pointless due to the devs neglection of the issue, yes indeed.

[Bwoah]

Does by speaking means you also posted links to other people profiles and accused them of cheating?

No, all I did was state there is a cheating epidemic in this game.

I watched some FPL s4 today and one guy looked...sus

Which made me sad. I kept wondering why he would take his knife out with no map control when it was midround and locations unknown...he got caught out with nades, and jiggled a corner with a flash out. What is the purpose of jiggling a corner with a flash? That mechanic is reserved for reactionary utility, like a smoke, molly, or nade...not a flash. Flash is for peeking why would that be thrown at an enemy already in front of you? Idk....dude was either nervous asf or not very good.

Longer you play the more you will notice these inconsistencies, yes sometimes its jus chance & the way it is, majority of the time tho theres something more ill at play

It seemed like the guy knew areas were clear without checking them. I'd look at the minimap and I would be listening to comms, and either them or someone else was calling out info on the location of the enemy before they would hear them. It was weird. They played anubis and ancient. On ancient the team comm'd "they're rushing A" or something when they were on a B stack and they just got there, waiting maybe 3 seconds and not checking mid 2 b, bottom ramp, or cave. yes one mid player but on this comm the T's went into A main only and the mid player no way they heard them. They comm'd it and *then* the T's started running within earshot, not after.

Their utility was also weird. They threw smokes on anubis that benefited the T's more than them or their team on CT. They would also go out in front without their gun out, with no map control, trying to throw nades. At one point they're entering A from A main as T's, and he pulls a flash out right after getting a frag onto the guy holding A main. He is the player in front, he hasn't cleared waterfall, behind pillar, cake, heaven, tarp, broken, plat, or cams but decided it was the best time to pull out a flash whilst exposed to like 75% of these angles. Another CT swings and trades him out....they also would give up either A or mid as CT really early, or rotate to A on a slow timing to get to default positions. So sometimes they seemed to die in a way that shouldn't happen to someone at that skill level. I mean, I sometimes get caught out with nades, knife, or I reload too early, which I see closet cheaters doing to make themselves seem "legit". Also one round he had an AK and he had the awper go out first. The rifler can check corners faster and is essentially baiting out enemy for the awper. Idk why they would have their awper go out first, trying to push A main from A to canals.

Of course...they die. Not a shock. Guy keeps going into canals from A main, looks up at rugs for half a second, never checking ninja, and ignores dark cubby, rounds a ton of corners going from stairs to mid. Half of this is done before all info should be gathered.

Should I start adapting this playstyle behavior? I used to have too bad of a habit with this, and I'm working on trying to not do it, since it got me killed....

...apparently it can get people to level 10 and FPL tournaments. I had no idea.

I guess its easier life for them to supress the issue instead of dealing with it. This will result in a tipping point & things will get ugly.

It did gave me some entertainment, so it is not pointless.🤦‍♂️

I do agree your comment really doesn't add much to any conversation even with context, but it does seem like a very silly thing to get a warning over. I've seen people not get banned for worse.

However, coming to forums to discuss your ban/warning is a good way to upgrade the warning to a ban... Mods will tell you forums is not a place to discuss your past bans or warnings.

If you have a problem with your ban/warning you should either try debating it on the specific page, or going to support directly. Good luck.

We're locking this thread as it has devolved into non-productive fun. Thanks for your understanding."

The FBI moderation does this all the time. Fun is outlawed. I think you understand who sits in the top of the country and controls it.

Isn't discussing specific bans/warnings against the guidelines?

You are correct. It's not allowed. Especially in CS2 forums where this has nothing to do with the game. You could probably discuss the rules in off topic or Steam Discussions area but never your bans/warnings specifically.

They have a comment box on the warning/ban page to discuss there or just going to support directly via the help option of Steam launcher.

You won't get such warning if you followed the rules, guidelines of steam.
