Is there a cumulative effect if a player is reported a lot or is it just there to give people the feeling of doing something?

bobtherterrible Players 867 posts 14,307 battles Report post #2 Posted February 18, 2021 Oh yes they take it very seriously. Every time there' a report for poor playing there's an inquiry at WG where they watch the replay. People who are not very good get fined. 1 26 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[R7S] lovelacebeer Players 4,158 posts 25,226 battles Report post #3 Posted February 18, 2021 All it does is reduce their karma level by 1 (note although you can report a player multiple times in a battle their karma still only goes down by 1). Some people take their karma quite seriously so it might upset them but that is the limit of reporting someone using plays poorly. My honest belief is it’s a vent to allow people to feel they did something about a bad player rather than exploding in chat at them. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobtherterrible Players 867 posts 14,307 battles Report post #4 Posted February 18, 2021 If you really feel someone played badly, take the time to look them up and message them after the battle. This is sure to improve things and you can have the confidence that sharing your critique with them will enhance your reputation and respect. 1 20 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[R_N_G] Bindolaf_Werebane Players 1,387 posts 12,045 battles Report post #6 Posted February 19, 2021 It does have a function! I get to see "You have been reported! [note the exclamation point, trying to convey a sense of urgency and importance - and failing] You lost 2 karma"! Then that makes me lol, because my karma is always zero. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, yeah it will surely get him blacklisted by the lad he is contacting but I seriously doubt there will be any other outcome. But then again, you were just trolling him right? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Camperdown Players 2,501 posts 17,258 battles Report post #9 Posted February 19, 2021 No it does not do anything except give you a moment of satisfaction that you have vented your anger. And if 2 people report a player in the same game he will see that. I don't think that has much effect though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise it becomes an amusing source of entertainment. E.g. from time to time someone starts a thread on the forum about it and then you usually can have a good laugh at it and the follow-ups.

Dragontrn Players 220 posts 8,336 battles Report post #20 Posted February 21, 2021 This game should have negative karma, the more negative you have, the less resources you will receive. To decrease that negative point you must get compliment or play certain amount of game . Also for people have good karma, they get more 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[DEH] hellhound666 Beta Tester 1,978 posts Report post #24 Posted February 21, 2021 again folks, you know nothing of the matter ... the moment you press "plays poorly" or whatever it is called signal light in players experience follow-up room starts to blink and a team of experts starts the evaluation and reporting procedures to present to the management together with the suggested response in a regular meeting on Monday. on this meeting management of server carefully studies each case of a report and decides based on suggestions what's next. after the meeting a comprehensive report of what has happened and what actions were taken will be sent to lesta head office in st petersburg and wg head office in cypros where it is all gathered carefully in the archive. later on, after a year is passed these reports with accompanying documents are reviewed once again to check if an improvement has been made and whether future actions are needed. so, pls consider carefully before reporting anyone as it creates a lot of work for our superiors ... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
