…on how incredibly-lame this community is. So I’m playing quickmatch right and I get up because my dogs started barking and demanding attention, right? I mean it’s quickplay why would that be a problem? I come back a long moment of time later because I have more important responsibilities around my house, only to find out that I’ve been suspended.
It’s like Jesus, Christ what is with people?
You’re fighting like your lives depend on winning a match of freagin’ quick play.
You need to find additional hobbies and distractions. Seriously.
I’m a new player and my experience has been absolutely horrendous.
This is simply a member of the opposing team playing sombra, using her to find your address then sending someone to knock on your door so your dogs can bark. Kinda sounds like a tilt ngl
Did you at least type in chat “sorry, dogs need attention” before going afk?
Also, when you say “more important responsibilities”, are you referring to taking care of the dogs as being more important than the game, or are you saying that you had more responsibilities that you also dealt with while you were up?
When you said long moment, I’m thinking you should’ve left the game instead of letting yourself get reported for being AFK. Since team fights in this game last only a minute at most, a few minutes away can seem like an eternity.
Yeah last time I played a match, I got up mid way through to go to the bathroom. Then I decided I should cook dinner and take my dog for a walk… and then my neighbor needed a hand with something in their yard. After I called my grandma to wish her a happy Easter, I came back just as the match was ending, and all the mouth breathers there had reported me for being AFK.
You were just automatically kicked out due to inactivity.
And the suspension timeout is automatic as well after leaving enough games (4 or 5 iirc) out of your recent 20 games.
Same thing will happen automatically in comp, if you leave just a single game.
tldr; most likely no one reported you and it was just all automated.
Reports from players result in outright account bans for longer periods.
This doesn’t seem like it has anything to do with quickplay sweats. Its more like OP just got DC’d for inactivity, which suspended him. One time my PC froze because I ran out of Vram in the middle of Overwatch (or however that works), and I was suspended. I had no one to blame but myself for having a million tabs, Blender, and Daz Studio open.
Same applies to OP. Yeah, it sucks, but at the same times the rules are rules. Sorry this was one of your first experiences in the game, but it wasn’t like people reported you or anything. I think.
@kongajinken: you seem to think that real life doesn’t matter. But I think real life is important!
Kirei: Why would you assume that it’s a matter involving Sombra, at all? That’s kind of strange…
RightHandElf: I mean yeah I didn’t do that how rude of me. I’m sorry for being so heinously ignorant and seemingly to have offended an extreme matter of tabboo for you. I’m pretty sure my soul will be fine…
