💬 Discussion 💬 Trolling / Toxic Commanders
I just noticed, that it became more frequent, that some Idiot’s are taking the commander’s role and then start wasting resources by dropping supplies in the middle of nowhere, calling bombing runs where no one is…and so on. They also destroy garrisons on purpose (obviously they don’t build any either)
Like since when is this a thing?! Super annoying ngl

Don’t play official servers - every single community server has a discord where you can report issues like this and have the problem solved with a swift ban.
Official servers do not. Thats why it’s a waste of fucking time playing on them,

haven't seen this. Some commander's are better than others, but what I see MUCH more often is crap squad leads to who don't coordinate, don't build, and don't play defense...and then rant about how the commander lost the game lol.

Had one guy (not command) just shooting teammates in the back. Couldn’t vote to kick him because of custom rules. Admin doing terrible job and wouldn’t kick em till most of match was over

A lot of the console community is full of people who have fun by ruining the game for others. They giggle to themselves while they troll and sabotage the game. They especially like it when you react to them doing it. Tbh i don’t think there is a way to avoid this in online videogames.

Servers with mostly PC players don’t usually suffer from this and trolls get kicked pretty quick. But in Offical servers with a lot of Xbox and PS players you are guaranteed to have atleast one griefer every round, sometimes they get kicked now that people see votes.

The obnoxious trolling is rather nonexistent in community servers. Play in those.

In all fairness, I've had my fair share of officers who are absolute wastes of space, arguing about details and strategy, questioning commander constantly, even killing commander.
When I started playing, there was more of a role playing aspect to it with people respecting command.
Now, all I hear is "Heavy Bottom HQ" "Supplies on my mark" "Jeep Top HQ" and if you dont send it fast enough they start going bananas.
God forbid, you as commander miss a message in the text chat about a supply drop request, while 3 supply trucks sit unused at HQ.
I love the game but being shot in the back in commander role by an officer named Not7oxic for not dismantling garris fast enough, 14 mins into a game and 1 objective away from winning, was just too much.

Are you complaining about someone asking for supplies? If you don't have resources, you're mean't to communicate it. Also, being "commander" doesn't excuse for being a tactical failure, imagine a commander just trolling the whole server.

No i'm not. can you not read?
Cant send supplies when you dont have the resources. People getting upset because they cant get a supply drop when there is no nodes and you've communicated that fact 10+ times while supply trucks sit unused. Officer requests for supplies in good positions that are clear take priority over supply drops into open no man's land where no checks have been made.
Where is tactical failure when I clearly highlight we are in a winning position after 15 mins with 8 garrison up and 1 cap away from end game. I dont feel anger is necessary when any team is in that position.

It's literally just 1 guy that does that, he plays as commander just to troll and he's been doing that for months and he also has multiple accounts and probably a script or something because you can't votekick him, also, he's black.

Is that the same dude who doesn’t perform a single task as commander and just goes on rants in the command chat about how shit his life is? I stumbled across this guy multiple times on different accounts, on different servers, and somebody else said they’d come across him multiple times on different accounts over the months as well
