One of the first things that I learned during an ethics course is: "Ethics is not about majorities."
Saying "noob" would offend/harm 34% of the players, that is still too much.

Screenshots or replays plox. I have NEVER called ANYONE a turd (except sfire, that doesnt count tho) It might be other [TROLL]s but it wasnt me.

No1 has ever told me that he fell offended b/c I called him a ''nub''. Well, HisaoNakai did, but Im not sure if I have played against him at all.

Still the majority decided than ''noob'' isnt offensive, and its the majority who chose, not the minority. If u want minority to chose, mute every1 who has ever called me a failer, I find it offensive. It works the same way Flipstip . I am a minority who finds word ''failer'' offensive and thats it? Mute every1?

Also, what is the most relevant argument, none of the admins have ever said that calling any1 a noob is goign to be punishable. You jsut ninja changed the rules GoogleFrog and thats bad. Every1 knows taht ''retard'' is an offence, but not every1 finds ''noob'' an insult. This case should be put straight, and players should be warned before any other actions are taken against them.

I stand for free speech. There should be a command that makes you ignore a selected player, at least in the lobby, preferably both in the lobby and in the game. Nothing else should be done in terms of limiting one's ability to speak.

If you find something offensive, it is your problem. You oversensitive pussy, go cry in a corner.

Nice, i like that you have immediately established the hierarchy, the next step to the complete honesty is admitting that the bans are applied based on your personal subjective judgement, with rules being bent and ignored if needed.
Come on, there is nothing wrong with being authoritarian if you are honest about it and dont try to hide behind double standards.

quote: Doing something you could reasonable know to lower the enjoyability of the game will get you muted/banned.

I am not enjoying losing. Ban everyone who wins against me.

Also ban kyubey and sfireman whenever they rush singu or go trollcom. They know very well that their stupid shenanigans ruin the game for the rest of the team. it is in fact so unenjoyable that i quit teamgames altogether because of them.

quote: If someone has not broken the CoC they do not get banned.

Okay, but that's not enough. Is the opposite true? Is breaking the CoC always and imminently punishable? Because if its not, i can easily see privileged players appearing, who are conveniently ignored by the law enforcement.

quote: "You oversensitive pussy, go cry in a corner" Yeah that's right. That is what your neighbour will tell you when you will be ringing at his door at 5AM because he's running the music too loud.

The laugher of the day

I find that using the word "noob" directed angrily at players with lower performance,if not offensive would be at least a bit off-putting to potential players. it gives the appearance that people who just started to play, or play for no reward are not welcome.

As quite a recent newcommer, I must say that being called nub, nab, naab, noob, nooob, nooooooooob, turd, retard, failiure, fail hard was a little bit offputting in my first game with you guys. But once I realised that it wasnt directed just at me, but at ALL the new players, I didnt feel so bad. In fact I then put the razor blades back in the draw and remembered that there are some redeeming features about myself. I helped an old lady cross the road once, and in my mind I have delivered many babies in the back of taxis.
