Body blocking report

Can I report a player for body blocking and trapping me in a room if I don’t have video? I have a picture of them with crows above their head but no footage to prove they didn’t just lag out, which they didn’t they were pointing and crouching. Luckily I had Diversion so I could draw the killer to chase them away, which they did but then they kept following me and the killer wouldn’t kill them. Thankfully I got away but what the hell is wrong people?

Sadly you need a video for it.
Damn…I don’t record games I’m not a streamer. I’m living in dread now of both the killer and fellow survivors. I wish the forum didn’t have that “no sharing player names” rule sometimes.
Well, let me put that rule into perspective. I open a thread claiming that someone with your name was hacking or whatever. I have no proof of anything. A witch hunt starts. You're completely innocent, but nobody believes you because any guilty person would claim they were innocent.
That's why "mob rule" and "mob justice" are no longer a thing.
or photo evidence
What platform are you? On Xbox, you can capture a fair portion of recent play after the event has occured, so you don't need to record constantly. Not sure if that's the same on other platforms, but it makes sense for them to have it.
But yeah, without video evidence it's not going to stand. A photo of a guy with crows around him in a doorway could just as easily been someone who had been afk and just started to move. A photo doesn't show any real context, unfortunately.
I get it. Just some times there’s that one person who really does deserve some kind or repercussions. It’s for the best that that rule exists though.
Appropriate repercussions come from reporting that person (although other people will claim otherwise; I find it curious that some people are always saying never to report others who should be banned, which just lets them keep doing those things, but I digress). "Mob rule" means that for tiny offenses (which cheating in a video game absolutely is) you could get doxxed or even killed.
No, screenshots are not enough.

For issues like this, you need video evidence, screenshots are not enough.
You don't need to record every match all the time, if you are on PC you can use Nvidia's replay system for example.
