Whenever this map touches me I never move and I prefer that they leave. To go to another match

    Intentional AFK'ing is reportable and bannable, but when someone reports in-game then most likely nothing happens. It depends how often you get Haddonfield and how often you intentionally afk.

    Tbh you should just try to play anyway and if everyone escapes then don't feel bad because it was likely because of the map. That's certainly better than going AFK and assuming that you'd lose anyway. Really not a good mindset to have, and overall bad sport behaviour.

    Just play the game and do your best.

    If you're already resigning to a loss, wouldn't you rather just get some points anyway?

    AFKing is reportable, so I would recommend just playing terribly if you are that adamant about it.

    Yes! According to my local stone collector, it's illegal to avoid playing on specifically Haddonfield. I'm going to talk to the president of the Eiffel Tower, to give you a permanent B A N from your closest fish gym.

    Okay but jokes aside. I think you can?

    I’ve definitely had some bad losses on this map but I have won far more than I expected with this maps reputation. The middle roads of the map is a couple of pallets short of a dead zone.

    It needs a rework (no doubt) but I try regardless. Would encourage anyone reading this to as well.

    Being able to fly and throw hatchets as ghostface is also frowned upon, technically reportable even, but reporting relies on a bizarre system where you need to report in multiple places, fill in everyone's steam IDs even if the players aren't on steam and upload video evidence where the video usually fails to upload. So a survivor would have to be extremely annoyed you didn't play and also have several hours of time to spare.

    Personally I'd play it but I wish they'd just rework this stupid map already. Or at the least remove map offerings.

    It's a bad map that need a rework for sure, but I don't think giving up everytime is the way to go.

    You can but you won’t.

    There’s an insufferable amount of hackers ruining the game right now but BHVR hasn’t done anything about it. You think they care to ban one player who AFK’s on a specific map?

    Several hours? Wouldn't you just record the clip and send it to Behavior? You could do that while in the game that you are annoyed at. Lol.

    You AFK instead of DCing? Surely waiting for the game to end would be longer than the 5 min DC penalty?

    If they bring it as an offering and you feel like it's a SWF team from the lobby earlier, just DC in the loading screen.
