What do you thing about BOOSTING ??? in General Discussion
Flying Donkey

    Greetings everyone,

    A few days ago I started a discussion in which various people wanted to express the good impression from one of your teammates.

    Suddenly comments started to talk about Boosting and how the Booster do not deserve any praise.

    What do you think about this matter?

      Yeh, boosting is a thing

        Yeah it happens to the weak willed.

            There's even greater thread. Account, ID steel, bank accounts, and many others things to steel. Should we consider Boosting a crime, should we report every booster, or we must accept it ?

                Dude, "boosters'' just get on the account and grind mmr there. There are people selling the boosting service, some shady some realiable. Just like in life, you are responsible of your choices..

                    i think boosting is a nice opportunity for piss poor people to get some money while doing what they love
                    of course its gonna ruin games but there will always be acc buyers and boosted accounts, the market is oversatisfied to be honest. was boosting myself before i started university and its a nice way to waste some time
                    just some info: most of the accounts are in 3-4k range and want to get +1k mmr. cant speak for higher mmr since i only boosted to 5k.

                      Deciding on whether pressing on that button or not makes it a choice. Rofl Bofl.

                        "riot tried to do something, they banned ~70-90% of boosters, afaik by checking IP/MAC adresses of the original owner and booster one.
                        they were banning both accounts, booster's acc was permabanned, boosting acc ~1month or smth."

                        That's the most absurd thing I've ever heard, you are locking your player's to one pc in one location. What if I get on my laptop at home or at a neighbors? What if I'm visiting a friend for a lan party?

                        Boosters are few and far between in my games and usually the ones that claim to be boosting suck anyway or are not appreciably better. Only one game I've ever been in where the guy said I'm boosting and I believe he was. It was after he called me an idiot for dying out of position and said that's why I'm 3k, my response was so are you asshole, and that's when he informed me he was boosting and that's when I reported him for being a tool. nontheless he did dominate our game and made some amazing plays people in my bracket just don't make.

                          those people who say they're boosting are usually not boosting and just want to claim mid for themselves. most boosters are confident enough to win from other lanes aswell.

                            well if not for every single game where people have to argue over mid in 4k bracket no one would even say they're boosting.

                                ye thats true

                                  Very entertaining to watch, but it also has some very adverse consquences

                                    it's ridiculous that valve is doing absolutely nothing to limit boosting and account buying

                                    Reese

                                      and by the way what's the point of getting boosted if it's so obvious like anyone can open your profile/dotabuff and see 50 win streak

                                        I like to say boosters are pieces of shit but I would do it if I was any good

                                        123

                                          dont blame the boosters, blame the people getting boosted. boosters just capitalize on retards
