Every now and then, PlayStation players fail to adhere to Sony's Code of Conduct.
If you notice such a case, you can act.
Sony has clearly set out its rules of conduct for PlayStation * players in a code.
Nevertheless, gamers with racist or otherwise discriminatory names or behavior slip through time and again.
If you notice such a gamer, you have two options: block or report.
What's the difference and how should players behave?
We have the answers.
Report or block PlayStation players?
If you
want to
block
another player
, you can do so at any time. But then
communication is no
longer possible
on
both sides
. Blocking makes sense especially if another PlayStation player is constantly sending messages that will eventually become annoying. However, if this player becomes
intrusive or even abusive
, it might make sense to report the person. The same applies if the player's name or what he said in the chat becomes
racist or otherwise discriminatory
towards other players
. A
gamer is reported
, the moderators switch to the game.
In the meantime there are also games that check the names for disadvantageous content and put them on a blacklist.
However, it is not known to what extent Sony can look into this list.

PlayStation: How to Report Players
A player who appears to be violating the Code of Conduct should definitely be reported.
However, it must then be clear that this process can take a while.
This can be explained by the fact that the reported player is not checked by a system, but by people.
In order to report a behavioral problem
, it is important to know their player name.
It must also be possible to see the person's profile.
If something appears on the profile (the name or the picture) that speaks against the code of conduct, the further procedure is as follows:
Once the player's profile has been opened,
press
the
Options button
.
Now
report is
pressed.
An information window opens with the most important explanations for this step.
Then some questions from the Sony moderators need to be answered.
These include statements about the extent to which the code of conduct has been violated.
If all questions have been answered, this is
confirmed by clicking
the
Next
button.
Finally
press
send
.
This procedure can also be used for messages, community chats or other events on the PlayStation.
It is always important
to press
the
Options button
.
