Do we report suspected smurfs as cheaters now?

[Lollash]

Since steam just updated their Online Conduct and included Smurfs in the cheating section, do we report players for cheating if we suspect they are smurfing?

[Chiyoko]

Nope.
You do, when there is a "smurfing" checkbox in the report function, like Valve did in Dota2.

Yeah, lol, that's why I think that Valve won't bother with smurfs in CS2.

And even if Valve will ban smurfs in CS2 (which I highly doubt), they won't let players to do that like with cheaters in Overwatch. At least in Dota2 Overwatch there are no smurfing checkboxes. Also I barely have seen someone has been banned for smurfing there, even though there are tons of smurfs in Dota2, including derankers and so on.

Yea

I cant judge if they are smurfing or cheating. In both cases they ruin my fun and get an unfair advantage over me on purpose, so both get reported for cheating from me

imo its something wich is futile to put energy in. They exist and ( most likely ) impossible to keep out of your games in cs.
The few competitive games I play have smurfs
In streetfighter ranked - ppl complain about smurfs
In warthunder - ppl complain about smurfs.
Ranks in video games have smurfs end of story.
You can have a battle against rain drops because you dont like them , but your not gonna win.

Use em to your advantage , players that are below your skill level teach you bad habits at least smurfs make you better even if your getting destroyed.

Well its still pretty stupid that player are defending smurfs with "just learn from them". But they never say something negativ that smurfs are only doing it because they dont want to get better, so they pick lower skilled player as enemy

Does the reason why ppl smurf have to change the way how you can handle them ? How you handle them is entirely up to you is what I ment.
Sure ppl that have a tendecy to stomp new players arent good sports I agree and maybe alot of ppl who just keep it at "just learn from them" as a reply.
Doesnt change the fact that whether if your angry at them or try to use em in your advantage , in both cases their gonna be around.

2nd or 3rd account is useful not to smurf but to play in event of cool down. For example, game crash and you cant reconnect. Other case is you encounter known / clear cheaters (thanks csgostat lookup). You can abandon in warmup and wont have to wait 30 minutes to play again.

Iam not angry at them, just annoyed that so many player defend them. For me its still cheating of some sort, thats why i replied that i report them. When valve adds a smurfing report option than i will obv use that instead of cheating

what does steam rules does with games lmao? they are just uselss.

everything should return to game devs choice other than is just straight rules no one will care about it.

Yeah it kikda remikds me of the behaving rules of blizzard/WoW, you had to accept a contract that you will be nice to people. Of course aole are still not nice to others but you know they will not get banned or anything for that. Of course when they do something really harsh, yes, but not for a single insult or a bit of griefing/leaving.
