Consequences of a False Report?

I was playing Trickster today and won a 4k with 3 moris. The survivors were acting weird the whole game.. two of them purposefully pre-throwing pallets, teabagging, and purposely throwing the game once I had everyone on death hook at three gens. I didn’t tunnel or camp or anything. In the endgame chat they said I was reported and when I asked why they didn’t respond. Should I be worried about it? The only reason I can imagine they would be mad was that I slugged for the 4k. Two survivors were already dead, I downed the tap and already knew where the Vittorio was so I went after him. Should I be worried of a potential ban?

    You are more than likely fine. For a report to be fully processed it has to be reported in-game and with VIDEO evidence on the forums. From your description, it's more than likely that nothing about your gameplay is incriminating. If anything, video evidence of the survivor’s gameplay is proof of griefing behavior.

    Most games end with somebody salty complaining or accusing somebody about something or other, welcome to DBD.

    As the others have mentioned, if you did nothing wrong, you have nothing to be concerned about.

    Bans are not issued without absolutely clear proof of wrongdoing; especially things like cheating or hacking, and why video evidence of these instances occurring in the match are required. While I understand its not the easiest thing to do for some, the video is vital, and when submitted to Player Support, the evidence is reviewed, and action taken. This also ensures people reported for cheating or hacking either accidentally (not realizing a perk or add-on would explain their actions, for example), or those reported out of spite or the like, will not be wrongly given consequences.
