Tekken 8 Players Are Finally Getting Banned After Plugging In Online Matches

Players indulged in plugging during online matches in Bandai Namco Entertainment's fighting game, Tekken 8, are now getting banned.

Plugging? Why is it called plugging? Is that not the same as rage quitting?

[SDuck]

yes and no. Rage quit is usually a one and done per session due to rage. Plugging in Tekken is rage quitting on purpose over and over because for some reason, you don't get a registered loss and it ruins the victim's win streak

[CobraKai]

Ah. So it’s more of a loophole to keep the L record from getting bigger

[SDuck]

Exactly. Obviously, that lets them rank up to ranks they are clearly not good enough to be

[Skuletor]

I think it's more unplugging your net connection to avoid the loss.

[SPEAKxTHExTRUTH]

Yes I’ve heard. Lowtiergod got banned and has been crying about it every sense. I say good for Namco actually doing something about it.

[SDuck]

the only clip I've seen of that person reacting to the ban was him literally saying "no problem, I still have alt. accounts"

[SPEAKxTHExTRUTH]

Then you haven’t really seen his videos. He’s perhaps the biggest fighting game rage quitter of all time. He made his name off rage quitting and a few other things. Just watch a few videos on YouTube about him and you’ll see.

I rather not, thx lol

Dale (LowTierGod) is a special kind of moron.
He does have alts, but you really have to be committed to it keep creating new accounts. At the end of the day, they're like bullets: you could always use more, but you'll run out. In principle though, wouldn't he need to keep topping up subs for new accounts?

Get that ass banned

[Angyobangyo]

LTG ban is probably a combination of plugging and his constant online toxicity in the game. Harada should just make it that if someone ragequits or plugs, the other players automatically gets the win.
