Firestarter the German Battlefield 2 player who held the number one ranking spot has had his points stripped, I believe this is due to hacking or cheating of some kind.
Phantom who is Chinese has taken the number one spot but controversy looms above the top players of Battlefield 2 are they all hackers or honest players?

Apparently he was name hacked. Somebody stole his name and was using hacks.

Being name hacked would make me mad enough but to lose all your status and points that must have earnt big time.....
The guy was from a different continent and EA wont reinstate him thats gotta hurt and following some of the links through and reading some of the sad relpys some people made me think how sad some people can be but what is strange is that he kept his rank, typical EA
But an interesting topic Liam

This is from Geordie at PunksBusted Streaming on F1r3starter .



OK, this post is to clear somethings up.

There are PB screenshots that show a player called f1r3starter using cheats, this is NOT "THE" f1r3starter.

It is a group of cheaters that are using a cheat that allows nick changing.

However, someone saw fit to report him using the PB screenshots, and he has been reset, I am currently in contact with EA with all the proof that should clear him, also other members of the BF2 list have been targeted, -=RD=-Volx and _1_MAN-ARMY.19 have also been targeted for smurf attack.

Bad thing for the cheats, I have their real names and GUID's, I am also passing these to EA.

So don't be passing around accusations that f1r3starter is a busted cheat, he isn't, he is the victim in all this, and hopefully I can get this sorted for him.

F1r3starter will be get his points back soon and the perps will be dealt with.

The real F1r3starter has lost a few days playing time, he will also have went through alot of stress etc, due to all those hours commitments he should really seek some compensation.
