Add an Abusive Ping option to the Report Options

Im tired of hearing pings everywhere. Yes, there is a mute. But it doesnt stop it from coming in the chat and it lighting up my minimap.

Yes, I know pings are helpful, and yes i do know there is a limit. But the last game i played, 3/5 teammates were pinging nonstop. They were spending more time pinging on enemies rather than playing the actual game.

Why are people allowed to ping on the same thing 5 times? Why are they allowed to use those blue pings all the time (other than to point things out, other than that theyre just an annoyance)?

Is anyone with me? Because all I heard the entire match was PINGPINGPINGPINGPINGPINGPING PING PING PINGPINGPINGPGINGIPGNPGGNPIGNPGNGPNGDOJFHWDIPSHFHDJ:LCNBPISDHCHOJSN

I can't upvote this enough.

I'd like it where if you muted someone, you only received one ping from them. I've had people that flipped out when I politely asked them to only ping once, and they start pinging my dead body. 'lol how u like that lol u cant stop me from pinging' /careful pings on my corpse x 20

What constitutes as abusive? I have had times where people would complain i didnt "mia" despite the fact i did ping enemy missing, and according to them i didnt ping enough times. To some people who ping 3-4 times are abusing it, where as someone who just spams it. everyone has different opinion on the matter. But ill admit it can be irritating.

It's not really necessary as an option; it's covered already. Tell them to stop spamming ping and write up a report mentioning it if it continues.
