As much as I love punishing cheaters, a zero-tolerance scares me because SSO is so buggy. I don't cheat, I don't see the point in cheating, but at the Winter Word, the first race with the giant ice-slide got me kicked because I jumped, which made me go down fast, and then I jumped again, which made me go down even faster. I was so fast, SSO detected cheating (or someone reported me, idk) and I was kicked. Non banned, thankfully (SSO would've heard from me, I would've been ON their asses, mark my words, I'm not losing my account), but still kicked. Again, I wasn't cheating. I was using the game's mechanics; I don't think that qualify as cheating. This was entirely SS's fault and I'm just imaging me, in the future, being outright banned because my horse got stuck on a rock and launched me into to stratosphere. Idk. I like the idea but... I don't trust SSO not to harm innocent players
@@Mx.Crumbles I can see that being a possibility but I think the past atleast 2 years they actually sat down and examined the game, I hope they have a pile of problems that are falsely flagged as cheating listed so they can avoid them and get to the real cheaters.
YESSSSS finally! I haven’t watched the whole video yet but I’m assuming what kickstarted the movement was that guy soliciting nudes from minors to have access to his cheating software. Finally justice!!!!
7:58 I don’t understand cheating in sso races, not only because it’s a horse game, but also because that’s like the most fun part of sso imo. It has actual challenge 😭
I'm very glad they're finally going to take care of this. I didn't play the game for 6 years, learn every shortcurt, learn how to constantly click "W" on my keyboard by muscle memory, calculate which tack will give me the best skill bonus and level up every single horse I own just for someone to unfairly set their horse's swiftness to 30 or more in 10 minutes with a stupid cheat program.
If you're using a separate program running along Star Stable, then yea, you won't be able to do that anymore, if you're using an in-game glitch/bug without opening another program then you can still do it unless they somehow patch it.
Tbh i dont think a zero tollerance is good. I have heard other players saying that they get kicked out daily for cheating while doing gardening in valedale. I think there should be like 1 day bans or up to a month (only 1 week+ if someone cheats while doing a race or champinship)and not accounts being deleted or being banned permanentely. I havent watched the video yet but i‘ve read the comments so idk if anything i said has been mentioned in the video already.
So if more and more cheat at getting different coats on horses they already have then they are not buying sc and that will affect the game over all in the long run, so in turn it will affect you at some point
@@gingabee It won't affect me, I'm casual if this game died tomorrow and could never come back yeah I'd be upset but not for long cause I have other interests that I enjoy WAY more than SSO. Couldn't care less about any money spent on it, I don't regret it even if it did die.
well, I have heard stories of people getting banned for wearing the reindeer skin outside of Christmas, being lvl 27 and so on. To me that is scary. I hope they have a handle on unnecessary ban situations before they go ahead with the zero tolerance. Yes, I purchased the buckskin sport today. Since they are staying in game, I will keep the others in mind for later. Happy Holidays, All.
@@True-xq1fz I remember the powder reports! Was crazy. Support doesn't really play maybe, but whoever was in charge of the ban should have known the powder was apart of the game from the report.
haven’t watched yet, but I hope SO badly that they fix the race score leaderboard glitchers, like y’know the people on the leaderboard that somehow finish the race in under 2 seconds when the race usually takes at least 2 minutes to finish?.. yeah
I am exited to see a stop to all the exuses around cheters and modders for this game. If you cant play onest in a horse game made for children stay out.
ok but why does SSO care so much about ppl just changing the horse coat over REAL predators that needs the real punishment, and are still playing like nothing with so many children in the game? what happened to protect the children??? harmless coat swapping over dangerous real predators is crazy tbh
@hon3531 if ther stop moderrs horrible men cant gain acces to children using star stable. They have to do something to stop cheters and moddders. And all they can do after that is leve info to police. Who may have to work with police outside sweden to acess these horrible people.

I jumped on the slide as well and I got sent to my home stables for crashing into a tree😂
the ice slide thing happened to me aswell some reason sso thought jumping on the ice slide was cheating

@@arnica2892 I freaking hope! It should have taken that to be the final straw but damn!
I never heard about that-
@@AddiF.Equestrian A channel called Rattle made a video recently about it.
As much as we all want to see cheaters finally punished, I doubt that they'll be stopped from making new accounts to get around the bans. 😔

Does that mean i wont be able to dance in Steves anymore?
@Dusty_Horse_Games Are people using 3rd party software to do that or just broken mechanics in the game?

Hey, Hunter, I love your videos! Have a good rest of your day/night!
@Lokiwintertiger Aw ty have a good night/day!
Should i save for the new black & white Friesian or save for a christmas horse?
Christmas horse.
@@OliviaMackenzie-s7m The Friesians are permanent so Christmas horse, my opinion.
Ok should i get the gingerbread or the goat horse from the winter village?
I don't really like the gingerbread horse, so I would choose the other one. I guess you mean the Heidrun.
Christmas horses usually comeback every year but cheaper, so maybe get a fresian lol
haven’t watched yet, but I hope SO badly that they fix the race score leaderboard glitchers, like y’know the people on the leaderboard that somehow finish the race in under 2 seconds when the race usually takes at least 2 minutes to finish?.. yeah
@hhhhhhh7627 Yeah those are cheaters, I am sure once they tackle some of them they will reset the scoreboards.
