Players banned for cheating.

@IrishFist412_MLBTS or we may end up seeing the streamers dirty secrets. Works both ways. 80x flawless i for one would like to know if he is really that good or if there is something else going on. And a 365 day ban tells me something else is going on.

@sbchamps17_NSW Good…This will force SDS to pull back the curtain in court. Then we will ALL finally get to see how the sausage is made. If SDS wants to keep their dirty secrets then they’ll settle.
If it makes it that far, violation of ToS is pretty clear cut ,don't see how you can argue around that, I don't have any info of this but I'm guessing it's a loss of income thing, first thing any lawyer would say is there are other games....
They probably will pursue it anyway but I don't think there is a case here. -
Streamers get catered to like crazy. It's nice to see one get banned. HOWEVER, I don't really understand banning someone for 365 days for matching up with a bot and doing what every one of us would probably do: exploit it and get what we can out of it. Unless of course there is something else we don't know.

@SpawnOfDitka_XBL 100% more than a singular bot boost game.

The only way I can think to truly exploit it is to purposefully keep the game going by walking in runs to avoid the mercy rule and run up the stats and PXP. That would be pretty easy to check. Shoot, SDS could even have a system that automatically flags any online game that scores over a certain amount of runs or flags games that score a certain amount of runs and goes past the 4th inning.
In those cases game logs are a thing. All they have to do is check and see if the player has walked dozens upon dozens (if not 100 or more) of batters.

I highly recommend reading this on X. Hilarious to read through a few people on the streamer’s X feed. I’m assuming the older female is his mother. It’s worth a read.

Chance of something we dont know is about the same odds as your next pack not having Ohtani

We at the forum are hardish core players, the thing about this is, what if your some random player that comes home from work logs in and grabs a beer, matches a bot (doesn’t know they’re playing one, why would they) and puts up 25 runs, goes bed thinks they’re having an awesome night on the show, and then comes home the next the day and see that they’re banned for boosting and they have no idea why. This whole thing makes no sense.

@jcassaro44_PSN dude have you read any of the comments!! He didnt get banned for boosting against a bot man. There is more to it.

Definitely a false statement.

I was looking at this last night and decided to check back in today too. What a weird [censored] way for grown adults to handle a situation lol

You keep saying that and I don't necessarily disagree but until somebody can give actual information beyond "he did more than just boost" then the boosting is all we have to go on.

Can we get a mod to shut this down or clear things up. I can't find anything about what you guys are talking about now my head is filled with all sorts of nonsense. I always though using zone without stride was cheating but there are Bots in this game!? Wt
-
@John19v34_MLBTS why would we need to shut it down? There has been no name calling, no politics, and no excessive profanity. Your confusion is not enough to shut something down. There are plenty of other threads to read.

Congratulations did you just get back from winning a spelling bee? Dork. Anyways, yeah what I meant was this all seemed like conspiracy but I couldn't find anything about this guy anywhere else.
Why would someone get banned for being matched up against a bot? Something I did not know was a thing.
Why are there bots?
Lol I understand my confusion is irrational Lol I just couldn't wrap my head around this whole thing literally came out of left field but it intrigued me so much I needed to know more but the thread itself was frustrating me with no resolve especially as the single source of such a topic I had never heard of.

Video Game streamers are pathetic lol. Go learn a trade and contribute to society.

You all sound like crotchety old men when you say stuff like that.
Which makes me, an actual old man, feel just a little bit younger and a little more open minded. So thanks for that.
Some of these guys actually contribute more to society more than the vast majority of us. Just last week CohhCarnage did a Charity stream and raised over $100,000 for the American Heart Association. He even matched the first $25,000 in donations.
Sure, there may be 100 or even 1000 bad game streamers for every good one but there are actually those that do contribute to society.

@Dolenz_PSN we are obviously speaking about the majority not the minority. I watch and love a few of the videos game streamers. Not all bad. But alot are bad and alot do cheat. They have to be good at any cost at the game to make their money. I prefer to watch the regular streamers that are not afraid to stream themselves getting their buts whooped. You notice some of these guys only stream wins and success. Thats fake and lame. Be a real person. Relate to us. Don't show us 84x flawless like anyone can relate to that [censored].
