Overwatch ruined my rep and now I can't play any other games

The Dooie Dood · May 29, 2017

I've been playing pretty much overwatch exclusivley since it came out. People are very serious about it and will report you for throwing the match if you play hanzo or a few other charachters. Basically people will report you for anything. My rep just
dropped to avoid me, making not only overwatch but all other xbox games unplayable online. It will only match me with other avoid me players which makes most of the games unplayable. The worst part is, i bought all of my games digitally so I can't just get
a new gametag because my games are all tied to this gamertag.

I've contacted xbox support twice and that was a real time waster. They kept asking me to check if my gold membership was still valid and trying to say I had a networking problem. I have 2 xboxes in the house and the other one works just fine. They said
to contact enforcment for help but you can't contact them unless you have an active suspension or other action on your account which I don't have.

The other suggestion they give is to play other games which I can't do.

Overwatch players banning other players because they do not like their character picks?

Same thing happend to me. Ruined not only overwatch but all online play for me. I also bought all my games digitally so I can't just make a new account.

Can't get out of Avoid Me

My account has been stuck in Avoid Me reputation for the past couple of months since playing Overwatch.

I'm not able to get into many games because of the Avoid Me rep, but they say play online games against players to raise your reputation ... well can't really raise the rep when you can't play many games. Or when I do try to get in a match - it will try
to match you with other "Avoid Me" players .... which doesn't really work because they have just moved on and stopped trying to raise their rep.

I've been playing a Call of Duty game here and there, which actually lets me queue in with other players, but my rep hasn't improved ... what's the deal? why can't I see the progress? I have had an xbox account for almost 10 years now and now all of sudden
i'm "Avoid Me" and can't play.

Please assist. Thank you.

I mean the evidence is quite clear; in the 2 month that I've been playing overwatch competitively my rep cliff dived. If that does not show you that the rep system can ruin xbox for people, because someone else opinion on them playing a character they want
them to or the fact that the guidelines for report people is open to too many opinion and needs changing. I don't know what will.

you dont get it do you

It's not your opinion that counts it's the opinion of others

If you can't get along with others players then what's the points of you playing with 99.9% of players?

You see try issue?

It's your behaviour not the rep that's the issue

There is no need to be rude. I was just saying it weird how in the 2 month I've been playing overwatch and sometime playing the unlocked characters; that I seems my rep has been distoried. The fan base or the "99.9%" you say normally don't care who you play
or how you play. It the 0.1% or the people you seem to forget about. The salty, overally competitive and controlling people who don't care what you've done but will report the whole team for losing a game. It is those people that ruin the rep system. I'm asking
for Xbox to look at the rep system and maybe get one like blizzards system. One where you need proof of the offence before you can report. With the Xbox one able to record this should be easy.

Rep is the way other gamers consider your behavior online. To get a better rep play as many coop games as you can with a large pool of gamers.
