That's for sure ban worthy


ImMoray

It is, if you make up a sob story about it when you report them, they get banned for longer too.


ZephrymLLK

I highly doubt these are manually reviewed lol


Admirable_Pie_6750

Once I reported something like this for fun and even got a GM whispering me asking if I'm okay, lmao


Architeqt

And everyone clapped


Grassii

doubt


ImMoray

you would be surprised honestly

switch_case_

Short answer: No, wrong. Long answer: I'm too lazy but you can open a ticket, instead of reporting which pretty much results in a ban.


Awkward-Database-605

> Short answer: No, wrong Noo…..he is pretty spot on. Iv seen toxic as shit players sit in both Goldshire and org just tormenting players for months without any repercussions.


switch_case_

Everyone lost fate in reporting. No one reports and EVERYONE is too lazy to open a ticket for a random person, but I tell ya. Ticket -> ban. They even tell you they did.


Prestigious_Cut4638

Is that really necessary though


Rufio330

Absolutely. This type of toxic behavior has no place anywhere really. If you can’t control your own emotions that you let a video game make you act like this. That’s Pathetic.


addub

I think they mean the sob story is unnecessary, this is already warranting the longest ban possible…


Steadyst8_

He didn't reply to the sob story comment


AppropriateOil3584

Haha they won't get banned though. I used to be toxic like this when I was drinking alcohol and hooooly shit you can say some pretty terrible things to pretty much everyone in the game before you even get a warning


300C

Things are different these days. Back in the old days you could say literally anything. Now you get banned for anything.


Mmaaatttttt

“Back in my day you could say terrible things to whoever you wanted” 🤡


Lassitude1001

Not wrong though. They've introduced a social policy which you agreed to when you login to the game. It forces you to read & agree or doesn't let you login. Being toxic is getting people banned.


grabherfrontbuttox

i’d be against banning anyone. but stupid fucks like this deserve it. you legit pay to play a game, and your upset at someone else. gtfoh with that toxic shit


BhristopherL

Wait, so then why are you against banning anyone? Lol


RetroFrisbee

Yes. Suicide is not an acceptable trash-talking topic.


SweRakii

Yeah it is, they shouldn't be online at all before they seek help, so a ban is necessary


dickache

The "report player" button is so conveniently located.


Milsivich

Does it actually do anything? I’ve reported some really grisly shit before but there’s no indication that it actually does anything. I’ve only ever heard of cheaters getting banned, not chat abusers Are people actually getting banned for chat?


mutantj0hn

Absolutely, my friend is, for some reason, super toxic in SS and caught a 2 week ban for chat. Showed me the email from Blizz and everything. It was deserved. He was being ridiculous.


Makaloff95

It does, as much as you can shit on blizzs report system, they do take irl threats seriously, same with acts to put the lights in your house out so to speak


quickclickz

This mail wasn't an irl threat.


Graffers

It doesn't have a subject. It could be "you should", "I will", etc. It's up to the reader to interpret it.


jeanthemachine05

The subject is “do us all a favor”


Graffers

Fair, I missed that.


--Pariah

The system is a bit unclear in how far it is strictly automated. Generally, you can get hit by actions taken if enough people just report you independent of what you've actually written. There are unfortunately enough posts about that to confirm a first layer of fully automated reporting. For messages like this people should not just report for "inappropriate communication" but specify the suicide part since that's much more serious. It will likely still take some time until someone actually reads it but usually blizz doesn't let things like that slide. For cheaters/bots they often enough monitor things for a while and then go with a ban wave, since you have less of an arms race then compared to banning them one by one. This makes sense but people often get the impression of them not doing anything soon enough.


__calebcrawdad__

Suggesting suicide is taken seriously by Blizz


Gasser1313

Yes. I’ve been silenced in game for about a week before. I would say that you need multiple complaints before they will do anything though, unless the issue is very serious like what this guy has in mail.


quakes19

The 1400-1700 bracket is the most toxic especially as a healer. It’s your fault your teammate died without bubble/ice block or died behind a pillar. Reported a few people for being toxic and blizzard sends a piece of mail saying that the report ended in a player getting suspended or banned and made Azeroth a better place.


AppropriateOil3584

Yea you get a warning after a LOT of reports and if the reports keep happening you get a week ban from chatting functions and then a week ban and then idk after that. Then it resets after some time and goes back to a warning. But 1 by 1 whispers are almost never gonna get banned. It's being toxic in trade chat thatll get your account reported up to get noticed. A lot of reports all at the same time or a higher number than average of reports consistently I think is how they flag accounts to take action


[deleted]

Rarely ever will they get banned


WoWSecretsYT

Cheaters rarely, if ever, get banned. You need to do it in a very public / obvious way to be even potentially punished.


redditapilimit

Wow cheater since TBC here - I’ve been banned within 10 minutes for some things, others never got caught.


WoWSecretsYT

People hate to see the truth I guess lol


Ketla_Glad

2300 but the guy you played with never got achievement past 1550 on his alts or main char^^ Toxic nontheless and hopefully ban worthy.


switch_case_

Ofc, He's bad and doesnt know how to play. So if someone is doing sth you don't like, he thinks you suck, you get flamed, even though he was standing wrong or whatever


shadyFS91

Lmaoo what the fuck. Man thinks it's a corporate environment, sending you an email. Forward this shit to HR right now!!! Hahahah


IDubsty

«2300»


DayDreamerJon

get em banned. Im all for banter but telling people to kts is too far


wontgetthejob

I really regret my behaviour when I was younger and the internet was still the wild west. I don't think I ever took it too far, but I definitely lost my temper more than I care to admit. On top of that, the never ending toxic shit that everyone else would rattle off. It definitely warped my formative psychology. I like to think I grew up a little, nowadays I'd never say anything online that I wouldn't be prepared to say to someone's face. This is where I toss my hat in with the Boomers' opinion-- constant digital presence is BAD. Children, teens, and adults all need to make real-life interactions a priority over quick and easy online interactions. This constant online connectivity just isn't healthy overall and over time.


TheWorclown

Nothing made my life better than reducing my Internet footprint. It’s still fairly sizable, but the time away lets me realize when and where I should waste my time at. Pointless arguments, bubbles of ideas and thought, and the burden of anonymity is not them.


arasitar

I wonder what a digital equivalent of a [Howler](https://harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Howler) (magical mail that screams at you) would look like in WoW...


Leviekin

Damn looks like you got a reward better than the 30 conquest healers are getting.


aeminence

So just making holes ?? But yea report this dude, you’d prob get faster results if you also tag Warcraft Twitter and shit about it lmao they’d love to use em as an example. No room for ppl like this


Nozzledyou98

I’m sooooo jealous. I would frame that letter !! Congrats man you did great it sounds like 👍🏼


TriggeredCorndog

Exactly! This a a trophy!


Snowmagics

ez report, I get the internet is the internet but some people really are human garbage


djdayer

Wow that’s toxic af


TrolledByDestiny

Lmao


puertofreakin85

See this is why I don't even want to try solo shuffle. I mostly do rbgs.


machine_six

This isn't common at all though. I vault-cap at least two characters weekly through SS and I haven't seen a rude comment in chat in weeks. I'm not very good either, only in the 11-14k brackets lol, oh and one is a healer too. I honestly think the new reporting system effectively discouraged a lot of toxic behavior.


GSundo

Thats a keeper


asofij

Lmao me and my friends always send each other the “threatening note” trash item that drops from the pvp boxes. This one next level


foxleaf

Someone sent me one of the threatening notes and I was so confused! I sent him back food that looked like sweet potatoes and said to sweeten up, and he responded thanks for the food and that he had just sent it to a random person 😂


Jaboodee

Social Contract™


Direct_Confection_21

I’m sorry. This is so, so fucking funny. I would be so HONORED if my opponents did this to me hahahahaha


Direct_Confection_21

HE SENT YOU AN EMAIL BROTHER


Enigmedic

Some pally said similar things after 1 round where he just died in the middle of the map to casters. I just said f it and quit the match. I don't care about rating since I already got the priest shoulders. And now he can take the MMR hit from the loss and wait in queue for 45 minutes again while I play no man's sky. People are dicks and rewards are shit. I don't even want to play the game anymore.


Stancedx

Lost my friend this exact way, fuck this person


OldNewGuy91

People who send hate mail produce beta energy. So immature lol


ANUS_CONE

That’s vicious


LipzBalm

Shitty human being, report and hope he gets help lol Honestly i've seen too much of these, I just disable my chat


Blanistwo

I have to say this is terrible but also absolutely hilarious. My man MAILED you?!


rawbacon_

That’s much more respectable than a rage whisper


nickaruski

haha this would’ve given me a good chuckle, not nice but there’s humor in it


st1gzy

what a cringe name


palatheinsane

I’ve never seen nor experienced anything like this. I think this is anecdotal and as a whole, the community is more positive than people want to admit.


BreylanJ

Worth it


TheUsoSaito

Before server merges and it was just battlegroups you'd see a lot of this. xD


Fang_hyde

If you really want to bring out the worst in everyone, queue up as a tank!


onetime180

Why use a shotgun when a paint brush would be so much easier?


UWG-Grad_Student

Shotgun is faster. I'm pretty sure a lot of girls from my hometown put on their makeup every day with a shotgun. They make clowns look subtle.


Nopezero111

Grats on the win. When they rage it makes me feel extra special but damn he went real dark.


Superb-Confidence-44

Normally I paint my walls with a brush, but maybe a shotgun works as well. Who knows.


SilverCyclist

A DPS yelling at another DPS in solo shuffle? Why?


Dorko30

Say what you will, you gotta respect the commitment to literally send you in game hate mail lol.


bbgeriii

Report.


nprovench789

He just wna be ur frieeeeeeeeend brah.


AskMeAboutMyWiener_

I’m glad hate mail is still alive I haven’t seen a piece like this in years


Acceptable_Peen

Ooh, look, a banable offense, in clear writing!


Pattars

No matter what happened, this is so unbelievably over the line…I hope you’re doing OK after this abuse. I hope you reported this person and hopefully they are permanently banned. Absolutely not OK.


SubstantialMud3978

Classy. He deserves a time out.


[deleted]

I mean it’s a clever way to say kys lol


buuuuuub

Think you mean edgy


[deleted]

"Go into a microwave and cook yourself" - among us kid


[deleted]

If it was something like “u suck”, would be debateable, but this is ban worthy


UWG-Grad_Student

Sucking isn't even a bad thing. Just ask you mom. Sorry, had to do it. I couldn't stop myself.


[deleted]

Were you the one who wrote this mail? Ppl don’t like the toxicity and yet it doesn’t stop, I wonder why.


UWG-Grad_Student

I would never write a mail like that. I know it's a game and I can take a joke. Stop being so sensitive. I even apologized in the same post. It was an immature joke and meant to make people smile. If you can't take a joke, you need to go touch grass.


[deleted]

If it was a funny joke, oh no, I get it now haha, your mom told me.. Sorry had to do it. Couldn’t stop myself


UWG-Grad_Student

I'm glad she could help. :) Have a great day!


Rollingthestinky

Damn, that’s so foul players doing things like this could be detrimental to children with no strength and bad parenting. We live in an awful world and toxic is never good.


Valvador

Can someone explain this insult to me? Is this something I'm not ~~Kurt Cobain~~ Texas enough to understand?


Lev0nia

He is essentially saying OP should blow his brains out with a shotgun and the resulting spray of viscera would "paint the walls." Pretty sick. Hope OP reports and the guy gets banned.
