Making prestige stats online only is one of the most poorly thought out decisions of the year.
Yup, we saw this [censored] in 17, boosting and dashboarding. That is the real problem here. Not that i condone boosting, because i do not, but SDS had short memory when they added online only stats back into the game.

It's strange to bust out the ban hammer for it imo.
I don't remember anyone getting banned for boosting online stats before.
And before all you mall cops come out of the woodwork, I don't boost.

They've been banning all year for it, this isn't new.
As with all things, just because you weren't aware, doesn't mean it didn't happen.

SDS just needs to make prestige stats offline too.
This. Same requirements. Time is time. I guess they could make it All Star or higher if they think it would be too easy.

SDS should give you a reason at least.
It says that I was Mission/Stat Boosting. Your suspension expires in 20D 23H 31M 52S.
That’s so bush lol. I see game histories of random players scoring 50+ runs a game boosting with others. I feel for ya man

You went to the TSN school of communication, didn't you?
Yeah, I was talking about previous years of the game. And they've been really inconsistent with it this year, too.

Im sorry but this is the same company that let 2 sony partners cheat so one could get closer to world series, live on air. Yes they matched up but they talked about it and NOTHING was done. Nothing surprises me with SDS anymore
Who were these partners?
It was like 4 years ago anyway. Some people just don’t let things go
It was last year

He’s talking about previous years, [censored].
"I don't remember anyone getting banned for boosting online stats before."
The word before means ever, it does not mean in prior years. If that's what he was talking about, he should have worked on his written communication skills.
As for calling me names, I think that lets us all know the amount of high level thinking your brain is able to muster. Tough break, but genetics is out of your hands. Keep your head up, I'm sure you have a nice smile!

Ok I checked thats guys profile and it says 91 hits in one game as his best. WTF how is that possible? lol
No that was 91 homers it was 1492 hits in one game. Yeah I’m thinking there is some fishy business going on there. Not saying his ban was legit but when I look at some of his stats you definitely can question the legitimacy of his account.
Where there is smoke there is no collusion...with his opponents.
People are saying this is a great man who is being treated very unfairly. He has denied the boosting very strongly and, frankly, I believe him. You don’t punish him for getting 1492 hits in one game. You celebrate the great accomplishment. And don’t forget Chris Columbus. I talked to him on the phone just the other day. People forget, but he sailed the ocean while he was very depressed. And now antifa wants to tear down his statue? No, not happening. You protect the statues because Chris is a great American.
I’m neutral on the subject, I’m just pointing out a fact. Not sure what was meant by the rest of that post

Has nothing to do with the partners which is why I said nothing about who they were nor did it bother me. However when they ban people for boosting and then let other things go for their guys, the there is something wrong. Last year was the first year of partners, lol, no idea how you came up with 4 years.
SDS has a bad reputation of not doing anything to people who exploit the game and boost so why all of a sudden when they have shown that they didn't care before on numerous occasions do something now? There is so many people who have done this exact thing yet they play on.

This guy gets suspended, yet there’s still a team named “Alabama Slave Owners” still alive and kicking.
I played one a few weeks ago called the pedophiles.

New players love the Devs because they don’t know they banned nearly half the community one year for no reason at all lmao.

I came up with 4 years because the same thing happened with content creators in 17 and it was talked about more at the time. I forgot about last year because no one really cared about that one compared to the time in 17. As far as this particular post goes, if someone has 1492 hits or whatever in a game they are going to get banned period. I don’t care how nice of a guy the OP is or how good his content. The extent of boosting causes the ban, not boosting in general. I’m fairly certain no one has been banned for hitting and quitting or simply “______ with _____ and I’ll quit”. Its extreme cases like 1492 hits in a game or the guy that prestiged Felix in one game that gets banned

@Nanos_McGregor said in Suspended?:
Hypothetically lets say you did do it. Why are they giving you that big of a suspension? Especially since this is prolly a first time for you.
-
- The problem with punishing someone for boosting is that there's no clear consistent application of punishment. Tons of people are boosting. Imagine you are this guy, and BOOM! You cant play for over 3 weeks online? Some people would simply ask their bank to refund all transactions with SDS at that point.
However considering that a consistent punishment would mean bans for tons of people, SDS might want to re-think how they address boosting.
-
Requiring online stats caused this issue in the first place. There's alot of below average players who attempt to play online and after playing several games and not coming close to getting dailies done, let alone those needed for prestige, it results in problems like this. Dashboarding makes it even worse. If you and the other guy agree to let your 3 players in the top of the lineup both homer, at least you know the stats will count. That's not a good place to be and it's just gonna get worse till they figure out how to stop dashboarding or simply add other offline ways to prestige players.
-
Considering how competitive the gaming market it is for people's times and money, I'd be careful banning people unless its the absolute last resort. SDS isnt just competing to retain and attract players from other sports games/franchises, they are also competing against all those other BR games and some of the upcoming mega releases like Cyber Punk 2020. They've got to retain the current player base as much as possible - even if we are whiny, ungrateful, and complain non-stop.
To quote Monsters Inc. "We scare, because we care" - at least when it comes to this franchise.
-
Dumb question but exactly how does one go about “boosting” their stats in this manner other than hoping they match with someone they personally know outside of the game so that player allows them to run up the score without quitting? I feel like people usually quit whenever I’m lucky enough to get a 3-4 run lead in the event games...just trying to understand the context of this ban because I’d rather quit myself than risking a multi-week ban after spending a good amount of cash on this game!

What do you want him to do lol? People do that to me when my team name is normal, I talked to him and he is still mad because he did that to let people know he was using prestigable players, why not let people know lol. He honestly doesn't know what to say anymore, that stream was gonna be so fun
