Appropriate behavior? in the Arenas
« on: September 02, 2004, 01:12:10 AM »
I just want to know where does it end.......

 the filter don't even pick up the GD word typed out on text.......

..but to continously talk with a garbage mouth and degrade  the game for others is down right uncalled for people.  Clean up your act..act like you are a 1/2 descent person with some good manners.....if you can't acknowledge a persons don't type or say anything at all.......If you are asked to clean it up , well you are being rude, obnoxious and  are ruining game play for others around you...... use some etiquette

or  go back to your  parents and ask them what is a proper reasonably polite way to act when you are within a group of people of all ages......

To me profane language comes quite far down the list of what makes a gameing experience unplessant.

Here is my list of things I dont tollerate.

1. Cheaters
2. Lamers, people that always have to "win" no matter what and go out of their way to exploit and do lame shait inorder to acomplish that. Vuturing, spawn camping, discoing on purpose, ect ect.
3. Selfish people who only fly for them selfs and dont care about others. Pilots who never help out a wingman. Pilots who dont respond to noob questions. Basicly just them and their kill ratio. BnZers that rather see their wingman die then get dirty, yes Im talkin to you.
4. Bad loosers. Playing a PvP game is about give and take. You win some you loose some. Take the loss learn from it. Dont sit there blaming others and be upset about it.
5. Whiners. Really is part of 3 and 4 but they get a honorary mention as well.
6. People who flame on chats, note that flaming doesnt have to involve a single profane word. In fact its far more effective, degrading and hurtfull if done in educated english.
7. People who constantly express how good they are and how much YOU suck.
8. People that dont work as a team. Who just cant call a six when they see one. FFS there is a button for six calling and a built in voice chat. Goes pretty much hand in hand with 3.

All these can be people who dont say a profane word in their entire life. But god do they hurt my gaming experience more then a player who curses.

Imho from what Ive seen so far in game so far, not quite short time, is that there is alot of selfish players but the level of chat is relativly mature.

Ive just ran into one incident where a player was beeing a total moron over the chat and really annoying and guess what he wasnt even cursing.

So all in all I think the community here is really well behaved but has a tad to many stats potatos.

Every once in a while, I've been guilty.  HOWEVER, I don not cuss on Range channel.  But a few "certain people" almost have free reign on 200.  They spell the words out, and it seems as though nothing happens.  Granted daily they get warning, but after a week's time when they ARE Still doing it.  

I got muted for merely saying to country mates "that as long as we have the numbers the Bish and Knights wil slam us".  I said to stop the whining on the Rook Channel.  I didn't cuss, or use an alternate "word" for cussing, others seem to have a punch card.

I know the ones that ABUSE the system.  I'll post names in here if asked by enough people but frankly, I have a feeling, the majority of them are adults.
