New anticheat method?

0 Frags +

I've noticed from recent higher-profile cheating cases that the trend is to share clips of gameplay, usually with some convincing clips mixed in with mundane ones, and users analyze the gameplay. While this makes sense as a direct means to spot cheated gameplay, still it makes things difficult if a cheater is trying particularly hard to conceal their cheats in the gameplay.
One common trend I've noticed, and one which cheaters simply can't seem to hide, is the Cheater Personality. Think back to recent examples and you'll find in every case someone who is either emo or emo-adjacent, usually egotistical, and uses a mask of aloofness to shield from sharing real thoughts and emotions.
While I'm sure this method of anticheat would have some false positives, i think that's simply a worthwhile sacrifice the community should make to ensure the integrity and fairness of competitive Team Fortress 2, thank you.

logically this makes perfect sense, cheating is inherently an antisocial practice so its not unreasonable to see other antisocial tendencies in people who cheat. add in a general lack of social awareness that is decently rampant in online communities and you have a perfect recipe for the Cheater Personality. excellent analysis.

seems like a win win, you ban them and either they're cheaters, or they actually do care and had the cringe emo aesthetic which should be bannable on its own

I would hardly trust anyone, much less anyone in this community to psycho-analyze players to try to figure out if they're cheating or not

I think we can expedite the process by auto-banning anyone with an emo profile picture on RGL.
Case in point:

u guys should see some of the profiles of people who cheat in bigger games like CS, especially hvh players. these guys all come machine stamped from a conveyer belt. it's honestly gotten to the point that if it's a steam game and i suspect them of cheating, one quick look at the profile and you can just tell instantly if they are or not

"he may have been staring at people through walls but his noble browline and cheekbones are not that of a cheater"
