Report System FAQ

Q: I made a report, why hasn't it been dealt with yet?

A: At times our queue can get pretty big which will delay response time. But don't worry because every report will get dealt with, no report goes unchecked.

Q. If my report is declined, will my rating/amount I'm able to reportbe reduced?

A. Not necessarily. What an admin rates your report depends on the quality of the report, not the result of the report. There are various reasons as to why a report might be rejected but positive rep still given, such as the person you reported already being banned.

Q. A warning shows that the ID is low.Does that mean my report is incorrect?

No. This means that you should double check that you aren't inputting the InGame ID, instead of the TruckersMP ID.

Q.A warning shows that I am reporting a staff member. Does that mean my report is incorrect?

Yes. The system doesn't allow staff members to be reported. If you find a staff member did something wrong or questionable, please contact the feedback systemwith evidence.

Q. Why can I only make 10 reports?

A. Admins are being asked to rate the quality of reports. This is being used to help get rid of the majority of useless reports that currently come through the system. The more good reports you submit, the more you will be able to report in the future. The more bad reports you submit, the less you will be able to report, to the point where you are no longer able to.

Q. I've reached my limit on the report system, what must I do?

A. You must wait for some of your reports to be dealt with. Once some of your reports have gained positive points from an admin, you will have a higher report limit.

Q. I've been banned from using the report system, What do I do now?

A. Please find out here how to contact Upper staff here

Q. My report has now been dealt with. Can I remove the evidence from my social media accounts?

A. No. The evidence must be available for the length of ban PLUS 1 month. This is to make sure the banned user can properly appeal their ban. Please note that removing evidence early could result in your report rights being removed.
