The player base abandoned 2s n 3s, the Boosters require the player base to not only conceal their efforts, but its much easier then farming other boosters. R1 Streamer glads work for websites selling ratings for RL money, and for a generous stream donation do pilots and carries. They have found a way to be in the same games in voice cheating the solo shuffle.
RSS participation is a success, here are the numbers. Now if Blizz would please drop that Ban Hammer like Gallagher on a watermelon, an rid us of the Kick bots, and Boosters please!
The Forum Gatekeepers are all the same, they turn the subject towards the speaker as an attack. OHH your not X rating so you are not allowed to speak… Multi million dollar industry selling game stuff on websites, of course they have forum damage control.
They pass through the 1500 bracket to get to the buyers desired rating they paid for. 2s n 3s have been abandoned by the player base to escape the toxic cheaters. Now they have adapted for RSS.
I can tell you right now, I havent ran into a kickbotter since legion RBGs back in s7.
Boosters will always exist. They are minuscule now compared to what they were in SL though.
You cannot boost a player past 1800 these days (as easy as SL). 1800 is all glad mounts and multi glads. Boosters thrived when they could get 2400, have super better gear compared to the 1400 plebs and steamroll kids to 1800 for people’s elite sets. Now if they were to find a way to get into solo shuffles together, they could get 1800 pretty easily, but you still have to deal with random teams and I have personally never seen a booster in a RSS or a arena this season.
3 major websites at top of google search results, they sell 1800 for 174-199$ US and takes 3 days if you already have blue pvp gear. 6 days for a fresh 70. They VPN to your country and pilot your account. It’s disgusting. Blizzard should destroy these websites like they did honor buddy.
Every time I have unsubbed has been because of only 2 reasons - utterly hopeless PvP tuning by blizzard, and complete lack of policing account sharing, piloting, kickbotting, boosting etc in PvP
Maybe slightly off topic but have you pvp’d in classic wotlk BG’s lately? If you try and cast anything near the endless plague of dk bots, they instantly strangulate you faster than humanly possibly.
