IMO they should make a reward system for reporting cheaters. Specifically you earn credit towards your own dedicated server or becoming a moderator on an official one.
imo you shouldn't give them money until they stop treating you like garbage. 3 new games where they don't treat you like crap should be the minimum to even consider them a potential gaming company.
I haven't bought an EA game in years. But a lot of games have problems with cheaters. I think deputizing players who take the time to report cheaters is the best way to combat the problem.
Like the real problem is that submitting a ticket doesn't deal with the cheater fast enough to stop them from ruining the game for people. Live moderators however are an active deterrent as they can get your account blacklisted/banned much faster.
All this does is literally reward everyone who spams cheating reports against the entire server.
The reward system would utilize the currently existing ticket system where reports are verified.
The problem you described is easily mitigated by only rewarding users whose reports result in disciplinary action above a %. So if you want a server you're incentivized to only report actual cheaters.
Yep.
You're adding to it.
In a silly way.
All doing this does is incentivize false reports.
edited my comment to explain it in further detail for you bud.
You need to go outside.
edit: the reason I edited my comment above at all was to remove the word "Obviously" from the beginning because I decided it was rude of me. While I did elaborate, it was to ensure I was being clear without being rude.
Like I don't wanna be one of those tOuCh GrAsS dicks... but like dude... come on. You read waaaay to far into this and I think you need to take a break from the internet.
