General Discussion - I'm feeling suicidal right now. - Forum

It's sad really. Just a lowly standard player. May RNGesus be with you.	Posted by Shovelcut#3450 on Sep 27, 2018, 9:47:25 PM Quote this Post
Well one of the problems is they will ban "no bodies" because the community really doesn't know about them. But now if your a streamer and get some decent views, they let you get away with just about anything from what ive seen. This is prob going back about 8 months ago and this streamer went and left his computer(had a face cam) and got attacked but guess what. The game auto logged so he wouldn't die and lose exp once he reached a certain amount of health. So I go and report this to GGG and nothing happened to the guy even though using stuff like this is not allowed. I even gave them a link to the clip on the guy twitch to see this happen. Before taking the guy off my my list of people to watch, he was still playing the same account 3 months ago. Now if I do that, I get banned. Its funny how people that stream the game that get decent viewership get to do what they want. I would give the name and link but god for bid I do, Ill get banned instead of the actual cheater.

" 鬼殺し wrote: Not really relevant but I can imagine how frustrating that may have been. The only time I've seen a streamer get their comeuppance was when it was someone who'd verbally abused staff behind the scenes repeatedly. Like, seriously abused. That's probably higher on the no-no list than autoscript usage, but I agree there are almost certainly some double standards going on here. And although I'd never test it, I'll never really know if I'd be treated the same as a 'nobody' were I to cheat or RMT. I'd like to believe I would, but we'll never know. That all said, I suspect the OP was banned automatically rather than by hand. And the OP has acknowledged it's ultimately their fault for being banned. AND the person who responded to him is known to be a mere Support worker, so it's not like this was even elevated particularly high. Seems pretty clear-cut a case of ban-for-using-illegal-programs, even by the OP's admission. Whether or not a streamer is banned for the same isn't going to change any of that. No it wont change anything but its still bull shit that GGG has double standards like that.	Posted by blazer572#0445 on Sep 27, 2018, 11:45:35 PM Quote this Post
Just make another account? I would mention something about suicidal tendencies, but would rather not as (like most things nowadays) I have no idea what is deemed 'legal' or 'politically correct' on this subject. There's devils on each side of you with bottles in their hands. You need one more drop of poison and you'll dream of foreign lands.

I understand that everyone hates me because i did this. But. I didn't do this cheating on purpose since i would never risk my account to get banned in the first place. I understand very well that it was wrong to use this software poe hud even if i didn't know what it actually was for thing. Im still crying about it, im still feeling very upset and stressed about this whole sitation i am in. I just wish to go back to play on my account that i spent so much time and money on. I'm feeling awful today too and i just wanna go back to play on my account since it's dear to me, not to mention the friends i have made on there. People who helped me learn the game and level with me and such.. It's all feels like a nightmare at this point. I wish it would get better.
