I will drop this topic one day, honest :p
Name me some banned players we wouldn't want to see at LAN.
who cares if they are cheaters
they arnt gnna cheat @lan lol
practically: i dont think the ever shirnking community has another choice.
cheat is cheat no matter in which situation.
you have proven that you are not a real player but a sad little fuck that needs "an unfair advantage". at that point you should be banned for life.
Banning people for a year is more than enough for a non-serious offence such as cheating on a public or in a prac. Banning for life should only be considered when dealing with cases that involve any major leagues (i.e. someone cheats in ECfinal), and in those cases they should only be banned for life from that particular competition, and for a year from the others. Ambiguous cases should only be punished for half a year maximum, if at all.
It's not like this small community has any choice anyways. But even if this community was larger, I would still say the same.
you dont rape a woman to see what the fuzz is all about.
in the realm of gaming cheating is the worst you can do and you should be punished for it, no matter of long and which situations you cheated.
you are one of the people who can not grasp that cheating should be treated as a serious offense simply because you have been confronted with it too much by this rotten community.
every single time you try to distinguish how severe of a case you are facing you give ground to the cheaters and "motivate" little kids to try it.
And yeah, I've seen a lot of cheating in this game. Sure, it's kinda dull to see someone so very obviously cheat against you, but what can you do? It's not like banning them will stop anything in a free game (or well, even if the game cost money, banning them wouldn't stop them), and it won't be an immediate action so the negative experience will still be there. And as said, bans won't stop them from playing pracs (..or offis for that matter).
SLAC has this done correct, when you cheat, you're banned for one year. If you cheat after you're unbanned, you're going to be banned for one year again. You're also not allowed to have multiple accounts and it's enforced pretty well from what I've gathered. I'm glad none of that senseless Clanbase C&A crap got into their policies.
Fighting cheaters by throwing absolutely atrocious punishments onto the table is like trying to fight internet piracy by censorship - honest people are affected more than the targeted group.
It's a morale vs. absolute justice type of thing (I can't remember the fancy philosophical term for this). Your opinion represents the latter group.
"what can you do?" you ask. well the first step would be to make people scared to cheat instead of just motivating cause even if they get busted they jsut serve a short ban and things are as if nothing ever happend.
do you oppose the death penalty irl for major crimes?
Besides, your average ETPlayer is already "scared" to cheat because they don't want to ruin their e-fame, but there's always the handful of folk who just don't care, and there's nothing that can be done about it. Lengthening the bans will just make it awful for the ones who actually are wrongly banned, and trust me, there's a plenty of such cases.
And yes, I do oppose death penalty in real life. Sure, triple homicides are an awful thing, but it's not like taking one more life will really make anyone feel better.
and dont oppose death penalty, not because i think it will make anyone feel better but because i think that "second chances" have to be limited. and that there are too many fucked up people out there
i know that some people, especially chosen, have banned people for cheating simply because they personally got pwnd. i would not allow demo busts and stuff like that. but if an objective AC finds a running cheat you should be punished.
obviously those are things you can not consider equal by equal standarts.
rape is one of the most serious crimes in real life.
but i dont see it getting worse than cheating when talking about "that life".
no matter how serious you are about the game, the moment you resort to cheats, for whatever reason, disqualifies you competetive play... imo. and that is what we are talking about afterall. a CB ban does not keep you from playing pubs (or scrims with another name).
i know "esports" is "fun and games" but if you dedicate your time to it and put in some effort i dont see a reason not to despise the people who "troll you"(like he said) with something that coasts as much a month as a couple of beers.
A normal happy guy won't ever think of cheating.
Hacking ONE time in any situation should be a PERMANENT ban. I don't see a difference if its playing on public server or nations cup final, a cheater is a cheater and should be removed from the game cause I think it has been showned already that they will cheat again and again.
Have you considered a career as a law enforcer, by the way?
so whats the problem :\
