I need like 10x more to report all "plays poorly" people. it's ridiculous how you can not report those people, if you have free day and you play more games.

Are you handing these out to anyone who playes worse than yourself?

 

This is typical of so-called good/skilled players. "Anyone who doesn't live up to my standards suck". Anyone playing on average or thereabouts, does not play poorly per definition. The question is where the threshold is? How much worse than the average Joe must one play to "deserve" a report?

 

Oh, and no, we don't need bigger quotas for reporting. The limitation ensures some sort of quality control as it makes people think through whether they want to spend one of their few available reports on a certain player or not. There is in no interest of Wargaming to quantify whining.

If you'd also play 13 hours of WoWs and get 5 wins during all that time, you would also get pretty fed up with these "plays poorly people" who have absolutely vacuum where brains should be, so stop being a hyporcrite.

I have played a few games of WoWs. I still seldom report, and I never use up my daily quota.

Same here, I also use far more positive than negative reports.

Never ran out of complaints so far. 

Overall I'm very pleased with the warships community since people are calm and friendly most of the time, compared to other games.

i did ran out once or twice but on the one hand : the whole karma system is meanigless cause as soon as someone cries "report xy" reports are coming in anyway regardless of anything + nobody can get below 0 anyway

on the other hand: do you really think it changes anything if you reprot someone for playing badly?

Just what rain dance you do to get MM give your teams no AFKs/bots?

It's usually at the latest second or third match of the day in which I see first AFK or bot especially if counting also enemy team.

And I would prefer to report those also in enemy team... including that occasional "-1" player who suddenly makes one enemy ship "disappear" in starting minutes of the match.

 

Sure there are times without single problem with any player for half dozen matches but then there are also times when five reports wouldn't be enough for that many matches.

Yeah... just like only five compliments per day (instead of per certain number of matches) makes it hard to decide when to give compliment.

And time for complimenting/reporting after the match seems to be limited to short time so it's not like that you can wait to end of the session to decide who really did well or did most to disrupt the gameplay.

During the weekends I wouldn't have enough with 300 reports if I reported every bot or bad player I see.

For me most people get reports that yell "GO A GO A" in the beginning, where that particular flag is the one with lots of small islands and passages perfect for DD's, all the team goes there, gets torpedo raped because they have no room to evade and then flame you for not helping them there and we only lose because i didnt go there to die with the lemmings.

 

Thats report worthy for me.

To be honest, people not being as skilled as others is not really what you should report. Plays poorly is a bad option though since it has to cover everything from afk`ers to teamkillers but it`s name suggests that it should be used for splats instead. Being a splat means being unwillingly detrimental to the team but the option is meant to target those who are detrimental to the team on purpose.

 

Also, good thing I have 3x 12 hour night shifts this weekend if it`s that bad :D

Plays poorly is a garbage option, there needs to be more options. Personally they need to double up on complements though, as I find it cathartic to dish them out on losses to those who made an effort.

 

Edit for spelling

Just had a Ranked game with a coop of chickens who must've gotten lost from Normals.

 

You know them by their location at the A1 corner of the minimap (or the 3 equivalent corners) and 0 xp.

Despite being down 2 caps and having me sitting in the 3rd and only having sacrificed their other dds, they decide to sail into the corner cause "they are getting shot at". Right. 

One CA was insisting to shoot BBs and CAs and not DDs (he ofc had lowest xp of them all). 

 

I want to report the entire BB/CA group but I cant, since we only get 3 reports. 

Same problem with compliments when for once a good player turns up.

I would actually like to have more compliments to be able to give out. I am sad being in a game where some guy does something really well that saves the games and turns what would have been a defeat in to a victory, only to realize I can't compliment him. Or when someone just playes really really well, like a CA who sticks with my CV and saves me from DD/CV sniping or a DD who escorts my BB keeping it safe from enemy DD. I would like to be able to compliment those nice guys who do well.

Not sure if the whole karma system actually is worth something, but if we have the choice to compliment people, we might as well be able to compliment all the good peopl. Maybe the system could be expanded in a way that it would somehow reward some people. Could work as a nice encouragement to keep doing well.

Since i dont report people wich load slower than me, die before me, or play air superiority decks.. my reports usually last a bit..

 

Somehow i dont meet that many things who die in spawn without moving a single meter or people who torp out of the 2. line anymore.

Only wish i would have is the ability to report a whole platoon with just using 1 thing.. failtoons and monkey who shoot eachother because cthulhu told em so really eat up the reports.. :3

This. "Plays poorly" is intentionally vague. It can be interpreted in a myriad of different ways, which renders it void as a serious reporting option. It signifies the low level of professionalism WG has regarding maintaining a proper player environment, and should have been replaced or removed a very long time ago.

Just had the opposite, some bot Königsberg moved around some before stopping near border...

Team also had two of those seriously "underperforming" divisions.

Nearly used up all my neg reports tonight, 3 of them went to a division of 3 yamatos who thought it was funny to sail through the middle of 2 brothers.  Amazingly we still managed to win the match, can't believe how bad the other team we're.  Seems all the halfwits come out to play later in the evening :teethhappy:

better off being specific with your reports instead of wasting them.

 

rather than use them on people who may simply not know what they did wrong, use them on people who clearly know what they are doing but just chucked their team under the bus by being cowards or edge trolls etc.

I seldom get through my negative reports. But I would like to have more compliment reports.

Yes, definitely more accurate descriptions. "Play poorly" itself is not something to report, but when you are deliberately ruining the game for your allies is not acceptable, and it happens a lot. There should be difference between these two
