Hi! This is open for anyone to answer: is targeting in MW bannable?
By targeting I mean someone joins every match that you’re in and goes straight to your mob even when there are other teams present, if that makes sense.
Here’s a recap of my lovely experience today:
I was spectating my friends, and I saw a player (let’s call them Ryan, sorry to any Ryans out there) attack and kill their mob. I played with them in the next run, and Ryan also joined. In this game, Ryan came straight for our mob and killed it. Ryan even camped right in front of our island (we were in the UNO Stacko map) to kind of taunt us in a “haha! I have you guys here now and you’re not going anywhere” kind of way. 3 teams were still alive (including Ryan’s), and 2 mobs were still alive (also including Ryan’s).
I honestly don’t know whether this Ryan (idk id I wanna give out Ryan’s actual IGN) has targeted other players, or if they have been following my friends since before I logged on to play today. I know you can simply leave the match, but there *are* people who will follow you to a new game.
I also know targeting is bannable in other games, but does it also apply to MW? This is pretty much the main reason why I have this question in the first place.
Thank you so much in advance!
