Are innocent players gonna get banned because of the new autoban?
I've had so many games where players said they were gonna report me because I didn't play the game the way they like it and thats giving me concern for this new ban system. This new autoban system seems pretty abusable. Just imagine if a fog whisperer got banned because some toxic ######### mass reported them. If the devs can't properly do a chat censoring system then this is gonna go horribly wrong.

Yes.
The answer is yes.

If it's literally just "After a certain amount of reports you'll be auto-banned" like they made it sound, then yes.
There's going to be floods of players getting banned for being victims of salt.

and then people are going to complain that q times are super long without comprehending they helped in banning a bunch of the players.

Im a Killer main and I expect my account will be falsely banned for actions such as: Hits through Vaults, Slugging and Sacrificing Survivors.
I assume I'll last maybe a week.

What’s worse is that you won’t be able to talk about your unjust ban on the forums without getting banned here too, therefore community pushback in this is gong to be a slow burn once/if it gets implemented.

Sounds 100% like what the DbD community will do and then when the false bans get over ruled. They will do it again!. And again!...And again!......And they will never learn from any of them.
I just feel so bad for spirit/Freddy mains and killers who happen to play "Flavor of the Month" killers like Wraith/Demo is currently as they'd be mass reported for just playing killers they like.

1:07:45 timestamp of the livestream if anyone missed it. The way it is explained frightens me and you even get a thank you from the devs.

If we don't have information by this I'm actually going to stop playing when this goes live because holy ######### that's terrifying

I certainly hope not. Honestly, this whole thing worries me.

I hope not, but it might be possible. People who main Spirit, Freddy, Twins and Hag are bound to get banned if this becomes a thing.

######### me hag and spirit are my mains

And I main Freddy and have done so for years. We are doomed.

Someone mind explaining to me what this autoban system is?

from how it sounded he made it sound that if you get reported enough you have a chance to get banned.

see you in the afterlife.

The worst thing about this is that the number of people reporting for unfun/annoying behavior is going to ######### skyrocket into the moon once people get the idea that they can actually punish people for playing in a way they don't like. Plenty of people will yell and -rep but don't report because they know it does nothing. Now...
Like, this is the worst thing they could have done if they wanted people to stop reporting for invalid reasons. Virtually the only thing that could prevent that would be banning players who send too many fallacious reports... and you'd still end up banning a lot of players that are genuinely stupid, not intentionally abusing the system.
I like the idea that an auto-ban system could quickly remove players that are amassing lots of reports and so must be doing something very wrong, like using scripts, blatantly lag switching (to where their build is built around it), abusing exploits (like the Deathslinger reel DC), or holding games hostage and really going out of their way to grief people. But players just report too often for mundane reasons. It can't work even if your criteria is reports divided by games played, not total reports, because that basement Bubba is going to get just as many reports as the lag switcher or the Breakdown abuser.

Yeah, we are going straight to Dead by Daylight's heaven. At least we get to see some long lost friends. I wonder how Old Ruin is doing...

Lmao that is a bad idea! Do the devs not realize how entitled the community is.
Ugh.., I chose the wrong time to get bank into the game
