This is not true, they still silence. You prob get three strikes, I’m on my second and I’d rather not get my third.
My main problem with the system is, I legit want to curb an fix my behavior and not get silenced again. But I never get a report sent on why I was silenced, I never get feedback on “hey, you can’t do that” or anything of that nature. How, am I supposed to correct my actions if I never know what they were.
The first time I was silence I had an idea of what I did. The second time, I really didn’t do anything bad, I didn’t swear often, I never flat out flamed anyone. I might of said something like “Hey, next time can you save the cocoon for this hero” or “hey, make sure to come to the objective this time”. Honestly, the thing that has changed the most is the amount I play, which has drastically increased. As people have said if you play enough ranked you are bound to get reported a lot.
