@MrPhotographerX haha didn't need to quote my whole post, but you're right. EA/Respawn seems to be allowing these players to run rampant. I've seen so many of them run around with heirlooms and event skins as well.
Chances are, they hacked someone's account. Then again, I've heard that most cheats are subscription based. If they got money to spend on cheats, they can certainly buy cosmetics. So, why would EA/Respawn ban people who are paying? Besides, couldn't a banned cheater then chargeback EA/Respawn since technically they don't have what they payed for?
I've also heard that there's players who get banned because of their text chat. Most of which, aren't even being rude to another player as their reported text chat was taken out of context or the context was never even considered.
There's also a ton of players with "TTV", "Twitch", "Kick", "TikTok", "FB", "Facebook", "Youtube", "YT", (basically any social media platform out there). For most of them their accounts either don't exist or they do exist, but its not their account. I saw one cheater with "TTV" in their username. I looked them up on Twitch, and had found a player with their username, but no TTV at the end of it. The player on Twitch was live playing Overwatch while the Apex cheater was running around. The Overwatch Twitch streamer also had a bunch of past streams, none of which was Apex, nor was it listed on their profile as games they streamed. This streamer had streamed Sea of Thieves, Overwatch, Valorant, etc. There are some cheaters who do have the account they're advertising in their username, and these cheaters tend to openly stream themselves cheating with no consequences, which is honestly a real shame.
So, why do people put a media platform in their username? Well, besides what it was meant for, which was showing players they post content, it seems to be used instead to trick EA and Respawn into thinking its a content creator. Why would they ban a content creator who's bringing in views and players to the game, (even if the content doesn't exist)? EA/Respawn don't seem like they check these accounts either. It would take too much time. Instead they should just ignore the player's username and ban them based on what rules they're breaking, rather then give any pardons due to their username suggesting that they post content, (assuming this is what is happening).
There's also the matter of streamers and pros. There's been several instances where a pro streamer broke a rule, which should of gotten them banned, and yet they're not. One was recently, where they had gotten hacked, (being given cheats). Then they had used said given cheats, rather then disconnecting and reporting the incident to EA/Respawn. I'm sure you know who I mean, but since its been a while, I don't think I'm allowed to say their name. Its just very shameful that there was no punishment for them using cheats, even though they had gotten hacked live. This player was also allowed to use an alt account and stream on it while their main one was banned during an investigation to determine if they were actually hacked or not. This makes no sense to me. If you use cheats, even if you didn't install them yourself, you're cheating. Its like playing with a cheater on a pre-made squad, you may not have the cheats installed but you're using the cheater to win, and that's an unfair advantage.
The TL;DR here is that every player should be held to the same rules no matter who they are or how much money they had spent on the game. How are we suppose to have a fair player charter, if some players are allowed to break the rules and not get banned for it because they had spent money or they're a pro, or that they stream?
