I reported a player via support ticket for downloading their own stuff using 3 other profiles that are just themselves.
I got a response saying they were investigating the player and my ticket marked as solved, however the issue is not solved as 2 months after the apparent investigation began nothing has been done about this player.
I did my research on this player finding the boosting profiles that started the game just enough to access designs, plus more evidence I can’t post on here but that I submitted to support including named boost profiles.
Sure enough every new car we have gotten since my ticket they have downloaded and liked 3 times, we know under current system this won’t happen the minute you put on a car and everytime you do so. Now they have been doing it with vinyls too. To be fair I was expecting this next move as I have been lucky enough to have some vinyls in curated groups of late, no surprise really as I am a silent member in a new club meaning my work is more out there now. No boosting though involved in my case.
This person is a jealous individual who will continue with this triad unless stopped, it’s unfair what they are doing and as they are a member of this forum they know what they are doing is wrong.
If anyone can help I would be grateful as I am fed up with this person getting away with everything wrong they do. I can discuss more of this case with the correct people only if I have someone who will contact me to do so. This isn’t coincidence what this person does and when we get the next new car they will do it again.
what’s the actual issue
they get 3 downloads and likes , which is minimal in the whole scheme of things, you must have them as a friend if you get them in trending with a whole 3 downloads and likes
also not against any rules either
3 votes isnt manipulating anything or altering their rank
Sounds like someone else is jealous
Also how do you know they are using their alternate gamertags and its not someone else
Sounds like a witch hunt/ vendetta…all over 3 pointless votes…harmless too
What advantage does someone get by 3 downloads and likes…none
What if this person you are accusing of cheating has youtube/ mixer whatever followers and they download and like his designs/tunes straight as he posts them
Is that cheating too
Sounds like you follow them which would also be why they come up first for you
“Manipulate game stats to increase or decrease your standing in a game” and “Use multiple profiles to unfairly manipulate your multiplayer rank” are both listed in the Xbox community standards as things you’re not supposed to do.
I don’t believe either of these apply to this situation. In particular, that user has not manipulated his multiplayer rank. I also do not believe the first one applies either
OP, I really don’t think that most people pick the first design in the que. I know I do not. When I do go looking for designs (which I admit is not often), I spend a fair amount of time looking at a good number of the designs, by searching ALL.
I agree with those who really don’t think 3 (or even 10 for that matter) likes is going to boost.
I’ll give you another example. In FM7 there is one achievement that is all but statistically impossible to get (start last, finish first). The only real way to get this one is in an organized boost session. It has even been pointed out by people in authoritative positions that this is how you get this achievement.
Talby The issue is this person is gaining unfair downloads by pushing genuine peoples stuff back, other people were being banned for this and they aren’t using the design for anything other than boosting which they have gained massive amount of downloads in the process which is against rules, so don’t sit there and call me jealous for picking out a cheater. The matter of the fact is their stuff wouldn’t get seen if they weren’t doing what they were. The genuine people who put the time in to their work get cast aside for people like that and you think that’s ok, if their 3 likes and downloads didn’t push them to the front of the queue it wouldn’t be an issue. Plus this person has been banned on other forza games for cheating. Plus like mentioned there is more to this case than you even know about that I can’t post on here.
Glad to see another user has the right view on this.
Oh and this player has earned 100,000 plus downloads using the method they do so I won’t be told it’s no impact in their status, plus 3 downloads, 3 likes everytime is what gives the game away. I have a lot of followers and I list new designs almost daily never receiving 3 downloads, 3 likes within such a short time, infact I don’t see many people that happens to particularly with the likes.
I asked for help not accusations of being jealous, I am far from it, I love to see other designers do well because it’s deserved not because they are cheating. Only 2 people have i seen this download lark with and it needs to stop.
Just remember before turning against me there is more back scene that you can’t see.
Where do you turn? Nowhere. It’s a game. 3 downloads per car isn’t pushing anyone else’s designs away from the front page of designs. If they are, the designs aren’t that good to begin with. Keep playing, it literally doesn’t matter.
Going on what you’ve wrote, and what I’ve seen, I’m inclined to say this person also enjoys gloating and I could hazard a guess whom it is.
I know it’s hard to say, but I’d hit the block button and move onwards as you could potentially get a ban yourself should you accidentally name them on here.
No matter which game you pick up and play, there is someone out to exploit it. Remember you didn’t need to exploit the game to achieve your stats, they did… hence you’re 10 times the player they are no matter what any stats say!
Just block them then? If its not affecting you I don’t see why you have a problem. Apparently they’re a jealous individual, but you’re on here complaining?
It does matter because I have seen good designs get thrown backwards because of this person not bad designs as some of you are saying, you can’t ban others for doing it and not this person, they have manipulated their painter status by the way. I am not going to post further on this thread now because so many of you can’t see the issue and just turn on me in the process. If you don’t have other facts like I do then stay out of it am asking for help from higher rankings not people who think they know it all because if you did you would realise 3 downloads and 3 likes straight away is a massive advantage that can incur hundreds if not thousands of downloads over time because some people don’t know they have the option to search, hence plain colour cars and up with so many downloads remember.
