Right Click Report is a Bad Idea

Sourcing the claims you make in a discussion is not some unreasonable burden. Especially in discussions where others are going through the trouble of providing links and citations for their claims.

Refusing to do so, while others do so willingly just makes you both look bad, and untrustworthy. People truly will just simply refuse to take you seriously, and rightfully so.

Warning is not enough. Should be a 24 hour account suspension, IMHO.

You claimed a simple search would provide the evidence… I did a simple search went through the first page of results and searched/skimmed the articles.
All relevent results on the first page only talked about Overwatch, and only talked about chat filtering not assigning punishments to offenders.

That does not help your case at all because it is completely irrelevant to the discussion.

Did found 1 fourm thread about people complaining about it, but one person making a claim does not support your argument, because anyone can make a claim. Like you claiming that this is a problem when it obviously is not.

Learn to follow directions… its a helpful skill
provide EVIDENCE(claims are not evidence)
from WOW(HoTS is not WoW, OW is not WoW)

I am not dismissing reality I am dismissing you because you do not provide any evidence for claims that contradict reality.

Actually, from what happened with the “I love WoW streamer”, he got a three day ban for abusing the reporting system.

It would be nice if that is how it was conducted. And general logic was lead you to believe thats how it is handled because its the right thing to do.

The issue is that profit motive trumps all in this case and what you have happening is blizzard gms engaging in a cursory look to find something to substantiate the report. They do not want to incur the expense of doing thorough investigations. The individual is not worth the expense.

They also do not want to create any mistrust of the system. They want people to think it works fine.

I have yet to ever see anyone post that they had anything overturned ever. Not one time.

When they review these their intent is to find anything to substantiate and move on, and the TOS is written so that they can.

Believe what you want though.

exaclty what I said you did.

You only did enough to say you did it. If you would have actually read the articles you would see they indicate they use them to dish out punishment.

Thats all I really wanted to know. If you actually cared about the topic and would actually research it, but you dont. You are just another dime a dozen internet forum brawler wasting my time.

Getting a bit conspiratorial there, are we?

Thats only true if the I say something that anyone actually interested in the topic couldnt easily find on their own.

If you have looked into it, you would know they have been messing with algorithms and machine learning with their reporting system. If you do not even know that, then use google.

you really think its tin foil lol

what are you 12?

Even better. A warning does not send enough of a message.

In some cases I do agree.

  • Cannot grasp capital letters.
  • Uses “lol” as punctuation.
  • Insinuates others are childish.

its called an internet forum

I think its childish to nitpick grammar on what is a very very casual form of communication.

when someone responds to you in text with a “lol” do you grammar police them?

I am quite convinced at this point that every action taken against your account has been quite justified, if not sever enough.

based on what

*also since you are policing my grammar, you misspelled “severe”.

:slight_smile:

Solely based on your behavior in this thread alone.

cite one example of something I have said in this thread that is bannable.

Also review where I edited to point out you are misspelling words while chastising me on grammar.

No. Its always true. This philosophy is as old as time:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burden_of_proof_(philosophy)

Paraphrased: ‘The burden of proof is on the one who declares, not on one who denies’

Now, I mean, you can do whatever you want. I’m just telling you how people are going to react to it based on conventions.

Why would I bother doing either one of those?
You’ve shown your character. Nothing else is needed.
The “what are you 12?” part alone speaks volumes about you.

None of the right click is instant. None of it. They will be using the same system as kn live. Nothing in it is instant. Once reported, it usually takes blizz around 3 days of investigation to do anything and they said you an ingame tell explaining it

They also look at the person doing the report to see if they are abusing it.
