I have never been notified about them being banned, and I'm still reporting them, but please... Please Psyonix... Do something about this ranking system... People smurf even to go on top of leaderboards... You can just go there and see that almost everyone on top is smurfing... The tournament rank doesn't even matter since there will always be a smurf in there...

have you ever actually checked the top 100 players for ranked? not a single person on there is an alt account or a Smurf. in fact, almost every single one of those players is on a steam account that is 5 or more years old.

And no reporting doesn’t do anything as of yet. Only bans that are handed out are chat bans.

We regularly perform waves of bans for various offenses other than chat offenses. Generally, when we do, some of those players come to the subreddit and post about it, but those posts are largely deleted.

Is there a point in reporting anything other than chat offenses? Why are the other options there?

Our ban waves I just mentioned utilize the other report reasons

Will we be told if they are banned for other reasons? Had a tournament teammate this week that scored an OG in the finals and then decided to start playing for the other team throwing the match by playing goalie for them and then actively shooting on us. Would really like to know that action was taken to get these behaviors out of the game…happens much more than it should in competitive too.

I've mentioned it before, but it's on our radar for us to provide feedback popups for more than just chat reports.
