Post Things u should do when u encounter a hacker

Ok, i've kinda decided to make a "guide" about what you should/shouldn't do when you've encountered a hacker (By hacker, i mean cheater, someone who uses x-speed).

Things NOT to do:
1.Do not yell at the toon that hacked.
2.Don't start an angry mob around the toon that hacked.
I have had expeiriences with hackers. You do not want to yell at them otherwise they will yell at you, and it will result in this giant mob. The mobs aren't a very fun place to be, as it annoys some toons who want to race, and it might be laggy for them. And yelling at the hacker bassically encourages the hacker to do more hacking.

Things to do:
1.If you are racing w/ a hacker, just go around the race like nothings happening, and say things like, "WOW! You are FAST!". As that lets them know that you know that they are hacking. And also say something like, "I like your name. Hee Hee!" As that might let them know that you know their toons name and will report them.
2.At the end of the race when you finish, take a snapshot of the screen when the menu pops up when it says the place that each toon got, along w/ the time. Take that picture, and email it to Toontown.

What does a hacker look like?
When a hacker is hacking, he/she will "bounce" along the track during a race. The dot on the map of that toon will be "bouncing around" and pretty soon, the hacker will be done with his evil deed of hacking.

Don't be afraid to report a hacker
Do not be afraid to report a hacker to Toontown. As the hacker toon has no way of finding the toon that reported them.

If anyone else has other ideas for this guide, go ahead and post away!

~Edit #1~
Ok Squeaky, I put a little note on the top about the hacker/cheater thingy you posted about.

Hackers + Reporting + Online game from Disney = Noone gets banned.

Just so you know... a hacker is someone who intrudes into a database. (means they take access into an area they aren't allowed to be at) so using a program to make you go faster, is not hacking... it's called SPEEDING!

if a hacker has no way of finding the toon that reported them, then what are those things on the do list. also it makes it look like you are adoring him, or benifiting him in some way.

Because, some kids might think that a hacker CAN find them, and will hunt them down or something, just cause some of my sfs that r younger won't report hackers because they are afraid. And what do you mean by adoring and benefiting who?

Ok today I was racing at Airborbne Acres and I race off as usual. It was weird because today my computer was lagging ALOT. SO I race off and I arrive at a turn. My computer lags and I end up in the grey. SO I move forward hoping I would go back on track but I couldn't. Then a few seconds later I'm on the other side of the track 1st. I ignored it thinking oh well and then a toon says "I like your name" which is obvious what it means. I just want to tell that toon sorry and I was not cheating/hacking. It was simply the fault of lag. I really like how you guys created the system "I like your name" It made me aware that the toon was going to report me even if i was lagging. I simply told the toon "Don't be too sure!" "I'm stuck."
