In an ideal world there would be no cheats, no (need for) lawyers, no bankers and things would be much better. It's not an ideal world.


I agree, it's not, and people should be more careful. But at the same time it's just strange to me to see someone actually trying to clean up an online community and make it more ideal labeled as "pathetic" and a "snitch," as if a cheater's right to waste other people's time and pleasure is more important and people should just accept someone bragging about acting poorly in a social context. I don't think that's very productive behavior.


The thing is they're not really going to accomplish anything. Okay the accounts were reported. Great. Good chance no one is ever going to look at it and nothing will happen. The only thing accomplished here was the original poster trying to gain brownie points for doing a good boy thing (and then bragging about it).


Btw, they definitely did not find my steam account or actually report me. Even if they did, it’s literally a free shooter. Id be on another account within minutes. Yes I’m aware of how to get around HWID/IP bans…

Glad to see that my comment caused quite the shit storm though.
