IamTroublemaker Beta Tester 2,287 posts 11,047 battles Report post #1 Posted February 22, 2018 So, my dear WG (I don't really mean dear but hey...) how about you finally do something about the most idiotic and unfair system in this game which is the reporting system? I got reported TWICE since my last chatban, and I got chatbanned again, and the guy that reported me was a GK camping in our spawn for 15 minutes with full hp because I called him a 42% wr bot, even though he was previously insulting me... I don't understand this system at all since my karma has only been rising and STILL I get chatbanned. This is really pushing me away from the game, being unable to say hi to my mates in game because some angry kid felt like reporting me because someone citadelled him... Wrecking someone is punishable, while being AFK and a teamkiller doesn't get pusnished. Clap clap 6 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

K whatever thats what the report system is for. the next game tho i tell my dds to spot. and then there is that chance that he reports me as well. OR that next game where u get a tripple BB division who all move to that cap we already have and be useless the whole game. then u tell them to move to an other cap. they get offended as well and report. as long as ppl get offended by every small thing on the internet this system is useless. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[-EXS-] Hades_warrior Players 5,381 posts 6,643 battles Report post #7 Posted February 22, 2018 Another thread about broken report system. Goodie... Its funny to see how people with big karma rage more for getting reported compared to people with low or 0 karma who doesnt care about it at all. I got chatbanned again few days ago just because i call my team mates braindeads after they all run far from assisting me while I was capturing Cap zones and solo pushing. Life sucks, part of games community sucks, get used to it... WG did say they will do something about Team Kills but its unclear yet what. And system report abuse is not their priority atm. Im curious how much chatbans did Flamu get so far since he rage at his team mates a lot. Potato this, potato that, etc etc... Hm or does even people afraid of chatban him just because of popularity.

FallenOrchid Players 2,234 posts 20,517 battles Report post #13 Posted February 22, 2018 We don't know how the system works but it might be the threshold for a ban is lower after you received some bans. Player with previous bans says anything (not offending) in chat -> gets revenge reports by sunken players -> auto ban Player without previous ban says anything in chat -> gets report -> no ban (or check by human mod) 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

K whatever thats what the report system is for. Calling someone retarded, is a pretty serious insult. So yes, that's exactly what the report system is for, I guess. Few people would consider it acceptable in polite society to call out insults when they meet in person. In most places it can even be regarded as a criminal offense. And yet, for some reason, a lot of people seem to think that those same rules of conduct do not apply when people meet over the internet. But the main difference is only that there is a veil of assumed anonymity across the internet; meaning - among other things - that a lot of people think that bad behaviour over an online connection carries no consequences. This is not so. People who are insulted over the internet, can still feel bad about it. They can do so even though this may not have been intended by the other party. Carelessness may not be as reprehensible as intentional mischief, but its effects can be just as bad for the individual. From what you write about "people growing a skin", I would guess that you have the fortitude to shake off most of those insults and aggravations that may come your way when you're online. If so, this is good for you, and I believe that in most situations this is the right way to go about it. But others may not feel the same way - and I would also like to think that you wouldn't want to hurt people who have done nothing to hurt you. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just like the pink status: you get longer penalties sooner the more often you commit friendly fire. Some people may even be in the situation that they forgot how having a ship's green icon is. When having an automated system for this things it's pretty simple to remain in such "reoffending" status. Well, as the say goes, "summum ius, summa iniuria": full justice -i.e. a strict application to the letter every time- (means) full injustice. Salute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[NWP] Ubertron_X [NWP] Beta Tester 2,657 posts 25,762 battles Report post #21 Posted February 23, 2018 The problem is that the report for "bad" language option, is the ONLY known report option that has proven to have any effect at all. Report for playing poorly? - Either really does nothing OR is perceived to do nothing (apart form the fact that this reporting option is most stupid to begin with)? Report for unsportsmanlike conduct? - Either really does nothing OR is perceived to do nothing. Report for being AFK? - Either really does nothing OR is perceived to do nothing. So what do you do when you want to report someone with at least a tiny chance of something actually happening and regardless of what he did? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[NIKE] Xevious_Red Beta Tester 3,412 posts 7,888 battles Report post #23 Posted February 23, 2018 I personally have never had a chat ban. However I also generally dont use chat/keys apart from designate target/affirmative. If I do use chat its usually something positive and not directed at anyone, like: "theres no one here at C, lets swing down and support B" even if what Im thinking is "ffs go to B dumbasses we dont need 6 ships to take an empty cap" However im fairly sure (read: I think read somewhere) that chat bans are a slippery slope, so when you get 1 it makes it easier to get a second. Repeat that enough times and those people can get chat banned very easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[HOO] BeauNidl3 Players 2,192 posts Report post #24 Posted February 23, 2018 People with repeated chat bans are their own worst enemies, they behave obnoxiously, get banned, fail to learn the lesson and repeat, some of them even spam F keys and map pings (which they know can't be blocked) just to annoy the rest of the team as some type of petty "revenge". If you don't like being chat banned then change your behaviour, it's a problem with YOU not the system or with "thin skinned" people who find your language and behaviour childish. The system isn't broken it's your behaviour that needs to be fixed, even the dumbest kids eventually learn from repeated visits to the naughty step and the system treats serial offenders harshly which is fine. Grow up and you will stop getting chat banned, making threads like this every week or two just gets the same responses which is it's your problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrFingers Beta Tester, Players, In AlfaTesters 3,242 posts Report post #25 Posted February 23, 2018 I got reported multiple times for pinging the map once on campfests on the J-line, followed by a “????”, or “capping wins games, you know”. System indeed needs an overhaul (for instance: plays badly impossible to give for the first 4 players in the resultroster) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
