To avoid burdening drippy and the admins, consider using !report only for chronic behavior affecting many players. If someone is being a jerk to you only, try suiciding and sit in spawn for a minute. They usually lose interest when you disappear.
| | I find this a very interesting comment; while I understand the "burden" aspect, I believe that by at least making a report it creates a record. If this person makes a habit of this type of behavior over time and there are records, then admin has something to go off of for any action that they may wish to take. An option that may not be explored absent a record.
But, to clarify, I intend report for things such as spawn camping (which oddly enough there has been a bit of lately) or repeatedly being team shot. The one big iffy is the team infecting by "player"; there is a doubt as to who this "player" is, and while I know you can stop play and id this player; that just defeats the purpose. | |

I think what Wally's saying is to try and deal with the situation yourself by defusing it. If someone IS being an asshat intentionally, then you can use !report on them.
I try to take the "high road" on most of it, and see if talking to them does some good. If not, record them doing it, and !report. Threats will get you nothing but grief. If you act like an ass, they'll continue to do it because they know they've gotten a rise out of you. | |

I had not considered that !report creates a "record" that the admins or drippy can use. In that case, multiple reports on the same player would be evidence of widespread asshat behavior. I had the personal experience of a player that was following me everywhere and shooting me only. I tried to tell them it was stripping armor, but without effect. They weren't disrupting the overall game so I suicide, sat out for a min, and when I returned, the person stopped doing it. Apparently they suffered from ADHD and 1 minute was enough to lose track.
I based my comment and suggestion on the fact that drippy has often stated that abuse of !report is an offense in itself. I guess I would always err on the side of not using it unless it's severe, but everyone probably has a different definition of severe. Maybe drippy or an admin can give us more concrete guidance here.

abuse is like repeating the same player for the same thing 5 times in as many minutes
since i put a limit on the number of times you can !report in a game, its not an issue really.
