you must have missed the grand finale, where punkbuster decided one day to ban anyone and everyone who logged in shortly thereafter it was put out to pasture

i think he’s referring to pb banning for any number of harmless programs i would assume that an anticheat used by some of the biggest games around is a little better than that tho

hirarious

i thank i’d rather you start cheating again than continue to neglect your proper period usage

odd

please don’t have a serious discussion over my shitpost it almost makes me feel bad

i can’t even dislike this because i don’t have any reactions left

it would have been nice, but i think the riots from orbit unbanning all those cheater accounts without any changes to the anticheat would have imploded the game before we got the mass re-ban

yeah all the unsilenced variants can still drop, aside from the ‘gold’ which never made it into the game iirc

out of likes

this is why we can’t have player GMs with banning powers

you seem to feel quite strongly about this

iirc i think he said he hasn’t played much yet but he’s watched a lot of streams tbh he seemed pretty knowledgeable during the q&a altho i guess it would be a warning sign if he decided to buy apb without knowing anything lol

oh no i just have a strange fascination with object heads edit: i forgot @NotZombieBiscuit ruined unlimited reactions for everyone

that’s not how freedom of speech works

apb: stale memes

lol i was actually right? i just threw some half remembered high school social studies terms together lmao

i think the ursus feels pretty nice

this is an oligarchal republic not a democracy

what are these garbage choices i think we should revoke the chat rights of golds

ah that’s a good point then again we have no shortage of controversial community memebers lol

yeah i’m not saying lock everyone down but it’s kind of dumb to use “it happens everywhere” as an excuse not to try and fix the intentional noobstomping

idk if that would really happen tho, i don’t think there’s any actual effects from excessive likes/dislikes other than the number next to your name no artificial thread dropping/raising minimizes the echo chambers imo

yes but in cargo you can also just switch lobbies in 30 seconds not always an option in apb, especially with the current population answer questions tbh they probably have their own internal report system for people breaking the rules, they just don’t have instaban power

i think punk buster used to have an issue since it’s technically “injecting” files its on you if you want to risk that with pb’s big brother battleye lol
