Is streaming to twitch or a different platform while having a red ping considered as a bannable offence?

    i don’t think it’s directly bannable, as theoretically you shouldn’t be able to influence your ping as the server gets selected automatically and with a VPN the ping in-game would only indicate a bad connection between the VPN location and server.


    though idk if it’s bannable if the stream directly states that the person is taking measures to get a worse connection to get gameplay advantages.

    When you hit ready while having a red ping in your lobby, it's your fault, no matter which side you're playing or if you're streaming or not.

    Would be suprised if it's bannable, but pls don't complain about bad connection after.
