A small idea to reduce toxicity

[Mercedeez]

I think APB should have a way to apologize to the enemy after the mission.

There is already a lot of toxicity in competitive games and I think more games should have systems that encourage positive behavior.
 

So after a mission you should be able to press APOLOGIZE and send a message to the other team.

I think it should also count how many times you killed the player.

If you killed them 1-5 times it says “sorry”.

5-15 times it says “really sorry”.

More than 15 should say “I apologize for my behavior”.
 

This could make APB more friendly without removing the competitive part of the game.
sorry i used help from ai to help write this because my english isnt so good, thank u for understanding

It's called chat. How did you manage to login to APB being illiterate?

[MACKxBOLAN]

first you would have to code that in, be time and sweat on LO, secondly it's really worthless.

specially when they gonna curse your mother, and your threat color, and demand you Uninstall. 

Aint nobody 'Sorry' in apb, I might crash u by accident otw to a mission n say, 

I dint mean it but I aint sorry, in chat.

If anyone kills more than 15 times, it's a cheater.I'm sorry that I have a trigger, a cheat, and the devil knows what else is in the game. Understand and forgive

to get Forgiveness you must first REPENT. The MM needs to Repent from its evil toxic ways 

of putting low - average vs top end golds, and or Matt needs to advertise to bring more into NA, 

so we have a decent pop to MM from.

Come on mack. isn't it fun playing a match, and you get stuck in a 2v2 and the other side refuses to raise it? isn't it fun when you match up and you check the board and the other team is a bunch of cheaters in a premade team. isn't it fun when you start or join a match and you team is 2 bronzes and a t vs 5 max or almost max rank golds. isn't it fun when you get a match and you teammate is a troll that you can't kick becuase the game claims he did nothing wrong. so you force a TK and the game has him rejoin as back up? come on mack the match making is PERFECT no flaws at all here. perfectly balanced

There's a reason why the game is +18 year old recommendation.

- Not that I defend toxic behaviour, I hate it myself. Buuuuut, apologizing to another team/player should be the offender who's doing such, not the "team" and/or because of kill rate. I mean, come on, it's a video game, it's supposed to be fun playing it, while not just quit it and do something else.

Only fun If I get to kill one, which 1 kill is nothing to a sweat, but U got killed by Mack, n that stings. 

 I only tk if they call me pedo, n i dont care if the mods know that, n ill do it again. Beings there is no 

rule enforcement in game as there is in discord. 

 Now due to lack of rewards for levels, lack of a game pretty much, I only come in for kills, 

with no regard for winning. If i have no chance at the kills I'll rq, with threat not being the reason, 

it's simply a waste of time if I can't kill one. So I'm not playing for xp, only to kill toxics.

Matt has turned the game around to where its just full of filth. I can't trust the mods anymore than i can trust 

tthe toxics/hackers. So its me vs Them and their cronies. I think LO is bias, seem to only put rules on me, every1 else can 

do as they please. I'd be instantly banned if i pulled any of whats goin on in NA, yet their buddys get away with it all day

This community is too far gone not to be toxic. Too many blatent cheaters that know they can get away with anything and know that LO GMs cant and wont do anything. The community itself knowing what is right and wrong and chosing to do the wrong thing anyway despite complaining the game is dying and that people need to behave better.

News flash. IF YOU WANT THE GAME TO BE BETTER THEN CHOSE TO ACT BETTER YOURSELF. It starts with you and the choices you make.

I totally agree with you on this, +1. 

Should be a sticky post though.

the entire lore of the game are kills... kills from one side kills from another side. You can say sorry when you win, as many times as you like. Its called whisper. Nothing stops you.
Encoding this is pointless. 
It would become as automatic messages none of us read anyway like "your ammo refilled". Nobody cares.
How many of you read entire lore of every single contact you maxed? I bet not even 0.2% of population. 
To end toxicity is impossible but to lower it down is very possible and yes like someone already said upper, it starts with you. 
Be nice, dont do evil shyt which you know is evil. 
Dont pretend to be friend on empty district ram raiding 2hrs and then switching to ur cop char and come back and witness the guy u were "friends" with for 2hrs. Which is what happened to me.
We were chatting, he knew where I ram raid, my path, to which contact i deliver. He switched to cop ambushed me waiting me at Chiro in container box and witnessed me and instantly started to shoot me in my back as i was delivering items. 
Yes thats toxicity. Thats what makes people quit game or at least not login every day.
People are trash. And you cant believe nobody in APB unless you have some friendship built for last 10-15 years inside of the game and that it all worked flawless.

Actually a lot of the players are now using "nice try team" or "good try team". Which is a way of acknowledging to your team players, that are pointing out the cheats, that all you can do is accept that the Cheaters are a part of the game.  So they have a choice, try or chose not to try.  But if you chose not to try, then why play.  The best way to consider fighting cheaters is to liken it playing a P&P game and your DM is annoyed so throws your party into a random boss fight. At that point all you can do is try. (an prey to the goddess of luck)/
