Banned for the biggest loot explosion in Path of Exile

so you report it and for your troubles u get banned lol

So there was a bug(which is not your fault) you instantly reported and then you tried the limits of the bug (which is fun) and got banned for it? 😂
Life is not fair.

company, who bans somebody who found exploit instead of thank him is terrible company. Exploits are basically mistakes they made, its not like you "stealing" from them or something like that.
Imagine it like: you have zoo... and some people find out, there is a hole in your fence and start going to your zoo for free, while also sharing this information with world. Instead of arresting those people, you should reward them with some free tickets, because they pointed on that issue.

If you release your product, for example pc game... and ESPECIALLY if people pay for it, its their right to use that product any way they like. If you made some mistake by not covering certain things and they use it to their advantage, its your fault, not their, you got absolutely no right to ban them. Thats my opinion on exploits.

this is how playing without loot filter feels like

big GGG L

based af. life isn't fair, it's not supposed to be. if life wasn't fair there would be no goals, no dreams, no sense of self.

I'm preparing to start playing Path of Exile for the first time sometime over the next week, and I'm genuinely trying to understand the priority queue debacle. So what if a few streamers got priority queue? It seriously doesn't seem like anything to even think twice about.

People honestly cry about streamers having priority access? I mean, i've seen so many streams where chat is literally crying that their streamer is in a long Q. Now they give priority and thats wrong aswell?

People are so easily offended nowadays its insane.

Has this really been 2 years...

It feels like yesterday.

Fuck reddit.

yea.... I don't think the ban was for a loot explosion, when the 2nd part of your video is titled "Finding the exploit" xD

Wow, some people are way to intense. Just a game people, relax!!!! I dont mind streamers getting priority in queue. they provide so much for the community and help people. I'm fairly new to the game and the learning curve is massive. Without content creators and streamers I would have quit the game already.

Empy : optimise a strat to farm using the provided mechanism
GGG : He can't do that, ban him or something

Dude you were SO above board on this. That’s actually a load of shit and I’m sorry that happened to you guys.

LMAO! life IS unfair. its unfair that these nobodies give you grief when all you wanted to do was stream the game for your audience. its unfair for them because you should BE ABLE to play the game and provide content for POE so that the game gets advertised more and draws in more player. its all unfair. thats life. its not a "stupid copout" when you say that on the other side of lifes die roll. if you happen to get "lucky" by being a successful streamer that puts so much fucking effort into his stream, you shouldnt get backlash if you get rewarded for your efforts. all these crybabies whining about playing the game when they are stuck in queue have ZERO patience. its literally so sickening to think this happened to you. these people have all this time to complain and dont use it in any form of productive manner.

keep it up lad, don't get bothered by those so called redditors, there was nothing ill willed in your statement

Over 2 years later and I still think the community was massively overreacting to this entire situation. Maybe the streamer bit needed more communication, but marketing-focused the streamer priority makes complete sense.
Also what you said might've been out of pocket but not even close to that crazy. Shit comparison doesn't equate to the amount of hate receiving by any means. Just an exaggerated dumb analogy.
Huge community L all around here. Much love Empy <3

true and based about life not being fair

those motherfuckers fueling the thread on forums are just salty as fuck. They should been banned

"i gave.1 day of stream to charities"
pityfull

Being born in Africa has nothing to do with it being unfair, having 10-15 kids and thinking you can feed them all is just dumb, even first worlders know they couldn’t do that, nobody made it unfair for them but themselves

how can you be born in africa unless a man and a woman from there make it happen? maybe they should stop doing that.

What is up with people these days trying to get peoples voices online removed. So what If some salty 30yo factory worker on Reddit says something you don’t think is true. You think the majority of shit on the net is true? I’m not a moronic leftist or a zealot conservative and I find 70% of everything on Reddit, which we all know is 90% left since all the mods remove any posts or comments that don’t align with their right-think, isn’t true and is intentionally biased and spun.

You know what will absolutely NOT calm people down? Mass deleting their comments and trying to silence opposition. It works to silence them on Reddit, because all the power mods remove any conservative or libertarian ideas, but it just further alienates people and causes more hate.
When the left figures out they’re just fueling hate and divisiveness under the false pretense of social activism, doing exactly what the right had been doing for years by removing the “undesirables”, well who am I kidding. They never will. They’ll just keep banning and deleting until the people are so fed up and they’ll be forced out of their positions of power and the pendulum will swing back and the cycle will start again. I’m so sick of the left. They’re all even worse than the conservatives under Reagan and the Bush. At least they didn’t constantly try and divide people by race and sexuality vocally. They just silently excluded them.

I feel bad that people sent you death threats from saying something that is really true and we all know it but it scares us.

Life is not fair, there is no umpire. Of course it shoes humility but of course you can be happy with being on the winning end of the shtick. Its not reflective of your life, nor should people forget its just pixels.

Priority was dumb, but the reaction of the public was atrocious.

lol this became a meme

Based comment. Life really isn't fair in fact it's rigged against entire social classes. People freaking out over video games fairness need a reality check.

Definitely not ban-worthy, but props for being a good sport about it.

Beautifully said my friend. NO life is not fair and some people need to understand this. Stay strong and keep saying the truth. Do not bend for those weak people.

But a unfair game temporalily ban

I love how the biggest loot explosion in PoE is like 1.5 exalted orbs worth of Div cards xDDDD

… Ggg should not have removed your bug report… and also should not have banned you.

I didn't even see this happen, but it's super weird that you were wrong by being right. Lol and had to apologize for it. Reddit can really gather the worst type of people sometimes.

Selling towels, $1 each...to wipe the tears of all the babies butt hurt by this lol

those reddit comments are disgusting to read. Only started watching your content recently but very sad to hear you had to go deal with this for something so minor.

Looking back at it... Yep you deserve that ban solely for your attitude at league start.

They shouldnt have just removed the post, but wrote you a message that its not intended, and THEN remove it, or just reply to the post that it's not intended and fix it asap... i find this way really scummy

life is not fair and whoever say otherwise is just plain stupid...

whats so wrong with what he said tho?? holy hell are gamer entitled. ... yes life is not fair ... if you dont like it ... stop living its not that hard

The idiots weren't happy because they didn't do the work to associate themselves with the success of the game.

THE COMMUNITY ARE SUCH SNOW FLAKES WTF

Why. Banned? Loot explosions are awesome

server = ??????? ... whhhaaatttt is happppeeeenniiinnngggg ....iiiii crrrrrraaaassshhhhh..heeeeelllllppppp

Continued to abuse exploit while streaming it on purpose, of course u got a ban ....

Find a real job and do real contribution, it is more rewarding. Then you don't have to behave like a poor kid beaten by the bad guys...

How old are these people that are mad over a guy that generates attention to the game having a priority on the queue? holy shit that is petty...

In hindsight people may have over-reacted to this situation

People who are upset that streamers got priority need actual mental help. They are the giving 100+ thousand people the opportunity to atleast watch the league. And he is 100% about life not being fair it’s the truth.

The Kripp reference is done right epic

@r/pathofexile just a little reminder:











Life isnt fair ;)

Finding the bug and reporting it not a problem, the problem was when you started abusing the bug and making items from it. And you streamed it, my god man what were you thinking!?

Those explosions tho B-)

Coming back here, after experiencing the worst loot in poe ever
