Re: Why is there a report smurfs option, but nothing to enforce it?
Respawn are sneaky. I dont think they explicitly said that smurfing is bannable even if they added a report option for it. Same goes for the very subjective term "sabotage".... Actually, in the TOS of Apex, only four main categories of bannable offenses are listed: cheating, making false claims to EA representatives, hack accounts and lastly trolling by "hate speech and offensive behavior. I mean just think about it; they purposly set the min required level for ranked to 10 even though an "actual" level 10 player, i.e first time level 10, have no business in ranked what so ever. They even have a built in smurfing feature i.e soft resets. How could they make smurfing illegal when the game design itself invites people to smurf in ranked?
The report option is most likely there to protect smurfs from getting too many false reports of cheating. Now, people will report obvious smurfs for smurfing, reports that leads straight to the trash bin =)
