Good morning KDice:
As most of you know a player has the ability to enter and participate in tourneys even if they are at a status of -play. I have tried to discourage this by taking away chat privileges during a -play status, but this is not working due to players chat proxying in tournies. Henceforth, the timeframe I set for -play bans will BEGIN at the last day a tournament is played. I will also lobby with Ryan to have all points earned in tournies after a ban has occured to be multiplied by 2 and docked from that accounts point total. If a player is caught chat proxying in a tourney I will chat ban the account used to chat proxy for the duration the original account is banned. If none of this works I will lobby for Ryan to MEGAban all accounts tied to that players IP address. |

"If a player is caught chat proxying in a tourney I will chat ban the account used to chat proxy for the duration the original account is banned." Are players or accounts get banned? In my opinion it should be players,so all known alts should be -play banned as well (sounds a lame lot of work yeah)...Cause it is not about making "an account" of the player not gain any more points,it is about punishing the player so he/she wouldn't like to repeat that action again. |

at 7:46 AM, Wednesday October 7, 2009 EDT I actually hate -play being my "best" option. Point docking would be a much better punishment, after all, gaining points via cheating is the whole idea, right?
And yes, I think -playing accounts simply leads to the creation of more alts and a more difficult job for me to keep up with. |
