Its not cool to get a ban from any game unless they give you a refund.



If the ban was for cheating, then it's very much "cool". Cheating in an online game should earn you a ban from all online games, period. Any other argument is akin to saying "people who do not cheat deserve a worse experience than those who do."

That implies a level of consolidation and control that I'm definitely not comfortable with. No, I don't think botting in RuneScape should mean I can't play Helldivers 2.

I sure do. “That guy steals from my neighbor all of the time, but I’m sure he’ll leave your stuff alone.”
