If we are incorrect, then that changed fairly recently. There have been people who set out to prove that it’s purely automated.

Ok. Well the mods who actually, you know, know what they’re talking about and actually work for Blizzard say otherwise. But what do they know vs a level 24 troll?
Besides actually testing it?

Stop looking at chat and play the game? People like you just need to turn the internet off every couple days and take a break.
I’ve learned to trust player reports over any of the low information “mods” working at Blizz these days.

Oh, but it is. It’s called the Silence Feature, to get you to quit talking in Public Channels. I have examples. Do I agree with this behavior, no.
Let’s go back in time, before Blizzard changed the AV Que system:

Go check the customer service forums sometime. Watching idiots get called out by Blues is great fun.
Random fool: “I got muted by a bunch of people spam reporting me and this isn’t fair!!”
Blue: “Actually we review all mute reports and I can see you were actually muted for your conversation with “person x.” And this is also your third time in as many months.”

Watching streamers ask their fans to report them to test out “nonexistent” features, only to see them get disconnected and muted is also fun.

That’s a 4 year old post that was made using the old silence system. So nice try, but not relevant

But my examples are of this year. Only thing that Blizz changed was the AV Que System.
The only example you have any kind of proof of is from 4 years ago, and predated the changes to the system.
Conversely, I have this from an actual Blizzard employee responding to one of the many people complaining about being “wrongly and unjustly silenced because of mean people in AV!!!” You can see how that turned out for them.
This one is silenced - and for good cause.
This has also been reviewed and upheld and will expire the end of April.
It doesn’t matter if 1,000 people reported you, if there were no objectionable lines, it wouldn’t matter - so the who, really doesn’t come into play. Just a word to the wise when you can speak again, most folks aren’t going to take kindly to being told they are garbage and retarded.

Nah…
9/10 times when someone accuses someone else of trolling it’s just a difference in opinion.
Be less offended?
9/10 posts in these forums are trolling.

You mean, the only example you can refute is from 4 years ago.
My examples, of the AV issue, still functions in Silencing people which is automated, BTW. Of course, everything can be appealed, but if the point is to get you to stop spamming channels, silencing you, briefly is still a win, in my book.

What part of this is too complicated for you to understand my dude?
Where’s your proof that they removed it? Compared to WoW’s lifespan, 4 years isn’t exactly a dinosaur era. I will readily admit that I haven’t been keeping up, so if you have anything helpful, it would be great.

The part that it’s still automated.

Exactly my point.
New silence system was added with legion. You can google it and get up to speed pretty quick

Wasn’t Legion added… around four years ago? The age of the video?
You very badly want to believe that it was removed, but you have provided no reason to make you, let alone us, suspect that. Either you’re trolling, or you’re just contrarian for the sake of being different. Personally, I’m a believer in Hanlon’s razor.
