Quoted from Skyride

[…]

It’s a joke because at the end of the day, it’s just a game. He never even had the opportunity to cheat when money was on the line. Sure he made a dumb mistake, but he’s been banned for nearly half the time this game has actually existed.

‘its just a game’
so using a real life example, if you would be playing backyard football with a couple of friends it would be ok for one to be allowed to use his hands outside of the penalty zone =s?

Yeah, because there surely wasn’t any money in the ESL EMS he got caught in, and in the previous ESL EMS he cheated in.

When 1 of 2 things happen, either;

1) the game is too costly to keep getting new copies and hacks for, and the hacker leaves permanently, ie: not TF2 even before F2P

or 2) the hacker just comes back under a different name with/without hacks (usually with since if he gets found out at all he will be banned again)

then tell them to play properly or fuck off – this is the difference in ‘RL’, it works. Strangely enough ‘real life’ != online. Amazing concept i know

Amazing argument. because a cheater can come back, why bother banning him?! this is beyond stupid and doesnt need addressing

for the 2nd – this is exactly what has happened, he has been told to fuck off and, continuing the rl example, got a beating and had a restraining order to not get closer than a km to the field :D strangely enough, online = rl + anonymosity. amazing concept, I know

didn’t really intend this to turn into some kind of flame war, im fully aware that i cheated and was also fully aware of the consequences, not at one point did i complain or go around making some petition to get me unbanned, if u cant do the time dont do the crimeetcetc this should be a happy moment in e-sports (for me atleast) so shutup and rejoice o/

Someone buy this man a cake, he deserves it.

Pretty simple, if you can’t do the time then don’t do the crime.

He’s done the time, now by right he’s back and it’s justified in accordance with this league.

The end.

As to how long the ban ppl think it should be i.e. 3months – perm is irrelevant to all of you but the ETF2L admins, their judgement on length of bans is usually (note: I said ‘usually’) fair.

I’m pretty sure you offered me several kilos of meth in return for a ‘free boomeh’ campaign
