I tried looking up stats of cheater by country. All I could find was VAC ban data on CS:GO. Russia was number 2. Wanna guess who was number one?

Wanna guess who was number one? (Hint, it's not Brazil) If a country takes over a server... for example Citadel and Russians... and the District chat is nearly exclusively in Cyrillic... and players on missions often kick non-Cyrillic writing players (yea just dont write anything or hope to communicate. I played on Innova and it was fine, but still... it's a handicap.) And if said country has a high amount of cheaters... disproportionate amount of cheaters.... then it's a serious problem that needs to be addressed if anyone hopes to salvage this game. Ignoring the problems doesn't make them go away. I also find it stupid that you wear the SPCT tag, since you ONLY play on one of two servers... you don't have a fricken CLUE what the actual state of this game is. 5 minutes ago, CookiePuss said: 6 minutes ago, NotTheEnforcer said: It's not "xenophobia" to state factually correct arguments like Russians and Brazilians cover the majority of the cheater-base.

I mean seriously, log in and you need command of foreign languages to follow the District chat, that's how bad it is. I'm not sayimg Americans don't have cheaters but dang... or this 1 hour ago, Rebelliousness said: [...] or that Brazilians haven't taken over Jericho... or that cheater clans from these respective countries don't dominate or fill the district chat with their language? Now let me ask you an HONEST question. How many English speaking players have been kicked from missions unjustly, simply because they aren't Brazilian or Russian? And then tell ME about your melting snowflake leftist "xenophobia." Not an AMERICAN ONLY.... [...] [...]or spams District chat calling every non-Brazilian a "gringo" (racial put-down). How many Americans... let alone anyone else... is going to be happy logging into a game like that? The answer is they WON'T and they don't. or this 48 minutes ago, Rebelliousness said: [...] And yes, Jericho has a problem with Brazlian cheaters as well, and also hostile toward non-Brazilians. I mean look at the times in District chat they call out "gringo." Seriously, foreigners calling Americans foreigners on an American server... and that's okay? When the US server is populated predominantly by Brazilians... don't you think it warrants an evaluation? wasnt talking about jericho AT ALL i guess now all the money citadel makes is paid by americans, citadel is full of americans (the only ones that pay) and hostile brazilians, and all you can read in chat is "gringo" and portuguese in citadel. and those times you said "jericho", its just a silly typo for "citadel", you just confused the server name button you got in your custom made keyboard.

TheOppositePolarBear 93 Posted January 16, 2019 16 minutes ago, NotTheEnforcer said: While Hoplon *DID* bring a needed boost to pop (Jericho) when the servers originally died, this is no longer the case. We now have more than enough players that if Hoplon was recreated, we'd still have plenty of people. It's not "xenophobia" to state factually correct arguments like Russians and Brazilians cover the majority of the cheater-base. A certain popular cheat provider is literally based in Brazil. Problem is, a lot of sketchy shit happens after-hours. From about 5PM EST onwards, Brazilians basically invade the server and the amount of sketchy or otherwise questionable actions rises substantially. This is not a placebo either, I noticed the questionable actions long before I noticed that is was mainly Brazilians doing them. Xenophobia is judgement without base. Simply hating another country or it's people because it isn't/they aren't yours. I don't hate people from Brazil, I don't hate Brazil. I just hate the fact that a lot of cheaters come from it and I wish we could bring back Hoplon so that we wouldn't have to be the main victims of such a group.

The fact you can defend this absurd position and tell people, childishly to just "learn Russian" speaks volumes about you.

Just like your ludicrous "xenophobia" comment... when if there's any, it's Russians on Citadel who really don't like non-Russians at all. I do not think it's the russians themselves I played on all servers and tbh it's rather selective perception. In the old days when you had 10 maddies on the server and 4 were russians you just had 40% russians trashtalking and 6 others. Now you have 8 of 10 maddies being russians because there are less of the regular maddies, and so its 80% russian doing the trash talk. But that's not because the russians took over the server it's just because the others left the game already now, making it look like there are more russians but in reality it's not it' just less russians that left. There were lots of russians back when obeya had even 2.5k people online in the evenings, in the end the russians were enough so that G1 decided that an own russian server would do it. and this conclusion came by the russian pop on the old servers, So the russians were always there just in relation to the others were less visible within the mass.
