I don't even know if I believe it anymore. I don't know if it's a hoax to scare players. I think there's a chance I reported an innocent person, who knows. If I did then I'm gonna feel pretty awful.... I just wish that this community would die down about the topic. Almost every player knows what to do if they see this hacker, and the chances of actually coming across them is 1 in a million. And not to mention the fact that we also know that Splatfest resets the Plaza. Also....I've noticed that if you don't play in a while, then start the game back up, the people you last played don't really seem to appear in the plaza. And...there's no video evidence that I'm aware of. I mean if I were to come across a person playing as an Octoling and using an unreleased weapon, I would've recorded it, with my phone. The quality doesn't have to be perfect, but just SOME evidence because the only thing we got are people's word. I won't post about this issue anymore unless I meet this hacker in battle. Okay. Stay safe, be careful, and don't jump to conclusions, Inklings! (If you don't know about what's going on, look through the "Splatoon hacker" tag)

I’m not exactly sure how to answer some of the concerns regarding the Splatoon hackery and the last thing I want to do is unknowingly mislead people, so here is the thread where you can find all of the information I’m giving you. These people seem to know a lot more than I do regarding this, so if you’re still concerned give this a quick read!

Yes, or shutting down your system might possibly work.

Hm, from my knowledge I think that would work as well. The only problem is I believe if you played multiple consecutive matches before the hackers your progress will be lost.

When you don’t see the player’s name anymore in the team listings, that is when they’ve quit and it’s safe to exit the game. As far as I know you’re stuck with them till they quit.
