    What can be done when players from the same guild are placed on both sides of a battle and they refuse to shoot at each other???

    You can report them with the in game feature for cheating - it’s essentially called win-trading.
    Everyone should play the game fair and fun - no matter if you are in the same guild or not.

    I love getting a guild mate on the opposing side, I go full try hard to sink them and then share the replay with the guild :)

    I won't go down easy to a guildmate. That'd be cowardice. Ill make them work for every point of damage they score lol! Otherwise it wouldn't be fun, now would it?

    Whats the point in reporting them? No action is taken anyway. Or is it only blatant cheating from big spenders in big name guilds you dont penalize?

    To Op: in theory you can report, but its a waste of time and there is no consequence. Soak it up and move on. The only efficient way to get devs into action is to post a gameplay video on the forum of them cheating, that actually worked last time I tried.

    Rovio do read all reports, but sometimes its hard to penalize as they have to be 100% sure the player was doing this on purpose, which isnt always obvious from a replay.

    Please cut the crap, just for 1 post pretty please.
    Blatant cheating goes by unpunished. I would not post a comment like the above based on doubtful cornercases. Spare me your automated 'devs do nothing wrong' responses please please please!

    Happy to post evidence if you doubt me ;)

    I simply explained why not all reports can be acted on right away, im not covering any conspiracy, or pulling the wool over anyone's eyes.
    I never said "devs do nothing wrong", and my responses are not automated, nearly everything you wrote was completely irrelevant!?

    Maybe you should have spent more time reading my post properly before climbing on top of that high horse and calling me out.

    That is in fact not true - I personally go through reports daily .

    I understand this is a matter of perception as with many things in gaming in general.
    I don't think we will find any game where all players feel "X is handled fairly in my personal sense of fairness".
    Reports are also never public or ever shared or followed up upon with reporters due to privacy reasons - and never will.

    In essence to close the issue and question here: Please report in game other players who are violating any of our chat or in game behavior rules so that we have a chance to moderate and deal with them as appropriate. :)

    And closing!
