I've read a lot of good concerns by players, and good answers by the mods. This is how things get better. We as a community who love to play this game have the ability to make this system work. Make good reports with good evidence to backup what the admins have to do. Those that camp in places and report every little thing need to stop. I see violations all the time. But most do not affect my playing in the game. I used to report players with cars and trailers till I was told it was only a kickable offense. So I don't do those anymore. We should only be reporting if another players actions cause us damage, which is all I report. Give this time to work, and see if it has a positive impact when we play. I like the fact that admins and mods are working to improve the game, which is more than I can say of some games I have played. Think positive!

Hopefully, you did not mean it the way you wrote this. Submitting a download link for the evidence is considered to be insufficient as admins are not going to download things since it may contain harmful software or anything similar, thus your report will be declined and a negative reputation is going to be given in that particular case. However, uploading them on (e.g.) YouTube (or similar) is totally fine as long as it is not too long (in that case, add a timestamp, please). What I meant is I set up an account on You Tube to download the videos to, and submit the link in the report. One thing that annoys me is my report being declined because a player is already banned. If an offender gets reported by another player that's great. But if the offender continues in game (say a few minutes) to block, ram, etc against others in a different place, by submitting another report against the offender should show this player doesn't care about the rules, and any ban issued to them should be lengthened.

I can understand rating the reports sent in. That's why I downloaded recording software, editing software, and a place to download the videos for the reports I send in. I edit my videos to show only what is relevant to my report. There is a lot of house cleaning needed in this game, to eliminate those who refuse to get along and play the game right. I hope this new rating system will help to reduce the bogus and poorly done reports, so that the admins can quickly review relevant reports and issue bans as necessary. Currently the process of reviews by admins is erratic. Some of mine have been handled within a couple of days, while I have one that is 16 days old and counting. I understand that the admins are players like me, and are trying to make this game enjoyable for us all. So I'll not flame the length of time to review reports and just hope the reports can decrease because players are being more inclined to follow the rules. I also hope the reports decrease so we all can see swifter action on reports. A quicker response to violators should help to show the admins are in control.

Sounds like there are way too many players not following the rules. I can only hope the admins are able to catch up on all the reports, ban players, and start to see the violations drop, due to players seeing that they will be held accountable for their actions. I like the new system, very good effort to try and make the game playable for all.

In my 15+ yrs of playing mp games, I have never seen a game have so many players in a server. It's a testament to the game, and the great work done by many with TruckersMP for this community. Well done.
