cheaters are annoying but calm down lmfao
bonus "they're actively hurting the gaming company π₯Ί" as if anyone's supposed to give a fuck
Fuck it. Just death penalty for everything. Run a red light? Death penalty. Shit on the sidewalk? Death penalty. Steal a bag of chips? Death penalty. Sneeze, and dont cover your mouth? Death penalty.
And the sentence can be carried out on the spot by any good samaritan that witnessed the despicable act.
Public logic already readily defends cops killing people over minor infractions + being non-violently uncooperative, and we've got heroes like Rittenhouse being promoted who basically did just that, so I think we'll get there soon enough. Anything in defense of capital.
PS I'm curious why you have an 88 in the Year of Our Lord 2025. Like, I'm not saying you mean anything bad by it, surely not, I'm just wondering why you stuck with using the last two digits of your birth year (I assume) given that number's connotations (which, again, I'm sure you don't mean).
Yeah IDK what you're talking about. I'm just into Angel numbers, lol. It's some Nazi thing, isn't it? I'm not pretending ignorance, I don't wanna look it up though.
Yeah, 88 = HH = Heil Hitler. It's a very popular dogwhistle. Like I said, I totally didn't think you meant it that way, I was just curious what produced it.
Just me being a nerd about the universe and synchronicities... These fuckers ruin everything.
Someone is gonna post a screenshot of this on db0
Use whatever db0 is? Death Penalty.
make it a tagline tbh
a lot of people actually think this tbh. think of anyone killed by cops. "he stole from a walmart in 1987, he was no angel"
Sneeze, and dont cover your mouth? Death penalty.
this but unironically
Calm down, Shang Yang.
i've seen that star trek episode. it turned out great for everybody but wil wheaton
There's an added layer of racism here because many redditor Gamersβ’ think most cheaters are from China.
these days i see more SS 1488 shit than i see stereotypically asian names on high ping accounts.
if there are a lot of cheaters from china in your game (dubious) maybe it's because a shitload of people live there?
Game companies encourage cheating because these types of users buy multiple accounts (ex. Tarkov for RWT) or buy multiple subscriptions (ex. MMOs like WoW for RWT)
There is no reason to believe they couldn't eliminate cheating over night if they wanted to.
All anti-cheat systems are rootkits of variable invasiveness.
They have no problem pouring money on psychologists helping to exploit human behavior for maximal profit via microtransactions, but somehow "struggle" to deal with cheaters. Best they can do is kernel-level access to your computer that can potentially do irreversible damage to said computer (either from third-party exploiting this) and it doesn't even work more than half of the time.
for real. these companies dont care if the user experience is ruined bc they already got the money and there are no laws (at least in the us) saying they have to give it back
i will say thats some mega loser shit tho. cheating at video games is cringe enough (youβre cheating at a toy that doesnt matter lol) but to get caught, banned, then buy the game again on a different account. like bro you donβt even like this game if you canβt play it without cheats, what is going on in someoneβs life to make them like this
Much like hacking websites (y'know, those virtual machines that are made to be vulnerable for learning cybersecurity or whatever) or exploiting glitches in single player games, (like MissingNo. or Glitch Cities in PokΓ©mon Red) I imagine some people cheat in these games for the thrill of figuring out how and successfully breaking the sandbox. Of course some people just download cheats to make themselves more effective in the game, and that's kinda lame to me, but whatever.
I suggest we abolish competitive online games instead 
Any game with rankings or ELO is being taken too seriously
nah i want competitive matches not to oscillate between steamrolling people who never had a chance and getting rolled. my ten year old nephew doesn't need to get dunked on by division 3 college players.
Play with your 10 year old nephew in your own private lobby, matchmaking was a ~~mistake.~~ corporate plot
i don't have 80 friends to battle royale with. shit i don't even have 20 friends to fill a big TDM map
We had a solution for this, it was called the server browser. Battle royale was also a mistake/corporate plot, though.
idk fortnite was an accident, that game was originally some generic survival crafting bullshit. the boom of the last 8 years or so has roots in ARMA 3 mods
That's why I didn't cross out mistake for BR unlike matchmaking. The corpos sure jumped on it hard, but it did originate with an honest mistake by innocent modders.
i thought you meant mistake like 
anime was a mistake
abolish gamers
I'd say this is just exaggeration but there are people who cheer when the police murder shoplifters and people illegally selling cigarettes
They cry about inconsequential stuff like this (granted, cheating is annoying), yet when you bring up issues about sexism, racism and other forms of bigotry that are festered in the gaming "culture" and when you bring up that children are exposed to all that, which is later exposed to next generations from the previous, at best they'll downplay some of it or at worst, they'll deny all of it.
Cheating in video games is a more valued issue needing to be addressed than bigotry to these lunatics. Gaming companies continue to develop games that allow and actively encourage this behavior unimpeded. Deeply unserious bunch.
it's not just "muh vidya". an online game is proletarian recreation and when you work 8+ hours a day and have maybe 2 hours of leisure time to experience joy for once then cheaters are doing something personal.
it's not systemic and obviously those issues are more important, but consider how many cheaters also put slurs in their tags and maybe "death to videogame cheaters" kills a lot of nazis by coincidence
Sure, again this is not to say cheaters aren't a problem at all, but to say that they are a problem localized to the game they're cheating on.
The actual important issues extend beyond just the game itself currently being played, and it's not just a result of a bunch of white kids or manchildren being "edgy" for the hell of it, all of it has real-life consequences.
Those who votekick cheaters with racist usernames, pfps, etc.. don't actually mind the racism and those types are actively more harmful than cheating itself. Some games necessitate communication, so "just muting" is an option that makes multiplayer games less fun and even if these games didn't, it doesn't make any of the issues any less important to address.
Even outside of live service/online games, game communities are littered with these bunch. Literal Nazi Bars everywhere you go. So, the only sane option there is out there is either sticking to singleplayer games or finding niche communities that aren't actively harboring Nazis.
unfortunately it's hard to have enough people to play a lot of game modes while niche and everybody having other obligations
gamers are the biggest treatlerites in the west. genuinely no group i can think of who are bigger babies than gamers
Sure fines or ejecting players for cheating in a professional setting
But dream on in public. Want that kind of control bring back private servers. Game companies will never invest in the kind of hands-on moderation it would require. You think receiving GM tickets in a mmorpg takes staff? Imagine needing a referee for every online game. Because that's what it would take to do it right.
They don't even realize that the companies could easily catch and ban cheaters if they just spent money on it. They don't care beyond cheating that fucks up their revenue. The only time I could imagine even the slightest concern over cheating would be in cases where players can get paid. Even then going to jail for it would be wild. Imagine sending someone to jail for cheating in a game like basketball or something
Going to prison for fouling too many times in a YMCA game of pickup basketball while black

Some people just want more suffering in the world.
This reminds me of my boss explaining to me his idea, where if you cause a wreck on the highway, you get prison time and a fine for all of the lost opportunity cost for everybody affected by the wreck, including businesses, whose employees are late.
Itβs not enough for a medical bill to bankrupt you for life, letβs have a car accident on the highway bankrupt you for life as well.
that's one of those nonsensical ideas that only the dumbest fucking rich pigs would ever have, and they would realize (but not admit) it's dumb if you said "what if that happened to you? anyone can get a flat tire and cause a massive pile up". they lack empathy and never even considered it could easily be them on the receiving end of their weird fantasy
