How does it feel to know that there are people right now who feel like they're entitled to use hate speech on someone else's servers? Me personally, I can't wait for the report toxic players button. I know some people are going to use it all the time but I'm sure there will be a threshold that most people don't fall into that get shadowbanned. Later, dicks!
It comes from oldfags who still think the internet and real life are separate spaces
Nathaniel Allen
So glad idiots are getting banned left and right for the language they call other people online. It only makes gaming communities worse and worse. Fucking degenerates. Neanderthals
Brayden Edwards
>there are people fighting for their chances to keep being assholes in video games honestly this is what made me stop caring about "censorship" some people cry about
There was some idiot asking me for studies that it was harmful last night.
Isn't it obvious dude?
Even if I provide quantifiable data you know it's never going to be enough, the goal post just kept moving so I went to bed.
Seriously. Like, I'm against punching nazis- I think it's immature to react to free speech with assaults, but TV networks don't have to provide them with an outlet to scree hate speech towards people. I have no idea how these people got so entitled.
people think that "a right" equals a good idea. these people were probably told to shut the fuck up all the time as kids and never learned to communicate like humans.

Man, Sup Forums sure is infested by tumblurinas and the like.
Logan Martinez
So this is the new debate that's sweeping Sup Forums eh? It's painful knowing the right thing to do but having no meaningful way to voice it without it being cast in with all the dweebs. >If it is a social offense do NOT ban from using the product they've purchased. I can assure you this will not be a legal right one day. >if toxic behavior is constant, then disable their ability to use the voice/text chat and create a quick chat menu like in every source game with anti spam methods in place
That fucking easy. The money used to buy the game is responsible for server upkeep and they should have a right to use the server. It's absolutely ridiculous that companies can make up these sorts of things because digital legality is still in an infant state

>can't tell if resetera is down or if it's just bait again
if someone says gg when it is really bg is it rape?
Luke Brown
No way, just shadowban them to servers where everyone is like them. A server for assholes. Let them scree at each other. It's perfect my dude, forcing them to witness how they behave forever. If we keep them on normal servers they'll find new ways to be annoying, like feeding, destroying items, team killing, etc.
tumblurinas? Because we don't want to get berated in game by a 14 year old every other game? How the fuck does that make sense my dude?
That makes more sense to me as well, but I think most developers would see it being unethical to support a haven of toxic players.
Zachary Anderson
>There are people who think anything they dislike is "toxic" and should be banned >Get furious whenever you say anything remotely controversial >Some of the go so far as to call banter "fascism" As I said in the last thread, the same people this generation getting ass mass about the lack of "political correctness" in pele are the second person who try to ban Huckleberry Finn for having the word "nigger" in it. Just a bunch of over sensitive crybabies who have lived such sheltered lives that anything outside of their immediate bubble is considered evil.
>responding to racism by being racist I don't understand why people do this.
Carter Perry
You know, the only point to demonizing someone you don't know is so you can rationalize not listening to good points. I came to Sup Forums in 2006, I'm pro-white ethnostate and anti-fat activism. I'm the opposite of most "SJW Tumblr" types, I just don't support your ability to scree at people loudly and over the top in public because it shows immaturity and a lack of self-restraint. You have to be a special kind of 12 year old to think that everyone who wants to get along is a "SJW"
>Because we don't want to get berated in game by a 14 year old every other game No you're a tumblrina for being insecure about being berated. If it's a 14 year old kid then show him his place you absolute faggot.
Oops, just said a no no word hope I don't get banned
Cooper Ramirez
Games already do this, but apparently it's not enough Can we just cut the middleman and remove all communication from online games? That's clearly all you people want Or can we finally admit that most toxic behavior stems from someone not carrying their fucking weight and making things unpleasant for everyone else?
>some soyboy capped these as if any of us give a shit
Robert Roberts
>I'm a pro white ethnostate guy >Ethnostate >Getting along with other people I hope you realize that what you're essentially advocating for is less genocidal version of lebensraum? Because being pro "white" (I'm just going to assume you're American or live in a former european colony) means by default can't be pro everyone else as well.
There is a difference between banter and bad manners, and a lot of people who keep complain about "hate speech" or "toxicity" as well don't understand that.
Connor Hughes
the problem is that you can't even tell someone he sucks because people are getting softer by the day and moves like this only accelerate it
Titanfall 2 doesn't even show death count on the stats screen because it might hurt someone's feelings if his teammates told him to stop feeding the other team kills
Nathaniel Martin
>This kind of shit actually bothers people so much they cry for people to get permabanned
Hahahahahahahaha How The Fuck Is Cyber Bullying Real Hahahaha Nigga Just Walk Away From The Screen Like Nigga Close Your Eyes Haha
Yeah that is crass banter. Who cares? How sensitive do you have to be where seeing this gives you an anxiety attack?
Gavin Smith
You were probably the kid who tried to fight and spit on other kids who called your favorite pokemon gay.
Aaron Gomez
If it's actually funny or playful it's banter. It's not banter what these pieces of shit do in games. It's not fun and it's not cute, they ruin the game with their attention whoring.
Show him his place? Do you actually think anything is going to be resolved by me arguing with a literal child on the internet?
Yeah, toxic players are usually doing poorly and want to offload the blame to someone else. Most games it's been bad players but sometimes good ones do it too.
If you were at a party and were abusive like I see in games every day, you would get your shit kicked in. No one would put up with it and you wouldn't be invited back. People just do it on the internet because they're anonymous and it makes them feel tough. I don't want to play with you if you act like a dick and I don't care if it makes you mad. Channel your anger somewhere else. Try the gym.

Daniel Robinson
They don't actually believe all the retarded shit they swear by. It's just another symptom of the modern sickness killing western society where people are bored and frustrated by lack of upward mobility and lack of sex, but the modern world provides so much comfort in the form of accessible food, shelter, and entertainment that those people can never be incensed into riots and revolution, so they express their frustration by shitposting on the internet, which takes the form of pretty much whatever is the most hateful and stupid thing they can think to say, without having to worry about how subhuman it makes them look because it's effectively anonymous. It's not real, it's just a way to pass times until they hang themselves.
Jacob Perry
It probably will. Blizzard won't ban all of it's community, that's just bad management. probably going to be limited to like 10% of players.
It doesn't hurt my feelings dude! I could give a single solitary fuck about what they say. What I care about is them throwing the game because no one's paying enough attention to them! Get it through your dumb fucking brain.
> getting softer
You know, actual adults get along pretty well in most business environments and get shit done. If you were in the military you'd have a little banter but no one would be abusive to their teammates. There's no situation where being a dick improves it, I'm afraid.
Naah, the devs are just making those people less able to "express" their garbage.
>banter
This person is flooding with angry shit. This is not how banter looks.
Real talk. Banning for saying "nigger" and "faggot" has always happened. That's not new. People are banning for much more than that, m8s. If it was just about racist and homophobic speehc, they wouldn't need the buzzword "toxic".
They would just say "we're banning racist and homophobic speech" not "we're banning toxic behavior" Lets stop with the lie that "toxic behavior" is just "nigger nigger nigger faggot". You know that's not the case. So why pretend it is?
why do soyboys totally ignore the mute button? are you annoyed by this person? mute them! they're no longer audible! if they're legitimately impacting gameplay by throwing or team-killing, then you're 100% justified in reporting them. did he simply call you a faggot? oh well! you big fucking pussy, I wish you people had never found the internet.
how did any of those people think they;d be able to get away with saying this shit
Kevin Smith
>Just stop playing the game Or you could smash that muffugan muyr button or something but nah that's to much effort, capping different comments and reporting them to admins for "toxic" behavior is way better
Ryan Mitchell
Very rude person here, people don't 'kick your shit in' they just think you're a weirdo and avoid you like the plague. In real life people are actually find extreme rudeness/taclessness creepy and unnerving.
Have you ever actually had an anecdotal experience of someone being rude or an asshole irl and getting physically beaten by a group or individual? If so please share.
Adam Peterson
A case in point.
Evan Morgan
>This person is flooding with angry shit. This is not how banter looks. >He thinks those posts are serious Umm... No. These are not political rants where someone is going into a server to try and berate his enemies. They're troll posts , holy shit

Button. Some people will be fine with it, like it, or not like. It's called "tolerance" , and not everybody thinks like you kiddo. Not everyone is overly sensitive and is trying to instigate """"'''social change"""""" everywhere they go like the soapbox faggot you are
Jonathan Ortiz
>I make poost about politic on bidogame board yaaaaaay!
> just stop doing those things that you like because everyone's an asshole.
That's why dev communities work so hard to fix this behavior because it drives players out and makes them not enjoy the game. That's why companies think this is important and it's why you're going to get shadowbanned for being a faggot.
I saw a guy get beat up at a party because he insulted the hosts girlfriend. One of my friends had an older cousin that got out of prison and was called a nigger, he beat the shit out of the guy. I have seen people start literal fights over board games.
Oh yeah, I mute AND report. I don't want this person to play on my server. I don't want to run into them again. I like using my mic and doing communications, it makes the game better. If someone's abusive on mic I never want to see them again.
Correct, I think that it has something to do with how hard it is to exactly classify toxic behavior. You can be not swearing at all and still be abusive.
if you play multiplayer video games you are hopefully a nigger or you are the worst white
Samuel Howard
What's with all the children getting banned and coming to Sup Forums to bitch lately?
Angel Hernandez

People and their sense of pride / arrogance about themselves is astounding sometimes.
Matthew Smith
Stop and think: Does this make the person feel uncomfortable? If the answer is yes, then IT IS TOXIC BEHAVIOR.
Instead of thinking about your freedom to say stuff, how about you think about the other person's freedom to not hear your voice?
James Jackson
>it's only about banning the word nigger >it's all about nigger projecting something with all that strawman?

Jack Wilson
At least they'll be able to play with each other :3
Toxic behavior is needlessly being rude. It's like pornography "I'll know it when I see it." If you consistently make people uncomfortable, the problem isn't with society, it's with you.
has this ever happened to you?
>kiddo
confirmed for being tough as shit and like 35 years old with a house and shit.
Toxic behaviour is any abuse directed at other people. If you have nothing nice to say, why not shut the fuck up?
Jeremiah Lewis
That's only because the bans were paraded and used as a public example. Now its secret government shit.

They spent so much time in the toilet of the internet that they think that racism and harassing other people is socially accepted.
You first. I'm sure once you can't say mean words on the internet you'll turn them against yourself.
Colton Edwards
Just because you're incapable of talking to people normally and it makes your life hell doesn't mean everybody should magically be happy to be insulted in any and all contexts. There is such a thing as being overly sensitive, obviously, and that's its own problem, but you're just being retarded, and naive, presumably on purpose but god help you if not.
