Take a game (a mere couple of minutes) I just had for example.
I spawn in and take off. About 30 seconds later a teammate swoops in from above and rips off my left wing and rudder causing me to tumble into the ground.
This was not caught as a teamkill, instead, me ‘crashing’.
What do I even do here except for hope that my report actually does something?
Its extremely annoying. Once i was taking off and some tool came over and hit my prop and was like opps sorry. Shot my guns at him before turning around to try and land and another team mate shot me down trying to gaslight me saying it was my fault and i was acting like in a bad way. Now mind you i didnt type in local or anything i was just taking off and gaining altitude.
Part of the community is very toxic and people find joy in making other people miserable even if it hurts their own team ( most of the time because they lack skills to get kills and take it out on team mates ) There was one guy who even made YT videos about it saying he was going keep doing it until he was banned.
The other day i just had some random guy start harassing me in ground. i was in a light tank and he just kept pushing me around and when i got to a place to fire he would come and hit me. No idea who this guy was asked him to stop and you could just tell that he thought it was just great fun to cause his own team trouble. reported him, but no idea if anything will come of it.
Its gotten so bad i dont even have chat up anymore. From people spamming radio commands to, trying to get racial slurs put in the chat where one person just puts the first letter and the whole lobby just starts playing along Its just sad at the state of what the community feels is acceptable behavior and how little it feels that gaijin does anything about these people who create a hostile place for the community
Generally, the core of the issue is - Gaijin will rather PUNISH the victim instead of the offender. I know exactly where this logic comes from, but I won’t risk a ban for pointing at the map.
