Emy Posted April 8, 2008 Report Posted April 8, 2008 So I have been on this server a little less than a month, and I've seen more racism, swearing, and rudeness in the broadcasting. Like today, there was blatant racism going on for 10 minutes. There was a GM asking them to stop and they didn't. I dunno what went on behind the scenes, but there will be more shit like this happening. In a recent report Zeitgeist said "As a personal observation, the server did not need to know that you were indeed going to report her. I advise you to refrain from doing that again and simply report next time; you could get accused of broadcast abuse." I just find it funny that saying the word "reporting" on the bc can get you in just as much trouble as saying "Fuck your N*gger mom you ho" LOL but in order for someone to get in trouble from a bc like that do I have to report it every time? Because if I have to your forums will be flooded. XD It just really disturbs me and my guild. What are your opinions?
LordAbsinth Posted April 8, 2008 Report Posted April 8, 2008 yesterday racist broadcastings hurts me a lot,,, .-. i can understand some "injury" into the PvP or during an MvP killing, but not that kind of things,,, solution? an extra string for GMs that speaking with the Broadcaster NPC can make it invisible (usable or not),,,when the ppl come back to normal can be just re-enabled,,,or a file with censored words (like for chat),,, it's a bad thing, cause into HR a broadcaster is a good thing for the mart and economy, but that racist things makes all really sad,,, LordAbsinth
Emy Posted April 8, 2008 Author Report Posted April 8, 2008 Or the first person to be a douche gets muted, and if his offense is bad enough jail time. I don't think it's done enough...so ppl think they can get away with it most times. If the gm's who were on simply muted them on the spot, and ppl found out they did this every time ppl wouldn't be assholes as much, then the rest of the server could play in peace. I got enough of these HW that think they can steal my mob, I don't need bullshit on the BC now too.
Icon Posted April 8, 2008 Report Posted April 8, 2008 yall are being too sensitive .. if u report it, the ''douches'' will learn their lesson or at least get the first warning so jailtime isnt so far away chat filters can be broke in 10 seconds i steal mobs /gg
Emy Posted April 9, 2008 Author Report Posted April 9, 2008 You may want to consider not ksing ppl it's not polite. And we're not being sensitive we're being sensible :P
Hrist Posted April 9, 2008 Report Posted April 9, 2008 Actually, these kinds of cases did not exist when I came here long ago. I think some people just had a major ego boost and think that they could go up against the GMs with that kind of attitude. I recommend that the GMs have a stronger punishment against those offenders because they don't realize that they were defying the GMs themselves. I suggest a 1-2 hour ban for the racist and offending comments over the broadcaster, or 1-2 hours jail time. And yes, Racism is a disgusting act, and so does being a foul-mouthed douche over the broadcaster. Seriously, those kind of people does not degrade others with their language, but they degrade their nation and themselves.
Sensation Posted April 9, 2008 Report Posted April 9, 2008 Harder actions will be taken to reduce these actions as much as possible. We can't be online always, so also please report these on forums too. Whenever someone from the GM team is available they will be punished as stated in the rules.
Emy Posted April 9, 2008 Author Report Posted April 9, 2008 But Wizardry the point is to report it every time, not just the times it bothers YOU. The world is a collective, you're not the only person in it, and neither am I. I can ignore the comments for a good while too, but I don't, and I shouldn't. I understand maybe you're desensitized, but do the right thing, even if it's not benefiting you directly. It may benefit you later on. And thank you for considering this post Sensation. One final point: in the times I've seen hard racism and insults there was a GM on 90% of the time. And as Hrist mentioned they are opposing and disrespecting the GM's themselves. These GM's don't deserve that, I haven't had any reason to mistrust them. They should protect themselves too. Peace
Arcane Posted April 9, 2008 Report Posted April 9, 2008 ^ Amen to what Emy said. Clearly, I try to ignore those people who say "FUCK YOU" to me and stuff like that because it's not worth reporting. I get those kinds of stuffs.(Somebody flooded my chatbox with none sense.) But I'll try to report as much as possible when it's really necessary.
