This is video footage of me being glitched multiple times by merc Ariana, of Ancient Exiles, during a tournament match (Synergy vs. AE)

as you can clearly see and hear, the melee glitch was exploited and clearly changed the outcome of the match.

All of this during CCP's marquee "PRIME LEAGUE" tournament.

Members of my corp sent this video in to urgent fury, contacted devs in IRC, and sent in support tickets.

Did CCP remove AE from the tourney?
No!
Did CCP dock AE points for using a game-breaking glitch in the tourney?
No!
Did CCP so much as contact their members to give them a slap on the wrist, or say "stop it?"
NO!

How in good conscience can the developers can allow a team who has been observed, and recorded CHEATING in an OFFICIAL THREE MONTH LONG TOURNAMENT to not only continue to participate, but win the tourney overall?

In this thread you will probably see a lot of AE damage control, saying things like "LOL WE STOPPED" and "IT DIDNT MATTER LEL" when Ariana recorded nearly 100+ kills in the 3 matches against us, and none of that reasoning changes the fact that they were recorded using a game breaking glitch in the tournament.

The worst part of all of this, is because CCP never took any action, more deserving corps never got their shot in the final rounds.

Why won't CCP do anything?
Do they not care anymore?
Have they given up on their game?
Will devs continue to turn a blind eye to this thread and my pleas for help in the announcements section, support tickets and IRC?

Furthermore, what would the community do? Ban their corp from the tourney for condoning and knowingly exploiting a game breaking glitch? dock them points? Kick them out of the semifinals and replace them with a more deserving team?

Also, how do you feel about CCP turning a blind eye to this entire fiasco, ignoring people's cries for help they're losing games because the other team is CHEATING?

Stay tuned.

***It has also been brought to my attention Ancient Exiles registered and used a player after sign-ups were closed. What the french was just disqualified for this, so an official CCP audit is requested***

We also have an admission of guilt by the glitcher himself!

What do you want me to do say sorry? I'm not sorry for using the glitch. Its not my fault it wasn't against the event rules or that I never received a warning. What makes it wrong? With the the numerous broken mechanics, unbalanced weapon system, the game itself is wrong. Stop comparing a broken video game to real life. I know glitching isn't fun for the other side or is it in anyway honorable. I never said I didn't use the exploit, and will never say sorry. HTFU QQ moar

HTFU QQ moar This is why people should be banned for using an exploit. People go around intentionally taking advantage of an exploit and there is nothing that is done. So far i have seen 3 games that took the same view CCP does one of them was a space game from long ago where people started making scripts for the game. At first scripts were not allowed. Then the company stopped giving a dam then shortly after the game was shut off. Exploits are annoying frustrating and should not be allowed. Mind you its one thing if its something that can be done accidently but it is something very different when done intentionally and should be punished perhaps at first with a 1 week suspension then 1 month then lifetime.
