The "Is it bannable/reportable" thread

[Brilliand]

it should be bannable if someone admits that they killed someone because of their IGN.

Oh for sure.

The borderline cases are the cases where they don't admit to it.

(I really hate the "punish it if they admit to it" policy though, because it rewards people for lying.)

[kyuss420]

Should reghunting be bannable? Imo yes.

I just start scrolling for vet or medusa, and take em out with me, they soon to learn to stop.

Different for ranked i suppose... but if you know someone can carry 8 noobs and still win the game, of course you gonna target them early game, so its kind of hard to proove

as godfather, is it reportable for killing the town traitor?

In contrast, as TK Town Traitor, is it reportable to shoot a Mafioso?

I think if the Mafioso is in agreement with being shot to help confirm the TT TK, then I don't see anything wrong with it. It could be a good play to sheep the town.

If the Mafioso does not want to be shot, then I would say it would be reportable.

That's just my thought process though, I'm not 100% sure though. Would probably have to ask a Mod on this one since TT is still pretty new.

[Brilliand]

If the Mafioso does not want to be shot, then I would say it would be reportable.

I think the actual judgment would be made based on whether the Vigilante had a plausible plan for how it might help his team, which is a lower standard than getting the Mafioso's agreement.

[James2]

It makes no difference whether the mafioso agrees or not. The only relevant question is whether the TT Vig had a legitimate reason for shooting the Mafioso.

The same is true for a GF killing the TT.

[Hiway202]

I'd say that could be considered bussing unless the TK Town Traitor admitted somewhere that they were trying to lose. But I mean, if a jailor or vig TT kills one (or more) of their maf members, that could help confirm themselves as town.

Having "Gay" in the IGN because you're gay, eg. "GayWerewoof"

Leaving when the others are reporting you for doing so and being generally hateful about it.

having ''gay'' in your name - not reportable (Altho no one cares if youre gay or not- stopping bringing it up - you guys are like the vegans of sexuality)

leaving - reportable

being hateful towards gays - reportable

Being a Trump supporter, and saying maga?

I was looking at my reports and I got reported for hate speech for saying I support trump and said maga.


I also got reported recently because I was an Amne turned plaguebearer, and I was in a situation with a mayor, another townie, and a coven leader with the necronomicon. Mayor voted the coven leader out letting me win. I got reported along with mayor because I sided with him to win myself while mayor lost.

1st two = not reportable, but no one cares about who your favourite politician is, so idk why you bother bringing it up (republicans are like the vegans of the political world)


as for the last one, sounds like town got salty because they lost with a mayor alive, or the noobs just assumed town is meant to side against NKs, in that situation (like they were never trying to find the coven at all)

If someone has a clearly reportable username, is it reportable to target that person for their username?

This question was raised by a recent report: Veteran with a racist name kills half the town

In that report, the witch clearly admitted to targeting the Veteran for their name, and the Vigilante tried to lynch the confirmed Veteran, again for their name. Neither of those people were reported for their actions, nor were reports duplicated against them by jurors... but should they have been?

(I would think so, but if so, the fact that it went through the report system without getting duped against either of those is... weird.)

Fellas is it bad to hate racists

[MozarteanChaos]

is it bannable for a new/recently returning player to accidentally "throw"?
for example, someone playing maf in coven any, checking the wiki and seeing that witch wins with maf, but missing that maf can't win with coven. said maf then outs themself to the witch they believe is present, since they think they combined with the witch have majority over the town.
since this is a genuine mistake, would this result in punishment?

[Brilliand]

Fellas is it bad to hate racists

I take it your actual meaning is "it's always OK to act out hatred toward racists". If so, you'll have to explain yourself, as that isn't consistent with the current rules at all.
(If not, then I request that you express yourself more clearly, as that was horribly vague.)

Even if they break a rule (i.e: their name), it doesn't give you the right to break the rules either, especially if it's a rare moment where they're actually trying to win and play the game.

So yes, this is punishable as HS/H for targeting anyone (no matter the reason) for their name, skins, etc.

Sorry I don't speak right wing grifter

Not sure how this is right-wing but ok. Let's not bait folks, let alone bring politics into basic humanity. Post removed.

Genuine mistakes are not considered gamethrowing. There is some gray area because intentional gamethrowers will sometimes claim to have made a "genuine mistake", but the judges have quite a bit of information available, and will most likely be able to tell the difference.

[Joacgroso]

Even if they can tell the difference, they can't do anything about it unless the reported player actually admits he is throwing on purpose.

[TheDwiin]

alright, question, would it be considered game throwing if your death note was a really obscure reference to your chosen name?

[Joacgroso]

I just had a game where it came down to 2 maf vs confirmed veteran. I tried to lynch the vet, but the other mafia kept voting against me, only to vote against the vet at last second and inno. He kept doing it during the next day, but luckily for me the veteran left (intentionally, he admitted it) and we won.
The other mafia member fervently denied he was gamethrowing, and it's true that he didn't visit the veteran when he could have easily suicided into him. But his move was still obviously malicious. Would that have been guiltied if someone besides me had reported him? Is there anything I can do to get the report sent to the trial system?

[Pixies]

Can I get a offical response to this please -

Is it a reportable/bannable offense if a veteran goes "TP LO ON ME"; goes on alert and kills town? In all modes, not just one. I've been in too many town traitor game modes where the vet goes "tp/lo on me" and goes on alert, only to be town, not the traitor. This should be a bannable offence.

Ive been told game stalling is reportable, tho i cant find a rule on it anywhere, and yea it would have been guiltied.

Not gamethrowing, altho it is a dick move and quite dumb. Jailor should have jailed it n1.

I mean I doubt that cuz game stalling doesn't fit under any of the categories you can report for. It isn't gamethrowing cuz you technically aren't hurting your team's chances of winning.
