Facebook Gaming Warzone streamer claims platform doesn\u2019t ban blatant hackers Activision \/ FacebookFacebook Gaming\u2019s community guidelines have been called into question as a streamer is accusing the platform of not banning obvious cheaters and making money off of them. Hacking is highly frowned upon in the gaming community. Moreover, it is a violation of terms in many games as well as streaming platforms. Yet, Facebook Gaming has always been a step behind when it comes to properly punishing these cheaters. In response to an article about a Facebook streamer that has blatantly cheated on the platform, Glimmerman101 sent in proof to Dexerto that Facebook doesn\u2019t have an issue with people that hack on their broadcast. Facebook Gaming streamer shows platform ignoring hackers As seen in the picture above, Glimmerman sent video proof of a Facebook streamer that was using blatant hacks while live. Facebook responded to him stating, \u201cWe reviewed the video again and confirmed that it doesn\u2019t go against any of our Community Standards.\u201d However, back in February of 2021, the platform reportedly said that \u201ccheating is not welcome on Facebook Gaming.\u201d The streaming service said they would demonetize cheaters, which prevents them from being part of the Level Up program and receiving star donations. Despite this, Glimmerman said, \u201cI have seen many times with them [hackers] receiving star donations during the stream.\u201d When star donations are purchased, Facebook takes a percentage of that profit for itself. So not only are the ratty streamers earning a profit, the platform they are using is making money as well. The problems don\u2019t end here, he also feels that there isn\u2019t a great way to report these offenders. Facebook Gaming doesn\u2019t have \u201cactual methods\u201d to report Glimmerman thinks that Facebook has a flawed reporting system as whenever you report a hacker you are told: \u201cit\u2019s not against Community Standards.\u201d The solution he was provided by a Facebook official was that if he doesn\u2019t like seeing streamers that hack then \u201cyou can hide the content so it won\u2019t show on your feed.\u201d Instead of actually removing these people from their platform they are just telling viewers to cover their eyes from it. While this is just one case brought to attention, there could be much more similar to this. One thing is certain, gamers don\u2019t like hackers and this is some blinding proof that Facebook is trying to eliminate the problem.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
