[2020] How can we punish griefers in ranked

Originally posted by Ryanator97: I made the mistake of trying to enjoy myself solo in ranked yesterday and ended up on a team with two players that refused to play unless the rest of us team-killed a teammate they had some issue with. They took the defuser to the edges of the map, stood in front of everyone on our team to initiate RFF, placed rook armor outside, called out our positions, and destroyed all friendly gadgets. Obviously everyone reported them on both sides but as per usual, I doubt anything will come from it. Worse yet, these players were smurfing on secondary accounts with no care as to how their rank was affected. I don't know what the solution is for this but it ruined the game for everyone and after getting placed into a second match with them after, I just quit playing :/ Is there any solution to this beyond reporting? Should I start just screen recording people like that? I get that it's just a game but it's a huge waste of time and ruins your rank when you get stuck with people like that.

Hey Ryanator, it's super unfortunate to hear you had such a toxic experience at the hands of your own teammates, I know that must've been really frustrating to go through. Thank you for reporting those individuals by the way. All reports are looked over and investigated by a dedicated team, so reports most definitely do work!

Having toxic teammates is annoying, but even more so in Ranked since leaving the game would result in multiple penalties. The dev team is still looking at new and efficient ways to combat toxicity as a whole in Siege, so if you have any suggestions on ways to do that, please don't hesitate to share.
