Well, there's that Tiggs joke-pic there too, yeah, I knew that would get more attention, but the meme is what the cheater said in that comment, lol.

Well, is not a meme, this is a true one, is gold, lol

Granted, so now your corruptions are benevolent but everyone else is corrupting all your wishes and the wishes of everyone else for ever in the most extremist version of yourself so now the world sinks in total chaos and destruction. (See? Already working!) I wish I could shot laser beams from my fingers.

That's actually because of ninja-bans where they just blocked an entire account from accessing every single feature of the forums. A regular ban should allow you to at least browse or use your private message system. You have two choices, use private browsing or delete the history log including active sessions.

I think that's because some people's idea of justice is very different from how the law system actually works in the modern civilization. Not labeling anyone particularly here, but trying to put myself in such character, I think that if I find out that against the same situation someone would take a totally different decision of how I was taught about it, then probably I'd be subconsciously feeling that someone is attacking my rights. If I'm such a person who thinks that justice has to be applied by my own, either because I was taught about the good and evil in extremist terms or because the system I live in is very complicated and its flaws allows evil people to do all kind of bad things, I'd be very encouraged of thinking that anyone suspected of a crime should be put in isolation until we can prove he is not a dangerous element in the society. But I am someone who thinks that no single person should have any power over other people's life too, either the criminal who murders someone or the cop who arrests or kills a criminal are both on a situation that I can't assume any of them enjoy being there, so I think that's the reason why the ones enforcing the law in all its spheres, cops, judges, prosecutors, government agencies, everyone representing an institution is supposed to receive intense training and years of education in most of the cases, and that's why we as simple civilians shouldn't interfere in the process unless we are required to (such as testifying), because otherwise we would start a witch hunt against anyone who 'doesn't fit' with our conception of a 'perfect society'. People can fail, we make a lot of mistakes and a police officer, a prosecutor, a judge, even a president are humans and can do mistakes too, that's why the laws are made and every institution has their methods, because when the human mind might fail then it can always stick to the rules to make sure everything will work as intended, this goes for the ones in the side of law but also in the side of the bad guys when someone commits a crime is someone who suffered a deviation of his nature at some point and needs help, most of the times it is too late and there's no help but a time in jail or the rest of their life in it, of course that if someone is proven guilty we must put the dangerous elements of our society out of reach, but if we can understand the reasons and the context and then bring the evidence of such person intentions and actions, then we should analyze each case meticulously before we make a decision and stick to the rules we previously stated to take a properly measured action. If we only judge without listening to what people have to prove and we don't give them the chance to provide evidence then, at least, we should be able to prove 100% that the person is guilty of what is being accused . Or you rather want to have the whole APB player base banned for no reason as have been proved that Tiggs or whoever was behind FairFight manual bans have been doing? Just to add something else, the case of murderers is a very sensible subject, because since murdering is considered the worst crime a human being could ever do, it is so terrifying of thinking that someone could kill us that we don't want to have to live with that fear, so in the need of finding the person responsible of such threat we can subconsciously fall into desperation and impulsively attempt to fix it by our own, which leads to more killings that might be not only unjustified, but wrong. Think about this: you have an argue where both parties have their reasons but none of you can find an understanding point, the guy you are arguing with pulls a gun and aims at you, you react faster and shoot him to dead. Okay, self-defense, you made use of your right there but the family of this guy don't know this and wants to kill you. What's next? Now, let's say you are the closest family member of such person who got killed in a confusing discussion but you are told that the one who was right in that arguing they had was your beloved one and that he was unfairly killed. You would claim for the right to kill that murderer or put him in jail, right? What if no one was there to testify and they just take your word because someone told you that it was heard from outside that they argued about a football match and this person providing a vague testimony was indeed sympathizing with one of both parties so that's why he told you that your family member was right and the other one was wrong? Let's just put everybody in jail till we can prove their innocence then? And who was there to tell who was right or wrong then? But disregarding who was wrong or right, is there a justification for any of them to shot to each other? To take the life away from another person? To condemn a family to such tragedy? Wouldn't you agree that it is better to create a method to prevent and correct such deviations of our human nature? That's the key of our evolution as an advanced civilization, we can gather to share our knowledge and experiences, analyze the history and our ancestors and learn, improve and progress. Then there is a wide spectrum, millions of degrees to measure what is right and what is wrong, but the truth is relative and dynamic and never absolute, our common sense will always guide us to do the right, but when it could fail, then we have the rules, and these were made (allegedly) to serve fair justice to everyone, to serve justice to life itself, which is the primordial gift everyone have. Also, the guys here were more clear and quick with their replies and clearly they know what are they talking about. While me? I doubt it! lol

I just came to say, all good but I'm not sure that you are actually in that picture, I'm convinced those were Saitrox, soffcatt and me, I took these. Anyways, I know this guy, we have been playing back in 2013, maybe earlier, and I remember his ban, we were all shocked because he cheated. I don't know, feels sad to see people regretting their actions you know, but it feels particularly sad when they say things like "I did it only after x years because of x reason" because when I look at them I just notice I never cheated in this game in my almost 7 years since I played for the first time. From the perspective of a company handling their business, I can understand that probably the numbers they see are a clear signal that these cheaters are potential customers, so it is fair that they focus on heal that relation with their players, I'm not against that at all. I welcome the decisions L.O. is announcing indeed, I welcome people who play video games to have second chances, going further indeed I think I would apply only temporary bans for everyone if I were handling something like this by my own, I'm convinced that giving a temp-ban on a cheater will make him regret, learn and try to return cleaner, specially after the shame of having his friends pointing fingers at him for that. A perma-ban only makes the cheater rage harder and return with the only will of destroying the game. What I can't support are people's lies, if we can't prove a lie I'm okay with forgiving and forgetting, but if I have solid evidence that someone lied to me or to anyone else then I could forgive but never forget. This guy wasn't lying anyways, I won't say he falls in that category because he never did. But I can tell from such experiences from people who got tempted (hey, I even made a whole post in the past telling my story of how I used to cheat in a different game when I was younger) is that when someone takes such decisions is not exactly a smart choice, and there's where I can't tell if people like that will fall in the same mistake again eventually. That's why I'm not worried for that kind of cheaters returning, they are more likely to cheat again maybe and if so then they'll get hammered in a blink, the ones that really worry me are these who are actually very smart and sneaky to hide that they cheat and that could actually manage to bypass BE and stick only to wallhacks while could be feeling also encouraged to keep doing it because they know who are the ones who also have been doing the same without getting caught yet. PS: Send me a private message anytime you want if you feel it, is a shame that you cheated but kudos for being transparent here. Spanish translation for Zeker: Anyways, are you sure guys that Matt Scott said "all the bans" will be lifted? Or only these where there is no evidence or FF flags? I thought he said only the ones who were wrongly handled would return. But now I think from what @Ritual said that all the FF bans will be lifted. Clarification on this?

Me wants. Jericho too, or anytime? Also, where's @MurkTheMerc? Murk, make the arrangements with WitchQueen!

Granted, but now your "mind" corrector is making you type things you don't want to let anyone know, so they know now. I wish I could have X-Ray vision.

Looking at all this again, it feels like G1 slowly turned off the lights of this game. Literally. In all meanings.

Used to look awesome, G1 slowly turned off the lights of this game:

Granted, but none of your wishes comes true, never ever. I wish I could fly, like floating at will.

Granted, but is still under test and development stages so you try it and you fall on an infinite loop of portals through the whole universe and never stops traveling. I wish I could visit the ancient civilizations.

I noticed when I'm browsing the Social District section here on forums that we have the Marketplace Auctions subforums in the top banner for easier access but I have this habit of instinctively search for new announces there too, I think it is because we had the feeds banner in the old forums, I'm providing screenshots: If you guys think this might be useful I for sure would request you to consider it and implement something like this in the future. Regards, Sal.

I think name change is more used by stalkers than by people getting stalked instead. Why would I have to change my name tag because of someone's else actions? Why would someone want to hide their ingame identity at all? I can understand the meaning of changing your name the same way you just change your clothes or your avatar's style. Yet I never got to understand why some people like to change their names and hide from other players while later ingame many of them are the same ones who are stalking others or trying to erase a footprint of their bad behaviors in the past. Hey, sorry if I'm going a bit off-topic with this, I totally support the name change function I just wanted to state my perception of the main use they do of it. If we are all friendly and nice to each other and the staff is there supporting us, then the stalkers and annoying players should be the ones changing their attitudes if they don't fit. Pretty much Gamersfirst policy was to charge on anything a player would request before they attempt to address the issue itself, so they eventually started selling name changes, friend list extensions, even some ingame mods that enable you to spot people through walls, aka: legit wallhacks, etc. _________________________________ Now on topic, this is also why some people refuse the idea of having players as GMs, in the past some people had privileged access to know all the alternative characters and name changes of some players. Didn't happen to me so I can't prove if it is bull or not, but someone told me once that got involved in a situation like that. Personally I always remember RICHARDS someone from the SPCT/SPCM teams bypassing the ignore function to insult me ingame when I told him he was cheating, lol, finally he got caught cheating and even discussing on forums about "triggerbot" being a grey area in the ToS, which just fueled the fire of the controversy, I think he got eventually banned but I'm not sure, anyone can do a quick search in the old forums to learn about, I'm not trying to start anything here. Ok, too much drama already; I support the presence of more staff ingame helping to moderate other players btw.

The stuff you do guys is so beyond my imagination, but gonna throw a few of the favorite ones I have:

Forum lag double post, so I'm editing this one and throwing this:

And my favorite one, pretty bad meme but with a very deep meaning:

Dumping: My entry for an old contest (2nd place ^_^) Bonus: And why not a video from inside the car editor? The only decent video I might have in my channel tbh, lol: You can see the evolution in these pics from basic templates to more complex and detailed designs, with plenty of awesome designers around there is so much inspiration and stuff to learn that I'm always trying to step further in my abilities and creativity with the car editor. Hope you guys enjoy, a bunch may be missing but I see if there's something worthy to update this post later. Regards!

I always look at your stuff as an inspiration and something to learn from, but I'm a huge failure at making clothing, so I guess I'll just buy from you at marketplace next time I need instead. And what about tattoos? These sick characters you made when Jericho/Joker was in all that ink thing are just dope.

Unrelated pic? There. Sounds just like the kind of fun I'm always looking for, count me in! Edit: I mean the T-25 thingy, not crashing districts! >__>

Pretty much this, when things are not always logic. rofl ^_^

I'm not sure if someone else would like to have this so I'm throwing this suggestion. When you place your mouse cursor over the avatar of a member we could have a button to follow him like this maybe? idk... Example: Edit: I mean, some times some people share useful info or they make interesting suggestions so I like to follow them and be their fanboi #1. #followxfollow ^__~

wait, what? I just joined like, 10 minutes ago

I could post this one, not biggie, epic grief: And I don't have any footage from these times but this picture is invaluable, the enforcer caught me and my guys doing massive ram raids and was so confused that he wouldn't even try to witness any of us, I'll try to find the screenshots I have.
