How to report a player
Game Versions: 
When should I report a player?
The best way to handle players that you find irritable or rude is to add them to your Ignore List.
On rare occasions, when a player's behaviour has escalated or persisted beyond simple trolling, you have the reporting tool at your disposal.
What does the report tool do?
The reporting tool sends a snapshot of in-game chat to us. We will then look over the report and take any necessary action.
Although we do not send out confirmation messages or updates, rest assured that all successfully completed in-game reports are processed and reviewed within 24 hours of being submitted.

Not sure which offence to choose?
If you are not sure which rule to choose, choose whichever rule you think is the best fit, our Player Support team will still know how to handle your report.
When to submit the report
Please report the incident as soon as the offence has occurred. Chat reports will only contain the in-game chat that took place at the time it is sent.
