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!

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