I know for a fact Deca has a lot more control and information over players, like what's in their vaults or character stats and even have the ability to change them. (I recently had a stat on my character changed by the support team after contacting them) Exalt itself as a platform allows them to have better ways of detecting any forms of tampering too, at least from what a more knowedgeable friend of mine told me.
I'm not really sure what Deca meant by "People who did O3" because that seems kind of an arbitrary line to draw when it comes to a ban wave. I haven't personally looked into it, but I think the people they managed to catch were ones that used 059's Flash client at O3, don't know about the rest.
On the last 059client thread I posted something about a file I found in the game folder, called eklog.txt that confirms the detection of proxy injection. I asked about it here, but nobody has said anything about whether if it's the hacked client or the Exalt client writing that file. Can't test it of myself either, because the currently outdated Exaltmultitool fails to even inject.
So yeah, Deca could probably be collecting data about players caught with proxy injectors, mule accounts and whatever else so they can get at them later. And while I do believe it's possible to bypass any possible future anticheat system, there's going to be some banwaves along the way. Hell, Deca could very well know I'm cheating too, although I only use the Autoloot HP/MP pots option and disabling player/pet sprites for performance, and give me the boot later down the line. Even if they don't ban players that hack right now, because of the generally low concurrent player count, they're obviously trying to get the game to the point where banning hackers that buy gold isn't going to affect them too much.
