            @Negilahn @ben_heathstone Inappropriate Chat > Harassment

        @Celestalon So “intentional losing” clarification question. Assume I have a “Play 3 games with X Class” Quest. I cue a game and then make breakfast; cue and then do the dishes; c and brush my teeth. This is punishable? Hypothetically of course! 😎

          @ben_heathstone Knew there'd probably be questions about that one... Just because something is reportable doesn't mean it's punishable. These categories are designed to match up with what reporters want to report. It doesn't change our policies on what we take action on.

            @ben_heathstone That last one could be relevant in the case of, for example, wintrading, or perhaps some hypothetical MMR bug exploitation. But no, we're not gunna ban you for playing Yes Paladin. ;)

              @Celestalon @ben_heathstone Will you ban ME for it?

                @MyntyPhresh @ben_heathstone Only if you win.

        @Celestalon @ben_heathstone I sometimes run some quest in Wild ladder. Please adjust it so that it does not become a target for Intentionally Losing. I also see many opponents like me.

          @ahirunHS @Celestalon @ben_heathstone Same for the achivement, sometime you need to play bad deck to race the achivements !

        @Celestalon @ben_heathstone I feel this ◦ Intentionally Losing / Deranking isn't cheating

        @Celestalon @ben_heathstone The only thing I care about is punishing people that add you after a game and tell you to kill yourself / bad things. I reported that multiple time when that happens to me but never blizzard came back to me afterwards. That’s sad to be left alone after that..

          @Don_Louboutin @ben_heathstone Those reports are investigated for sure, and we take action. This feature will make it easier to report those horrible people, by putting the report system right in the game.

            @Don_Louboutin @ben_heathstone We won't be able to give you feedback about your report at initial launch, but are working on that for the future. "Someone you recently reported was actioned, thank you for helping make the community a little cleaner." sort of message.

        @Celestalon @ben_heathstone What is the purpose of reporting "intentional losing"? I do that a lot, I don't want to be punished for conceding in casual because I don't want to play against a class or something like that
