It’s been mentioned on here previously, but can we please look at bringing in unlimited bans/avoids. I really don’t want to play with racist or women haters.
3 Avoid pins is not sufficient. If you were proactive with the reports you would have banned them, so perhaps you could clear down my list if you have done exactly that, Blizzard?
Unsure why you think just because not many people talk means that it is less likely to get toxicity in a match. Unsure why you think it is baited also, you must attract a lot of it in-game… and visibly so on these forums.
You shouldn’t question it, as you fail to understand basic English of even Blizzard comms as pointed out previously on these forums.
Surely that’s fairly logical, less people doing something, means the bad version is also less likely… It just makes me wonder what you’ve done to get so many people to fire abuse at you that you need “unlimited” slots.
I play in a trio, and last night I think we saw about 2 games where someone typed anything other than GG at the end.
Maybe it’s that player icon. Maybe it’s an attitude thing. Maybe you just get strangely unlucky.
Just matter of fact really. If you misunderstand basic English from a Blizzard communication, then it is very likely that you will not understand anything on here.
I didn’t receive the fire abuse, I never said I did - see what I mean by you misunderstanding what is said.
As you’re obviously finding this a struggle I’ll explain it in very few words.
I witnessed it.
It’s not nice.
I’d sooner not be matched with them.
I’d sooner not be matched with them - at all.
Hope you get the help you need as you’re clearly in need of it.

You are displaying again that you are unable to understand what you’re reading. Me (or any other user) pointing out your incapacity to grasp what your reading is not toxicity. If I mocked you for it, sure I would accept it is toxicity.
You sure seem ultra defensive and toxic because someone thinks the request is unnecessary.
That’s quite telling.
If you’re constantly experiencing and witnessing the bad thing, when others aren’t. Maybe you’re just very unlucky, maybe you deliberately put yourself in that situation.
Either way, unlimited would ruin match making, it would also have to be very rank dependent as it wouldn’t function in the highest ranks, or very low bronze.

Based on this from Season 12. You’d have to limit it to silver to plat ranks. At that point, what’s the point. Save yourself the hassle and turn your Comms off.
You keep mis-reading the above. No where did I say I was getting the abuse.
Again, you are failing to grasp what you are reading. Here are two users who have stated that they have suffered abuse - it’s not just me, I wasn’t even the on the receiving end of it .
Hope you get the help you need. Maybe show them this thread, it will maybe help guide them as to how they can help you.
I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he just needs some assistance.
i’m gonna be real, if someone is slinging racism or other bigotry in someone’s direction, i don’t think it’s that person’s fault for doing anything. these people choose to type that kind of nonsense all on their own and the folx it’s directed to are not at fault. REALLY weird to suggest it is
But if I was witnessing or recieving it so often that I felt breaking matchmaking by having unlimited avoids was he solution. I’d be question why am I always in this situation. What am I doing wrong.
It’s the internet. People will be toxic no matter what you do or say. That’s why you have all the systems in game.
You have someone above who’s pretending to be a someone they are not who’s openly liked racism on this forum (and their discord server)
Whilst players should be banned for it quicker. Unlimited avoids is the stupidest solution. As all they does it creates other issues.
Sadly, they are slow to react. So all you can do is report it, mute them and move on. If blizzard aren’t that bothered by it, there’s not a lot else you can do (outside of a complete boycott)
They should be banned for their behaviour - How would unlimited ban slots create other issues?
It’s mental that you think being matched with racists after you’ve witnessed it in previous games is not an issue.
If someone is being racist and not directed it at you, how are you possibly doing something wrong? If someone is being racist at you, how is that a you problem? That is that players mental capacity/upbringing perhaps, and should be punished. Mentioning your play style is fine, but racism is not acceptable - how can you not see that? You okay?
Would fundamentally ruin match making. Something they’ve discussed.
If they were racist last match, I’d of reported them.
If they doing it again, I’ll report again. If not, I won’t. Bans are dished out based on matches reported in, that’s all we need to do. Avoiding doesn’t get them out of the game/community. It just passes the buck on to someone else. At that point, all you’re going to be doing is burying your head in the sand.
If you really want to improve things, report them. Once per game, every time you see it. People think you can be banned for anything… Well, use that against the racist player.
No one said you were. I said if be asking why I’m in that situation if I feel it’s so frequent I need unlimited slots.
At that point, if I feel like things are that bad. I’d just stop playing the game. If you go to a restaurant and constantly see other customers getting abuse and the foods bad. You can complain, but you’d question why you’re going to such an establishment.
