Step-by-step guide to finding a match, opening the players tab, and submitting a report through the BAR server. Includes troubleshooting for the known search field bug and an explanation of the contributor chevron.
The fastest route is inside the game client itself. Click the username of the player you want to report, then choose Report user from the context menu. That sends a report tied to the match and the account.
Sometimes you need to report someone after the match ended. The BAR battle server at server4.beyondallreason.info/battle keeps a full match history.
The website method also lets you attach a replay link and extra context the in-game form might not capture.
If you are looking up a player on the relationships page at server4.beyondallreason.info/account/relationship/search, do not press Enter in the search box. The field is bugged and will break the request. Just click away or hit the search icon instead — the query still runs fine that way.
Before anything else, a common lobby issue shows the wrong team layout: 4 players on one side and 6 AI opponents instead of real humans. Change the preset to Co-op and back. That resets the lobby state and usually clears the problem immediately.
Players sometimes ask how to earn the contributor badge next to their name. It is not bought with money. The contributor chevron goes to people who have made actualised contributions to game development — code, art, maps, documentation, or other direct work on BAR itself. Donators get a separate badge. Contributing is the only way to earn the chevron.
Good teams handle bad players without drama. A clean report with a replay link and a short description is worth more than a wall of angry text in chat after a match. The moderation team tracks and correlates reports, so accurate reporting matters.
[Crd] Gaming actually fulfills a human purpose here — cooperation, mutual upbuilding, fun and striving for greatness together. Instead of random anonymity, you meet, learn from, and enjoy real people.
Creed of Champions runs on the same principle: low-drama team play, clear expectations, and respectful communication. If you want to play with people who handle conflict like adults instead of making the chat a warzone, that is a community worth checking out.
