5 guys working together can infact bait people into a vox bannning, by talking about a taboo subject then only reporting thier target and not each other.

As Skuzzy said, players are responsible for their own behaviour.

It's funny how you can have it explained to you multiple times and still not understand how it works.

The only flaw in the system is that someone can be .report'd 5 times for doing nothing wrong and still get muted, but then they just have to bring it to HTCs attention and they will check the logs and punish the 5 people who logged the false reports

Yes I get the fact  plus the fact that clearly while the report may be valid it can be 'gamed' to be used as a weapon if 5 seeming unallingned guys report 1 guy but fail to report the instigatoiors that in the case of Squat were WAYYY more offensive then what squat said then clearly the system isnt working. BAsically I dont think the whole truth is being put forth and the 'looking into it' wasnt paticually thorough.

Mass reports do happen, on occasion.  When they do, we fix it by taking the privs of the reporters away for the same period as it would have cost the person that was the target of the attack.


Once upon a time, there was a squad who did this.... prob still happens.
Yeah, that's right, you just got your rear handed to you by a fuggly puppet!

Forewarned is forearmed, in the future you and your squaddies will know that it's possible for 5 people to 'game' the report system as you describe and you can keep your mouths shut...

...or turn the tables and mass report the other guys instead?

I wonder what the more sensible option would be.  :headscratch:

On a side note, you really need a bigger phone or smaller fingers dude :P

On a further side note, I was mass .report'd by guys from a certain squad a couple of times, but I didn't cry about it because I knew it just meant I had succeeded at getting their little panties in a bunch :D (and also because I only play AH at the weekends so being muted for a week isn't really a big deal)

That's because you actively troll, and accept the consequences of those actions

Indeed :) Accepting the consequences of your actions and taking responsibility for your behaviour is a sign of maturity and something that adults do

I'm sure SQUAT will get there one day

You still don't understand the system?   :bhead

It takes 5 to report in the MA, only one on the forums

But if you get me perma banned from here you'll end up lonely with no one to argue with ;)

Nobody is being trolled. You werent there Dolby, clearly the system is not fail proof and the conversation that I saw with mine own eyes  did not warrant Squat neing text muted while the realy troublemakers  get of scott free. Ive already stated I dont think the investiagation was  very thorough.
