VOLUNTARY REGISTERED = STOPS ALL CHEATERS ON ALL ONLINE GAMES WORKING TOGETHER

[77-TIME]

All Cheaters eventually get caught.

The Problem.

Online Games do not track who the cheater is on a master cheater list all games can look at.

OPTIONAL Registering would stop all cheaters. Stop Smurfs, and Give New Players real help.

All Online Games could OFFER a REGISTERED area of play.
You REGISTER AND THEN CHEAT. YOU no longer have access to Registered Online Area for ALL games that SHARE the REGISTERED CHEATER LIST!

IF TRURSTED, and PRIME are ENOUGH for YOU. So Be It. But not for me.

Always OPTIONAL. Never Required. But for the benefits of it. You might want to.

how does steam verify the person registering is using their real information?
some accounts being used to cheat are stolen or compromised accounts. how does your idea handle this issue
some countries have laws that restrict what information you can ask for. how does your idea address this issue

[Mad Scientist]

You know most cheaters just have throw-away accounts or have hijacked accounts, right?

Typically they use it to cheat for one specific game, so, their ID is already banned by that game. Smurfing is also punishable depending on the game, and some games have been banning people for trying to smurf.

Most countries don't allow this. There is also the COPPA laws that Microsoft was fined for.

didnt even bother to try and address any of the concerns or issues brought up.

They're not allowed to track me in such a way. Valve isn't even allowed to ask for my ID.

Just like Faceit Verified. And how I log into my Ebenefits on .gov

ID.me

Other Identity Verification at walmart, or a Steam Verified Identity Player Card / VIP Card

This is a gaming platform for ages 13 and up. COPPA applies here.

The Main Point is. All games could use the Verified Registered Cheaters List it would create.

All Cheaters Eventually get caught.

AI can find out other cheaters by analyzing your games and who you played with in the Verified / Registered area.

You could register MORE than your Identity. Your PC parts, Your Other Games Online.

MW3, and CS2, and all other games could use this TOGETHER!

Privacy laws are another reason why it isn't a thing.

Remember, This would be OPTIONAL. and All Adults COULD register their Children with them also. Have a Kids Access Verification Linked to YOUR Identity, and notify YOU of any bad things from your Kid Doing.

Privacy laws prevent this, even if it were "optional."

You are wanting a surveillance state for video games.

Not only is that illegal in many places, it is also highly immoral.

LAWS are not OPTIONAL, you either follow them or get dragged into court and pay fines.

if the law says you cant ask for A, then you simply cannot ask for A.

if you want your idea to be possible, take it up with the various governments and lawmakers. until they pass laws that allow you to ask for A, your idea is not happening

I REFUSE TO HAVE GOOD GAMES HELD HOSTAGE BY CHEATERS.

DO IT OR GAMING IS DEAD>

Then don't play multiplayer games.

I refuse to have corporations get my ID and thankfully the laws agree with me on that.

In South-Korea cheating is against the law and even there cheating remains a problem.
