Two people with almost identical names are solo queue’ing at the same time, later at night and manage to be on opposite teams almost every time. One of them will afk or run around & do absolutely nothing productive causing his team to lose so the other gets credit. Is there anything that could be done to put a stop to this? Or would this fall under the “report & let support handle it” ?

I do have screens & names but idk if that would go against ToS?

I knew this was a possibility, and hinted at it in a previous post.

I can’t do much to prevent this, but this is something they can only do for so long before they are no longer queuing with each other because their MMR has diverged too far. They could still queue in the middle of the night, but then they’ll be limited by long queue times and an MMR that increases much slower.

Please report people that do this.

so instead implementing a report function, that actual works and places dishonor if enough of teamplayers had report them u think its better for all players at night to suffer by 2 trolls?

No. We have lots of players that share the same external IP. E.g. colleges, homes with routers, etc.

We’re working with custom support to get additional reporting functionality. Adding a stack of dishonor for being reported isn’t off the table either.

i think thats not a question of doing or not.. so it should be on the table. im sure u know u need something that ppl can help themself without support in a needed timeframe to prevent such behaviour or to stop it.

Ye when have lots players with same IP it should still be no problem for SoloQ to not match them. I dont think this would give them much longer que time and other reasons i cant see.

i dont think this would ever be a problem or people would even realize this when you filter this and dont say anything

or add a filter after first match played with same IP in same matchup they cant be again matched together for 2-3 hours – hidden, dont need to tell us

this would stop people use 2 accounts to push themself

or another option

dont allow them to play together in off-times so it makes them hard to be in same matchup

I believe this was a feature present in GW1 pvp, which was in my opinion, worked very well. Glad to know it might be considered

A feature that was also abused a lot for false reports. Especialy by Syncers.

Fact is that whatever you do to prevent exploits bads will always find a way…

I’m not a big PvP player but I still enjoy some on days when I have time (starting trying some SoloQ a few weeks ago but haven’t done a lot more recently because of being busy IRL). Idk how I’d feel exactly about adding a report feature à la GW1 “leeching” option.

I guess it would be helpful for resolving problems like this but, as Mladi has mentioned, there will always be that special kind of kitten that will hit this option because their “victim” is a scrub/bad/<insert kitten-ish insult> in their opinion, devil may care that the person actually was playing in the match. But I would hope that assuming someone that was wrongly punished with dishonor reported their case to you, the person abusing the report option would be punished.
