@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal Yeah, we finally understand each other and have found common ground on this issue. Thanks for talking with me.

[21a4 @Azu21a4]

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal That is my point. A truly unfortunate event.

[21a4 @Azu21a4]

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal The issue here is that the rules—and the associated penalties—lack clarity. Had Krafton made everything clear from the start, there would be no controversy; violations simply have to be dealt with.

[21a4 @Azu21a4]

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal Evidence emerged during the player's livestream, where they publicly disclosed details surrounding the situation after being banned.

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal Look, I never said Sufi was wrong or that the Vietnamese player was right. I’m talking about Krafton—the way they organized an event rife with shady rule-related tactics, and how unfairly they handled the situation when issues arose.

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal 8 ) Regarding Sufi, she has previously faced suspicions of cheating in SA. After the controversy, she deleted several gameplay clips, which raised further questions. However, I won’t dwell on her, as she was merely the spark that ignited the situation.

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal 7) It is the game publisher's baffling conduct that has infuriated all the players. They are not claiming the Vietnamese player was in the right; rather, they are taking issue with how the situation was handled.

[21a4 @Azu21a4]

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal 4) Sufi and Vietnamese fans then exchanged insults. The publisher should have stepped in, acknowledged that its actions caused the misunderstanding, and issued a public apology. That could have resolved the situation, but they did nothing.

[21a4 @Azu21a4]

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal 2) After encountering Sufi, the Vietnamese player killed her and destroyed her chip to prevent her from respawning. Enraged, she—and subsequently others—accused the Vietnamese player of violating the rules.

[21a4 @Azu21a4]

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal 1) In celebrity tournaments, many people watch a second screen to guess the locations of other players. Before doing this, the Vietnamese competitor asked the game publisher if it was allowed, and they confirmed that it was.

[21a4 @Azu21a4]

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal I’ve been following the livestream from the very beginning, so I’ll tell the story from my perspective—okay?

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal An MMO that loses a large number of players will never survive in the long run—especially PUBG, which has been gradually declining over time.

[21a4 @Azu21a4]

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal Look, this is an international game. If you treat players from other countries differently than your own, no one will want to play anymore. It’s a matter of fairness. If you want others to truly respect and accept the outcome, you have to be above board yourself.

[21a4 @Azu21a4]

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal It is true that the primary revenue from in-game products originating in Vietnam might be negligible, but money is money. Furthermore, Vietnamese games account for 30% of total views; so, where exactly are you going to find that 30% of viewers to make up for the loss?

[21a4 @Azu21a4]

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal Initially, the South Korean side imposed a one-year ban and demanded an apology. After the Vietnamese player apologized, they used it as an admission of guilt to impose a lifetime ban, effectively applying a newly introduced rule retroactively.

[21a4 @Azu21a4]

@SEunsu59140 @TVietnamse45422 @Polo_TheJell @LeninUGReal DNS player Gyumin kicked his monitor during an official tournament. He didn't get banned or face any consequences at all? Okay. The issue is that the way the Koreans handled it looks like they were covering for each other.
