Agree, and you can´t ignore so every player is insulting and/or raging in the chat if it´s not about you.

Where the fuck do you think you are? On Habbo or Club Penguin where the ban you if you use a curse word? Get out if you don't like it here.

I don't want to live in a world without curses and insults.

It´s your choice, insults are and will be everywhere but they are not needed.

where did u born man, under a bridge?

Bravo mate ...you make a topic about stoping insults and first thing you do when i comment is ...insult me!

Mods ...you can lock the topic now since the original poster has proven his hypocrisy.

Skrevet av Croat, 21.03.2015 at 09:18

No, but he had car accident and went under a bridge. Since then, he loves insults and bad words.

This is actually true.

Dude, i didn´t insult you sorry if you took it as insult.

But a normal person doesn´t like to live in a world full of curses and insults.

The real insults are what me and all the people here can read everyday about his families, about his mothers, about his sisters, etc etc etc (just in a simply game)


What´s your problem about to ban the possible insults here?

Firstly i'll give you a tip - insults are only insulting if you willing to be insulted by them and secondly grow up, please. we do not need to start some crazy censor campaign in this game just because of words. cant you live in the real world instead.
If i were to give you some advice. stop caring so much about what people say to you who you don't actually know and honestly stop caring about what other people are saying in general.
Its none of your business how they choose to speak.

"Someones kills your mom. Is none of your busines so stay appart".

Or just for give another example:

"Someones feels like steal your freedom. None of your business so stay appart".

There is a word that describes such actions. It is called Cyberbullying. Sorry if you are strong enough for hold it, but we are not. It does hurt the mind, and trust it mind damage has been always more dearly than own body damage.

You shouldn't encourage someone to hold up against insults. But rather to report them. Is not about being mentally strong or weak, but to not let anyone steal your freedom.

You might not care, but I am ethically forced to tell you to not do this.

I do agree atwar needs a filter to some degree.

Your entire comment is stupid, plain and simple it just lacks all semblance of thought process. i'm kinda hoping that parts of this are simply due to the language barrier but if not you really need to get to grips with analytical reading and constructing an argument, this is not an insult just an observation.
if i didnt know any better i'd swear your just trolling me

Firstly if somebody in the real world attacks me or mine of course this affects me directly why wouldnt i do something about it. I mean where did you even come up with that, it seems a bit overbearing when the topic is about banning words and words is the only thing i've referred to in this what the hell.

This has nothing to do with bullying. The only aspect of this thread is about the use of pre determined "bad words" which this thread is trying to make me unable to use which i consider a breach of my freedoms so shove that in your example. Also the idea some some words are not to be used because they are determined as bad is one of those things that makes me feel like my brain is going numb.

I'm not mentally stronger than anyone else i just have the brainpower to prioritize and to be honest if someone tries insulting me good on them its a waste of there own time not mine i dont have to do anything. but this isnt about insulting someone its just about certain words and i assure you that if somebody wants to insult you badly enough they wont be hampered by a ban on a few words they will just get creative.
On the bullying thing there is a mute button,use it. if they take it further than random insults in chat room then that is a real matter and if reported will be taken care of swiftly i assume

This idea is just so unnecessary.

and don't worry i do understand that not all people on this game might have a mature outlook on life due to there age or whatever but that doesnt mean i have to suffer because of it.

There is one thing called freedom, and another different called debauchery. As far as I am aware, your freedom ends when it interferes on someother's freedom on a very excessive way. So yes, your freedom have one limit.

As for the filter violation, I've already suggested that it should've reported and mods should apply a punishment to it. I do agree with you that we cannot 100% reduce it, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to do it.

I Would Recommend Instead Muting the Agresive player for Several Minutes, a Ban would be Excesive.

Venezuelan.

5. Harassing, threatening, embarrassing, or doing anything to another member or guest that is unwanted is not permitted. This includes posting insulting, offensive, or abusive comments about members or guests, repeatedly sending unwanted messages, attacking a member or guest based on race, sexual orientation, religion, heritage, etc. Hate speech is not tolerated, and we reserve the right to end any conversation to avoid further escalations.

6. "Trolling" which we define as comments, posts or threads that knowingly lead to overly strong, negative, and emotional responses for mere shock value, is not allowed. Accounts created with the sole intent to "troll" will be immediately and permanently banned. Constant personal attacks are also considered trolling.

Until and unless these rules are changed, obviously any violators should be punished appropriately.

Note, however, that none of the current rules explicitly prohibit the use of certain words. Even racial slurs are permitted, according to these rules, provided that it does not "attack a member or guest based on race, sexual orientation, religion, heritage, etc," or constitutes "trolling." Thus, I am opposed to the idea of any sort of filters.

Grow the fuck up. Does this look like care bear land where we all sit around in a circle on the carpet, hold hands, and sing about how we want to be buttfucked by elmo? No it fucking doesn't. This is a war game. The fact that what you are worried about, in a game based around killing, murder, and destruction, is if people say mean things to you shows your idiocy.

When you enter the real world, you will be very disappointed to find that the world isn't just butterflies, unicorns, and rainbows.

Topkek. This is a game for the nerdiest of nerds. You literally move circles with numbers in them around on the screen.
'[M]urder and destruction', this might be the funniest post i've ever read in this forum.

Can you Jew Amsterdam, - I find that offensive PLIS BAN USE OF JEW.

Bonka - I find this offensive PLIS BAN USE OF BONKA for sexual connotations

Hitler - This word disgusts me - Stalin - even More and dont even mention the word Goblin

Chocobanalol offends me it contains the word Anal

Anyways words are just that, words on a screen.

I never said it was graphic in any way, but the truth is, the game includes murdering civilians (civilian casualties), killing soldiers, and destruction (collateral damage).

So yes, it is based around that, and the game goes into actual scenarios such as WWII, Korea, Yugoslavia, Middle East, etc. If you don't find that offensive, but you find people saying mean things offensive, clearly you have some fucked up moral system.

After clicking ignore reload your website, like you have to reload for igconito to work

I know how you meant it. And yes, I think that calling your mother a whore should offend you more than me taking London from you in an Estonian strategy browser game.
Talking about fucked up moral systems, human communication is the prerequisite for living in a society and also for playing games with other people to have fun. Maybe work on that rather than drawing maps.

Big NO to censure, Internet is not a bubble, insults are a part of life and the internet is too.

If the developers had infinite time, I'd suggest that there be an option to completely remove the chat feature, somewhere in settings, for those who aren't able to handle it.

Okay, so making a joke about someones mother is much more offensive than death and destruction. Got it.

How the hell would we suppose to rap battle with filters?

Morality is subjective. This really depends on whether you view AtWar as an abstract mental exercise, or a model of the real world.

Chat filters in AW? Please, don't turn this into some habbo shit where you can't even use the word "strip".
If you get so offended by people insulting you that you have to make a topic about it, then the Internet is not for you. Sure, the rules are there to let everyone have a good time while playing the game and the moderators are there to enforce those rules, but we don't need the whole retarded chat filter thing.

Besides, those "swear words" that you are complaining about and saying that people should not be able to even use on AW, are the same words often used in a friendly chit-chat. So, it all depends on the context.
It's just as offensive to say "I had sexual intercourse with your mother" or "I made love to your mother" as saying "I fucked your mother".
Not to mention that those chat filtering scripts/programs, whatever you call them, are easy to bypass.
Like, if you want to say "I fucked ur mum" you can say "I fuqed ur mum" or "I fked ur mum" or something like that.

Conclusion; mods can judge better than a stupid machine and whether someone uses an "insult" offensively can be a touchy subject sometimes and it takes a human (moderator) to decide. So no, AW doesn't need this, in my opinion, stupid idea.

This isn't some bullshit debate about morality and philosophy. That can be left to another time. The fact is, we, as a society, view death and destruction as more offensive than "i fuqt ur mom lol"

^--- Insult... be the change. Also, i support what you're saying, but getting rid of insults by insulting someone isn't going to solve the issue. Besides, everyone knows goblins aren't born under bridges... those are trolls. =p
