This is not the place to argue whether or not spades hacked, do that in the relevant thread please.

(this is in effect page 10 onward)

Yeah. Innocent or guilty, this was a cop out. Good luck in the future though in whatever you do.

" Considering a player should be considered innocent until proven guilty and the lack of conclusive proof, we don't believe Spades used maphacks."
This really bothers me that they still don't believe he actually map hacked. Catz, illusion, drewbie and tt1's analysis of the lucifron series made it really obvious that he was map hacking. But I guess I don't really care, I never heard of this team Western Wolves until today. I actually didn't even know spades was on a team.

Just read the mod edit. Sorry for discussing hacks!

He is obviously guilty. I do not feel 1% sorry for someone that is cheating.

Maphackers he should be banned for life. In the future I hope the law is improved so that they would go to prison as well.

Savage tribes would wonder at how clumsy and messy we are with handling such cases.

Death Hand in Dune 2 is more accurate than our methods of judgement here.

How this all played out is very sad indeed.
He was accused and his career was demolished within what, a day?
This shouldn't have been such a public issue unless there was some real good evidence or such.
This just isn't the way; if he is hacking or not, its still not the right way.

This is the first time Im actually proud of our community. I was very sad about the orb/Destiny situation and felt ashamed about our community but this is much more serious. Cheaters/Maphackers can destroy esport in starcraft 2. And i really hope that our community will be even more aware about cheating at a pro level.

Btw guys, I just want to put this out there, around the beta, there was a qualifier for the Hungarian national lineup, and i won the finals 3-0, got accused of maphacking.
I said, it's complete bullshit, mods looked at the replays, there was no real evidence, case solved, the guy who accuse me after losing the finals disappeared.

Compare that to the recent situation. Spade came out and said u can believe whatever u want, and 1 day later he "retires" because his reputation has been dmged.

There is no dmg done by an unproven accusation, i went on the be part of the national lineup and win a national LAN at Budapest later on.

So I hope everyone gets why i say, he's guilty for sure, 100%, and everyone who still defends him is stupid

Cry about whichunts when people are punished severly for minor offences, not when a hacker gets exposed. GJ to whoever started it


You're a nobody, obviously no-one's going to care whether you hack or don't.

thanks, it was a national selection, was posted on the national forum. Yes it's a tone smaller scene then TL and the international scene. EDITED, saw warning on top

Go for it, lets see you try to ruin IdrA's or WhiteRa's career with a post. I'll give you till the end of today.

I want to punch my screen when I read shit like this.

Hacking is a way bigger deal than any of the other " drama " that doesn't actually impact the integrity of the game and the competition itself.

This is not a pointless witchhunt, this is an important issue. If he's a hacker which it looks like he is then people should be HAPPY that he was ousted.

If he really is a hacker, then I'm glad he's gone (still not convinced he is). The process, though, is incredibly biased and shameful. This "trial by mob" stuff will not last just because we have too many people who over/under-react and/or have no clue what they're talking about. We need some sort of central body to judge things like this. Not random people giving their opinions and then a whole bunch of +1s on Reddit.

So now we can say "Go Spades" to guys like this?
Honorable decision to leave, I suppose, even if he was indeed in this situation because of dishonorable actions. Don't call it a way out until the situation is 100% resolved.

What do I need to do to make you people understand how shameful your actions are?

Do I need to make 20 posts for 20 respectable players, taking any random replay and explaining how it proves absolutely that they are hackers? How many of you losers have actually even watched the replays?

Does the pleasure that you derive from judging another human justify all the pain that spades is feeling? If he hacks, let his team find out and take care of it. That's their job. Your job is to enjoy watching the games. Is that too much to ask?

"I can't just enjoy the game anymore, I need the power to ruin a persons happiness" - Starcraft community.

How are you people not on the floor kneeling and begging to apologize to spades for judging him when it is not your place to do so?

The answer? none of you. The only people who come even close to feeling shame for your actions aren't even part of your actions.


How the hell can we have justice if both the guilty and the innocent are punished as soon as doubt is raised?
