ShadowBanned on PC Spam reporting

[King Mak]

please fix this. Tired of people spam reporting me for no reason and getting shadowbanned then wait a week to be cleared then repeat same process due to these spam reports.

[Dewmuss]

Yeah I just had the same thing happen to me. What the hell lol. They don't even tell you

[Bilvio Serlusconi]

[JmZ-x-]

Enough of your lies.
Activision stated people who spam report will be banned and not the people they are reporting,

They suck when it comes to this because I can even hear the other team in the game of search report him report him lets ban him ect...

When you get a shadowban, there is always a history of cheating in actvi games behind it.
That is my understanding of how this Ricochet is working.

All this claims that they ban you for beeing good i 1 game, is utterly deflection of the truth.

I have done games with KD like 73/21 - 54/23 - 25/3 - 37/11 in a few hours and never got any bans. Only got a few warnings for Nick name and language, but no bans.

What you are saying is WRONG. I have just had my 1st shadow ban (7 Days) just been lifted today.

No bans now on my account. So........ If there was any evidence of cheating on my part, I would have still, either been under investigation, and would have had to either appeal or something.

So how does your comment hold up now.

Just search YouTube, and the amount of false shadow Bans caused by false reporting, because some angry Kid/Grown Man spat the Dummy, cause he wasn't GUD enough.

I thought the same as you... Reading of all these people getting Shadow Bans thinking they must have deserved it, because they must have been cheating.

But until you get your first Shadow Ban, you wont know how it feels.
I felt terrible, trying to rack my brains, what did I do wrong?
Did I have my VPN on and forgot to turn if off before connectiing to the game?
Was it my Razer synapse, ReWASD, some other program.

I only use ReWASD for starcitizen. But even when the program is closed it leaves a service running in windows services. I have now set this to manual so it does not start with windows.

I don't talk much on mic so I knew it was not for being toxic or anything.

Then the horrible thought, could I get perma banned? you pay a lot of money for this game, and to think you could loose access to it because of a Ban that you have no clue what if was for?

yep same here, literally get shadow banned at least twice a month. Super annoying

[RStark]

I am surprised someone hasn't been to court over this. Activision would not have a leg to stand on. But it would cost too much to do.
False banning people, and denying access to a game they have payed for, for 7 days at a time, even if the Warzone part is free.
Most of us still paid the £70-100 for this game.

I'm gonna play like a newbie, for the next 7 days.

[Cracker]

I made 10 frags and got SB, now I can't close the battle pass...........................

I got shadow banned second time in 3 days, this game ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sucks.

When people say spam reporting its just what they think has happened.
Whether or not one person reporting multiple times works is undecided but what is a fact is a certain number of reports in a certain space of time regardless of whether you've done anything wrong will get you shadowbanned, that is the issue.

This has been pointed out as a problem by numerous big streamers like Joewoe, Jgod, Whoisimmortal, swagg, aydan, just off the top of my head, and covered by gaming news sites like gamesradar and Charlie intel.
