Mass reporting

How does the ban system work in this game? Is it automated based of mass reporting?

For non-participation players may report you if they feel you may be /afk or not participating. When enough reports are received in a match you will usually receive a temporary debuff that encourages you to get into combat. If you do not, you are usually removed from the match.

Those reports may also trigger an investigation, but none of that is automated. A member or members of a specific team are tasked for these kinds of things and will look into the reports and your in-game behavior to determine if there is evidence of participation in the Battleground or not.

I been reading many topics about bans on bgs, seems like some also get a ban because people report you for not playing the battleground they way they want, like zuging in the middle for 45mins or defending bases for too long. Seems like a very flawed system if thats the case.

Some may report if you are not participating in the manner they feel you should, but that doesn’t necessarily do anything. As I said, the application of those penalties are not automated. They are based on your actions, and the data your actions provide.

With that said, it is important to keep in mind that a Battleground is a team event. You aren’t there solo, so to a degree, it is often necessary to work with your team. If you are going off by yourself to defend a lone tower, without the support of your team, and you never really encounter anyone else to defend against, well, that really isn’t participating.

Mass reporting does nothing unless you’ve actually broken rules

You can report those if you wish.

“Mass Reporting” really isn’t the thing some players would like you to think it is. I’ve yet to see a single report come through here, claiming that - that was accurate.
