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)

I can't be sure Spades is guility, but it sure looks like it. And this is the right thing to do, I'm afraid.

People who are innocent leave their teams right? O no, they don't. This guy is completely clueless, EVERYTHING he does makes him seem more guilty

Witch hunt? I call it justice matter infact Blizzard should sue him for damaging the spirit of online competive play. Dont feel sorry for him feel sorry for the players he cheated!


But you don't know if he cheated anyone. It's a witch hunt.

Unfortunate that Spades had to leave his team, but under teh current situation I can see that he really had no choice :/

Spades, no1 wants you quit, worst case scenario is you made a mistake and hopefully admit to it and grow some balls your still going to do well.


What no. If he is found hacking he is done for ever, especially since he did this in bw. He is right when he says his career is fucked if he is found map hacking he will not be allowed to play in tournaments at all and no tournament would let him play unless they are clueless.

The fact you think worst case scenario is you made a mistake is hilariously wrong.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Why would he leave if he wasn't guilty, unless completely called out by TeamLiquid or having a full set of pro-gamers analyze the games,it just makes you look like you felt your guilt and decided to leave.

We have no real proof that he cheated. I'd like to have the time to analyze any pro's replays pack, I'm sure I could find a lot of "suspicious evidence".
Now, I don't say spades didn't cheat, I really don't know, but I just think he deserved a fair "trial" and that's really not what he got.

Not if you're haypro, tt1, etc. Community has shown it's capable of forgiving people if they admit to hacking and make amends, etc.

Spades doesn't respond to the allegations-GUILTY

I'm sure if he did try to plead his case, people would assume he was being overly defensive and still find him GUILTY.
blah blah blah...

Circumstantial at best? Disappointed with WW, obviously they're looking at the replays with a huge bias going in. If they really wanted to get to the bottom of this mess they would see what CatZ and co had to say yesterday. This is also why it would've been pointless letting WW deal with the accusations from the start as Martijn said would've been best. Nothing would've happened.

Judge Catz gave him a fair trial and he was found guilty.

Funny that you exclude Spades from that list, as he was caught maphacking in BW and was forgiven too.
