    Don't care that I lost. Don't care if I get banned. But JBravvv is a bunt glitching, base running, bunt dancing, quick pitching, bunt dancing piece of [censored] and deserved the MULTIPLE reports I sent in.

    Players, no, pieces of [censored] like this are what give online play a bad rep and shouldn't be allowed to draw breath; let alone play the game.

    I play strictly online and almost never run into this. Like literally almost never. 8f it happens I just keep it moving. Why let it defeat you? Why stop playing online and just play against AI? It's ridiculous in my opinion. Defeating a computer program gives me zero sense of accomplishment and doesn't feed my competitive side. If I could play conquest and that other god awful boring offline stuff online I would be happy. To each their own. But as someone that plays 90% 9nline I can tell you I almost never see this type of opponent. I feel people just complain about it when that happens once in a blue moon

    are you me? you are bang on mate, i feel exactly the same and only play online too - the computer just doesn't give me a rush at all

    People still seem to get “pitching quickly” confused with “slide steps where the ball comes out of the other side of the relievers body from an invisible arm”

    He wasn't slide stepping. He was quick pitching. If he is releasing the ball BEFORE I can even move my PCI; that's quick pitching.

    If he's thrown 3-5 pitches within seconds; he's quick pitching.

    If he releases the pitch BEFORE I can bring in a pinch hitter for my pitcher; he is quick pitching.

    Its never made any sense to me that this exclusively seems to happen to players that only play online once in a blue moon. I'll see it one every 100 games, if that.

    I'm pretty sure it happens to people that don't play online much because they are always playing the low end players who do this nonsense.

    I dont play much online because I don't enjoy it and part of it is that I rarely match up with someone who isn't doing these stupid things. Played a few games last night in co-op and faced them every game there too. I don't get too bent out of shape about it wishing that people would stop breathing but it's annoying to the point where I just don't bother. If I was a better hitter Mayne I'd stick with it but overall it's just a bad online experience that I have seen

    So you are the reasons our reports get ignored, thanks a lot.

    If someone is going to constantly play toxic; I'll report them each time to do such.

    Besides; chances are SDS doesn't do a [censored] thing about it anyway.

    I reported someone last year for intentionally beaning my players because I wouldn't quit after they messaged me saying they were 11-0.

    I matched up with them about four to five other times throughout the year and they still sent the same message and said the same thing when I said no.

    So chances are they were doing it constantly. If they were reported each time they did that; they would've eventually been banned.

    But since they were still doing it in Oct/Nov; I'm pretty sure the report option game is just aesthetic.

    Oh I hate the toxicity as much as anyone. But reporting them is useless if they are doing nothing wrong. Its like calling the cops on kids playing in the street or neighbor's dogs barking too loud.

    So you're saying that bunt dancing, holding bunt until your pitcher releases the ball, spamming R2 EVERY batter, and quick pausing on and off (which I assume is them trying to get the game to freeze) is them doing nothing wrong?

    Not trying to start an argument; but just trying to understand what people seem as toxic play?

    Aside from the pausing thing to me none of those are worth reporting because what are they gonna do about it? Those other things are frustrating but can be ignored and will have no effect on gameplay. I'm not saying I don't get pissed too when people do it but at the end of the day the only part of those things that's helping them is us getting knocked off our game.

    No, I said that was completely toxic. But those are all things that are allowed to do in game. So they cannot do anything to stop it.

    Quick pitching is legal. There is no advantage on the pitchers side so quite frankly, get quicker. You honestly can’t expect to have every single person play true to real baseball, so you either play or don’t. Honestly no point crying about it besides wanting someone to par your [censored] and say “it’ll be ok”

    I'm not precious about W-L online. I'll just quit out if the opponent is toxic and hopefully have a better game next time.

    I have ocd and tourette and i quick pitch alot not intentiontionally though just out of habit and having zero patience sorry.. When my opponent is a little slow on the mound i try to speed them up flashing the bunt button in between pitches i never knew that could bother someone so much... Shoot i even get bored during fly balls and run circles on my way over to them half the time.. Now i havent played a game all night so it wasnt me but it could have been someone similar, and im sorry if i annoy anyone its deffinetly not intentional just a habbit

    If this was directed at me; can you show me in my original post where it said I was going to quit playing the game?
