Behind the times

[Vapor]

AA used to be the cream of the crop, but now it's the cream of the xxxx.

Basically, it starts with the staff members and works it's way down. The ass kissing is unbearable and the framework lacks simple features that every 16 year old coder has in their cheats. Sums it up??

Helios has a system that works for him. This system let's him sit in the background and watch the money pour in as his staff members lick his crack and do all the dirty work.

His system consists of this:

1. Create a simple cheat (simple for him)
2. Let the staff do all the configs.
3. Let Doober make a really bad video before release.
4. Let rock kiss his ass and tell everyone how good this cheat is going to be.
5. Release the cheat.
6. Staff and trusted guys advertise and push the cheats on new members with really bad prices and the same features as the other 2000 cheats he supports.

^^^ This is what you see before a cheat is released. Pretty standard for AA.

The cheats work and do what they say they do. They are way over priced and lack simple features like in-game prediction settings. Want to set your prediction? Exit the game and change your bullet speeds in the configs. It's hit and miss and you might have to do it 20 times before you hit your sweet spot.
In game prediction should be standard on all cheats. If I have to exit the game to change the prediction .... FU.
**** list - You have to type everything in the console to enable the ****list and even type your enemies name < that's just gay. Also they don't have different colors for players on your ****list which is standard at every other cheat site.
That being said Helios almost always has the best no-spread bar none!! The no spread is deadly and cleans out servers fast. But, there is a swarm of other cheat sites now with deadly features and prices much, much lower. So why should you sub at AA instead of the other 300 sites?? ...simple, DON'T!!!

Many people don't just like to use the cheats. They like to be part of the community and watch the forums to see what's going on. This is where AA fails. They lose many long time customers to other sites because of it.

We all know about ass kissing at cheat sites, but AA wins the ass kissing award by a long shot. It gets to the point where it makes you sick to your stomach really. The back seat moderating is out of control - and no, this is not members helping members. At AA there is a legion of members that spam the forums constantly. This is due to them wanting to be "trusted" or even made to be a moderator. There are always 3 or 4 members that post in every thread regardless of the topic. If they post enough and prove themselves to be a worthy ass kisser then they are promoted to "Trusted". Soon after they stop posting because ....well..... they achieved their goal. It's pretty brutal and people can only take the ass kissing so much before they go elsewhere.

The staff constantly try to push the "Master Package" on people, even when people don't own all of the games or only play 1 or 2 games. You see this all the time and they don't give up on it.

There have been a number of staff changes over the years. Some good, most bad.
When it comes to the staff one thing remains the same. POWER TRIP. These guys love being staff members because for the fact that they have no life, they pledge their lives to Helios and enjoy hanging out with 12 year olds on IRC << This is the most disturbing part considering most of the staff are old as dirt.

Don't get me wrong, not all of them are dumb ****s. Magic and einbein being the best staff member AA has ever had by a long shot.

That being said, yes they are running a business and yes they are always trying to sell their cheats. But, unless you are one of the brainwashed members that don't think any other sites exist you will get sick of the bs very quickly.

Support

The support is decent. Just don't piss them off or back talk, you what comes next.

AA used to be the best site simply because they were one of the only sites with quality cheats around. Now you have choices, many choices. There are many quality coders out there with great staff members and friendly forums that won't

1. ban you because you told them something is broken.
2. be polluted with racist comments.
3. try to sell, sell, sell
4. spam you with ass kissing posts
5. post your personal info if you REALLY PISS THEM OFF (yes it has happened)

Why are they behind the times?? Because nothing has changed. Same prices, same staff, same features, same bull****. Even homeless people change their shirt once and a while.

Do yourself a favor and do some research before subscribing at a cheat site. You will be able to avoid the bs noted above.

Ok this post starts off with degrading HelioS’s bot being at the level that an amature coder could produce. That statement alone demonstrates you, Vapor, do not know much about HelioS’s work or about the level of respect and regard his work is held by many, if not most, of all the competitive coders who sell cheats. I doubt any coder that owns any site that sells cheats that actually knows the level of sophistication of HelioS’s work would agree with your statement. Despite the fact that between every hack selling site there is underlying competitive/proprietary information that is safeguarded – many of the COMPETING CODERS DO TALK about some aspects of higher level ideas and methods. NO they don’t spoon feed each other – but they do help one another on occasion out of respect. Were you aware of this Vapor????

You are free to not like our product at ArtificialAiming but don’t pretend to have appropriate knowledge to equate it to garbage code when in fact many, if not most, admire HelioS for what he’s accomplished. That is a Fact! Walk it off Vapor..walk it off.

Vapor, then you go on to complain about representatives of a business encouraging the purchase of its best overall package: the MasterPackage. You make it sound like ArtificialAiming is trying to pressure more money out of its customers any which way we can. The truth of the matter is this: ArtificialAiming is a software selling service company. We have tiered products in which for the most bang for the buck – the masterpackage works out to be the best product to dollar ratio for those that play multiple games. Nobody at ArtificialAiming forces members to upgrade or else etc. etc. (in which case you made up a scenario with "ban!" being the end result. That is outright defamation and unappreciated.)

So I ask you the question Vapor what’s wrong with people, who are staff doing a job to support and sell services, making sure each potential customer or customer that might want to upgrade be informed about the masterpackage? How is that wrong? It isn’t like you are finding a caste type system of support at ArtificialAiming where a subscriber with a 1 week radar purchase would have any less support than a 1 year masterpackage subscriber. Each of our customers are treated and helped equally – with respect, honesty and patience. With that said – I think you must have a very strange idea of how a successful business should be run. Would it be better for people to hear about the better overall package deals through hearsay rather than direct? That type of business scenario would create distrust and the feeling of favortism amongst any community that is invested.

Furthermore, your staged IRC quotes are misleading and obviously meant to falsely represent our service. I’m surprised the administrative staff would allow Hearsay?
Again, I’m not convinced this forum is an open and unbiased one.
I also find it interesting that earlier today the forum was throwing up errors that read: “
Fatal error: Class 'vB_Cache_Observer_Db' not found in /home/aimjunki/public_html/hackreviews_html/forums/vb/cache.php on line 131”

Yes, yes – I remember the admin mentioned he owned many, many sites. I guess mentioning a direct affiliation with one of the sites being ‘reviewed’ here would have been more professional. But can the admin(s) here please confirm that affiliation? Thanks

Ok and last, to respond to the above quote:
“Staff changes over the years. Some good, most bad.
When it comes to the staff one thing remains the same. POWER TRIP. These guys love being staff members because for the fact that they have no life, they pledge their lives to Helios and enjoy hanging out with 12 year olds on IRC << This is the most disturbing part considering most of the staff are old as dirt.”
Again, defamation, degradation and insultive. Yet – despite having to have posts “approved” – this type of rhetoric comes out to attack us. It’s very childish and sounds very angry. In fact, if you were in my area – I might treat you in my clinic.:) We actually do have lives outside of AA. The core of ArtificialAiming are very loyal, trustworthy, mature (you’re correct all of us do have real life professions and trades), and lastly believe in the outstanding standalone product that HelioS continues to produce, refine, and entice his thousands of happy customers with throughout the years. We really do have something great going on at ArtificialAiming – and I understand the position of those of you whom cannot partake in this might result in getting a bit angry about that. All’s I can say is treat us with honesty and respect and adhere to our rules – and we’d be glad to have you as our customer. SzecH

I will confirm that this site is owned by the Phoenix Digital Group. The same ownership group that owns AimJunkies and many other sites. This is a site that is by all accounts a NEUTRAL place where sites can advertise their product and see where their sites shortfalls are and their assets.This is a media outlet not a cheat site.

I do not know if you noticed your staff has posted advertising in here COUNTLESS times and it NEVER has not been posted. I dont know if you noticed the Aim Junkies re-review is one of the most scathing reviews on the site. I dont know if you noticed the re-review of AimJunkies their grade was downgraded from their first review. I dont know if you noticed but AJ and its other sites post the least in here of all active posting sites.

Our reviewers are not staff on ANY of our sites. They are independent contractors to do quality unbiased reviews at this site. HR_Reviewer and Judge were relieved of their positions because it was found their reviews to have bias in them.

I can open up the moderation but i really dont think you would want that. I remove **** in here that mother****s the hell out of your site and others including ours that simply is not in good taste. The review up above your post was edited by me to remove the degrading words about your site. The sad truth is your site has issues and no-one wants to face them there.

And if you feel im holding something back here Sezch your welcome to become an administrator here. You might find it is way more difficult to be unbiased than what you think. And my daily job here is to provide new users an opportunity to see the cheat sites in action thru this venue. And AA lately has gotten a ton of press in here. Maybe if you were on the inside you would look at this site much different. There is no conspiracy here......If we had anything to hide your post would have never seen the light of day.................Read the AimJunkies section before you post again.

Again i will repeat. This is a media site. It pains us when a unhappy subscriber post in here about our sites as much as it does yours. But we dont allow BS to go on here. So kiddies think twice about getting creative here.

[Vapor]

SzecH, you should read the post again. I did not degrade his aimbot at all. Actually, HelioS probably has the best aimbot around. I said the framework lacks a couple of simple features that every site has - AIMBOT PREDICTION -

My beef and everyone's beef is with the community. Everything stated above is true and has happened at one point or another. If anyone denies any of the things stated above they are full of ****. I hate ass kissing sites, I can't ****ing stand it. It's my personal opinion and if you can't handle it ohhhhhhh well. Many people feel the same, but they can't post this on your site or they get the Ban hammer.

HelioS remains an exellent coder, probably one of the best if not the best. However, I feel certain simple things get ignored that have been asked by the community for a long time. It prbably boils down to supporting too many pointless games.

Like I said, my beef is certainly not with HelioS, but with the community and the way staff deal with things. There are a lot more sites up and running now. It's time for attitudes to change.

You guys have no problem dishing it out, but you can't take any criticism at all. The moment someone says anything negative all hands are on deck defending your God. He's a coder for **** sakes. I often wonder if HelioS get's sick to his stomach listening to all the bs and ass kissing. Maybe he just laughs and says $$$$$$ .... I wouldn't blame him I guess.

Nothing posted above is meant to offend anyone. It's just how I feel about the way things are run and the overall feel of the community. If HelioS were more active on the forums it would help a lot. Someone like x22 is much more active on his forums and his site doesn't have half of the problems AA does. It would let people know that HelioS is human and doesn't just sit in the background. It would also stop his staff from portraying him as a God which he is not.

HelioS is an awesome coder, nothing more, nothing less.

I'll also note that those quotes are not direct quotes, they are just examples of how you can get banned for back talking the staff. One staff member in particular has banned members for far less then that.
Ohh and about your defamation, degradation and insultive comment. Are you serious??? Have you not seen defamation, degradation and insultive comments made by your staff members? Open your eyes ffs. Things that happened in the past don't just go away when you still have the people responsible looking after the site. Just another example of how you can dish it, but can't take it.

[geribaldiAA]

Szech says that you are not staff at AA and are not recognized as staff in here by your color. Yet you speak in here and other sites like you are staff. Please clarify your position at AA so we can put your comments in the right context and your Nic in the right usergroup. Otherwise you will be in the fanboy of AA category.



I dont need a color or usergroup here if i want to clarify some things, wrong things you and other´s wrote here. Like Szech said, im not a staff member, but i am the ubermod;) of german aa section, i am trusted Member, Tester, Supporter, Coworker, goofer or whatever you want. Last but not least i´m already one of the biggest Fanboys of AA.NET. Feel free to put me in the Usergroup you want or put me in both groups.


We have not many rules, and everone is welcome on aa who dont brake them. Our Staff didnt understand fun if anyone tryed to scam us and you can be sure if you got banned, you did something wrong with intentional. No other Site can handle so many members without enforce our rules, sometimes with hard words....

Alright Vapor here you go: Apparently you haven't used the ArtificialAiming product long or you just didnt take the time to learn how to use it? Regarding Aimbot prediction - we have multiple levels of refinement built into our cadillac bot with adjustable ping correction, bulletspeed, bulletdrop, and FPS correction all correspond to "AIMBOT PREDICTION" (and accuracy). Regarding NONLinear opponent movement, this can and has been done in the past as short term gifts to our members with such features as massmurder, teleporting the enemy/ entire enemy team etc etc. We don't leave those types of mass killage options on due to the obvious eventual result which would be a complete game ender. Nobody wants that - not the customers nor the cheat service provider.

Also Vapor - in a unbiased forum where potential customers might be looking for honest reviews, and contacting representatives of the product (staff/mods), are seeing slanderous hearsay - that is different than a post with direct quotes to back up the slander. Do you see my point? I don't have a problem with a disgruntled person posting something negative about artificialaiming IF it's a true statement. When you use quotes in a statement - that infers that those are exact words or an exact scenario that took place. In the example above, posted by you, it was a fabricated scenario rather than a statement of actual events. THAT is where I have the issue. This equates to hearsay which is poisonous and cannot be defended against because fabrications aren't reasonable to discuss.

Regarding your personal issue with our members holding HelioS in high regard - I really don't know what to say about that. I"m sorry that these folks choose to thank, defend, and are very happy with his product and service and that they are very vocal about it. I can assure you - we do NOT TELL or even SUGGEST our members do that. They do that with their own free will. I guess when you are really satisfied with your purchase and continue to obtain great experiences with it - some choose to rant and rave about it. lol. There really isnt' anything more to say about it. It's their choice - they enjoy sharing with the world the appreciation they have with HelioS's cadillac bots and service. With that said, we don't have any issue with you not liking that. I thought I'd address it though because I thought it was sort of ridiculous to complain about others being happy about a product.


Admin: sure feel free to upgrade my status to Admin to allow unfiltered posts through. However, I will stick to the rules posted on this site regarding keeping things peaceful. I encourage all to give honest reviews but do so with TACT and if you have claims against a company or rep of that company - have proof to support your claim or it will be pruned. Hearsay is garbage. Peace SzecH

[Vapor]

I don't know SzecH. It's almost like you can't read. To adjust your bullet speeds/bullet drop you have to exit the game and configure them in the config files. YOU CAN'T DO IT IN GAME!!!! Are you sure you have have ever used the framework?

I already explained those quotes as being examples. I'm sorry I didn't take snapshots of every incident that has happened at AA. If I did I can assure you I would need weeks to post all of it.

Members holding a coder in high regard is normal at cheat sites. It's when the staff members like yourself do it .......it gets a little ridiculous and sickening.

I've heard enough about slanderous/insultive comments from you. It's what AA has been doing for years, but yet you can't take a little yourself?

It's pretty obvious you are a new mod at AA and haven't been very active in the past (idle Trusted member) because you don't have a clue really. The fact that you defend this tells me all I need to know.

That being said - This is my review/thoughts about AA. Deal with it. If you don't like it, don't read it. END OF STORY.

[Vapor]

I agree that the quotes may have been bad examples (although not far off) so I removed them.

*Note* These views are my own. I'm not a staff member here at Hack reviews. This is how I feel about AA.

If AA had more staff members like SzecH I'd say AA would be better off. The staff at AA need to be purged. Not because they are bad people, but because it's been like this since the beginning. One staff member pretty much ruined it for eveyone. Why he is still there I have no idea.

You can do that, otherwise testing the cheat would be a huge amount of work.
