currently. i feel like the escalation system could be improved, the problem i see, is that people tend to not take it seriously until the 14 day ban step, but by that point. it's already too late, and just a single valid report means the end of your account. and people who are genuinely reforming end up getting permabanned. my solution to this. change the escalation steps

the 10 game chat ban is literally nothing, i can get a chat ban, play it off, AND be getting loot again in a day, so lets just get rid of it

the new system would look something like this

  • 25 game chat ban
  • 14 day ban
  • 1 year ban
  • account ban

You are missing the point. It is meant to be a warning, not a punishment.

No matter how long it is, some trash will simply ignore the warning and go right back to their previous behavior, and get a 24-game restriction or ban instantly. Mature players are going to realize they need to adjust their behavior, and do so.

Also not everyone is able to play 10 games a day, it is called "having a life".

I think the 10-game chat ban is important for those people who actually change their behaviour on the first warning. Getting a 25-game chat ban off the bat is quite extreme.

you're simply prolonging the punishment 1 year ban is as good as an account ban it'd be far easier to buy or relevel an account rather than waiting out a 1 year ban
