Overview[]
Anti-Kick is an infamous hack that made itself known in 2009.
As the name implies, a player with Anti-Kick cannot be kicked from a room through conventional means. Even if the entire room votes to kick the person, it will not affect them in any way; in some V.I.P Hack programs, this also extends to servers with an Elite or Super Elite Moderator present.
This is considered to be one of the most persistant issues in the game, as hackers can continue to do as they please without (immediate) consequence.
Overriding[]
Some forms of Anti-Kick can be "overloaded" by repeatedly attempting to kick the hacker, though recent versions of the hack have made such a feat either more difficult or outright impossible depending on the program.
On the other hand, most forms of Anti-Kick are only resistant to Vote Kicks as opposed to Elite Moderator kicks, or vice-versa, so the opposite method is favorable in such cases.
On occassion, the only feasible way to combat this hack is with another known as Hostile Kick.
Comebacks[]
Anti-Kick has supposedly been rendered obsolete several times, but it has always made a comeback regardless.
The first such fix was through the 2-3-10 Patch.
- It made a return after the 4-11-2011 Patch.
- As well as the 6-15-2012 Patch.
- As of the 6-30-2015 Patch it is back again.
Trivia[]
- The current version removes the hacker from the list of players to kick. It has also been known to remove the hacker's rank icon.
- A version of Anti-Kick is ineffective against Elite Moderators, but highly-effective in any normal room. Near the end of the game, the player using anti-kick will be spammed with " YOU CANNOT KICK A PLAYER WHEN THE GAME IS ABOUT TO END!" (only visible to the player using the hack) and when it is a One Man Army or Last Man Standing it will say "Kicking is not permitted as there are no teammates to kick." This makes chatting extremely difficult as the screen is filled with the red text and whenever the person types the text quickly disappears within the wave of red text.
- A common side-effect when someone has Anti-Kick on is that no one in the room can be kicked so other players are falsely accused of hacking.

Reporting Hackers[]
Every hacker should be reported, however make sure you are 100% sure that he/she is hacking before reporting. Helping a hacker or benefiting from a hacker is against Nexon's Terms of Service and is one way to get suspended and possibly banned from the game.
