How do you deal with a premade team of toxic players?

The number of "autistic" kids in this game is creating a toxic atmosphere every few games. If you happen to have a bad start and you are with a premade of 2 or 3 kids that help eachother berate you will get reported by all of them for whatever they decide to pick, while all the remaining of the 9 players don't care to report. So you are left with getting automatic "warnings" while the toxic players go on without any trace of punishment.

Bruh.

One report nine games in a row > nine reports in one game.

It's not how many times in one game you get reported, it's how many games you get reported. The system is like that because of premades, and the infamous "x9 report." You're complaining about something that's not even a problem.

You handle toxic premades the same way you handle a game with multiple toxic players. You're not going to get automatically punished because of it, but calling them "autistic" just makes you look toxic.

Use the command /mute all in chat and put on a spotify playlist in the backround to calm you down and just play normal to practice for next game and completely ignore them.

1 report is all it takes. If you didn't do anything wrong they only thing they are doing by reporting you is reducing the value of their own reports. Just play through it the best you can and don't let them drag you into the mud. Mute and report them as you see fit.

Player behavior systems are not just based on reports. Even if a premade of 4 reported you, if the reports are false, you won't receive a penalty. All player behavior systems are backed by the Report System, which tries to validate every single report. If a report is false, the reporter loses "value" in his reports and the relevant player behavior system ignores the reports. If a report is accurate, the reporter gains "value" and his reports become more powerful. The current Reform System analyzes chat logs for negative behaviors, so it goes beyond just looking at false or accurate reports. I don't even remember a case where a player was punished because of false reports from a premade of 4.

Hello, first off thank you to Tombdragon, SmokedAlmonds, and Halloweendeath for their comments. They are all correct, well said. If you are reported by people you get a warning and all your chat logs and everything else is looked at. If there is no proof that you did anything wrong, then you are fine. However, please refrain and STOP!! using therm term "autistic" in this and other situations. Children and adults with autism are some of the smartest and kindest people I know and have met throughout my life. By saying autistic kids create a toxic environment, is just down right wrong, offensive, hateful, and makes you look like a horrible and ignorant person.

Sincerely, Swallower
