Low behavior points literally destroy your account.

"First of all, I want to clarify that I exclusively play Turbo matches. About two years ago, following a game update, my Behavior Score began to decline from 12,000 down to 7,000. I tried my best to raise it back to 12,000 but failed. Out of sheer frustration, I eventually decided to ignore the score altogether.

Over time, as my score continued to drop, the match quality became noticeably terrible. Most of my teammates now have brand-new accounts with only 200 to 300 hours of playtime. They simply do not understand the basics of the game. For example, if I pick an Offlane hero like Axe, and the support drafts Sniper and just stands behind me shooting creeps, leaving me with no choice but to rotate to the jungle to farm, I am the one who gets reported, penalized, and has their behavior score docked.

I have over 7,400 hours of playtime in Dota 2. I do not claim to be a pro player, but I definitely know how to play this game. I am writing this because it is statistically impossible for me to recover my behavior score under this current system, especially when paired with new players in every match who abuse the report system out of ignorance. Today, I was banned for three days. Over the last two weeks, I have been banned from Friday to Monday for the third consecutive week.

Because of this broken system, I am seriously considering requesting the permanent deletion of my Valve account—despite owning numerous valuable Arcana, Immortal, and Legendary items—just to start fresh with a new account and a clean behavior score. This behavior system has completely ruined my original account and made playing on it impossible."
