    A "Penny" for your thoughts....so it says.


    NOTE: IF YOUR PLAN IS TO, FLAME, TROLL, BASH, NEGATIVISM, THEN PLEASE DO NOT BOTHER REPLYING TO THIS POST. THINK TWICE BEFORE YOU REPLY, BE CONCRETE, LOGICAL ABOUT YOUR THOUGHTS. THANK YOU.


    Gather around everyone, this is a story of a lifetime you don't want to miss.

    The current situation at hand is a very negative trending topic and this involves the wave of temporary ban's and account roll-backs to the players that used the so called "Damage Glitch". As a result of this, many players that have written about it, how they felt about it, how unfair it was, or the consequence of using the glitch was to severe, etc have received unintended and major negative backlash. Sure, players that exploited the glitch got what they deserved and in all fairness, they are paying the price for it of having their accounts temporarily suspended for a period of time and having their accounts rolled back to a certain date.

    Some players have claimed they only used it for 1-Day, few hours, on a certain date, got caught in the ban wave due to match-matching and being false flagged, but regardless of these reasons, their accounts will be rolled back two weeks prior. No matter how much time you put into those two weeks, or the gear you farmed through legitimate means, it will be lost and there is no going back which is unfortunate for many players. Have the glitch did not exist in the first place, problem like this would have not happened. However it existed and well players are paying the price for it.

    However, it brings to the point of other previous exploits, glitches, etc that existed long before the "DPS Glitch" ever existed, but yet those players that exploited previous methods are not subjected to a ban, temp ban or even a account rollback? Is this fair to those players that are currently facing punishment for the "DPS Glitch"? Why should only this category of players face a severe punishment when other players used a glitch or exploit from the past and they get to keep on chugging along and being able to access the game without any consequence? What gives them the right to get a no-ban free card? What constitutes their behavior that they gained unintended advantages over other players by using a previous exploit or glitch but yet they don't face any kind of punishment? Previous exploiters, glitchers, had an over-advantage of other players by using these methods but yet "Massive" won't do anything about it? Why? Is this a fair judgement in the balance of systems?

    Sure, the damage glitch gave way to unintended excessive damage output and it allowed players to clear legendary missions with ease, easily beat time trials, rank up in leader-boards with impossible numbers, gave an unfair advantage in (PVP) and by doing so, they got what they deserved for abusing the exploit but then it brings back to the point of previous exploits and glitches that existed before the damage glitch but yet players that abused the methods did not receive any kind of punishment.

    Do you see why players that used the damage glitch are trying to make a counter-argument? (maybe you don't but,) for the majority that used the glitch have owned up to the fact that they deserve the ban but yet, many of you that reply to their owning up, continuously flame, troll, bash them. What validates your reason to continuously being negative towards them? What constitutes your reason to do so? Is it your egotistic ways? Does it give you pride and pleasure to continuously hurting others by doing what your doing? What if you were in their shoes and you received the same amount of negative treatment? How would you feel then?

    As stated earlier, long before the damage glitch existed other exploits and glitches existed and players have used this method to gain unwanted, unintended advantages but yet they get to continue roaming free like nothing happened. This is one major factor to why the current wave of players that got suspended are trying to make a valid argument and trying to reason with the community for the mere fact that, they got punished but previous exploiters and glitchers did not. These wave of players got hit the hardest while previous exploiters and glitchers get the free card. It's sad that many of you fail or not want to understand their point of view or even have an ounce of wanting to understand and just bash on them and be negative towards them.

    With that, I leave you with your thoughts.

    Thanks a lot for feeling us and understanding the predicament of the situation we are in right now. But I'm sorry to tell you that your words will fell over dead ears. No one want to understand nor to feel our situation whatever or however you explain it. Sad but true story.

    Are you addressing the Cheater cheaterson ban brigade? If so you’re wasting your time, their way past reason.

    I’m not flaming, I’m being dead honest. This ban has taken all reason, sensibility, and ability to have a rational conversation.

    It’ll be a lot of...

    Cheater bad! Ban cheater! Consequence, accountability! You deserve! Massive best!

    But... I hope I’m wrong, Good luck.

    You know, if it weren't for the plethora of forum posts a week ago about how nobody will be banned, and 100s of people gloating about using the glitch, I would honestly feel bad, but at this point. I don't care anymore.

    What worries me is, after all these people get unbanned, they wont care anymore and will continue to do so, unless it's fixed by then, ruining the DZ and leaderboards with zero regard until they're perma banned.

    Don't care what anybodies POV is.

    TOS clearly state actions that can be taken.

    TOS is decided on by the Company.

    TOS was signed/accepted by you the minute you entered the game.

    TOS was signed/accepted the minute you registered on forums.

    UBI decided to pull the ban hammer. Don't care if you fess up or not. You got caught, you got banned. IMO, it should have been a perm ban.

    If you want to defend being a "criminal" in essence, that tells me that IRL you probably cheat/lie/steal/take shortcuts also. You don't just decide to CHEAT at a game. You 99% actually do this in life....

    Be glad you only got slapped for 7 days....

    Next time, DON'T do it...

    I've yet to see a cheater admit they deserve both the suspension (it is not a ban) and the rollback.

    I've seen several people on discord own up and admit they're getting what they deserve.

    A lot of the people complaining here probably had some good loot and dont care about the ban and are more pissed at the rollback.

    Let’s apply CCBB logic. Last time I got a speeding ticket I didn’t go door to door apologizing to my community. I paid the ticket.

    No one owes you an apology...

    You cheated in a video game, so you’re a criminal in real life.

    See all sense of reason...

    Still doesn’t give you him or anyone else the right to an apology.
