Playstation users can in fact use the g600 mouse and most keyboards.

But its third party. So okay, it is hardware and not software even if there might be software involved in order to instal it on a playstation. But it still is not something that comes with the game, or even a playstation. Therefor it gives those users an advantage over playstation players. So it is literally cheating.

EDIT: I hate that we, as players of the game, are so easily divided, purely because SE just can't get their ToS clear. The Japanese culture that condones and rewards doxing really does not help.

As far as rules go I feel like the ToS is pretty clear, but some people are just determined to see what they can get away with. Sort of like when we were little children, and a parent told us not to do something, and we took their statement as a suggestion rather than as the order it was intended to be.

I look at the forum and think people have traded in common sense for drama. This thread is just one example of many. I remind myself that most players are blissfully unaware of them, as only a tiny percentage of players make use of the forums.

Breakfast gives an unfair advantage over those that don't eat properly, right?

I hope I don't need to go into further detail than that.

Also, as divided as people are, I have nothing personal against anyone. <3

Dude this is how ToS works...........................
Have you never read a ToS in your life before ( wait, most people don't )?
ToS are rarely as ultra specific as people seem to think they always cast a wide net so that if they choose to act they can just point to it.
When you start getting too specific it also enters realms of absurdity and people will find ways around it to do things that are meant to not be okay just because it's not specifically mentioned.
If you're too specific then people will take it as an okay to go ahead and do things that weren't specifically mentioned even tho they're obviously not okay.

No one above the age of 9 uses the same mindset people are displaying on this forum in regards to this.
In real life people understand what is being implied and can use some common sense but suddenly online people act like SE is their parent and they think they're clever because they extrapolated the most absurd interpretation out of something that they said.

The crafting window in 2.0 use to work a little different. With the macro you could craft unlimited with one macro. Just like a bot would. Some people "claim" that they got punished for that. The window no longer works that way.



People A) need to relax and B) think a little. How many bans have actually been reported? I don't really watch streamers, but I thought they knew not to have stuff all over there screen. At least the few I have seen weren't showing anything. No one knows what type of weird thing you have on your PC. I do find the player card bans a little strange considering those were made completely in game without mods.

Some of the bans are funnily enough for something that is specifically mentioned as not allowed, which is advertising the use of them.
But then people conveniently ignore that.

But then don't Playstation 4 players get banned too for using gaming mouse like Logitech G600 when if i remember right you can use G buttons for keybinds like CTRL + [number] after binding them on Logitech G hub first and save it to Logitech G600 mouse onboard memory and then using keyboard on PS4 to remap CTRL + [number] key combinations for keybinds you want?
