Dead By Daylight False Accusations

edited October 2018 in General Discussions
I play Dead by Daylight on PS4 and got falsely accused of working together with a killer in a game. I had a Hillbilly unexpectedly choose to be nice to me out of nowhere and let me live when I was expecting him to hook me after he downed me and then I get a message from another survivor who had been killed and they told me they reported me for “working together with the killer” when that wasn’t even the case. Can’t people who make false accusations get in trouble? I don’t want to get banned for something I had no intention of.

    Honestly, I don't see why they would ban anyone for farming during this event. It should be expected big time with any game - but it does count as grieving depending on what happens.

    You won't get banned for it. We review reports on an individual basis and do not take action unless we have definitive proof. We all play the game often so we have a very good understanding of what is and isn't okay.

    If someone is making a bunch of false reports, yes, they can be banned. But you won't get banned just because they falsely reported you.

    I have a question for you @redsopine1? Is your PS4 name TheUselessGamer by any chance or are you their friend? Just because I let the hillbilly down me doesn’t mean I was working with him. I was going to give up because I didn’t think I was going to survive against him, and then he chose to let me live out of the random so how am I doing something wrong?! Even if I had been farming, that is not a big deal. Also there is a difference between working with a killer and farming with a killer.

    Way I see it you going yo the basement crouching then suddenly not being attacked looks alot like teaming up on one guy add in hiding in a locker doesn't do anything to prove your point of him being move of that was the case he wouldn't have gone for me

    Are u sure we were playing the same game together? My PS4 name is BlairFiebs2790. If u weren’t playing in a round with someone has that name, then u have me mixed up with someone else. I was playing in the Shelter Woods level as Quentin. What level were u playing in and who were u playing as?
