Account suspended for no reason
Logged on this morning to find my blizzard account has been suspended from playing OW2. I have only ever once received a text chat warning due to players reporting out of spite and since then I rarely ever speak/type in game. I was playing last night with a kind group of people and for about ten games we were having fun with zero toxicity. Then this morning im suspended???? I emailed blizzard about this but does anyone know if they even lift suspensions or how often do they get back to people? I've been stuck home due to a work injury and just wanna play Overwatch :/

People will use the report feature out of spite for no reason, i recently said this to a Rein: You lost of us the point because you where playing out of position" in other words he was randomly charging at the enemy team on defense and got punished for it. someone in chat says " that's toxic , i'm going to report you." This was just right after i got a 12 day chat suspension (which i got for saying Fu to someone). I didn't receive anything for it or that person actually didnt report. Blizzard has chat log and voce logs to confirm this reports so if they gave out a suspension based on nothing they are the problem.

It's best not to talk at all.

I still do, but it's best not to.

Fact.

People don't ever read the ToS.. which defines "abusive chat" in such a way that it's entirely subject to individual perspective..

Basically all reports are legitimate..

I literally copy paste "toxic player" in the description, while reporting players for things that shouldn't be punishable just because they mildly irritate me personally..

The system is broken and ripe for abuse, some just utilize it as vent frustration that would otherwise manifest as "toxicity"..

You can get reported for tea bagging, the system is automated

Buy alt account if banned. Don't pay for skins . Now what you can lose ? :)

I got banned too for saying kur word . I think ... Because otherwise I didnt swear at all . So will see what support says and meanwhile I continue on alt account I bought for 5 euros. Like people are really abusing the system and the bans here are the most harshest I have ever seen in an online game . 1 word was bad from the email I got = 2 week ban . Really weird

I was suspended from the game for two weeks because I told our tank (2-16 in two rounds) that he was a complete incompetent. From that moment on I decided not to spend anything more on Overwatch. I wanted to buy the battlepass and almost €90 worth of skins for Christmas but with the risk of my account being banned I preferred to avoid it. Now that's Blizzard's problem, not mine.

Except its not always fake..

People want to advertise their streams in game.. which constitutes spam, which Is one of the selectable options under abusive chat..

And since I know someone is going to say "it's not spamming if they do it once" .. your confusing spaming and flooding

Spam is unsolicited advertising...

which Is exactly what saying "hey check out my twitch" is..

I haven’t typed anything since I got a chat ban for saying “gg ez”. Blizzard got back to me three days after I filed the ticket and they didn’t give me a reason for banning me other than “breaking the code of conduct”. I didn’t type, didn’t use voice chat, didn’t hack, yet still got banned without a real explanation. The report system must be 100% flawed because I rarely even played ow2 and got banned after two days of play. They need to fix this.

No no. That's the official ban.

The second you hit enter on that message your entire count was shadow banned.

You will now be punished more than the normal player.

When they have a punishment loss lobby in mind, they will choose you first

My opinion, no proof. But I believe it to be true
