Because that’s how we progressed as species. Even besides wars, that changed course of history, any change required throwing someone under the bus.
Doubt we would get anywhere, if concerns about wellbeing of others stopped us.
It’s somewhat funny observation, that mentally healthy people have almost no impact on history. It’s always unhealthy ones, that make historical events.
Holy God of cringe. This is how I know to block someone.
Dang that sounds pretty serious, I hope you don’t have a breakdown. Anyways
Cringe troll comment bro.
Anyways.
Can’t wait to see your cringe trolling continue “What?, bro I was serious, I’m wishing you the best man, that sounds horrible, I’m just trying to be nice :(”
Blocked and forgotten.
I understand, its really not a great process is it? 
I didn’t think for a second you were. Unless someone actively starts spouting that kind of stuff, it’s always best to give the benefit of the doubt.
Now this I agree on. The second you ask a higher power to control what people say is the moment you give them too much power over yourself and others.
I always go by: ‘Never ask for systems to be created that you yourself wouldn’t want to be subjected to.’
This is why the OP’s suggestion of an auto filter is a good starting point for a conversation, but definitely not something I would want to see implemented in game. Because we all know Blizz would make a hash of it.
Oh yes, I think for the majority of cases in game, it’s just a one way ticket to blocksville.
However there are some people who absolutely deserve a report and to get their account actioned. My issue is that, when it comes to tackling these extreme cases, CS is not reacting in a timely manner. They are letting these extreme cases continue to ruin many other games before someone actions their account.
I dunno, maybe tell your therapist that people are being mean online and they can help you through it…or something
That’s just it… EVERYONE is capable of being toxic at some point or another. I’m usually pretty level-headed in games, but even I’ve popped off with some one-liners here and there. Usually nothing too offensive, and it’s rare, but it happens.
There is no actual way to get rid of toxicity. Your best bet, if you’re sensitive to criticism or potentially offensive things, is to disable chat and don’t join voice chat. Only group with friends you know. That way you can stay within an ultra safe airtight bubble, until one of your friends pops off during a game and says something mean, when you mess up or don’t follow directions.
This, however, is fully unacceptable and should be reported. They WILL end up punished, it just takes time. If you’re one of those impatient “I made a report and need instant gratification right now! Call 877-RITE-NOW” types, then you’re going to be disappointed. I’ve seen it take weeks to months for reports to finally stick.
New generations weren’t taught simple, but harsh, truth - that world doesn’t revolve around them.
You’d be surprised how many people are actively pushing for this end result though.
It’ll be a harsh wake-up call for both ends
If you are “literally” having to “report someone almost every other game” - then I suspect you are stirring up the pot to create the toxicity to be honest. I can go 3, 6 10 games and not a word is spoken or said.
I have ADHD as well. My way of thinking is different, as I had a hard time not reacting to being bullied because my temper flares faster than other peoples’. I am not stretching the imagination. As I said, I was bullied to the point of needing to drop out- but not for the anger problems. For thinking things I shouldn’t have been.
Also due to ADHD when something I didn’t like was happening, I couldn’t ignore it very easily in the first place.
We react to social situations much differently, as I’m sure you’re aware. Everyone just has different symptoms of what they do and don’t react to.
So, being neurodivergent no matter what would’ve caused them to think and react differently to being bullied in the first place.
Add harrasment and sexism to the list. You simply can´t use VC and have a female name in this game, cause than “you are asking for it”…
Like I pointed out earlier. Look at their very first post. (Very top of the thread.)
It’s okay for them to use “Gen Z” as a “slur” for someone who reacts to situations that “gets their feewings hurt”, but it’s not okay for us to call them a “Boomer” in response for being dismissive of our legitimate concerns about sexism, harassment, ableism, transphobia, homophobia and racism when they’re supposedly a Millenial?
Sounds like you need to mature your self control.
Just because you don’t agree with something doesn’t entitle you to berating others or any kind of special treatment.
Okay but there are many people (myself included) who live and process ADHD everyday.
We don’t (and shouldn’t) receive special treatment simply because we process slightly on the spectrum.
You can learn to temper and control your own impulses.
Clearly you’ve been blessed with an ADHD that isn’t too hard to control for you to assume that it’s something I can. I’ve got a better handle on it now as an adult than I did as a budding teen.
I’m not saying we deserve special treatment, so don’t put words in my mouth. I’m saying that if you are neurodivergent, you think and process differently. And in general, people should be expected to not be jerkwads - and just because you can ‘mute and move on’ doesn’t mean that they deserve to get off with a clean plate to harass the next person.
‘Control your impulses’ can be applied to the person being racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist, et cetera as well. But, thank you for trying to manipulate my words in your favor.
Might need to take your own advice. No stranger to online gaming. Nobody has ever liked the kids on xbox trash talking or being mad. And you’re 36 claiming it’s a staple that should stay 
Trash talking also by definition attempts to demoralize the person who you’re doing it to.
So why in the flying fridge door would you want to do that to someone on your team unless you actively want to sabotage your chance of winning?
You can call a millennial a boomer if you want. It just means you don’t know what you’re talking about and devalues your arguments
Or I simply decided that I wasn’t going to be hindered by something that (is in fact) a condition that can be self-monitored
Either you’re asking for special treatment or you’re taking their retorts too literally
Have you ever considered that you could be the one at fault?
If someone is crossing the line, they will be dealt with 9/10. But you are not the arbiter. Do your part and move on.
But just because you don’t agree with someone being rude doesn’t make them toxic. This word is definitely being bastardized by mainstream media.
We have a victim blamer.
Yes, clearly, I - the person being harassed, is one at fault. I, the person being called slurs, is the one at fault. I, the person receiving homophobic comments, is the one at fault.
No, you’re simply overplaying your hand as a “woe is me”
