I don't see how you can see it to be any other way -- the Steam client does its best to make it hard for people to be able to steal your account -- not saying you deserve it if your account was stolen (you don't), but it is your fault, and subsequently so is the end result of the aforementioned issue. Basic security measures prevent against things like this happening. If you allow your Steam account to be stolen, then you seriously need to review your security setup. Not always true. My account was stolen and I had done: - completely random password of capital letters, lower case letters and numbers (created by smashing on my keyboard) - not posted it anywhere - no connection with other passwords - changed it every 2 months - no viruses, malware, keyloggers or any of that shit on my computer - never logged in at a public place and it was still stolen. Sometimes they'll get it no matter how much you try and prevent it from happening.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=7328&post=118212 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 12:26:57 +0100 Reply by Dr. Chris https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-7328/page-3/?recent=124242#post=118172 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=7328&post=118172 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 01:47:38 +0100 Reply by baerbel https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-7328/page-3/?recent=124242#post=115809 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=7328&post=115809 Sun, 01 Nov 2009 18:31:08 +0100 Reply by Daggial https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-7328/page-3/?recent=124242#post=115806 generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=7328&post=115806 Sun, 01 Nov 2009 18:24:09 +0100 Reply by beetle380 https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-7328/page-3/?recent=124242#post=114531 I like to see that many are supporting my idea here. Go on :) OT- to the FB2 guys: don't generalise please, i'm italian too :O I don't know what was said about Italians, or who said it, but I can assure you it is not the view of all of us in FB2. More on topic, I am pretty convinced that 90% of people who read this thread would be in favour of changing this rule, it may not have effected you yet but I am sure you can sympathize when cases like what happened to us occur.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=7328&post=114531 Thu, 29 Oct 2009 16:51:06 +0100 Reply by Daggial https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-7328/page-3/?recent=124242#post=114508 Keep in mind 80% people in etf2l haven't read the long long long "rules" page. their problem
Even if the pros have a point here : u can never be sure 100% one of your clan memebers will not have a last minute problem :/ 2 possibilities : -You are organised enough to have a backup 7th player available. -Oppenent is smart enough and accept merc or allow you to wildcard while you are in the last 24h. Maybe i'm too positive but i think if u didn't have bad feelings with oppenent within the initial schedule process there is no reason he says no. Think that add an addendum like this to the rule will be adequate :
Every team got a specific number of Wildcards per competition which has to be used if a scheduled match has to be postponed without opponent’s agreement. A wildcard has to be used at least 24 hours before the game is supposed to start. Contact an admin and try to contact your opponent about the issue. Addendum : You can also use your wildcard less than 24h before the match is supposed to start if your oppenent agree
There is no official statement on that, even if it's allowed by admins (I guess).
opponent is not always "smart enought". mostly, not always. and there is already the rule:
1.6.4 Scheduled Match can only be postponed by using Wildcard or if both teams agree
the problem comes when (all together): -it's too late to use the wildcard -the opponent is not smart -it's not your fault if you can't play the match -unluck lady has pointed her finger on your head :P]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=league&topic=7328&post=114508 Thu, 29 Oct 2009 15:52:55 +0100 Reply by Keyro https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/league/topic-7328/page-3/?recent=124242#post=114498 Every team got a specific number of Wildcards per competition which has to be used if a scheduled match has to be postponed without opponent’s agreement.
