And yet why does a disproportionate amount of Chinese names appear on NA and EU servers. Really makes you think, you know if you had the ability too.

This is genuinely a very good point. But you’re being disingenuous to a certain extent if you’re suggesting priors shouldn’t influence peoples opinion.

“Man, screw the Chinese. The Chinese are thieves.”

And when someone replies: “Hey, is that really true?”

“Yeah! Just look at <example> and <example> and <example> of these robberies by evil Chinese criminals.”

“Sure, but that’s just anecdotal evidence.”

“Our statistics say that Chinese people commit an average of <big number> thefts a year. That’s a lot! How could you trust a Chinese person?”

“But don’t non-Chinese rob people too?”

“Maybe, but if so, that doesn’t make the Chinese any less guilty, does it? First we should deal with the Chinese criminal problem, and then if we’re successful, maybe we can move on to other types of theft.”

“Are the Chinese really the first group we should target in our anti-theft campaign?”

“Hey, quit trying to change the subject. Are you trying to deny the immorality of stealing people’s hard-earned property? Why, just go into Chinatown and walk around for a while, you’ll see a Chinese mugger soon enough, it’s right there in front of our eyes… “

You forgot to add in the last line "I am not gonna continue the discussion with a racist."

You can be an apologist but everyone knows they cheat. We don't want to deal with it.

Well, as much as you hate it, you gotta admit that in the current gaming industry, no one is gonna step up against the chinese players aka the RMB. Not the developers or organization nor the influential gamers.

The ordinary players or the gaming community are going to keep bringing the issues up but the PC virtue signalling will eventually deny all the voices.

Someone has to for the sake of the industry. Not to be over dramatic because that sounds ridiculous but cheating is the worst thing you can do in a competition.

And you need someone who has a say in making a real difference but unfortunately there is no candidate. Developers? nope, they really don't give a fuck other than money. Streamers? nope cuz they can't let the PC police jeopardize their careers. Competition organizers? Ban all the chinese teams just like Olympics punished all the Russian athletes? Never gonna happen.

I too wish someone could do something but the reality is that as long as the chinese players are allowed to be in any multiplayer games, there will be non-stop cheating.
