Cheating @ NYC Comic Con

Hey everyone just want to share my experience at comic con. Certain YouTubers were abusing their press passes and cutting the line over and over so they could get more spins on the wheel and more chances to post a qualifying time for the finals. I know this because I was cut in front of by 3 of them as soon as they finished their turn. I alerted staff after my turn and saw the same thing when I came back. They knew what was going on, just a shame to deal with cheaters in-game all the time and now in person. As if Kabam was ok with this which I understand, they get to create more content for them. Saw one of them with 3 2500 unit tickets, trust me thats not good luck. Not calling out names here because that is not right but they know who they are.

From what I hear this wasn’t condoned or sanctioned. What happened was these people took advantage of an unmonitored/unpoliced line.

(Not having been there myself, but...)

I could understand if people covering these conventions (ie, w/ Press Passes) would be allowed to shortcut the line FOR ONE TIME ONLY, so they could get back to their “press” job of covering as much of the convention as possible for those tuning in to their channel.

But they should maybe be keeping track of who they are and not allowing them to shortcut the line multiple times.

well anyone cutting line anywhere ,be it youtuber or some big shot, should get strongly worded fist !! its not right to cut in line whoever you are!!! should not be tolerated!!! not at all!

If you participate in any YouTuber’s NYCC giveaways ask them if they are honest rewards that were not obtained by cutting in line.

@Logan why didnt u act like an adult about it and speak to them at the time about it instead of coming to the forums to whine about it. Why allow 3 ppl to get in front of u in the first place? U should have called them out right when it happened and not after the fact through a random post on a forum.

Agree. I don't understand people letting others cut in line. Especially in New York lol

See... being me... I would have filmed myself confronting them when it happened and threaten to post it on YouTube unless they gave me all the prizes they won.

I'm not above a shakedown.

this is really unfair, just because they advertise the game on entertainment platforms like twitch and youtube, doesn't mean that they get to do this. i am one of the most popular kids at school, yet i still do not push in line, because i know it isn't fair.

Thesurvivlist

and the fact that your a kid. Kid I say

He said he alerted staff. Besides, regardless of what he chose to do then he’s is free to relay his experience now.

Yea exactly what I want to do at comic con, I am there to enjoy myself not get into a confrontation that would have caused a lot of confusion. There will be future events and I don't want others to have the same experience as me. The staff is supposed to manage the line, not the public.

I demand rank down tickets for this

Sounds like they monitor and manage their booth as much as they manage their game.

Of course they care about their brand........a lot of them make money that way. They will do anything and everything they can to promote themselves.

Anyone else really wanting to know who it was? I get that it keeps things civil by not naming names, but curiosity is quite the force.

Cutting in line is an active buff, dispel it by growing a pair and telling them to do one.

I get what you’re saying, but I think it’s important to say that doesn’t apply to every single YTer, because right now you’re making them all seem like pure evil.
