I agree with this.
Also, it was Faded's first offense, 44 TPE is pretty steep, on top of 7M fine plus out of a league job which cuts off more income for future seasons. Yes cheating is terrible but in the grand scheme of things this was a selfish action, not one that was intended to hurt others. Sure *maybe* a short suspension could also have been warranted, but imo this punishment should be enough of a deterrent and hopefully he learned his lesson. But if he does anything like this again, then yes ban him
