I actually haven’t reported anyone other than gold sellers or bots in my experience so far in the game.
This thread was started to discuss how the CoC can be interpreted into ways to basically get anyone banned.
I have been a victim of this recently and wanted to bring this issue to the forefront. In my opinion the CoC is awful and is so vague basically anyone can be banned for anything. You could argue that anything is unfair and if enough people do this you aren’t going to be able to access your account through no fault of your own.
I think the issue here is that you’re under the impression that anyone that knows what they’re doing is actually reviewing each of these reports and making individual decisions based on TOS documents. That doesn’t appear to be the case. If someone gets reported enough for literally anything, they’ll get banned.
Based on my experience with the moderation department, I would be surprised if the individuals at the moderation department actually play New World let allow know how to interpret gameplay footage.
I do think if AGS hired a few GMs per server who are active players it would improve their customer service tremendously.
Additionally, telling players why they were ban would go a long way, too.
Reticle really doesn’t do anything. Doesn’t change game play at all. Simply lays over top of the existing crosshair, and makes it a different color and easier to see.
The nvidia thing, is just a way to tone down graphics. Doesn’t significantly do anything. It does hide foliage, but you still can see name plates through it regardless if you use it or not.
Kinda a iffy thing, considering it’s a feature from nvidia, and a lot use it to just make the game run smoother.
Would be like saying you aren’t allowed to map keys differently or change your mouse buttons to best suite your game play.
Ok so if im level 60 and someone else is level 10 i should get banned because its unfair if we were to fight? Like i legit cant tell if youre trolling or not
The point is, the way the CoC and the moderation is set out right now; this is a real possibility.
Anything could be argued to be unfair and thus against the CoC and if enough reports are sent - you better believe you are going to get banned. And if you log in to find your account banned and claim to have done nothing wrong you aren’t getting unbanned (unless you have a large social media presence probably).
This is the way it is right now. I don’t agree with any of it. This whole thread is a ridiculous idea, it is only here to mirror just how ridiculous the current system is.
Why would I even want full bis gear to be deemed unfair? I already got all mine, and I put in the time to acquire it and be pretty decent at using it.
But hey if enough people report me because they think I’m cheating as they can’t kill me, then guess what? I’m getting banned for violating section 3.4 of the CoC and I can’t do anything about it.
I don’t think that’s true. People discuss it in global chat and people post about it on the forums, like this:
By the way, I’m not trying to throw that person under the bus or anything. They could have been joking. I don’t know. My point is people discuss it and do it frequently without any repercussions.
