Yes.

If you need host to win then you suck.

Yea, I'm not sure you can get in trouble for that though.

You can't get caught if you're doing it, but it's just as nerdy as all the other kinds of cheating.

Bannable or not?

I've never heard of someone being banned for it because it can't be proved that someone does it.

  • 04.13.2012 10:25 AM PDT

OP it is bannable.

It's only acceptable in BTB imo because this game cannot consistently chose good hosts. Besides, I'm pretty sure it's pretty much impossible in arena.

I'm pretty sure BTB is one of the playlists you can't bridge in, arena is easy.

Cheating the system to give someone on your team an advantage (cause we know no one would bridge someone on the other team host) is never acceptable.

Agreed but when it's done so someone with flawless internet gets host so everyone is on a good connection as opposed to the usual btb red jar fest than imo it's ok.

Bridging against foreigners and on to someone with terribad internet isn't acceptable.

Every single pummel I have is unboosted.
I play GGL. (Grifball)
I hit inheritor 14/1/12. 16 months after release. I have a life fellas.
Every single killionaire I have is unboosted. 22 from grifball, 4 from LD.

I only wish I could sometimes, due it the fact (inb4scenario) there is 7 Americans and Australians in one game and then the 8th has 'MEX' as his service tag, and he pulls host. What happens to the Aussies? They rubberband because of the lag.
