Reporting System Rework

[Darkzero3802]

Has anyone ever been in a match with a hacker where you cant report them cause they arent online or in your district? When they leave or get off it bypasses the ability to report them and they can keep on ruining the game for others. LO should revamp the system to where if someone is online regardless of where they are they can be reported and someone can be reported up to 5min after logging off. This will make it so that bypassing the report system cant be done and more hackers will get reported and removed.

Even easier rework: Just revert the changes to /who and that'll fix the report issue right up too.

There are still people who think the /report command actually does anything. Incredible.

It does though. It outputs a string of characters in to the chat box.

Just report them ingame and maybe they'll get banned in a few months (give or take) so you won't have to face them again. Hang in there!

We really have no proof if it works or doesnt given that G1/LO doesnt give us any proof that actions are taken or that a report is acknowledged. Yes you get that nice little text saying it was sent but thats like the auto response feature of the old support ran by G1, it dont mean anything.

It shouldn't take them a year to notice that the same players are receiving reports daily for not showing up for missions, getting lower than 0 score with multiple team kills.

MattScott has already gone on record that Little Orbit will do nothing about dethreaters until after the matchmaking and phasing updates (which are slated for after the engine upgrade, as they rely on functionality from it). In other words, get used to that because it isn't going anywhere for at least another year or two.

Honestly I don't know what the deal is with dethreaters.

It's a massive problem, but I don't know what is or isn't done about it.

Where did he say this?

In one of the many Q&A / livestreams he did when LO first picked the game up. His reasoning for making that decision was "dethreating is a symptom of the underlying issue [of impotent matchmaking due to segregation of an already small population]" and he'd "rather fix the underlying issue for long term health, than ban players that might reform". These are of course paraphrased, I'm not about to spend probably days of my time digging through old threads and/or video to find the exact reference.

 

You can agree or disagree with the decision, but it's the decision he's made and it's unlikely any of us can change his mind on it. For the record, I disagree with his decision. Dethreaters should 100% be held accountable to the ToS, and actioned accordingly (1st offense warning -> 2nd offense suspension -> 3rd offense permaban).

Its just that some people have been banned for dethreating.

Cause its the same exact thing that G1 put into place. Cause you report someone and your still seeing them in game days, weeks and months later. While fine LO doesnt give any ban names at the very least there can be a GM on that can whisper you about your report. This at least shows they are looking into it and in a timely manor. They dont need to share results of what happened.

But not nearly enough to curb this trend. If it was we wouldnt still be discussing a dethreating problem.

They weren't banned for dethreating, they were banned for something else and dethreating was just lumped on as an afterthought. How do I know this? Because of simple logic. If they were banned for dethreating, then roughly 25% of the current Jericho playerbase would also be getting banned.

To put this in perspective:

 

I see people speeding so they're not ticketing/taking licenses for speeding ...

 

They could probably take more actions against dethreaters more quickly, but then it comes to the question of is the needed work worth the effort for its results

I've had this issue with dethreaters and those with like nazi symbols or other such verbal things. Wish it was fixed.

If only we got LO to do something about this stuff. Maby then it would be fixed.

nobody cheats in apb, they just use programs for play better :3

No need to punish de-threaters if you just put a lock on missions once you turn gold in a bronze district. Pressing K will be disabled, until you join a silver or gold district.
