Integrity

Anti-cheat

We believe that Counter Strike, whether you play casually, or are fiercely competitive, is a game of skill that is most enjoyed when everyone is playing honestly. Cheating has no place at GoBLAM and we take its enforcement seriously. We screen accounts, enforce fair play, and remove unfair advantages so every match stays competitive. Here is what we do to protect our customers

We ban cheaters not accounts

As a for-money skill-game operator, we are required to establish the legal identity of our customers through standard KYC processes. For anti-cheat, this means that we do not identify cheaters' accounts, we identify the human that is cheating. Once an individual is identified as a cheater, they are banned for life, regardless of which Steam account they are linked to. If an account that has been linked to a cheater is used by another individual, that individual will also be banned.

Immediate bans

As soon as we have sufficient proof of cheating, life bans are enforced. No batch or delayed bans, because we are banning individuals, not accounts.

Server side monitoring

We use server side statistical models to monitor player actions during GoBLAM matches. Anomalous behaviour is flagged and reviewed.

Remove the incentive

We believe we've removed some of the incentives to cheating. Anonymity and high rating. Our robust KYC process means if someone is caught cheating we'll know who they are; no longer hiding behind an alias. Due to our handicapping system, being highly rated does not convey any particular advantage. We level the playing field. Our system rewards consistent play at your level with allowances for human achievable variations to changes in skill.
