"F- word" issues

Jump back to quoted post10 Jun 2016, 14:31 PMalfik

It's only a nuisance for the rest of us. I often find myself discussing strategy with my teammates in the heat of battle and I happen to weave in a swear word here and there. Then I realize that with all the gardening puddings my sentence has lost its sense and for somebody else it's very hard to make out what I was trying to say.

You guys are being rather toxic towards a community manager that has had nothing to do with the decision of the developers and game designers to include an in-game chat censorship that mimics the chat filter of other online games. Or are you guys now blaming Kyle for every balance decisions too?

1. That's just rude

2. it would be 'puddinging' not 'pudding'

Apparently you ain't reading. SHE is the person who thought up this stupid replacement.

And no, it's ain't toxic when this whole thing is not unfunny to begin with.

I don't see the point of explicitly allowing the flaming of teammates or opponents. What does it add to the game? Why is it necessary? Are the communities of DOTA or CS really that much better places with people raging freely?

With the admittedly childish censorship, it at least takes the edge off, like kamk said.

Though I would take disable chat over censorship any day.

Does it make a difference whether they actually succeed to insult or not? I'd still like to know what benefit there is to allow people to try.

Well... why not? Curse words are not only suppoused to insult people. Sometimes, it can be used to describe something, like situation on battlefield or... whatever else.

Anyway, there are thousands ways for trolls or retards for to insult people in game even without curse words. Banning them solves absolutely nothing,...

The issue isn't the units dropping constant F-bombs, nor the chat in general, it is people heavily flaming each other. Sooner or later it will get to you, you maybe answer to it, and at one point you might even become a part of the problem yourself.

Btw.: angry customers are always bad for business.

Btw: money doesn't smell. Guess SEGA knows it really good.
