Can take Quicksave , or you can also do it with AutoSave.

You can load as him with Scen editor , or download Drexmod.
I don't think you can see someone's civ with scen editor. The only thing that I know works is load the save with drexmod and make sure someone else is loaded on the person who you expect of using the hex civ (change to same color, make sure the player was not in the saved game originally). Then after it loads just check the civ and its pretty easy to figure out if there are any double occurrence.
how to load in as someone else?

Hey,

First of all I wish you all a happy new year :)

To this ban: I know I am not an admin and it is up to you (in the end) what you decide. All I can say I think it is a little bit unfair to ban this guy without an official warning (from a mod/admin). I mean guys like Aioros, Halloween, alej0, abcd etc. .. All these used cheats for various reasons ... They got dozens of chances before a ban and it was much more difficult to see their cheats (come on ... 8+9 range ...).

I don't know plautus and I have nothing from it to "help" him. But I think everyone should get the same penalty. Empire Earth is a small community, we need every single player. A few years ago I played a game. I was an admin there. We got like 100 players every day. We banned for every thing that was not allowed. After 2-3 years the server was offline.

I am not saying we should allow cheating/bug using etc. Hell no. But I think the EE community should warn the members and yes ... Give a second chance as if you did it to all others. If he does it a second time, ban him for a month. If he does it more often, increase the time. And then ban him permanently.

I wrote with him a bit. I think he understood his lesson. Now he knows what will happen. I know he should have when Arntzen and others told him its not ok. But ya ... People are different.

It is your decision but please think about my words. That's all I want :)

Greetings
Basilik

Terms of Use is found here: pages.php?p=lobby-tou

I told you it wasn't allowed and you just laughed at me. Not sure how many people told you this is cheating and you just continued.

Re: plautus

Im totallyy surprised by the ban, I wasnt informed it was cheating, so I kept using my customized civs a couple times, believing it was allowed.
So neo consideres it as cheating? :o

Can u pls unban me, I didn't know it was considered cheating.

Re: plautus

So if that's ok for u we can do it that way.
But the ban I find a bit unfair. So I ask u kindly to unban me.
If the devs forgot something, then it is to check during civ load that no civ bonus has been applied twice by manipulating the civ files.
Hex civs are and always have been considered as cheats in EE Online, ever since the Sierra servers.

You can do that. But it is against the rules. If someone in these games decides to report you and presents the evidence, you will get punished. I don't have the time and the will to do further research whether cheating in some particular game was consensus or not. The NeoEE TOUs are explicit about that:
3)
I will not make use of cheats. Cheating is defined as the deliberate abuse of (known) program bugs within the game, trainer tools or any memory-manipulating programs and modifications of game files in order to obtain an advantage in game or to disrupt other players in their gaming experience. I accept this definition of cheating and I am aware that cheating can lead to a permanent ban from NeoEE.
Thus, I have no reason to think that my action was unfair. You have had the chance to know the consequence of your action, that's all what matters. In doubt, you could have asked before, but you didn't.
