7.7 Cheating Outside of TPG

Player demos submitted to TPG and reviewed are subject to the same rule restrictions as if played in a TPG match. This includes, but is not limited to, cheating, wall hacking, and map exploiting. Players will be held to the same violation standards as those listed previously.
Beware pubbers! Nade glitching axis spawn on Avalanche can get you suspended from TPG! :lol:

Well at least it's not limited to just map exploiting outside of league play. I hope to see some bans for quickswitching in a pub server. I know some on-point admins in multiple servers who will have no problem extraditing players for such egregious war crimes.

Pretty sure this is only relevant to servers with a league config running. Cheating in pubs is still TPG-legal as far as I know.

You can thank me for the specifics of this rule. And Rob. And Jules Winnfield. And the BAW pub.

Pretty sure cheating in pubs has always got people banned since the existence of competitive DOD in leagues. If a demo is turned in of someone cheating in a pub CAL and TPG have always banned that player.

Now I've never heard of anyone getting suspended for map exploiting in a pub before, but apparently that is in rules lol. I think you should be allowed to map exploit on pubs in my personal opinion. Cheating is completely different. I don't even think cheats should even be on your machine.

Not according to the rules. Again: you're welcome.

Well if you can cheat by using the avalanche nade glitch then I should be able to use wall hack. An unfair edge is an unfair edge, bro.

A gentleman's agreement!

Cheating outside of TPG
It has been brought to my attention, along with extra input and opinions from those around the community, that cheating in scrims and 12 mans is becoming more frequent these days. While being active in the community myself, I have to say I don't find it hard to believe. I have let this go under the radar for too long. People have even been so careless as to admit it within the TPG support tickets. This has got to stop, and the TPG admins will do what we can to prevent it as much as possible.

So from this point on, any evidence submitted to us which shows someone cheating in a server represented by any league config will be taken as evidence to suspend and/or ban from TPG. There has been handfuls of people who have come to us in recent weeks saying they have demos of someone cheating in a scrim, and up until this point we haven't extended our rules there. Now that is going change. As of 48 hours from this announcement, suspensions will start being issued out. During that time the TPG rules will be amended to reflect the new policy.

As it stands, this is the last word on this issue. We currently do not accept pub demos. That doesn't mean TPG promotes or condones cheating in pubs, but there are far too many variables that we cannot control or account for. We are not the DoD police and there are only so many demos that we can watch per week(time constraints/AC man power), so a line has to be drawn somewhere. At some point, the players in the community have to accept responsibility and behave in some sort of adult manner, which includes things like not cheating in pubs, or including cheaters in 12 mans, general trolling just to piss people off, etc.

Maybe one day we will extend our rules to pubs, maybe next season. I would love to ban the idiots that go into pubs to ruin other people's playing experience. Contact Pat if you want to be an AC :)

Anyone who has ever played against me on chemille [in a pub circa winter 2011-2012] will forever remember the horror.
