        Hey, you still owe me a fifty game winning streak. Haha, just kidding.

        You said it wouldn't affect matchmaking, but I lost most games before getting banned and afterwards, I got really nice players for the first time in like a hundred games for my allies and I won every game.

        I will mercilessly add to my ignore list anyone that makes an incredibly annoying signature.

          Did you make it more difficult to get communication banned? It seems like it just takes 1, maybe 2, reports to get muted. Should take MUCH more than that.

          Also more generally, would love to know why the manual "mute" button is not sufficient next to each player.

          This patch will not stop the abuse.

            Your report system is still incredibly flawed. It is *not* ok to let players ban other players from the game and ruin their experience without any accountability, checks or balances.
            Any 4 man stack can choose 4 people per week to ban for shits and giggles. That is not ok.

            Normally I'm pretty fair minded on these sorts of design things, but this is just awful
            Stop. You guys have no clue what you are doing. You are terrible at it, you are greatly damaging the game for many people. Cut your losses and revert the system.

                        Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. It would be nice if you guys would seriously consider a gamemode without chat - it was way better than I'd have thought.

                            Same old story yet, 4 man stack can mute the 5th player for shits and giggles, being negative or confrontational in any way gets you a 5 week mute.
                            Retards and resident forum trolls use my signature ad hominem against me so have this instead.


                            Do yourself a favor and add resident troll Noo to your ignore list.

                              Well, communication ban in a team game is so counterproductive... The biggest issue is still there with the team mates suffering more from the mute then the muted player
