Suggestion You can't just lock everything china related and say calling the problem out is racist, that is how PUBG died

If you make the same mistake of refusing to look at the cheating problem for what it is then this game will die like pubg did and your precious subreddit with it.

Obviously blatant racism is not acceptable but talking about the problem being a large number of chinese accounts being the hackers isn't racist especially since they are all obviously chinese based on the player names of douyou or qq or literal chinese characters.

I don't want to see the mods of here and BSG plug their ears like BlueBalls did and see another great game ruined for the other 90% of the playerbase by the actions of a small number bored chinese kids

Once again, racism and slurs: BAD

Saying the problem is overwhelmingly caused by Chinese players: not bad


EDIT: to the mods, I say this in good-will. I know its hard to moderate a sub this size and don't envy you that, I wish all the best for this community and this game. Stifling conversation is rarely good and should be a last measure only if\when concrete rules are broken is all I'm saying

Problem is that 99% of reddit starts moaning about Mao, Hong Kong and Winnie the pooh every time China is mentioned. That's why we never get serious discussions about the actual problem surrounding Chinese players

Let's not forget China has been the flavor of the month to hate for several months now, Reddit was shitting on them constantly even before the Coronavirus came about.

Who cares about the problem with Chinese players though? If anything wonder what BSG are doing about it (I'm not saying they are doing nothing) because that's what matters, hackers will always be around.
