Thanks Aljo

Appreciate the kind words. Thank you 😊

Did they have one of the bot names? As always, video would be great. By glitch skating are you talking about the LT exploit? I hate to say it, but that's not a bannable offense. 

Can you send me a private message and tell me how the zen is being used? To my knowledge, it's not going to give you any benefit. If there truly is a way to cheat with it, we of course want to know. 

So exploiting the game isn't cheating ? I thought the definition of cheating was.

"act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage, especially in a game or examination"

So exspliotting a glitch in order for your character to gain speed and an unfair advantage isn't. Guess that's why it hasn't been fixed...

To answer your question no he did not have a bot name and no circle around his guy. It was really weird. Never seen a bot do a lot glitch either it was very strange gameplay for a bot.

Sorry not the best clip of his game play.

Someone posted a video on reddit of a real world player doing what is basically the LT move. I'm not saying that validates it though. I don't like this being used in our game. While it can be defended, it's obviously very frustrating to deal with. It's a known issue that isn't easily resolved or it would have been by now. However, it's not something we'd consider a cheat so it's not an actionable offense. Also, there is no speed gain. You aren't losing speed as you should be, but you're not gaining speed or getting a boost.

As far as I know, a bot will replace a human skater when they disconnect, but will still control their player until the next stoppage. I assume that wasn't the case here and this player model stayed in the game? If it is a glitch, I really don't think it's one being exploited.  I'll pass on the video. Thanks for getting a clip.
