Comm Bans are ridiculous

[shane909]

At this point it's just bannable to do anything. I muted the people who had a disagreeement with me and moved on. Even played the game normal no nonsense. Then I get comms banned because a 4 stack wants to grief and group report. I'm banned until the 31st? Are you guys kidding with this? If I am trying to take active measures to keep gameplay smooth and was the ONLY ONE to mute anyone. WHY would I be punished? Meanwhile the other dude kept griefing and all his friends decide "oh it wil lbe funny to get him banned". Honestly whoever is in charge of this system needs to do a better job. Your community is just being abused by a bunch of griefers. I have no interest in playing properly now.

People get comms banned for muting problem players and minding their own business
Comms ban if you only use the comms wheel
comms ban if you don't talk
comms ban if you rub a 4 stack the wrong way. ( people are admitting to abusing this system ) I'll be making sure this bug gets exposed to as many people as possible until its fixed. Either everyone's getting banned or they will figure out a REAL system.

Group reports = ban. Have fun everyone!

It's just another case of a game thinking automated report systems actually work. It's being abused extremely hard right now.

yep its this pure threshold management that absoultely destroys itself. i got 2 vc bans of which i admit the first was alright, but the 2nd is absurd. i had 2 people in the lobby that were just running it down and i was the only guy talking, they both were chatting about how everyone griefed their lanes (both on solo lanes) and i was the only one to say they should just shut it and keep on playing, not even in a flaming manner even though they did exactly that. i bet both reportet me, therefore the system says the reports were right, there goes another 4d period of ranked vacation

I just got chat banned for saying "omg my team is so stupid" while the other guy called me a r****d... I understand your pain. All because of one ban I got previously, which was deserved.

They need to do something about this game asap or im just going to stop playing. If i cant talk at all in game without getting banned then fuck it. I was so happy to play this game, first game ive enjoyed this much in years and evidently the devs took inspiration from league of legends with the blue haired nerd ban policy. What a pathetic joke, cant play ranked again this week. Is it an AI detecting my voice chat like call of duty has? I really dont think anyone manually reported me, i was being friendly and talking to all of my teammates and multiple people commended me.

Just got comms banned for playing one game solo with a pre-stack. If Valve doesn't want me to play their game then I won't. Simple as. They can deal with their own failures just like Artifact.

I have a hard time to believe that automated bans happen just from a single game.
If it does happen from a single game however, thats kinda stupid.

It was absolutely after a single game. Only played 2 games that night, the first game I didn't speak at all except for wishing both teams a happy new year. Prior to that I hadn't played in maybe a week. I think it's some AI voice transcriber like COD has. I admit some choice words were exchanged with a repeat leaver, but after one game is ridiculous.

And what about past 2 weeks, what about past 2 months ?
The reports dont go anywhere, if you accumulate 40 reports over a period of time you are bound to get a temp ban.
