LOFL - here's your evidence of .rpt abuse

[Shane]

I have reported people i was not even conversing with. It is rare, but I have done it. Just because they go on and on and on attacking folks or berating folks. It gets old.

You're more than aware .squelch exists. Also that ch200 is entirely opt-in?

You're aware people have, literally, for decades asked for a perma-squelch?  (Some even made a macro that serves this purpose, iirc)

Are you aware of the impact of .rpt? I mean it's parameters, etc?

So again:
How do you feel about 2 sides ganging up on the smaller 3rd side?
How do you feel about people constantly bypassing the language filter?
How do you feel about being a nice 1 v 1 and then getting picked by 2 latecomers? 
How do you feel about ho and goers, right back to hide in ack or numbers?
How do you feel about all the (GVers, mostly tbh) whinging about cheat this, hack that?

If you're okay with all the above, which is fairly constant, then I guess you're okay with allowing a few people to abuse .rpt and turn into some kind of a perma-squelch because they don't like being called a... gunbunny? Because *I* called them a weeb. lofl, a weeb, you ask? Considering  "dweeb" has always been inside the line of non-offensive, a weeb is just a modern take, a weeb is a dweeb without a d.

So, once again, there exist tools that don't come with the ramifications of .rpt (do you even know how its implemented?)

** .squelch is for annoyance

** auto-filter (bad language) comes with a warning before you get a wee time out of 10 mins.

** mods, if they're on and are bothered enough, have discretion from warnings to bans maybe up to 2 hrs and possibly the ability to boot a player from arena (like a CM.)

** .rpt  used to be reserved for offensive, repeated statements, you know, nasty stuff we have all seen that has no place in the buffer.


I call player X a weeb for zzz behavior (there are more concentrated amounts of weebz left now, I guess)

Players X U and Z all start to hump my ankle, often with non-game related stuff and bypassing the filter (which you've seen me mention, plus truly nasty no business being said on ch200 stuff.)

I shake my ankle then even more jump on my ankle.  So, tell me, who's really being a dik and abusing the chat buffer (or other aspects of the game?)

You think I'm about to let a bunch of weebz dictate ch200?  I'm not, I don't.

Seriously, "gunbunny"

Tell me how your life changes when you’re muted?

[Max]

Shane, consider  a week or so of limiting your omnipresent ch 200 chatter. You regurgitate the same tired words  over and over...each and every day. Stop your incessant lecturing and PLAY THE GAME.

Tell me how your life changes when you’re muted?

A very good point.

OTOH, being muted is insulting, if you don't believe you deserved it.  We've had multiple threads throughout the years, criticizing the mods for muting someone.  It's the insult, not the actual injury.

The problem, IMHO, is that you can auto-mute someone if you can get enough people to do it at once.  There's no excuse for that, it's mob rule.  HTC should eliminate that "feature," or at least increase it ten-fold.

When all's said and done, though, is there really a point to making fun of the way other people fly?  It isn't likely to change their behavior.

stuff it max... let me see you go after HOtard, akaMixer, etc for their daily vulgarity (or cheat whines) then I might consider your opinion less hypocritical. These are a sampling from just this month alone.







And I really like how this last one represents AH chat buffer.

It's the 7 day ban that limits all communication - mob rule by a few people indeed. I wear it with pride and come here and mock them for it. They deserved to be mocked.

And I'm tired of weebz acting like it's all I ever do, 100% of the time - that's straight up bs.  Looking right at several people who barely play in MA but feel the need to pontificate about... gunbunny?

People have always made fun of how others play, and in the past abuse of .rpt for podunk bs was actioned upon. Those resources no longer exist, but it doesn't dismiss the fact this bs .rpt abuse is simply that... bs

More so when put up against the immature vulgarity and sexual innuendo that crosses the buffer every day.  Which I .rpt to no avail.  And I know why because I know how it works.

The faux offense of gunbunny, weeb, hoboi vs pooosay vs phuqqq ewe vs toejamestain shane vs how many more examples would you like or should I just find a box?

This is where the hypocrisy is on full display and what I push back against.  It's who, not what.

The inmates have discovered they have free reign from an absentee warden. 

It's HT's box, he allows or disallows what he wants.  He's busy and has other things on his plate to waste time on this.

This is also a hill I have no issue with dying on.

You have plenty of experience with this, right?

Yup

Thanks shane for distinguishing yourself enough to become a target by others.   

I’m positive shane doesn’t understand why.

I am aware of squelching and report.
I use   them together.

lofl, I totally understand why which is the reason you see me pushing back against podunk bs.   

You're a prime example.  You have nothing in this, yet here you are on my ankle which some typical weeb.

[Shane]

I am aware of squelching and report.

I call someone a weeb.  I get called a pedo, accused of stealing valor, get called things like this screen shot.

Save your pearl clutching for some actual offense like the sexual immaturity and filter bypassing. 

You seem to be okay with people calling me all sort of things unrelated to gameplay. 

Maybe it's simply that you don't play enough.

Maybe you should just de-tune ch200 during your limited time, or do you prefer to cruise ch200 looking for something to feel offended about on someone else's behalf? 

Have you ever gone after players W, Y and Z dangling from my ankles with comments like below when I'm only speaking to player X?  Didn't think so.

This is moron level trolling.
