How do I report a player in Sideswipe?

If you would like to report a player, you can do so with one of the following options:

While in a Match: 

1. Open the Settings menu
2. Select Report/Block Player
3. Select the player’s username 
4. Select Report
5. Select one or more of the reporting reasons

After a Match: 

1. Go to the main menu
2. Open your friends list
3. Select the Recent Players tab
4. Find the player
5. Select their username
6. Select Report Player
7. Select one or more of the reporting reasons

Reporting reasons

• Text harassment: Offensive language in text chat
• Match throwing or griefing: Scoring own goals, intentionally disturbing teammate's movements, smurfing, etc.
• Intentionally idle: Not moving or only moving slighly during a match
• Inappropriate player name: The player's name is upsetting or offensive

You can select more than one reason. For example, if a teammate is harassing you in team chat, and is also own-goaling, you can select both Text Harassment and Match Throwing or Griefing.

Psyonix has a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to harassment of any kind. We will act on violations of the Code of Conduct (Opens in a new tab). This can include permanent game bans in the most extreme cases. When a chat or game ban is placed on an account, each additional violation will increase the length of the ban.
