Frontlines sucks Ultra megathread

So, it is better to not deal with the problem but complain about it on the forums? These people will never get banned then, you do not have to post names on the forums, create a discord make an investigation team full of the people who are accusing others of cheating and put out a video, post, something. Especially if doing a "little research" is all that is needed to expose these people.

Someone in linkshell said they're getting rid of Frontlines? I hope not, it has some problems but it's still pretty fun. I wish they'd fix it rather than just getting rid of it.

They're not getting rid of Frontlines, but they are reportedly making big changes in 7.1.

[EmilySummerstar]

That's good to hear. Some changes would be refreshing. I used to hate Frontlines too but then I figured how to just play zone. Usually on the flanks.

The purpose of mentioning it on the forums is precisely to raise awareness and to encourage people to report transgressions. Are there not enough PvP Discords already that could address this? Or is that not of interest to them?

I wouldn't be surprised if at least a couple of those PVP Discords (but certainly not all of them) prefer to keep it on the down low because they're havens for exactly the kind of people who like to use cheats, all while cackling with glee that the odds of getting caught are minuscule and the punishment when they are is nearly negligible. Which then just feeds back to the "why bother to report at all" mentality that accounts for *other* kinds of behavior going unchecked.

Wouldn't shock me, particularly since I've seen people on a couple of those Discord servers freely admit to using banned add-ons, though not ones that would give a PvP advantage.

The organization such servers provide would make mass reporting of lethargic play fairly trivial, but again other than organizing premades the substantive content seems rather thin IMO.

They are. The only public PVP server on Crystal has zero Frontline premades or queue syncs, just people posting screenshots of their 30-win/5-loss weeks that they attained via other groups.

There’s a public PvP Discord server for Crystal?

Meant to refer to PvP Revival. There are actually multiple DCs included.
