yeah people say some genuinely horrible shit online and especially to kids. and we gotta protect the kids, man... "well maybe that 11 year old should grow some thick skin" yeah or like maybe we shouldn't let angry 34 year old men scream into team chat that they're going to murder or rape your family. this is not a freeze peach issue. game companies can (and now are) actively monitoring voice chats. you can't say that shit to someone in real life and you shouldn't be allowed to make threats like that just because you're anonymous and online.
Same thing. They knew it was a female gamer
He said that he and his buddies didn't even know if the opponent was a male or female.
... Of course woke Trudeau groped a female reporter years ago and he never lost his job nor after he did blackface. Leftist hypoicracy and double standards for another time, perhaps?...
I admit I don't follow Canadian politics, so for me to evaluate the hypocrisy of Trudeau's treatment, I wonder if you could provide, say, three or four examples of right-wing Canadian pols who lost their jobs after incidents similar to groping a female reporter years ago or wearing blackface.
literally the last thing i want is riot monitering voicechat. and again, the opponents team arent in it. hell, your team isnt in it unless youre friends/partied with them. ...besides, better that than me losing my honor level for muttering "wow this yasuo blows" to a teammate into my microphone.
ok why am i getting banned or put in a toxic q or literally anything for simply talking shit in a videogame?
and sure if somebodys just shouting the n word or whatever that should obviously be punishable, but the mute button also exists and if game companies are gonna be actively moderating vcs i need a full list of exactly what is and isnt a slur. would hate to be reported to the southern poverty law center or whatever for calling someone a retard or some shit
Spocksbrainrocks: You ********** ****** why did you steal my ****** tank? You must come from *********! I hope you ******* and *******!
the blackface thing wasnt when he was in office either, it was the usual college party pic from years ago sort of deal. he did do this hilarious video directly apologizing to 2 black twins who looked distinctly uncomfortable which was hilarious. (although apparently he has worn black/brownface several times...)
?
OP said this happened over voice chat and insults had been traded. How exactly did they not know she was female if that was the case?
seems very doable
it isnt, if anything its even less doable when i know they can hear me, thats sort of the point of an insult lmao
you dont really have my sympathy with "i want to insult griefers in videogames with no repercussions".
fun shit talking/banter is cool and fun, but insulting strangers (even if they might "deserve it") is not.
anyways, i dont want your sympathy, i want my god-given right to go off on other players. if someones mouthing off to the point you could take them to court over it
i notice you suddenly made this about griefers when no one has mentioned it. your example was you saying "wow this yasuo blows" with no indication that the hypothetical person was intentionally doing anything wrong.
a random yasuo player is closer to "strangers on the internet" than "griefers".
sounds like you just wanna be toxic
dude guess what you can report griefers too and i think they should also be punished
and i thought we kind of moved on from the "i'm gonna sue you for calling me bad" conversation. there aren't that many things you can do in voice chat that would warrant a lawsuit or even a perma-ban (but there are a few)
You can still insult other players.
no i cant. try following the actual thread of the conversation... or did you somehow manage to completely miss the entire "got banned for saying yasuo blows" bit me and glooby have been quibbling over for the past couple posts? also, in case it isnt obvious by now, nobodys talking about the specific example of ops friend anymore. please keep your cute little epic putdown moments vs the strawmen in your head in your head, no need to clutter up the forum with them.
besides, better that than me losing my honor level for muttering "wow this yasuo blows" to a teammate into my microphone.
