Who is Paralon, shutting down lobbies?

When he joins the lobby it wents down. Is he hackerman? I found old forum posts where a player named paralon ist listed for tournaments. He does that all the time, joining lobbies and they going down.

Not the same person. Hacker just picks names of well known russian players and uses their nicknames while ruining lobbies.

So this is what's going on. FAF is under attack because Russians like the game.

Looks like he is at it again.

Set a password to your lobby, put it in the title. Seems to keep him out, indicating it's a bot rather than a person actively doing it.

I've also encoutered this dirtbag and the lobby seemed to have multiple issues then died

When it happens ping the moderators on FAF discord (@Moderator) as if one of us is available we can then kick them and ban the account in question (providing a temporary reprieve).
