First the TOS and now this, FLOS you've been hanging around Big Week a little too much.  We're starting to rub off on you <BG>

During the fall of AW - Flossy got a TOS on the EA boards for something she said and including a link (to here I think?).

The FACTS don't mattter.  It's accusation and innuendo that reign supreme here!!

Hangtime: "Hullo Flossy, I thank you for being an active member of our community"

Flossy: "SHUT UP, you retarded piece of a monkeys butt!

Hangtime: "Oh, well, I just wanted to say I respect you."

Flossy: "Listen here, you shrimp dick. If the oozing smegma that comes from a putrid, leaking rotting wound would have legs, it'd call you its brother. I loathe you, you little whiny communist tard"

Hangtime: "Well wishes and love to you, my fellow human"

Flossy: <Silence>.

Flossy:  I wonder if you can teach dogs to s<typo>h</typo>it.

System: "You're a very, very naughty girl!"

Ah yes, there's a dark side of Flossy.

  :D

The Lady of Aces High is not capable of such a TOS infraction.  We all know her to well.  :)  but for ROC.....

Dear Player ROC

We received and reviewed numerous petty complaints against you in Aces High. After
careful review of the logs, our impression is you were cooperating in exchanging meaningless insults. We understand that conflicts can occur in the game for many reasons. In cases where there is no clear-cut offender, our hope is that players will cool off and learn to live with their differences if they are unable to resolve them.  Apparently you have not cooled off and have not learned that only sticks and stones can break ewer bones and words cannot hurt thee. Therefore we have no choice but to insert your foot into your mouth as a permanent reminder and to teach you a lesson you will never forget.

Roc your CPID has now been changed to

MOKESTER  :eek:

Sincerely
The Good  :)

LOL, reminds me of the time I had a mission going, a guy named "noodlester" or "noodleswager" or something joined it...I decided to call the target in the air once we launched to avoid "spies"...well, I started to assign specific targets, and typed in "Cock"(for short) and got the warning...ooops!  Okay, continued with assignments and did it again!  Muted for 10 min...with alot of folks confused as to what we should do...luckily, a squaddie was on RW and I relayed everything to him, which he relayed to the text buffer!

LOL Fariz!

i have muted myself for ten minutes two times (that i can remeber) by leaving the "f" out of "Shift" accidentally when helping out a new player.  

i think the filter is fun.  just last night i muted myself for swearing on a private channel. Thank god i had RW.

Flossy i bet that (or similiar) is what caused the warning

Profanity filters are useless anyway. If I ever wanted to mouth off and cuss I can certainly mispell stuff enough to avoid the filter but be obvious of what I mean to say

*F* replaced by *ph* in the 4 letter word and ding! no filter warning.

I would rather have a VOTE system to have someone muted.

playerinch1: you $#@$# , 4@#$@ I hope your mom $@#@#%$# $%#%#$ dog #$@%$@# .

A vote is started, once you get 12 votes (only 1 vote allowed per person) that mouthed off person is muted for an hour.

Works wonders in other online games. l33t sP34K always beats filters anyway.

That's just it - I don't know!  I was so shocked, I just sat and stared at the box for some time before clicking OK, and by then my last lines of typing were rapidly scrolling up the text buffer.  I couldn't see anything obvious, but it was scrolling fast.    :o

Hehe.... OK - here is my EA.com TOS warning, complete with my original message included (not sure if the links still work!):

--------------------------------------------

Hi awflossy ,

Your message below, which was located in the EA Worlds: Air Warrior III: General Discussions: Auger Inn:  message board was removed because it was in violation of EA.com Terms of Service.  It has been deemed to contain Unacceptable Discussion.  If you have any questions about the EA.com Terms of Service, please visit: http://ea.com/global/legal/tos.jsp.  We appreciate your interest in our service and we encourage you to continue to participate in our forums as long as you comply with our rules. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Sincerely,

EAVetMajesticSpy
EA.com Disciplinary Action Team

Copy of Hidden Message:

I can''t spend a lot of time answering right now, because my son is champing at the bit to continue getting stuff reinstalled for me after an upgrade of my Windows to XP... :-)

However, I will say again, there are several references to what has been happening over the last week. The first was a news report, stating that EA.com were laying off 200-250 online staff:
 http://biz.yahoo.com/rf/011023/n23252332_2.html

The fact that Mage, Kelton, Arnold, as well as the entire Development Team (everyone at Kesmai Studios as it was closed) were laid off is not just heresay. Mage himself has confirmed this over in the Bigweek newsgroup (news.kraits.org).

Another site to check out is this one:
 http://www.fatbabies.com/wc.dll?poe~showforummsg~GENERALIN~267461~FATBABIESX

This site reckons EA.com itself will close by the end of Q4 this year.

Have a look at the posts on Bigweek... Mage, Quarters, Kelly and other former Kesmoids post there on a daily basis at the moment.

There are just too many signs that AW does not have a future - but, like you, I will be here until the end, whenever that will be!

< S > ;-)

Yes, it can be bypassed, and is quite often.  But in all fairness, since the profanity filter was implemented, the tone of the Chan. 1 and 2 discussions has improved.

Of course, there's also the secret police, who silently monitor public-channel conversations and are capable of sending anonymous warnings.
