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

I still don't get what kind of reputation or image was destroyed? He was a cheater in bw, so everyone thought of him as a cheater anyway?

Can we actually get a ban on this idiot? He will do no good in this community, and is blatantly being an imbecile. Just curious, but if I called sheth depressed and fat would I simply be warned? Especially in a thread regarding his reputation?

Unfortunately, as of late, it seems that the ugly side has been showing for too long. It's unfortunate Spades decided to leave, and I wish him the best of luck in the future!

this is one of those issues that the "ugly" side as you put it should be out, we don't need players that maphack, or have in the past maphacked . hes not the only one i am looking at..

Well, with the sportsman example, you needed to be tested for doping. Not have a bunch of nerds throw wild accusations at someone on a internet forum.

It is very, very professional done in the sports world...
You mean those cyclists that win the Tour de France? When they find plastics and an insane low amount of a forbidden product in their blood, an amount so small that it is impossible to have been taken in, so small that blood transfusing is the the most probable cause, however, a piece of evidence was hidden by the searchers.
The team gets the partial news first, and even before it hits the newspaper they already have an excuse that they ate a rare piece of meat a couple days before. They even had the cook testifying that he bought the meat on a maybe discussable place. The "common" people believed this cyclist, because the forbidden product percentage was so low, and screamed for forgiveness.
When the doping searchers reveal the extra piece of information about the plastic found in the blood as well, the media is too stupid to understand the meaning, spreads false rumors and nobody was smart enough to understand what really happened. The entire thing went to court, I think around 8 months later(?), it was a cluster fuck, somebody got punished, and then again not punished too hard, but then punished hard enough so he couldn't participate in the next Tour de France.

That was really professional.
I had a good night of sleep.

He does what is good and doesn't want to affect other people. I think that is very nice of him, but I hate how people dish out negativity to him.

Whether he did or not "Cheat", he has a chance to change back into a positive player.

Regardless of whether he hacked, there were multiple people who witnessed him stream cheating less than half a year ago. That alone is grounds to be kicked off a team in my opinion.

I completely agree, if he has any respect for the game, he will admit his wrong doings.

Want to know one reason why some people dont admit things? Because they didnt do them. Spades hasn't been given a fair chance to prove he is innocent and likely wont unless another pro player really goes out of his way to analyse games and find guilt or innocence.


Actually they did analyse the replay and called him out for hacking. That is enough proof when it is coming from another professional player. No team would ever pick him up anyways after all that has been said by the professional players calling him out as a cheater. It's also suspicious that he just leaves without defending himself.

Anyways best of luck to him in whatever future he chooses to be in.

This will be it.

Community = super bad villains.

Western Wolves = forced into this terrible terrible spot, couldn't support their member from the pitch forks.

Very true, i dont even know how we let his cheating get to this point, with that and his BW background.

Don't you think he had enough chances? He already cheated in BW, I don't even understand why all the BW cheaters got a second chance with SC2 at all.

Hopefully this will help end this issue. Knowing this community though I'm not very helpful. Gl to Spades regardless of whether he's guilty or not in whatever he does.

I find that certain comments are allowed sometimes and not others. I have to assume it depends on which moderator reviews it but yah.. that kind of comment shouldnt be allowed on TL -_-

Never understood why any known cheater in online games is given another competetive chance. And no I don't care which big time name from any game imaginable you out "shouldn't he be allowed to play?!", if he cheated before, then my stance would be, no he should not.

There are after all, still people who never cheated.


But I also don't really like or understand why if innocent he would have to leave his team so fast. I wouldn't really look down on WW if they'd keep him until there was absolute proof one way or another if it's even possible. Unless, if caught for cheating and they knew about him doing it...

Casts more doubt to me than clears anything, but then again I'm no sponsor or any other big actor in the SC2 professional field. They probably see it different.

dislike these rash reactions by the managers etc in regards to these things in general. 1 Post trolls shouldn't be able to cause these reactions, as you can basically drop down anyone with it that is no superstar. And as we can see it starts to appear more periodically. If this gets more common this will probably starve out pro scenes bottom.
Not that its not a good thing to get rid of cheaters, but it shouldn't be done by analyzing a lil BoX series after someone that created an alt, made you biased. And afterwards the only thing people can say, well he was unlucky having so much luck in the games, so he is a cheater, despite losing a game with nothing on the line then honor.
If someone is truly caught (multiple times online luck and offline nothing close to it), then people should ban this person from tournaments.
