i vote for permaban
Game is for fun, not to show off that "i'm good at this or that"
it would be better with effort, but cheating is just-- NO.

I know the cheating is unacceptable but I still believe permabans are slightly harsh. After all, the results of cheating can be negated and scores can be reset.

I vote permaban, there is no reason why you should cheat.

As for IP banning, not entirely sure how effective this might be. I mean I can get a different IP just by resetting my modem. MAC address banning however is a bit more effective, but I have no idea the lengths needed to do this

I voted permaban, because well, every other game out there, cheating is a permanent ban so, why the hell would we be more lenient than that.

It isn't, I've played other games that the bans are like 1 month, 2 month 6 month or something like that depending on the cheat xD

i think osu! should have a antihacking system...... like other online games.....


It does. The fact you don't know it's there means it's doing a good job; it should not interfere with normal users at all.

Yeah because sending a list of open processes and window names is a anti cheat lol. But to be real the worst thing you gonna get on this game is more than likely the flash light issue. Its not popular enough for someone to even bother messing with.

osu probably md5s dlls for a hashcheck (based off seeing osu!.cfg)

anyway, I think permanent ban is ineffective against cheaters because they can easily re-register and provokes cheaters to hack more; the 3rd option is probably the best option here
