Where's the game moderation?

What's response time like?
It's disappointing to put in a report, deal with the crap for an hour to put in a more detailed second report, and see no action and hear nothing while waiting for any sort of admin to show up. Or is this just the cost of admission for the game now?
I'm tired of putting in reports and seeing inaction. I can count on one hand the number of times there's been feedback on something happened. I've seen the same people running around continuing to cause problems more often.
So what's the point of taking my time to put in reports on this crap if nothing happens?
It's great fun to watch players get harassed without penalty. Or to get votekicked when you say something about it. Or to listen as, over the course of an hour, some 11-yr-old kid starts using more of the same language as these idiots.
Seriously, why is global VOIP even a thing? Its primary purpose is to troll and harass.

I go public with this crap because I'm completely tired of seeing things get swept under the rug or ignored in the past. It seems like this is the only way to get the team to actually act sometimes.
It took you longer to split/remove posts than it would to even PM a non-answer "We'll handle this."

A beta player came on.. who I assume was probably the person responding to the report but only seconds after they all left. Go figure. I'm there.. left thinking they may think I'm filing false reports
It seems to me pointless to report things most of the time, because by the time you have tabbed out, gone to the page, typed up the report and got back in the offender is either gone already or gets VK'd by the players in the server anyway. Hopefully they may make the process more streamlined somehow one day.
Also reported a clan 3 times for votekicking me from official servers and they stopped doing it but no idea if my reports made them stop or had any effect at all.
I love this community!
I want to see action. If embarrassing the moderation crew publicly is what it takes, that's what I'm going to do. Who's going to get acted on first: the people reporting bad behavior or the people acting the fool in the game?
You just do it, then.. well.. nothing.
Screw the name-and-shame policy. It's only around for appearances and to cover up for shortcomings in the in-game mod system.
It's now banned after the
latest update.
Define "no issues." I've defended the system in the past, walked others through using it... and then had them complain to me days later about "This guy's still here and he's still using XYZ 'tools'."
What's the point of spending time coding an in-game report system, a process that's only going to DRAMATICALLY increase the number of reports through ease of access and awareness, if the current team can't respond to the reports they're already getting?
When the game has no real logging system in place (especially for VOIP) and the admin team won't act without personally observing actions, response time HAS to be fast or nothing's going to happen.
I remember Bear on there!
This has been a test of the emergency flame-fest system. Please do not adjust your set.

Meh. They act out in the game, people deserve to know, especially if the admin system isn't accomplishing its goals.
So you've taken action against me for bringing them up and deleted some of my posts (again). What's been done for the in-game situation?
In all seriousness, our in-game moderation matters a lot to me.
This situation will be investigated, and we will make improvements based on what we find.
We're all only human and mistakes do get made. We are doing all we can to make it so these type issues don't happen with release.

It should be also possible to have a adult style of naming&"shaming".BC didnt "smack talked" at all,he just described the situation.
To kill this at start is kinda being lazy of the mods. They just could step in IF the situation escalates.
no?
There's a reason this rule exists on most major game forums.
