General DiscussionNo perma ban

Just give me my prime matchmaking and i'm good to go

that would be bad for people who travel a lot like me since i have to log in from different cities/countries

i have difficulty taking you seriously mr numbers

Not really for account buying.. Maybe for intentionally ruining too many games.

Also, what's prime matchmaking ?

Prime Matchmaking, in the short, is linking your phone to your account (main) so you will be matched with other players who are playing on their main account. This limits the amount of hackers/smurfs/account buyers/etc. from appearing in your lobbies because they will have to either use their phone number for that extra account or use their real account where they really belong.

I think its still in beta for CSGO matchmaking

Sounds legit

it doesnt actually violate any rules

LoL not even sure if that account is bought. It's just abused. The guy played against bots in his calibration games.

it violates some part of the steam agreement i believe

but this issues so fucking unimportant that i dont know why people care. every time it gets to the front page of reddit, its some guy who had his last game ruined by an account buyer, then 50000 people claim their mmrs fucked because of acc buyers every game when its just normal ppl not being arteezy in 3k mmr

ive literally run into 4-5 accoutns that were bought in the past 2 years and ive played like 2000-3000 matches over that span in high mmr so theres no way this is a real issue, but the amount of toxic shitheads who call other ppl acc buyers/peruvians/russians is fucking insane

^thats indeed right

there are barely any acc buyers (1/1500 games for me), and they mostly give you free mmr (5/9 chance for him to br against you rather than with you).
the pathetic part is when those tards who call every1 acc buyers fuck up the games and play just as bad as ppl they were flaming, but somehow they always find excuses for themselves, still blaming others - supports didnt ward, mid went 0-1, offlane didnt stomp the lane, heroes were picked poorly, etc.

i havent read steam agreement, does it say u cant give ur acc to any1 else?
it certainly prohibits any money transactions, but this part is not visible for any1 besides the buyer/seller, and no one gives a shit.

it does violate a lot of rules

but like kr said, it's just an excuse, last time i've actually ran into an acc buyer was like a year ago and he was on the enemy team, before that i got one on my team, and i actually won that game.

you'll see them 1 in 20000 players

that player lost his marbles.

read what u posted attentively, it has a very different meaning to what u think, apparently

m u just didnt read at all the quotes u posted, idk

what did i not read properly, i mean you can cut out half of the first quote it cus it doesn't matter to acc selling/buying but the rest is fine

Lmao diox where did you learn that phrase ?

You met him again in one of your games today, 10/10 luck :D
