Someone playing a match without AC, versus someone intentionally bypassing the AC.

Fam0us (in the screenshot given) forgot to run the AC / it glitched / ran it late or whatever.

Irman actually attempted to bypass the anticheat by running it on a different PC than his moss file. Whether or not he was cheating is irrelevant.

One is a simple DQ from the event...another is a year-long ESL ban. Take a guess as to which is which?

Then again, there have been instances in the past of people tampering with their ESL client files and nothing being done. So, perhaps ESL will look the other way again now.



Final Thoughts:

There are so many ex-cheaters (and current cheaters) in this game who actively play, that it truly is absurd. Each time I read the forums or talk to someone in-game, I feel as though I'm trapped in a play written by Joseph Heller. It's pure comedy; it's pure comedy.

I understand the appeal of cheating. People want to look good, and people want to make others feel inferior. In sane communities, those who take these desires to the extent of cheating are ostracized. They're exiled, and banned. Here...there is no such process. Zillah, Irman, AsianMagic, RyanJ...the list goes on, and on, and on, of players who have been banned for cheating before, or who have admitted to cheating, or who have been caught cheating.

Not only once, but over, and over, and over again. Yet we allow them back. Not only once, but over, and over, and over again. It's tragic, and it's chronic. It's pathetic.

It's pathetic that ESL can be told by ZZXQ time and time again, "Our client can be bypassed, guys, in these easy steps...", and ESL will refuse to fix it because they can't admit that their product is flawed.

It's pathetic that people can be caught cheating in the middle of international qualifiers, and ESL will choose to look the other way.

It's pathetic that people (like Ripolocity, or RyanJ, or Snitchez) can cheat over and over again, for years, and we still allow him to compete in our events.

It's pathetic that when those people are accused of cheating (surprise, surprise) again, we allow them to defend themselves. When SheepBacon runs cheats, and is subsequently banned, rather than demanding retribution on the cheater, we demand retribution on the league who did it. How dare you ban someone who we didn't think cheated! We wanted you to ban the people we expected to cheat!

Two years later, Snitchez is banned, and the cycle repeats.

It's pathetic, and it's comedy.

*shrug* Enjoy the laughs?
