Cheater Faces In-Game Death Penalty

Guild Wars 2 is a popular massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) which is sold over 3 Million copies worldwide. It’s also one of the places where usage of exploits is not tolerated. DarkSide, in-game character faced sweet justice after he was caught playing by unfair means like teleporting, survive coordinated attacks by other players and dominate player-versus-player combat. After other players complained and submitted proof videos, Security lead Chris Cleary executed the character and deleted all the avatars linked to the account. All the other accounts owned by the same player are were shut down.

“We do not need to see it in-game, sometimes good video evidence is enough for me to track down who it was. In this case, the video was enough for me to find out who it was and take action.” said Mr Cleary “Oh yah, he’s also banned” 

YouTuber Shazbawt has posted a video named ‘RIP DarkSide’ showing the last moments of the character. He is stripped in public then waves and kills himself by jumping off a high bridge.

If cheaters are served justice in similar way that comes with Humiliation, some day there won’t be anymore. This move was appreciated by fans as “That’s pretty gangster” on the forums and it is actually pretty cool though. What do you think? Let us know in the comments section.

Thanks BBC for providing us with this information.
