Post Unbanned Cheaters' Accounts

over 10 years

When players who were banned for cheating are let back into either of the competition-running lobbies, they should undergo a probationary period during which they lose privacy rights for all accounts, be they linked alts or clean-slate mains. The mods can set up a thread with a list of all accounts held by recently unbanned cheaters and either (a) consistently monitor users who have made the list or (b) install a simple account approval process whereby failure to inform the mods of newly registered accounts constitutes a violation of the rules.

This might be worth a go for any game-related ban, not just cheating, but that would probably involve a lot more maintenance.

but only people who straight up cheated, if you knew someone was throwing for you and continued to run anyways that's not cheating

How long have I been absent from what's been going on? Last I remember, we were still banning all of petri's accounts.

One time, when harassment violations first started being a thing, GaryOak gave me a violation for linking to Bohemian Rhapsody on some idiot's wall and giving a brief synopsis of what the song's about.

This is somehow worse.

Dude, you are losing your touch and it makes me sad. You can't even get a response these days

How sad are you, Empire? Harass a poor kid online and then whine to mommy when you're told not to? Grow up.

He explicitly said he unblocked her to read her posts, and then made posts about her insulting/harassing her.


One I unblocked and said so in my reply, the other I only unblocked to read after I got the vio.

it's pretty contradictory to say "you have her blocked" and "stop harassing her" when empire has no idea what petri's responses actually are, because he has her blocked. saying lmao isn't worth a violation, and you know that, but you don't really need to appease petri, especially considering harassment is a pretty harsh violation.

just imo

Understandable. Community violations are a different animal. The only thing I can counter with is the fact that, just because a user feels harassed, a violation doesn't necessarily have to follow. Else you'd be dishing out a ton of violations for "well HE CALLED ME STUPID in TWO different games now, and this is HARRASMENT".

Pete was right in that it establishes a bit of a weird precedent, especially given the history of the "harassed" user at hand, though I realize that shouldn't really matter


I agree. That's why I warned Empire first and told him to leave her alone. He didn't, so he got the violation. I don't see this as a precedent establishing report considering he was warned and continued to harass her anyway. The report had a delay in coming out because I wasn't the one who made the screenshots to file it, so that's why the timing is weird and why it looks like he's getting a vio for saying "lmao".

Well I mean, now I'm actually going to harass them so it doesn't really matter.
