tbf some of the mods need to step up their game anyway
this is an entirely different issue

if the mods don't feel they're capable of the extra workload, that's fine, although it does beg the question of why there's always a cap on the manpower of the mod staff

i just find it logically inconsistent that some setups are blacklisted from red hearts, if there's an issue with cheating in the red heart setups that are allowed as it is

That's something you could say pretty much every month since mods were added and it'd still be true, lol.

In a perfect world, with a perfect mod team who was always on top of everything, sure, you could comp it.

That world does not exist and has never existed, though. So you take a pragmatic route.

It was comped 3 or 4 times, iirc, and the last two rounds of it in particular were utter crapfests to mod.
Hibikiover 11 years ago

deleteddeletedover 11 years ago

deleteddeletedover 11 years ago

Weren't you one of the people who cheated in CM, though?
me? the only thing i ever "cheated" in was training lobby reverse mafia, and that wasn't so much "cheating" as it was "rolesharing with the intent of trolling people", which i did with about a dozen people including site mods at the time that you'd appointed

so, if you're going to try and ad hom to discredit me, you should probably do a better job of it
I was talking to Kerry, not you.

At the end of the day, whether or not CM is the root cause, every time CM was comped there was a huge increase in cheating. If you can't trust people not to cheat, you take away the opportunity. Even if you had enough time to deal with all those extra cheaters (They don't), that doesn't undo all the legitimate players who are unhappy because people cheated in their games, and it gives a bad impression overall.

imo

fp is a bad comp setup, because there are multiple ways for it to be autowin after n1

you see them as the same thing because you are accustomed to your world-view revolving around yourself

well, it's more the fact that you're saying "I BLACKLISTED IT AND EVERYONE LIKED IT" as opposed to "everyone liked it when it was blacklisted"
They're exactly the same thing. I was merely saying that so I could point how terrible the comparison with A&D is.

not for a trophy

I mean, i'm not aware of one (although we do get the occasional case that comes through), but when people see that their favourite setup that they play all the time with their buddies is comped & they could win a few pixels for their page if they just did some #skyping, then i really think a lot of them would cheat.

Should also be pointed out that essentially nobody even remotely complained when I blacklisted CM (unlike when A&D was removed) because everyone had just lived through a bunch of awful rounds that were absolutely full of cheating and saw just how bad it was.
just for once can you stop trying to make the discussion about yourself and what you did and how important you are, and talk about the present?
That isn't anything to do with me. It's about how everyone cheered when it happened. Which is an extremely relevant point, because those people had actually just seen how crap it all was.

I suppose you could call it Pragmatism.
