#How to report someone on Infinite Flight for inappropriate behaviour as a Pilot
Quite a number of posts are people asking if someone could report this person when really it’s up to you to do it. I was quite surprised when I saw there was no tutorial on how to report someone because not a lot of people know how to.
Reasons To Report Someone:
There are a number of reasons to report people but remember not to report someone if they aren’t doing anything wrong. Below are reasons to report people.
Not Following ATC instruction’s
Cutting in line when waiting to take-off
Crashing into people mid-air and while on the ground
An Inapropriate Callsign
If I missed any other reasons please tell me.
How To report someone:
Step one:
Open the map page and click on the user you want to report.
Playground server controllers can report. Just click ‘Report user’ and a message saying controller rating is too low to report (or something similar). Click that message. You won’t get any confirmation that you have reported the user but it will go through as a report.
Maybe you could add this in to the main post, such as ‘How to report as a controller’ @Riley_Dunshea
Ghosting means you are hidden from all all other pilots and controllers but you can continue with your flight. You’re basically removed from the server. This is if you have had 3 reports off other pilots or an advanced server controller can ghost you.
Needs to be bumped and brought to the attention of new users.
Don’t forget to report users where necessary.
Six aircraft holding short, two on short final perfectly sequenced, ATC doing a great job, and a grade 1 clown (with over 400 violations to his name for only about 5 hours flight time!) taxied through everyone and took off without clearance.
Yes, I know it’s TS1. Yes I know I can go on expert. But the onus isn’t on me. This was downright rude, impatient and inconsiderate behaviour. There was no ‘mistake or learning’ involved, it was intentional behaviour. There were 8 aircraft present who could have easily provided the three necessary reports to ghost him, however it didn’t happen. I reported, and at best, only 1 out of the 7 others did, because he sure didn’t disappear off my map.
Use the REPORT function people, it’s there for a reason!
I’m not so sure that it requires 3 people to report someone. A few of the guys that I fly with were flying one night, and we attempted to report someone who was fooling around, landing on anywhere other than the runway. There were three of us, and he was still on the map and we could see him after we reported him. I’m not sure if it is an instant ghosting, or if there is a delay, but after 5 minutes or so, he was still messing around. Could the reporting system be bugged? Or did FDS up the required number of reports to ghost someone?
