Guild Wars 2

I would love a proper explanation of the point of the current report system: it does absolutely nothing.

I’ve had matches where people afk because they are upset you give instructions, or because they dislike you from a 1v1 server 3 years ago, and it’s so frustrating knowing that absolutely nothing will happen to them.

A valid report system will encourage people to play rather than afk and make the community less toxic. I don’t understand why the current ineffective system is in place…

well, yeah, did you think arenanet makes functions that work or something?

Didn’t reporting people in GW1 give you dishonored if the whole team did it? I can’t remember… I think there was a message too that warned you for abusing the system. I could be thinking of WoW.

Very rarely would you have afk in GW though. I think it happened mostly in JQ/FA.

They need to make it worthwhile to play, even if you lose.

People usually don’t bother if they feel they won’t win.

You still get rewards if you lose and still progress on the reward track. That doesn’t make losing fun. This is a “game” and people play games for the purpose of having fun.

To the topic, I don’t think reports are acted on. If they were, much of the pvp population ( including myself) would be banned.

As someone once said, report system was an april fools joke, but they forgot to remove it.
