    IMO they should make a reward system for reporting cheaters. Specifically you earn credit towards your own dedicated server or becoming a moderator on an official one.

      imo you shouldn’t give them money until they stop treating you like garbage. 3 new games where they don’t treat you like crap should be the minimum to even consider them a potential gaming company.

        I haven’t bought an EA game in years. But a lot of games have problems with cheaters. I think deputizing players who take the time to report cheaters is the best way to combat the problem.

        Like the real problem is that submitting a ticket doesn’t deal with the cheater fast enough to stop them from ruining the game for people. Live moderators however are an active deterrent as they can get your account blacklisted/banned much faster.

      All this does is literally reward everyone who spams cheating reports against the entire server.

        The reward system would utilize the currently existing ticket system where reports are verified.

        The problem you described is easily mitigated by only rewarding users whose reports result in disciplinary action above a %. So if you want a server you’re incentivized to only report actual cheaters.

          Yep.

          You’re adding to it.

          In a silly way.

          All doing this does is incentivize false reports.

            edited my comment to explain it in further detail for you bud.

              Oh, well yes, if you do that, then that would make more sense, and I wouldn’t have said what I said.

              But uh, what has actually happened here is that you said a silly thing, I pointed out it was silly, you realized why it was silly, figured out how to make it not silly, and now you have retroactively changed what you said, and are acting indignantly, as if that is what you had said from the beginning.

              Was I just supposed to invent those words and put them in your mouth for you, from the get go?

              Read your mind?

              This is like saying “kill all people”, someone obecting to that, and then you appending “- humanely, who desire to be medically euthanized due to terrible injury or disease”… and then you getting mad, and acting like that is what you said the whole time.

              Incredible.

              This is reddit mod tier logic of retroactively editing your comment to entirely change or reframe what you said, but you just admit this, think this is normal and fine, and that actually I am the asshole.

              Again, incredible.

                You need to go outside.

                edit: the reason I edited my comment above at all was to remove the word “Obviously” from the beginning because I decided it was rude of me. While I did elaborate, it was to ensure I was being clear without being rude.

                Like I don’t wanna be one of those tOuCh GrAsS dicks… but like dude… come on. You read waaaay to far into this and I think you need to take a break from the internet.
