B is for Bans

Date July 25, 2010

Traditionally ETF2L have always announced new bans on Sundays. Whilst we briefly considered a shock Saturday switch, the traditional approach struck us as far more appealing.

The following four people find themselves banned from all ETF2L competitions for the period of 1 year from today. In addition to this, in accordance with our reformed stance on bans they will also receive a forum ban for the full duration.

1) reactioN – After sharing some hilarious YouTube footage where he was instantly questioned by many members of the TF2 community, reactioN was kind enough to share some demos with us. Sadly, these and subsequent demos show him to be aimbotting like a boss and thus he is being cast far away from the league.

2) playa – Many of you have seen a certain YouTube video over the last week where playa had the mouse turning circle skills of a super hungry cat chasing two fat mice. For those of you haven’t seen it click me and enjoy! Unsurprisingly our new aimbot hero playa is a good friend of phytek, the fake American who got himself banned for aimbotting not too long ago. The above video and subsequent demos of playa proved he was aimbotting and we can look forward to seeing his beautiful face again next summer.

3) bjornbar – This one is quite amusing. bjornbar or bbberrry was quite noticeably looking through walls to gain an advantage over his enemy. After obtaining his POV demo (directly from him), there was a near-instantaneous AC Admin decision which led to a ban. Goodbye my Russian friend, I’m sorry I couldn’t save you from your fate this time (((((

Edit: Since this newspost was announced, bon appears to have made a wonderful YouTube video about bjornbar. I think you might like it! (For the people that don’t understand or lack common sense, this video has been linked because it was in the public domain and was amusing. It has nothing to do with the AC team releasing any evidence.)

4) GAW – Not really a lot to say here. He was speedhacking, that’s about it.

That’s all for now folks!

See you for another Sunday ban post…soon!

    He cheated. It was proven. He has been banned.

    Simple as that :)

    The only rage will come from the uninformed, the unintelligent or the unlucky few who are duped by a player who cheats, into believing that he’s genuine.

  41. tack: kp/ said:

    i got a boner reading this, i’m not in, maybe etf2l ac admins have grown up, or maybe i will be in next sunday, dunno, can’t say if you have right, so great job if you think you made it right, or fuck you if you made it bad ( obviously you made it right for you, i know, if you didn’t you wouldn’t ban them :) cheer )

    Can you please announce bans like that ^, instead of doing a boring listing like you do usually? :D

  52. Mendietaaaa: TBNC said:

    rofl at reaction, this guy insulted payard when he merced for us, such an hipocrit

    D is for D2M, woo!

  54. WiLL said:

    Where are the cheater videos from reaction on youtube? oh wait. all deleted?!

  55. quad said:

    ac section should have alot more admins imo.

    2 people + head admins is not enough.. srsly.

    Or pick something from the suggestions to ac thread

    What you see on the Staff page for the AC Admins may not be as clear as you imagine it to be ;)

    There are some very good reasons why we will not show all of the AC admins who work for us on that page.

    Get used to the fact that there are more AC Admins than you are ever going to know about. They’re around you, amongst you, when you cheat – we’ll know about it :)

  57. karit said:

    Should I be scared?

  58. D2M: vertex » - derptex9 said:

    Only if you cheat :)

  59. quad said:

    thanks d2m for clearing that up, was just curious.

    How many to be exact?

  64. Hildreth: Bully - Pander said:

    Playa’s video was so not hacks, for the AC team to think it was hacks just proves they can’t spot a cheater.

    I mean the way he turned within 0.1 second and shot everyone, anyone can do that :D

    Edit by D2M: Don’t stand on Badlands balcony staring through the wall against anyone, especially not people who can spot what you’re doing a mile away ))

  93. war: GlueEater said:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UcNlXxnrMk

    tbh it was obvious from this video alone that he did, even when he saw the scout hide around the side it was like “DONT LOOK THROUGH THAT WALL, JUST TRACK AROUND IT, SLOW AND STEAD PLAYA NOW, U R PR0!!!111”

  94. irfy: EPA said:

    It will be good to make the banned players unable to post some bullshit in comments.

  95. WiLL said:

    lulz

  96. Imperium said:

    so björnbär, what were you actually doing staring into a wall? :D and how could you know how far away he was when he wasn’t looking at you yet unless you could see him through the wall :D?

    http://www.wantedgov.it/chiacchiere-in-liberta-news-dal-web/motherfuckers/
    not sure why this took so long for etf2l to ban him, but in the end they did it even if they didn’t mention wallhacking among his very special abilities :)

    You have really just opened the doors for a lot of questions really.

  124. fe said:

    some proofs, finally.

  125. D2M: vertex » - derptex9 said:

    We didn’t post any evidence and we didn’t release any evidence.

    I linked a video in the public domain involving a player that was banned.

    Get your facts straight please :)
