What really gets my goat is the drophack. I nearly uninstalled sc2 as a result of being dropped either as soon as the game starts or just when i am about to kick arse. There really isn't any defence from it. I am from the uk and have noticed a strong pattern in its usuage. During school hours or after 11pm when all the kiddies are offline i am relatively safe and only get dropped about 10% of the time. Last night I played 10 games between 6pm and 8pm resulting in 6 drops  Really blizzard need to sort something out about it and at least change their system. For example if you get dropped as the game starts the points deducted should be halfed. Also blizzard themselves should have some detection software in place that automatically bans anyone who has won more than 50% of their games as a result of player drops. | ||

Was there any reason to openly BM Executor in the game you were playing against him or was it just you raging over the past ? Did Executor hack the game you were playing when you insulted him ? Why didnt you refuse to play against a former hacker ? Why didnt you just kept your mouth shut and complained after the match ? you behaved prematurely and deserve to get punished for it. I hope you dont get banned but you shouldnt BM ppl ingame no matter what they did in the past. By BM i mean insulting other players btw ^^. Oh. Pour executor. Can you give me his contact info? I wonna... BM him too. | ||

BAN THE HACKERS ! Many sports have been ruined by people cheating (like cycling using illegal substances like epo and such ) have ruined the sport for alot of people. I think 6 out of the 8 last winners of Tour de France have been caught using illegal supplements, Lance Armstrong is still debatable, since he has beaten all of the people who did use illegal supplements, but never been caught. Now peoples trust in the sport and the athletes is somewhat ruined. People come back after their 2 year suspension and act like nothing happened, kinda sickening. | ||

If a hacker constantly cheats, he's not going to suddenly stop cheating when a new game comes out -_- When trust is destroyed, it takes a long time to get it back. Hackers should never be given a warm welcome, period. IMO I'll never 100% trust a proven hacker, but if they can go 1-2 years without hacking, then at that point maybe the trust-building can begin again. nobody likes him. But a counter-example is DIMAGA, who is a proven abuser, yet everyone pretty much adores him. What do you mean, an "abuser"? And when has he done this? I don't know anything about this (not saying its not true, just interested to know more) | ||

If you stole once, you are a thief well, if you steal once and prove later on that you've learned from your mistakes - ok but if you continuously steal and - worse - have never shown any sign of regret....then that's bad, very bad; ppl like TT1 or ajtls have (or at least seem to have) left their dark past behind them and have lived up to the expectation of the community; totally different | ||

My god everything that dude does just makes me chuckle inside to no end. My thoughts exactly. When I heard he was in the SC2 scene and making results I was all O_O because he caused such hilarious drama back in the day for chronic lying and map-rigging. EDIT: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=63802 for new-comers unaware of the history. On topic: the community clearly does not approve of hacking. The only possible benefit of former hackers competing is their becoming successful and providing epic games. Testie has accomplished this, but I feel he is the exception, not the rule. Furthermore, we must weigh the sacrifice of sportsmanship against the benefits of spectating a handful more players. The community has always dealt with underhanded practices in a rather ad hoc fashion. We are not governed by any single dictator organization, so it will be some time till punishments are codified or unified. | ||

I hope whatever personal problems you have resolve (or have resolved) favorably, and you would definitely have a fan in me if you came back to Broodwar or started playing Starcraft 2. I used to feel differently about hackers. I thought that if you hacked, you deserved to be permanently kicked out from the Starcraft community. But now, my one criterion for accepting past hackers is "has the hacker played well in a LAN where cheating was impossible?" If he has, I don't care if he hacked before that LAN or since. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't raise a stink if blizzard banned them. And I understand that some online tournaments are very important to some players, and those players would be cheated if they were hacked against in those tourneys. So if the hacker is banned from those tournaments as well, that would make sense to me. But do I care that the player hacked? No. Lots of people say Starcraft is their favorite game because of the classy, manner, tight-knit community. I get that some people find that important, but to me it's a joke. I like the game, and I like good players playing game. If I want class, I'll watch some rich white guy on a horse use a cane to hit a little white ball through an arch (a sport which very well may not exist anywhere but in my mind as a a representation of privilege). So hack away. Get caught hacking multiple times. Repeatedly lie about it -- or revel in the fact that you do it, and laugh at the money you won because of it. Show yourself to be a pathological cheater -- if you're skilled, I want you in the GSL. | ||

if you want to ban ex sc1 hackers from tourneys you additionally have to ban wc3 hackers, cs hackers and so on... they all got their punishment in the game in that they used hacks and they will get punished in this game if they start using hacks. | ||
