I got accused of hacks once by someone who had nothing, I killed him with block hits for the lols, then, about 15 deaths later, I die and he says, "Inc, you f------ c--- of a hacker!"
Me, "How?"
Him, "You killed me even though I got more hits on you."
Me, "Facesword."
Him, "I'm reporting you."
Mod steps in, "A sword does more damage than a fist."
Him, "No it doesn't!"
Story of the day.

Dude... I feel your pain man, I was banned a week ago for "better sprint", though I wasn't actually hacking. People call me out for hacking all the time, it's kinda fun sometimes but getting banned is kinda annoying. The ban's about to expire so I'm not really that mad anymore but still, it kinda sucks.

purewelshboy, one of the moderators, has actually kicked me from a game that I was going to win for "suspicion of hacking" and had no actual proof other then me killing him. Where was his footage? He could of easily banned me when in an actual fact I just beat him at PVP.
If he would have banned you, you could have posted a ban dispute and would have won.

The chances of someone getting banned unfairly are very low. I'd seen very few of those when I was a mod...

While it is entirely possible, the users claiming you hack would have nothing to do with it if it did. They can get all the evidence they want, but if you don't hack, the evidence proves absolutely nothing. Many people (many, not all.) who claim they were unfairly banned at some point were lying and were trying to cover up the ban so others don't look down on them.

We all get accused of hacking every now and then...some of us all the time even. Before I got mod, the amount hackusations I got was pretty insane. Did I care? Well, I did when they started harassing me by following me into my games, doing things similar to what one of the guys above had happen to him: http://imgur.com/a/bEGfe This was followed by them forming a giant team to hunt me down. The thing is, actions like these (harassing a user) can get you in trouble now - if a thing like this ever happens to you, don't be afraid to take screenshots and report them. Other than that...a simply accusation means nothing, and their "I have evidence" threats will get them nowhere. Simply laugh it off and ignore it. Thinking and worrying about it will only ruin your experience.

Amen to that!
