Devs must love cheaters

[Vaiseri]

I got a warning on the forums because I "disrespected" An obvious cheater account..?

Seems being offended is so much more important than fixing the game..?

Wouldn't suprise me if this gets taken down as well...Mark my words.

[Nicoliolio]

I mean, the rules still appky

[Vaiseri]

Agreed...but cheaters shouldn't be allowed to cheat either, :)

Cheating? = ya get what you ♥♥♥♥♥♥' deserve Murray!

[Duffmek]

yeah we cant 'name and shame' in case we are wrong while the cheaters do their 'thing' daily .. weekly or longer and get bugger all reprimand its usually the same in any online game nowadays :(

Cheating is basically the act of breaking established rules to gain unfair advantage.
Disrespecting someone in the forums is also breaking the established rules....you do understand that you're basically putting yourself on their level, right?

im 100% sure that was not wildcard it was a unpaid mod on their forums. Wildcard is about the most worthless company for direct communication on the planet.

Well if you think cheating and telling someone to "stfu" about lying about incorrect bans are similar and just as bad as each other...you're quite wrong...also...have you played ark..the game is toxic as can be.

"Degree" of infraction isn't really the point. The point is that both are acts of violating established social guidelines. You are guilty , they are guilty, it's hardly important which one of you is "worse" when you're both bad.

You are only contributing to the toxicity. The fact that you also don't seem to understand that makes you worse, btw. (not worse than the cheaters, just worse than if you did at least grasp what was wrong with your own behaviour)

If you're so easily offended by "stfu" then you seriously need to not be on the internet in the first place lmao.

Personally, I'm not offended at all.

THis isn't about me personally, it's about you and your inability to follow social media standards on the platform in general and also your inability to follow the fact that you can't grasp that your own belief that "the rules don't apply to you" is no different than the cheater's who basically believe the SAME damn thing, just about different rules.

You basically believe that you alone have the high ground to decide which rules matter, and which don't. Guess what, so do the cheaters.

I wouldn't go and be rude to you or anyone who isn't a cheater...Simple...

You choose to cheat you deserve everything you get. Not a shred of decency to be expected.

Don't you see though, people who cheat in a multiplayer game usually engage in similar mental gymnastics to justify why the cheat. Rationalizing your behaviour, which violates established social guidelines, doesn't make the behaviour acceptable.

At the end of the day, you believe you are above the established standards and somehow that makes what you're doing "okay", again, so do they.

Ultimately you don't have the authority to be the "judge and jury" regarding who is a cheater or not in a forum owned and operated by someone other than you. Making your belief that it's "okay to be rude" to someone who YOU believe is a cheater a flawed belief.

You can accept that or not, but it is simple truth.

You can continue to rant as well. Do you believe the devs should be stopping people from typing...or instead doing something more productive for the people who play the game...optimising...fixing...and stopping meshing...cheats..?

> That's what p.isses me off. I don't believe I am above any rule, ban me from the forum, warn me but it's annoying that they dont talk to their players and the only thing they do...in delete peoples comments on a forum.

Devs don't function as forum moderators. So your statement is based on a completely flawed premise.

You're behaving like the people who yell at the waitress when their food has something wrong with it...as if she was the one who prepared it.

A "dev" doesn't mean what you think it means. It doesn't mean "every employee at a development studio". It's not the people who develop the game, fix the glitches, etc. who moderate forums. Thus, they are not devs.

You're also wrong that "every dev team" has people who moderate the forums even on payroll. Very often with smaller studios it's a volunteer moderator who isn't even an employee nor paid.
Edit: and some don't bother to moderate their forums at all.
