15 players were caught and disqualified for abuse in the TSL ladder stage. Some of these were big, respected and known names. This is unacceptable, and GosuGamers bans them all for six months from all our events and rankings.
Some people will think this is too harsh, some will think it is too lenient. But this is the decision GosuGamers staff has come to.

what you guys think about this?

Good, the community should step up against cheaters/abusers, regardless of their actual skill in the game.
|
I think its awesome that GG.net is Taking note of who the abusers in TSL were and helping to let them know that Abuse will be punished.
|
I think opposers of this are going to be in for a very very rough surprise once we come with our announcement.
Did I say very.

I think this is great and i really thank GosuGamers for supporting us in punishing abusers. We'll be releasing our own list of punishments in the next few days.

Just when I thought the drama was settling down. Damn the repercussions seem to get worse for cheaters. Still looking forward to TSL2 because the first one was sooooooooo sick =]

What kind of punishments can we expect from TL? Will they be along the same lines or harsher?
|
Ban for a year/all future TL events? D:
|
Really like this as well. Well done ggnet. Can't wait to see this tlnet punishment. I don't feel bad for them at all... i just really wanted some of those guys to not have done it in the first place:\
|
I'm glad gg.net is doing their part, even if it is only 6 months. Anyone who tries to justify the cheating and abuse should step back and remember that this isn't just a regular tournament, this shit has over 20k in cash prizes involved. There's no way they SHOULDN'T be punished.

Does this just mean further punishment for the culprits that have already been caught or even more and new cases ( maybe out of the top 48 ) ect.. ?

So I guess life time ban from any teamliquid event ? O_O
|
It's about the players that got caught, the abuse checks are done.
|
I'm very glad they're showing solidarity in this.
I also think six months is a bit low, but I'm certainly not a member of ggnet staff and I'm sure plenty of thought went into the decision.
Thank you, ggnet!

Oh damn.
And I applaud GosuGamers for this. The amount of abusers was pretty much a disgrace, and if we ever want to be taken seriously in any respect, we can't let abusers get away with it.

This seems more than just a punishment beyond DQ. As in; new information that make the previous abuse look like stealing pennies from the 'take a penny, leave a penny' dish.
