WoW chat police is turnin the game asocial

Yeah, yeah, the ones who repeatedly get chat banned never did anything wrong. Yet the vast majority of the players don’t even know that you can get chat banned, including players who’ve been playing for 20 years.

Just reflect, and don’t be a douche.

We have a saying: “A donkey does not bump into the same stone twice”. I think you can deduct the real meaning behind it yourself.

Get into an alterac valley, say “fck” in the chat, let 30 people report you and boom. 14 days. Enjoy.

You are clueless of how the system works. Or when people whisper you to be toxic and then you tell em to “shut up” and /ignore then they get mad and report you it also adds up.

Don’t use curse words? How hard is it.

Yeah right, just “shut up” right. Not cussing the life out of them.

Reflect my man. You’ll have to be able to eventually, better start learning now.

We’re adults I mean, it’s the way Language exists for a thousand years. It’s not an insult 90% of the time. This isnt a pegi 12 game…

No its not, because if you’re gonna whisper me to be toxic or gonna be a toxic smartass in chat im telling you to Shut up and play the game. Which was it, I dont even care anymore. I see some toxic rant coming to ruin my solo shuffle im telling them to shut up and play and try to win. I swear that guy who made a post “make wow metal again” gives every meaning to what this game used to be and what it is now. A bunch of softies with self esteem and daddy issues.

Read the In-Game Code of Conduct:

You may not use language that could be offensive or vulgar to others.

Vulgar…mhm…what could possibly be seen as vulgar? … Do you have an idea?

And then you wonder why we don’t take your word for it, that you didn’t say anything offensive back.

If you just told them to shut up and play the game, good, and not actionable. If it was more…well, read the first note from this comment.

It’s offensive because its true. Im offended by many things people say and do in this game but I stay quiet and take it. But the first time I reply to someone being toxic to me is not grounds for a 14 day ban. I laugh every time i get the chat logs. It’s insane how people have lost touch in this modern day. No touching grass what so ever

Right, it’s not like it starts with a day and doubles with multiple offenses. So you’re on your 5th penalty. You better start being careful, account suspension is part of the game too.

I never had a day. It was 14 days now third time this year.

You cant convince a “oh its not my problem therefore I dont care because it didnt happen to me” type of people.
I wouldnt spend so much time defending something if im in the wrong but these people cannot comprehend that trully you can be suspended for saying “shut up” and get punished for minor breaches like that to the point where if you dont stop using the chat all together aside for the purpose of beautiful poetry you can eventually get yourself perma banned.
And you’re like “ok, where does the company win if they ban their playerbase like this”
Well its no secret that WoW is pixel heroine.
Its no secret that WoW players would literally PAY to keep their collectables for years…
So Blizzard allows you to keep your stuff if you cough up 60 bucks for a new expansion and another 13 for a sub via the option of having a second account inside of your banned account in the form of WoW2 (3,4,5,6,… etc).
So they literally turned the filter on to sensitive to cash out on your unpoetic bum.

Then why does it not happen to them? Why is it always the same people walking into this wall? Why oh why is it someone who walks around with a “others are softies with self esteem and daddy issues”-mindset?

Yeah, of course, because it’s always the others’ fault.

Buddy idk how many times this needs saying- words, especially mild language breaches shouldnt result in harsh penalties.
At very least penalties that are related only to mild language breaches should NEVER result in perma bans either.
At very least if you go on a year without any breaches the excelerated penalty time should reset to mild punishment.
If you disagree with this - then you’re really nothing more than a corporate simp and im just wasting my time with you.

Using words can literally get you imprisoned. Different ballpark, but that’s just to emphasise how idiotic it is to state that words shouldn’t lead to harsh penalties. Yes, wrong words def. should.

And there we go, the personal attack…I didn’t expect anything different.

I can bet you that telling a person of the same status as mine to “shut up” or “go to hell” will not get me arrested.

Dude i just see radical idiotism if anything else.

You can thank me for the wake-up call.
Your takes are insane, radical and nonsensical at best.

That’s not what I said. Read again.

Nothing radical about pointing to facts.

Alright, well, I’m not the one with chat-ban issues :kissing_heart:

Its exactly what you’re saying. Read your shill-post yourself.

Facts are not strawpicked and can work both ways.
Your argument works onesidedly and is strawpicked / hyperfixated.
Hense why you always say “its not what i mean i mean something very specific” when we’re not talking about your specific hyperfixation.
Google logical fallacies today- save your shame tomorrow.

I just hope nobody ever gives you any position of power ever.
You’re childish, sloppy with your understandings and you’re simply a dangerous ignorant person.
If you still dont understand what im implying- its that you have fascist beliefs.

In a chromosome deficient country like the USA right now yeah, you can. Anywhere else in the world not so much

People in EU arent like that and players from EU shouldnt have to suffer from broken usa ideologies. I interact with EU people not US ppl. And EU people swear irl on a daily basis more than half of their day because its the way our languages work. If i say FCK in a bg ir arena i shouldnt deserve that ban.

If we are talking about offensive sure. This offends me. This ban frustrates me more than anything i wrote probably frustrated another person. My free speech is endangered because i never know “what i might say” and result in a perma ban. Awesome idea trully. Making an MMORPG a SP game just with the aspect of playing alongside other players other than NPCS. I’ll be damned if i write another word positive or negative. I’ll need a longer ignore list

Then you’re unaware of what words can be used for. Just think about it, without falling back to using words you shouldn’t use.

Your ideology and beliefs is whats wrong with society today and why wow had become so soft apart from a bloody metal game that it used to be and that everyone enjoyed. Bullying should really be back irl

These are not my ideologies. I’m not talking about misgendering someone…you can literally commit crimes by just using words. Ah well, too far side-tracked…

Saying the f-word in a bg, yeah, well, I wouldn’t report it. Is it against the Code of Conduct? In theory it is or it could be seen as such. Can you thus be actioned? Yes.

You can kick at everyone and everything about this, or you can just not use those words. Clearly one of the two doesn’t seem to work well for you. But the choice is yours to make.

Free speech. There is no word that can be said that would or should be treated as a crime. ESPECIALLY ON A SCREEN. Because you can choose not to interact with it and press ignore. You just choose to be offended over than not give a damn.
