Intentially throwing to "get to bronze"

Game replay: PSZF82

Our tank claimed he was working his way to bronze, proceeded to throw the game third round in.

I gave up because there was nothing I can do to prevent this player from doing whatever he wanted.

This reason is good enough to not play this game. Players like this making new accounts to torment other players.

Sadly, there will always be cheaters, people who throw the game or are just blatantly toxic. Games are just a mix of people, just like irl. You gotta accept it and move on—I know it’s annoying but there is nothing we can do.

Also I did skim through the replay and tbh… it doesnt look like he is throwing. Just looks like a silver- low gold gameplay to me. What rank was this?
However, his name is suspicious and he might intentionally be playing bad which then my first point is valid.

People have done it for years. It’s a collosal waste of time.

But as long as you report them at this stage, they’ll likely not even make it to bronze.

thats no excuse for this behaviour - Blizzard needs to take responsibility for their inaction to prevent these things from happening.

If people don’t report them, what can they do.

Reports are important.

Dude, I’ve already expressed how little you contribute to topics. Please refrain from further commenting.

Bloody joke.

And you are?

Any ways. The only way I deal with them is to reported them as they are deranking.

After that, they are just playing the game.

get a life dude.

Dangers of posting on a public forum. Someone might reply.

Kinda repeating myself but…

If you don’t report them… then they can’t do anything?

There will always be toxic ppl, there will always be cheaters and hackers. There will also always be some anti cheat software and someone will find a way around it.

In this game just like any other… and just like irl… there will always be bad ppl but you gotta call them out on it or nothing happens aka report them in game. That’s all blizzard can do.

Since you somehow don’t feel satisfied with that option…what is your solution to this?

I’ll happily reply to this; since the other dude is one internet weirdo

sms + account ???

There are other solutions but none of which are being sought after because - It ISnT WhAT tHe PlAyErS WaNt - blizzard probably.

He literally said the same thing I said? :sweat_smile:

Some determined players can still use burner phones or online SMS services to bypass the system.

(Players in developing countries might have issues using this as they often use prepaid SIM cards which may not always support international SMS or verification messages.)

All I am saying is… what would keep a cheater/ thrower/ toxic person from just buying a new Sim Card for 5-10 bucks and make a new account?

I am on your side here, I wish there was smth else… but truly reporting is all we can do.

Replying in a public forum with correct information is ā€œweirdā€ now.

Surely that’s randomly coming in to a forum and flaming someone with no past interaction… That would be weird.

The system is rotten and protects these players, save yourself time and trouble : move on to another game.
No the report system does not work. Most of the categories are placebo just to make you feel good, as no system is able to judge the engagement of a player. The only thing that works is employing negative words apparently thats a high offense and bannable.

No it doesn’t.

It does. You’re clearly showing it does. You flamed people in multiple games, got repeated in multiple games and got suspended.

I hope you’re paid well to do this lame job…
Your claims have no value.
You don’t even read my post and come up with generic replies. Stop wasting people time.

I read your post and responded to the only points you made.

The system quite clearly doesn’t ā€œprotectā€ players. Look at how many claim they’re being falsely banned.

And the report system works. Again look at how many people are claiming they’ve been falsely banned.

But it works on matches reported in (not number of reports). So if you get suspended it is because you’ve been reported in a lot of matches in a period of time.

3248 posts trolling people (I checked other replies). Even if you’re paid that’s seriously messsed up. Get a life.

I can see why you got suspended.

You think someone disagreeing and explaining is trolling. If you can’t handle people not agreeing with you. The internet isn’t going to be your friend.

There’s something seriously wrong with this guy.

Report this troll.
