the problem is that when people sign up to play competitive tf2, they arent signing up to be spied on. you would arguably drive away more players by having people be constantly monitored by league admins than by just letting the small subset of toxic players be toxic. you also empower said toxic people by making them feel victimized, as a result only making the problem worse because people will see overreach and become sympathetic to those players. also some people just think shit like that is funny, you may disagree, and you have perfectly good reason to do so, its just how some people are.

you then run into the problem of people taking screenshots and sending them to admins out of context, and this turning into a weapon to take out players you dont like.

got a match against a team with a crazy sniper next week? well lucky for you, he just made a joke in extremely poor taste in a discord with him and 2 close friends that you happened to be lurking in, now you have a free win!

it would be too much to deal with for an admin team that is already volunteer to begin with, so then there is more time spent dealing with trying to figure out if a discord screenshot is edited or fake than time trying to find what player is cheating or trying to help a new team leader figure out what the fuck they’re doing.

its a waste of effort and resources to police this kind of thing, its not like these people are playing for a brand for the most part, the reason big players in other eSports are harshly criticized is because there is a lot of money behind them, that is very much not the case with tf2.

tl;dr policing private shit makes toxic people more sympathetic to some people, spreads toxicity, too much shit for admin team to deal with

@Ampy there is an extremely large difference between grooming literal children and saying a slur, one has actual long term psychological harm and can ruin someones entire life, and its also a felony punishable by prison time, while the other makes you upset when you read it

this is the definition of a false equivalence

@watterson the gap between a few of the teams is like the new york yankees against a little league team, its bad

@dlphn top old main = new high main, mid old main = new low main, there was a huge skill gap last season

@yate thats so true yate #true

makes me angy >:((((

I have absolutely no clue why the fuck RGL thought it would be a good thing to make advanced 12 teams, much less 14! At this point why not have challenger back if you were going to do this shit anyways?

As a player on a team that would not make 8 team advanced, seeing some of the teams in this div is really fucking strange to me. Advanced is now challenger and should be treated as the div directly below invite. An optimal 12 team div would be the top 3 fighting for first, a solid 5-6 who are competitive and fighting for the other playoff seeds who could feasibly upset and a bottom 3 who are just happy to be there BUT THEY ARE STILL COMPETITIVE!

It feels like its two divs now, low adv and high adv, much like main a few seasons ago these teams are on a completely different level from each other. Its ok to have a number 1 team who can roll everyone, but its not ok to have 5-6 teams who are going to roll the shit out of another 8. Just make another div at this point. The whole point was to move people down to make lower divs more competitive, now you ruined a div and made the rest shittier in the process.

What the fuck are we doing?

EW GROSS EW EW EW IT LOOKS DIFFERENT I HATE IT REEEEEEEE
