I have a positive Faith McCarron bias as she was always pretty cool to me. She also put enough time into the game to make me believe that her high scores and good gameplay were from skill developed over that time. She fought well and worked hard.

As for the rest of the banned cheaters... all I want to say about that is: "Good riddance."

I hear Lance Armstrong was also a stand up fella....

Private lobby, IS light mechs only 1v1. I'm usually on 1400 GMT. ShinVector will be neutral observer and recording coz he is in my timezone. BTW, you have more to lose than me, I'm just a NOBODY in a unit that you hold in contempt.

Strange how I got involved in this..
But whatever I am bored anyway.. Hopefully real life doesn't get in the way tonight.

By the way.. Need needs two people with premium time to do custom private match and I do have premium running.
Need another.

FOOOD FIGHT !!

Why IS lights? Why not just take whatever mech you want? In the spirit of modpud, you can go with the MechMasters route and only specify the map and weight class.

Good idea...

Mech Masters Rules.
It will be Forest Colony.
Conquest.
You can only Cap Theta ! (Is that still the middle one ?)
Either win by Cap or kill your enemy !
2 out of 3 ?

Faith was always cool with me, so you won't find me speaking ill of her.

I am sort of in the same predicament.
I was fine with her as a comrade too but I won't condone cheating, if it's found to true.

I really hope PGI reviewed actual gameplay of the person banned and caught them red handed cheating with their own account. Hiazz....

No Twitter acc so can't give my 2cents. But PGI should just approach Viewqwest in Singapore, I suspect VQ will be crazy enuff to do it FOC for the small number of South East Asian players or even have a dedicated regional reroute pipeline to the NA server. If you're on Twitter maybe you could #hashtag or whatever thing they do with Twitter to bring this proposition to VQ's attention.

Seriously? Why not? when she went out of her way to attack us on the forums, in game, almost in person: yet the "Great and Mighty" 4TCR would back her up because she was such a "good player"

Do you even read through her post? I've known most of 4TCR for over 2 years, yet her attitude was the only reason I would not join their unit. Now, I'm a better person because of it.

Careful Stone.

It is very disappointing to see any Capellan betray us, especially a highly prominent one. It creates a lot of misplaced aggression and strife. Right or wrong, Faith is dead to this community. Some will miss her, some won't, but all of us were hurt by players who cheated.

Don't take it out on each other. Search your hearts and you'll recognize an essential truth.

Somehow, this is the Davions' fault.

Take it out on them.

Uhhh this is not just for SEA... More to Australia/Oceanic actually but global position and internet connectivity wise, Australia sucks.
Singapore is usually chosen because a lot of internet backbone provider terminates here and it makes a good centralised area to serve the region.
Australia should get around 80ms ping from Singapore.
Microsoft also has a cloud datacenter in Singapore and it used for games like Titanfall.

Why? I understand "Unit Pride" but posting on the forums supporting a person who is trolling and attacking other Liao players is what I'm in reference to.
[HLGK] wouldn't "Like" any post that a member would make if it attacked another Liao Loyalist unit. Yet every post where she attacked [HLGK] you guys would like......

I understand that our unit structure is not everyone's "Cup of Tea," but we are serious about MWO. You have to empty your cup and wash it out, to taste our tea.

And she's gone now. It's okay. She can't hurt you anymore.

Sounds like a challenge to me, any takers? If not, then it's you and me Zvolimir next on the dueling field, I'll stand proxy for 4TCR and continue defending their honor.

[Ingvay]

Thanks..but we don't need our honor defended. Two players in our unit were caught cheating. As a unit we had no knowledge of this activity. We'll wear it though...because we're big boys and girls.

We certainly don't need anyone fighting out battles for us. We'll get through this, and two cheaters are now gone from our ranks.

Well I'm here for ya's... I don't like seeing a good unit get kicked while it's down.

Well said. No one was bagging on the unit.

As I said, no one was bagging on the unit. 4TCR knows the score here, at least their remaining leadership does. The problem that we had was with one very vocal player who was removed. Don't misconstrue any of this because you don't have the background.

[ArchangelKenko]

It's one thing for us to voice
grievances of what happened here. I don't think it would be fair of us to be hostile in return at all.
