I was abused over microphone from the very start of the game. Muted all the players on team, continued. When they clued on, abused me in chat; I got frustrated, ignored them all and continued playing. Then at the end of the game, I get kicked for my items even though we were clearly going to win. To top things off, they log on to different accounts to laugh and further abuse. I have had the game since 09, and this has happened so many f*ing times it's ridiculous.

The thing which frustrates me more, is there is no way I can report these idiots ruining the game, because I wanted to play without interruption and was quick to mute and ignore. But, because there's not "5 lines of abusive chat to cause emotional harm" I have nothing to RAP them for.

I assume nothing will change, and nothing will happen even though I have further taken the time to make this thread. But S2, if you come back to me with good news, I would be very satisfied to know those people have been dealt with.

If they performed excessive verbal abuse in the game chat, you can still report them for it with a good chance of it getting suspended. If they did most of it using the mic then that's too bad because there's no proof if they do it that way.

Also, I have not heard of the "5-line rule" - as long as the GM judges it to be excessive verbal abuse, then they can be suspended.

The in-game RAP says 5 lines.

There is no such rule as the 5 line of abusive chat rule, what you are referring to is:

Which is referring to chat macros not abusive/racist comments.

If they excessively abused you in chat you can report them.
