![]() Are they consistently tracking enemy players through walls? Did they make an aim adjustment which seems inhuman? Do they kill players in less than the expected bullet amount? Are all their kills headshots? These can all be clues to help you make an informed decision. ![]() Getting into Spectator mode and observing the player is your best bet to spot cheaters. These aggressive players are getting dozens of kills without attempting to hide their cheating and are often harassing other users through the chat. ![]() Some cheaters are good in masking themselves. Our team at DICE is trained to spot cheaters through its knowledge of different hacks and cheat types, which we constantly keep up to date with. There are many skilled players who do seemingly impossible things in game, and they are often wrongly reported as cheaters (shout out to Stodeh who highlights this with some amazing plays). This is one of the challenges of anti-cheat work. How can one tell the difference between a great player and a cheating player? Players will be banned as soon as we reliably detect them and will be removed from the active game if need be. ![]() We can’t guarantee that cheaters won’t come back using new accounts, though. How are confirmed cheaters being punished?Īfter the launch of Battlefield V last year, all bans for cheating in the game are now permanent. Cheat developers work tirelessly to get around these methods, which creates a cat-and-mouse game in which we constantly need to be vigilant. However, finding the cheaters' unique identifiers and issuing bans based on them is not a silver bullet. Having worked on anti-cheat for a long time, we have the knowledge combined with a refined set of procedures to identify cheating. We use a combination of in-game and server technology, such as FairFight, along with information from external websites, player reporting, and social channels. How are you identifying cheaters in Battlefield V? What are the top five things DICE is doing to prevent cheating in Battlefield V?ġ) Working on better prevention, hardening the PC client against exploits.ģ) Investigating supplementary deterrence methods which can work alongside banning accounts.Ĥ) Investigating methods of improving the reporting flow, including easier reporting.ĥ) Keeping up to date with the latest cheat developments and reacting to them in a faster and leaner manner. Please note: in this article, we are intentionally leaving out some of the key details of our anti-cheat efforts to avoid revealing anything which cheaters and cheat program developers may take advantage of. Going forward, you'll see more status updates on our anti-cheat efforts. This article will touch on the current state of affairs, but our anti-cheat work is, of course, an ongoing endeavor. We’d like to answer some of the most asked questions on this topic and detail how we’re working tirelessly to create a safe, secure environment for the community. We have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to cheating and the anti-cheat team here at DICE is constantly working towards identifying and banning players who use hacks to ruin the experience for honest players. Playing Battlefield™ V should always be a fair experience.

The Special World is a series of challenges, so there is only one Poplin shop and nine levels.After you collect all the Royal Seeds and take on Bowser, there are four more levels plus the final boss fight. Before you collect the six Royal Seeds, there are eight regular levels and the flying battleship, three Badge Challenges, two Wriggler Races, one KO Arena, one house, and two Poplin Shops.

Two, well-established tutorials I'd like to suggest are: Luckily, there are a number of fine tutorials out there already, and they can be taken aside, and used comfortably at your own pace and time. You can follow along with screenshots. :)Ĭovering the "how to draw" of ASCII art is a little beyond the scope of the time we have, today. If you still don't feel comfortable, that's more'n fine. Please remember that all the normal caveats apply=any programs I suggest that are nifty, or useful, you install at your own risk, and so on. :) I've used these programs for years, so I feel comfortable recommending them, but installing any software still involves a risk. So, let's begin. :) Please hold your questions until I pause for them: I'll be pausing at the end of each section. Part One: Demonstrate how to bring ASCII art into a MUSH setting, cleanly and painlessly.Part Two: Provide some free, universally available tools for making ASCII art.Part One: Provide a list of resources for learning ASCII art.You say, "So what will this tutorial cover? It can be effective: it can also be spammy and can also be one hell of alot of fun. :)" We aren't looking for alot of graphics, so.just to beat a dead horse, be careful when you do use it. What we have to remember here, though: this isn't WoW. I'm here, and I imagine a good number of others are here, because we enjoy storytelling, and because there's a certain flair or flavor to text-based games.Ībrahil says, "For example, here's an example of something a storyteller might use ASCII art for (ala Tolkien): "For effect" also implies that we don't overuse it, and that we take care when we do. We use it for the same reason they did on the old BBS systems. We can do even better than TheDraw (an old DOS program) when it comes to the canvas of ASCII art.īut, before I get to that: why use ASCII art? This means, when it comes to ASCII art, we're not stuck with more limited tools like TED, or even Notepad. It populated old BBS systems as a way to get around the lack of GIFs or JPGs, and exists today in everyday communication.Īs part of a MUSH, we're a part of this older technology, though we have the benefit of a few decades behind us. ASCII art has been around as long as the 'net has. Time-based One-time Password (TOTP) via Email All these steps create a burdensome user experience and can lead to increased churn rates. Users don’t authenticate in-band - meaning they have to switch devices, wait for the code to be sent, and manually input the code in the login session. Ease of use and speed of authentication with SMS TOTP drastically fall behind compared to other authentication methods. The method, while very popular, is also one of the least secure as more and more reports have shown how easily SMS OTPs can be hacked or compromised. Just SMS service will be enough to receive the TOTP code and validate an identity or transaction. Users often don’t need any smart device to gain access to their apps or accounts. TOTP sent via SMS is a very straightforward authentication method and one of the most popular. Types of TOTP authentication Time-based One-time Password (TOTP) via SMS Still, both are considered secure, while their vulnerability often appears to be the medium through which they are transmitted to the user. TOTP refers to a time-sensitive code, while HMAC refers to the counter that is incremented every time an OTP is produced. The difference between TOTP and HMAC-based OTP lies in the generating algorithm. TOTPs are often confused with event-based OTP, known as HMAC-based One-time Password (HOTP). ![]() Also, OATH (Initiative for Open Authentication), an industry-wide collaboration to promote strong authentication, has standardized TOTP authentication solutions to be used on various websites and applications. Today, more than 65% of users worldwide authenticate using 2FA methods in conjunction with TOTP codes. Once the patent expired, TOTP gained momentum and was adopted on a large scale as 2FA became more popular. TOTP was first introduced by RSA Security and was exclusively sold under patent. In most cases, users authenticate by entering their username and password in the login frame followed by a TOTP code transmitted via the various channels mentioned above. ![]() ![]() The expiration time can differ, but TOTPs are typically valid for only 15 minutes.Īuthentication with TOTPs comes in different forms, and the codes are usually part of a 2FA or 2-step verification setup. TOTP codes are generated through various algorithms that create one-time passcodes using a secret shared with the authentication server and the current time – thus the name time-based OTP. The passcode is used for authenticating users and transmitted via SMS, Email, or as a hardware token. TOTP stands for Time-based One-Time Password and is a time-sensitive passcode used only once for authenticating a particular user. ![]() The meta-analysis of 9 RCTs found that honey was more effective than SSD in the aforementioned parameters. 8 The primary outcomes included time to complete wound healing and proportion of infected wounds rendered sterile (free from bacteria). examined the effects of honey as compared with SSD in the management of burns. Additionally, burns treated with non-silver-containing dressings were less likely to become infected than burns treated with SSD there were no differences between silver-containing dressings and SSD with respect to this outcome.Ī 2017 systematic review and meta-analysis by Aziz et al. After analyzing 24 RCTs, the authors concluded that dressings with and without silver showed better outcomes than SSD with respect to time to wound healing. 7 The outcomes that were assessed included time to wound healing and rate of infection. ![]() examined the efficacy of SSD versus silver-containing and non-silver-containing dressings. ![]() In a 2018 systematic review and meta-analysis, Nímia et al. The authors concluded that the comparator treatments were statistically superior to SSD with respect to the mean time for complete wound healing. 6 The authors analyzed 11 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and identified wound-healing time as the primary outcome. evaluated the efficacy of SSD versus numerous other treatments when used for wound healing in burn patients. The comparative interventions included aloe vera, bacitracin, collagenase, honey, petrolatum, as well as various other preparations/dressings.Ī 2019 systematic review and meta-analysis by Maciel et al. Although our search yielded a total of 24 articles, this review focuses on the 5 meta-analyses and systematic reviews wherein the emphasis was on the comparison of SSD with other interventions in the management of burns. ![]() In order to obtain the highest level of evidence, our search was limited to meta-analyses and systematic reviews. To assess whether clinical evidence supports the use of SSD in the management of burns, we performed a search of PubMed using the terms “silver sulfadiazine” and “burns”. The average wholesale price for a 50 g jar of SSD cream is approximately $15.00 and the wholesale acquisition cost is approximately $12.00. 3 Although SSD is available as a prescription medication marketed under the brand names Silvadene and Thermazene, it is available generically, as well. The product is contraindicated in patients with severe hypersensitivity reactions following application, pregnant women at or close to term, premature infants, and in infants during the first 2 months of life. 3 Silver sulfadiazine is considered to be safe, however, dermatologic, gastrointestinal, hematologic, hepatic, neurologic, and renal effects have been reported with its use. It is bactericidal for many gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria and also has activity against yeast. Silver sulfadiazine, which combines silver ions with a sulfonamide moiety, has broad antimicrobial activity. The aim of this article is to provide the reader with an assessment of SSD’s utility for managing burns. 4 Despite SSD’s popularity, compelling evidence to support its use in the management of burns is lacking. 3 Anecdotally, though, SSD may have become the agent of choice for all types of burns, including minor burns. 1 One antimicrobial agent commonly used in the management of burns is silver sulfadiazine (SSD). Formulated as a 1% topical cream, SSD is FDA-approved as an adjunct for the prevention and treatment of wound sepsis in patients with second- and third-degree burns. 2 Depending on the burn severity, appropriate management may involve initial resuscitation and stabilization, pain management, and wound care, which often involves the use of antimicrobial agents. 1 Overall, the goals of treatment are to control pain, remove dead tissue, prevent infection, reduce scarring, and regain function. According to the American Burn Association, about 450,000 serious burn injuries occur in the United States every year that require medical attention. ![]() If you have any experience with this stapler or others like it, please don’t hesitate to contact us and let us know more about what you think.

She also said she and her five employees are exhausted. Now Linden is thinking about how to be more prepared with an office homebase, with heat and electricity from generators for the staff. What’s really different about this one is the length of the storm, she said. Linden said they were also sometimes trucking water to livestock and residents through the heavy snow and ice. “We had two different control valves that feed our reservoirs freeze – and they froze and thawed and froze and thawed.” “We had two trucks stuck at one point at our treatment plant, which is 1,600 feet above sea level up in the woods by our intakes,” Linden said. Several valves that were frozen were up high in elevation. The telemetry system went down in the first days, which meant that she couldn’t see what was happening on the system. Valves froze shut and had to be heat gunned. Residents’ busted pipes drained one of the system’s reservoirs. “A couple of our vehicles got stuck in the really powdery snow.” “Getting around the district has just been a nightmare,” she said. She and two other employees have been trying to keep the water on for Corbett residents. She said she couldn’t have imagined a more harrowing time than this.
