Critical support for flypaper posting about that, then. Scratched liberals catching bans improves Hexbear.
I'm trying to remember the name of a multiplayer game that supposedly did their own flypaper test a few years back. Allegedly they had a right-wing dogwhistle as one of their preset report-abusive-user reasons. But instead of banning players that reason was used against, it was used to build up a database of players who frequently abused the report-user function and used that specific reason frequently - and they got the ban en masse. This is only half-remembered from some /r/technology post I read a few years back so it may not have happened at all. But if it really did, I'd love to know the name of the game.
League of legends (at least I think it was them) had a "report for being unskilled at the game" option that had no effect except for making the system start to ignore reports from whoever used it
I have no idea what game you're thinking of, but if you remember I'd love to know too because it's even funnier than this
