The gamers recorded the cheater in action and posted videos on forums as well as complaining to the developers over what actions they would take against the hacker. Up until then, a user by the name of DarkSide, had been accused of teleporting around the game world, inflicting enormous amounts of damage on other players and then evading harm. All in ways impossible to do in the game.
The video was brought to the attention of Chris Cleary, Game Security Lead at ArenaNet.The YouTube video posted sees the character now under control by AreaNet staff. The hacker’s character is stripped down to his shorts. He then waved and jumped off a tower to his death.
