Player got banned at lvl93 in beyond for maphack

I had friended one guy too, who later openly admitted using maphack / other hacks. I've had my fair share of experience with hackers in other games, so it only disappointed me slightly.

...PoE is... Competitive? You guys crack me up. While not completely falling in the category in comparison to other games, PoE can be said to be very close to casual gaming. I've played games hours upon hours in the past, just to be that one millisecond faster, that one inch more precise or seeing that one decisive move ahead of my opponent, perfecting my play to the utmost limits in order to win hundreds of €/$ in SMALL tournaments. In PoE you... run high level maps for 16 hours a day? Trade that time to get enough currency to buy items that'll let you faceroll maps / farm whatever you want? Craft better items? This has gone into off-topic ranting, but I can't believe someone would be silly enough to call PoE "competitive". :)
