Well why not? Given how they restored so many cheaters one never knows. They are making money off this after all by selling accounts with top 3s. The pvp discord also had most credit exploits so pvpers also were good with credits which they could sell for hundreds of dollars to credit sellers.

So by getting direct contact with some one in bioware and giving him a share of the profit...... why not? But thats just a theory, I do not suppose the money would be enough for a Bioware employee. He might rather be helping them out of friendship ot so.

Think about what your'e saying lol. You're implying that someone would risk their job security to give some randoms on the internet a couple top 3 titles, in exchange for risking their reputation, income, and potentially healthcare benefits that they get from working at BW Austin, in exchange for...a couple hundred dollars?

An employee would risk all of that just to give someone a virtual title that has no meaning outside of this PvP forum, a title that literally most PvErs and casual players in this game won't even understand what it means?

I was with you at first dude, there are cheaters who need to be banned. But at this point, I feel like you're a bit too invested into this game if you're thinking that this is some conspiracy with deep meaning. It's literally probably as simple as: BW doesn't have enough man power to fix the issues, or more blatantly, doesn't care, which is the more likely of the two. I know it's hard to accept that the devs don't care about PvP in this game, and that it's easier to come up with outlandish conspiracies, but at some point you have to take a step back and read what you're typing lol.

I said its only a theory. The person does not have to work at Bioware Austin, there are, and were, positions like that in Ireland and even Köln. Those people dont have to be dealing with unknow players but friends. Its just a theory to keep the thread rolling

The entire community minus those who are in said player's mafia circle are in shocked this came to pass. It's a huge red flag for anyone who is following the situation.

If the had found evidence in the first place, after who knows how many reports, why would they coward back and start restoring players. I get that they might have made a mistake, but it certainly wasn't this specific ''player''.
Only got to play the first week and then I broke my collarbone in a motorcycle accident, so I didn't get to play the rest of S10. Either way though, if everyone knows who the cheaters are, even if they slip through the cracks, they won't be respected by anyone, so what does it matter?
