More specifically, the software relates to videogames and the system provides event scripts that selectively, dynamically, and quickly change the players gaming experience and particularly related to multiplayer gaming.

System and method for network gaming architecture

Disclosed are systems and methods for online community management. The disclosed system allows for automatic identification and punishment of players exhibiting bad sportsmanship through a combination of automatic detection schemes and a peer reporting scheme. In addition to the sportsmanship check, the disclosed system also provides automatic checks for identifying potential cheaters and generating a potential cheaters list for review by admin staff. As a result of either classification system, players found to be either bad sports or cheaters are not allowed to participate in play with the general pool of players, but instead must play in an alternate pool. For extremely harmful conduct, players may be banned from the online community.
