Dota 2
Valve got back to me about "behavior score." Anyone can help me out with more information?
"With that said, please note that Behavior and Communication Scores are updated after each standard match of Dota. The score values, visible on your player behavior summary, is a snapshot of your behavior score value at the time the report was generated.

Also keep in mind these scores are affected by factors such as player reports made against you, intentional behavior to grief or throw a match, and match abandons. These scores will increase by playing matches and not exhibiting the above behavior.

Ultimately, player behavior scores are an automated system, Steam Support cannot make manual adjustments to these scores. If you have an unrelated issue please reply here and I'll be happy to help."

From this, my understanding is that even if I play 1000 "games," and record them all consisting of my "teammates" doing the following:

-Feeding 30 times in 30 minutes, passed river, by themselves.
-Throw picks, throwing the lane's equilibrium early game.
-AFK Farming, Not rotating
-AFK in base

I'll still lose behavior score if I'm reported by the very people who are throwing the game with their behavior, but how? What does their "automated system" look for?

-Is it KDA?
-Breaking items?

That's really all I can think of an automated algorithm being able to identify unless they have employees that get paid to watch these matches and make the decision.

-What does "Action Taken" imply or even mean?
-What is the criteria for a report by one of these people on me, not doing any of the above, to reduce my behavior score?

I really want to stop playing and I'll be able to do so if I continue to see these people in ranked, because then it's just a joke that in the "competitive" mode people are still throwing the game.

How am I supposed to behave when my teammates are breaking the rules, to not trigger their automated system? What am I supposed to do, exactly?

-For example, right now, the "drow offlane" is afk by tower, and feeding. What am I supposed to do in this case?

Keep calm and be patient.

Valve employees genuinely believe behavior score is working properly.

They will just send you copy paste bullshxt answers about it.

My fav is how if you type *SPACEBAR*, literally sending " " in chat, you can be reported. Send that to allchat? Now you can be reported by both teams.

Click the chat wheel? Now you can be reported for that, too.

This social credit score system has been broken since launch.
