Yes it does. If you had read my previous posts you would see that I believe that guy was cheating.

What about a guy who makes over 5 million in the market, but only makes about 10k "exploiting" the cheat?

I'm sure you have a strong opinion on that one.

If they knowingly did the exploit, then yes.

Until they are proven innocent they are cheaters PERIOD
I haven't done any "defending" because I don't know the facts - and neither do you. I am asking for answers and speculating with others based on their stated experiences.

SDS has not explained the exploit and their so-called methodology for detecting the "cheaters." So, without knowing any of the individual facts or the method for detection on a system that has been riddled with bugs from developers that first stated they are 100% sure, but have since stated they are looking at it again - you are sitting here calling people "cheaters" as if there is anything more to it than the fact it just provides you perverse pleasure to do so.

It seems to me that you are the one that is overdoing it.

Correct. Yes, if they knowingly did the exploit.

And, if you look at the transactions, it should be fairly obvious as to whether the glitch was triggered intentionally or accidentally because the nature of the orders would be significantly different.

For example the pitching guy (rated number 1) some of this offending transactions were for only a few hundred stubs. His entire list of transactions is more than 10,000.00 for millions of stubs.

If you can't see the difference between that and someone that just cleared, re-loaded, cleared, re-loaded, cleared, etc. a bunch of over market bids - I would suggest you wouldn't make for a competent detective.

Pretty much waiting on SDS at this point. This is going nowhere until then.

The longer they take, though, the messier this gets. They'll need to either double down on their initial stance or figure out what they did wrong and how to backtrack pretty soon I'd imagine.

It seems like they are waiting for the initial uproar to die down a bit, but it doesn't look like it is.

On a side note, I decided to play a game of MLB earlier after not playing for a couple of weeks. Ten minutes in to my session, my internet goes down for the first time in a year and is still down as we speak. It's hard to speculate why my internet has gone down. It's just weird.

Re: SCEA Bans Many Players for Using Exploits in MLB The Show 16

I was one of the players banned for the exploit. At least I think I was the exploit, since they have not replied to my emails, or contacted me about the ban. I did not use this exploit. I have never moved cards with a PC and PS3 together. I have an impeccable reputation in the show as well as the MUT community. I have not violated the TOS in any way. I don't expect anyone to just believe me, because you don't know me. But all I can say is that I'm telling the truth. Many others are as well. A lot of really good people were banned, AND PUBLICLY HUMILIATED, for no good reason. This whole thing was a mistake made by SDS. I know that sounds unlikely, but again, it's the truth. I'm sure there were some that exploited the market, I'm also sure that most did not. I think they put their faith in a process that did not return accurate results. I hope they make this right, I'd actually like to continue to be a customer. But I've really lost my faith in SDS's ability to do the right thing. Those who know me in these communities, know I'm innocent. I know I'm innocent. I just hope my good reputation pays off.
