I never understood the concept of bans, in most of any game. People play for fun; if cheating is what they find fun, then so be it. Although there is some criteria that excludes being forgiving; repeated offenses after warnings, and spamming high score boards (it's fun to see, realistically, what rank you are).
I think as long as someone doesn't do it again after a warning, they shouldn't be banned. I mean, we've all cheated in a game at some point. A warning, in most cases, just stops it altogether because of fear. I know that if in WoW you got a warning for buying gold instead of instant termination of account, a lot less people would be getting banned.
Just a small, unnecessary rant. This community seems to take cheaters a lot more seriously than any other game (excluding XBL). No offense, of course. n.n
Edit - Just to clarify, this rant wasn't directed at the current situation going on. It's just a generalization of what I have seen/read.
I'm just going to remove any score on hXc's account that was recorded with the default settings and depending on how many there are will impact the possibility of a blacklist.

Were you around in the boogiebear era?
If you were you'd understand why people take cheating seriously.

I played like the first 3 years on default...lol. Fair enough though

Naw, but I did a quick Google search and uncovered some of the stuff he did. I'm not sure what his first offense was, but getting his stats wiped for exploiting multiplayer did seem a little rash. However the way he acted in response (alt accounts, continuing, etc) was immature.
However, people should view those types of people with rose-tinted glasses. Although they do make a mistake, it's possible to change. n.n
I can also see this from the admin's view, though. If people see that you can cheat once and only get a warning, then what stops them from saying, "Hey, I have one chance to cheat. If I don't get caught, this would be great!", and many more would do it, causing a lot more work.

Both sides have merits, really. Oh well. :3
There was a point where the top 10 of every FGO was all botted boogiebear alts.
It was INCREDIBLY obnoxious lol
hakulyte used arrow slow down on one song and was blacklisted. he remained blacklisted for years
hx deserves the same for cheating multiple songs
This. I have nothing against hX but I really think that would be unfair for people who actually got banned for minor hacks. However, I never thought that would happen, not from him.
