Apple Game Center - when will mods be brought in to admin for cheats?

One thing that gets on the pec-ends of many is the blatant cheating that goes on in Game Center. I don't know about anyone else, but I was led to believe that GC was doing to be different to OpenFeint, Agon, Crystal and whatever-the-feck-else there is out there. I'm guessing not.
Take a look at the leaderboard for Super Mega Worm; the top 25 are all in the two billions, with the top 14 at 2,147,483,647 (7FFFFFFF in hexadecimal, the largest possible integer to be expressed in 32 bits) when most non-cheating scores don't even crack 7 digits, and scores which are not a multiple of 5 when that's how SMW scores. Or Angry Birds Seasons - someone "scored" just short of a million in the Christmas levels, when everyone else was down in the 60-70,000 area because there was only one Christmas level available at the time.
The iDevices that are being used in these cases are clearly jailbroken - if Apple was true to itself, and genuinely trying to discourage hacking of its hardware, it would have moderators for GC, wipe out any blatant cheating, warn and/or ban the accounts they were done from, and the serials of any device used to prevent repeat offences. It wouldn't be that hard to do - or would it just make too much sense...?

Tell Apple your views here http://w.apple.com/feedback/ but don;t expect to hear anything back, nor anything to happen quickly. Its unlikely to be a priority for them

  • How can i delete an old profile off game center when i dont know the password?

    i set up an account on game center when i first got my old iphone and have since upgraded my iphone. i cant remeber the password for it and so cant log in. i cant seem to reset the password but when i play games i get a prompt telling me that no achievements will be saved until i log in. i have opened a new account on game center but still get the prompt from the old account!!! can anyone help?

    If your device is signed into an old iCloud ID that is an earlier version of the ID you want to sign in with, do the following:
    If you are using iMessage and FaceTime, make sure you are signed into these services with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless you are using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out (or Delete Account if you are not running iOS 8) and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • TS1702 Game Center app will not open, in setting I only have a spinning icon , which seems like it can't download the app.

    Game Center app will not open. I only get a spinning icon on settings. Trying to open but stuck. On app itself , it's just blank.

    Hi Free lee,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I would first try closing any pertinent apps like Settings and Game Center:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    If the issue continues, a restart and possibly a reset may also be warranted:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

    Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Communities page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.

    I have a lot of money on my Apple ID but when I try to buy something it ask for my security questions that I do not remember the answers to. I also don't have access to the email I used to set up my Apple ID but I do know the password how do I fix this ?

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    When will Data Services 3.x be released for Linux 64-bit?
    We have a quite large installation currently but want to upgrade to DS 3.1 on SUSE Linux and Oracle and would really like to run it on 64-bit.

    Data Services 3.2 targeted for this summer will natively support Linux 64-bit on Red Hat and SUSE.

  • When will the PCMCIA GPIB+ software be available for thee XP?

    When will the PCMCIA GPIB+ software be available for XP? Will it be a free upgrade? We just bought our package and it seems like we sould get free upgrade!

    Hi Shuttle,
    Unfortunately I cannot give you any specific details because I do not know any specific details myself. What I can offer you is that I know that it is being actively worked on as we speak. Tentatively, it is scheduled for early 2003, but as I said this is very tentative.

  • When will the Super Bowl be made available for viewing?

    when will the Super Bowl be made available for viewing?

    the announcement will be made (or not) when the update is pushed.
    Looks like the “or not” was correct. It hasn’t appeared in Software Update.
    But, it pops up down at the bottom of the related threads:

  • When will the Camera plug-in be updated for the Canon 70D for Elements 9?

    When will the Camera plug-in be updated for the Canon 70D for Elements 9

    Hi,
    There hasn't been an update for PSE 9 since Sept 2011 so it is unlikely to ever be updated for the 70D.
    Your options are
    1) Upgrade PSE 12 when it comes out (probably soon)
    2) Use the Canon software (DPP) that came with your camera - convert to TIF files and import those into PSE
    3) Download/Install the free Adobe DNG 8.2RC Converter to convert your CR2 files to DNG files - the DNG files can then be processed by PSE 9

  • When will a Windows 8 driver be available for the Pixima ip1500?

    When will a Windows 8 driver be available for the Pixima ip1500?

    That's a cop out answer.  I know it's not compatable, there's no driver!  There's no excuse for not providing an updated driver for Windows 8.  There is NOTHING about windows 8 that is so different from Windows 7 that Canon cannot easily delelop a driver for it. If I am forced to buy a new printer because you won't provide a driver for my ip 1500 it wont be a Canon.

  • When will Sweden get the new v50 firmware for noki...

    When will Sweden get the new v50 firmware for nokia 5800? Why is our country amongst the last few to get available updates?

    I live in the US. I should be the one complaining! As an American, I'm not used to waiting forever for everything. The US is a large market Nokia neglects. Of course, few of us buy its phones but that's the company's fault for making so many **bleep** models. Many nations don't even get updates at all! They're still stuck on firmware 3. Trust me, you have it good up there in Sweden.

    does anyone know when will iphone 6 be avalaible in stores for pick up?

    Probably once demand has died down a bit.
    Best thing to do would be to contact the store you wish to buy from and see if they have any information for you.

  • When will come the new raw version update for Adobe Lightroom 4 with Nikon D750 support?

    Hello Adobe,
    When will come the new raw version update for Adobe Lightroom 4 with Nikon D750 support?
    Best regards
    Frank

    There won't be an update for Lightroom 4. The only way you can work with your D750 raw files is to use the free standalone DNG converter to create DNG copies. If you want to be able to work on the NEF files then you will have to upgrade to Lightroom 5. Lightroom does not use the Camera Raw plug-in. Everything is part of the Lightroom program. If you want to stay current with Lightroom then you need to follow the update/upgrade path. That means purchasing each new major version of Lightroom or subscribing to the creative cloud plan.
