I read about the wrongly accused penalties in point 1, do they still have negative consequences for the innocent, in this case I’ve posted, me?
If you mean that you might face a temp ban if you get rammed by a team mate and then marked as team killer despite that you were the ramming “victim”?
Yes, at least in theory if this happens that often that you trigger the threshold of the auto-ban system. But - if you play “normal” the chances are extremely low as the temp bans we see from time to time in this forum (most threads get deleted/locked) are a result of massive amounts of team kills within short time frames.
Have a good one!

If you think this through you might just create another form of team killing - guys flying intentionally in your bullet/shell stream or missile path.
The same guys ramming you right now on purpose would have just another tool.
Gaijin is simply struggling with the idea of severe punishments - on one hand they rely on player commitment (team killers might invest money too), one the other hand their product in itself is far away from being free from errors which is proven by the reversal of responsibility in case you get rammed.
So it is somehow comprehensible that as long as technical errors exist it looks strange to punish players way harder than today.
Just imagine that every guy wrongly accused of being a team killer would create a support ticket asking for a reimbursement of wrongly charged team killing fines - or every player who got teamkilled in the “normal” way would ask for a refund of activated boosters or wagers - and a compensation based on the average SL & RP income of his last 5 matches. They would have to hire more staff…

The current event makes this 10x worse. Wyverns constantly teamkilling Wyverns over “their” base. It’s happened so many times. Reporting does NOTHING.
People can get away with one or two TK’s intentionally and it’s not enough for them to be banned.
How hard is it to give spawn protection for the first minute so you can weigh up who are the clowns and who isnt?
In fact, why is a tk in the first minute of an RB battle not just an auto-kick/ban?
There’s 0% chance it’s an accident that early into the game.

Nothing gets done because the company does not care. If you paid them to review games they would be all over it in a flash, but no profit no interest.
Just got pushed into a river by a player who spent minutes doing this straight from the spawn, complained but I bet nothing will be done and if it is a mere slap on the wrist and maybe some harsh words.
This was done deliberately with malice for no reason, this type of action even if committed only once needs harsh penalties and even bans.

Things like this gets punished on a regular basis. They started posting about those punishments about a year ago:
And they have included all bans that are a week or longer in all the “Fair Play” posts ever since, here is the latest one:
That over nearly three years is a minuscule amount of players, even if you strip out all the inactive accounts that Gaijin use to increase the player numbers when advertising all the hype.
I would bet this is only the tip of a very large iceberg and the vast majority of players that do this ,will slip under the radar as they will not be reported or will not generate enough reports to be investigated.
I do not trust anything Gaijin produce to back up their argument, they are not a trustworthy company.
Where did you get three years from?
Yes, that’s the point, they only publish how many got larger punishments, A LOT more players than those listed got shorter punishments.
Three years from your first copy and paste propaganda ’ Since October 22nd, we’ve issued punishments to 25,013 accounts’. That indicates it is a running total from that date until present .
A sliding scale of punishments does nothing to deter people, their actions indicate that they do not want to actually play the game and are only here to disrupt and make an already poor gaming experience even worse, or that they cannot control their temper.
Either way not a person that anybody would actively want to interact with.
This is my last post on this matter, the forums like the game are not a mentally healthy place.
That post was made Nov 14 - 2024 , and is referring back to Oct 22 - 2024 . So ~3 weeks , not 3 years.
If it ends in permanent bans it does.
Why are people this mad?

Then there is no need to post about it on the forum :)
Over the years i have seen exactly one case in which the Head of the GMs acted almost immediately after a team kill of a nuke carrier:
I just needed a valve because it really made me angry. Such people do not belong in a computer game
Ok question as you can see the matchmaker kicked me for no reason, I have no TKs and if i did it would show my SL for the match as negative and show in with all the hits and whatnot. So was i just wrongfully kicked or did something else happen?
Post the replay link from the server replay site…

Although i think i may or maynot have pilot sniped the canbera as you can see he flies right in front of my sight as im shooting the MG
Congratulations, you got kicked out by accidentally turning friendly Nuke Canberra’s inner wing slighly yellow after he dropped the bomb. Shows perfectly how overzealously Gaijin protects them against teamdamage because large number of players never wanted nukes ingame and teamkilled them.

wow alright thank you for the confirmation. this is dumb tho as we all know that there are people who actually tk a nuke and get no repercussions other than an SL penalty if even that…
