>>30718083I agree, but it's not something I expect to happen quickly. Or at the very least, it's not something I feel only GF should be responsible for. I feel like people shouldn't fucking cheat. We should all know better than to do so. It's fucking cheating. I think bans for cheating should be more intense, like fuck banning people from a tourney and then letting them back in the next, ban them for life. And Judges clearly aren't enough, we need people policing these places and finding cheaters. Even just people policing streams and reporting shit to TCPI judges might've missed. The guy who had a Porygon in an illegal ball this last tourney ducked out himself. He wasn't disqualified or banned, he was found out by online people and quietly excused himself after the match because of it. These people do this shit all the time, I want people to be afraid of getting found out. I want the tourney scene to quake with fear when they do illegal shit. We need people who are willing to go through twitter posts of competitors and find them talking about injection platforms, we need better ways of making sure no one has a pirated copy of the game. We need to stick more aware people in the backstage areas to keep their eyes on people to make sure they aren't doing this shit. We need a way to make these people realize it's not okay to cheat. Because clearly only treating them like prisoners or children is going to work.
Also, maybe checking EVs on GFs behalf, for fucks sake. That's like, the one thing they left out and it's fucking huge. Balls, too, maybe. And names vs. foreign tags, maybe. I know it sounds like I'm being extreme, but this shit needs to stop.
