"Honor Unlocked"

TheDenz··5 votes·10,075 views

I received my first ban (Deserved 14 day ban due to certain words being used). I reflected on my ban and for the most part have reformed, I do occasionally swear and get mad at people sometimes (I say it out loud in person) but I don't type in team chat to flame and I no longer trash talk enemy in all chat. I even noticed that when my friends are getting mad at player who are feeding and I am actually the one who is settling them down from flaming someone who is not doing so well. Because a lot of the time if you flame someone for doing bad they are just going to feed more. We are all bad in sliver anyway haha. Anyway, I was unbanned on the 4th of October and have been very honorable.

Last night I got a pop up message saying:

  • Honor Unlocked You are now unlocked, Keep playing with honor and you'll level up.

What does this mean? Im still dishonored on my profile screen but does this mean that I am making progress or is it a bug because it has only been 5 days since my unban?

so basically, ive been banned for toxicity as well, and i too have the unlocked honor msg. But its been quite some time since then and im still honor level zero. All i can really say is keep playing and hopefully it'll bring you up to level one. It does mean you are making progress though

Yeah I'm going to keep playing for fun instead of focusing on winning when it comes to ranked. All that used to matter to me when it came to ranked was winning. Its been helping a lot and I actually end up talking down people from flaming people who are flaming because they are viewing the game just how I used too. Im glad that it means I'm making progress.

Best of luck with regaining your own honor!

The dishonored will stay there until you level up. Honor Unlocked is telling you that you can now gain Honor again so that you can progress.

Thanks for your quick response!

I have never experienced this before so I thought I would ask. :)

Kudos to you for putting in the effort to reform, and encouraging your friends not to flame.

The unlocked message means you have been unlocked - your account will now start working towards higher honor levels. After your punishment, there's a period where you're locked - kinda like probation, during which you won't even make progress towards the next honor level.

having my honor locked just means i be passive aggressive to bait others to flame

stupid system gives no incentive to reform when its faster to level another account than it is to have honor unlocked

going 10-0 in placements every time is easy as pie to get right back to gold 2 and get season rewards so it doesnt matter anymore

Why does having honor locked cause you to be passive agressive? If anything you choose to be passive aggressive because not having honor prevents you from being verbally agressive to others.

You should look at why you feel the need to verbally assault someone and when you can't do that, why you turn to be passive agressive instead of truely reforming.

I got my honor unlocked in literally 1 day, you just have to not be toxic in the next 20-50 games I think
