how many people are there on the anticheat team? i feel like even with the bottleneck of them needing to be 100% certain, it shouldn't take so long to punish cheaters when there's more than circumstantial evidence against them.
In cases like sampha, he wasn't even initially smited by the anticheat team's doing, rather it was for failing to upload demos for the 3rd time.
garm stated that he had submitted evidence nearly 20 days prior to creating his forum post, so forgive me for finding it hard to believe that they [AC team] have coincidentally decided that enough evidence has been collected to indict sampha right after playoff teams threatened to boycott yet another season.
exaIt should also be noted that publicizing a potential suspect has no impact on how quickly a case gets handled by RGL AC.
the only justification is the commonly cited one which is that the team is severely understaffed and hardly paid (if at all). In which case, how does it make sense to hold the team to such a high standard when there are literal hundreds of players competing in the league?
Also somewhat unrelated but how come cheating bans aren’t permanent? I kind of understand not wanting to punish players in lower divs too harshly, but in a paid division with prize pools, it’s completely illogical to allow players to re-enter the league.
Especially when they show no remorse for cheating in the first place, as was the case with Elijah and nowsampha, who’s ban expires in 2028 btw.
