Uhh are you living in the states or??? I don’t understand why you think this is such a crazy idea.
I am talking about in game here, and there is nothing with wrong with what I said, people are free to follow it or not, and whether they do or not, they still have to follow the rules set forth.

If they say something that breaks the rules, then they will be taken care of like they always are. Other than that, yeah people should be able to say whatever they want, whenever they want, however they want. If you don’t like it you can simply ignore. That’s what the ignore feature is for.

and sometimes people can also do what I suggested to instead of relying on the other person to do something about it too.

Which is auto-squelch I presume?
Hard disagree. Ignoring a problem is not morally superior to facing it head-on to deal with it directly.
Their house, their rules. Folks like yourself are attempting to inflate what is not welcome in chat to something beyond what it is. There is a whole world of topics that can be talked about (in the proper/correct public channels) including the actual game you are playing at the time. Cracking down on the small minority of idiocy in an immediate fashion is not morally objectionable.
I think that post speaks volumes about how you treat multiplayer games. Have fun with that (until you are silenced)

Lol no, where did you get that idea?
Well I was just reading through a couple of the comments posted above and someone was telling you about how people can abuse the squelch system and it seemed like you were half bake-ingly defending it so I assume that’s the ‘system’ you were going for. What other system were you suggesting outside of just ignoring and reporting people who are flaming?

Um no,lol, thats not what I responding to at all. I never said anything about a system either, I just made a reply and a comment, I’ll spare you having to look through more than the last 10 posts and restate I am not opposed to the autosquelch not being part.
Being able to abuse a tool should not be caused for that tool to be removed from existence. Hammers, knives and tire irons for example: They perform a world of good, but yeah people get poked and bonked with them on occasion. Punish harshly those who would abuse tools, make examples of them.
If blizzard was there on the spot to drive in my nails, cut my steak and change my tire, the tools would not be needed in the hands of the general populous. But reality is: they are not there, not there to moderate chat channels on the spot and remove problem individuals from them.
Apologies to folks in the UK who cannot purchase butter knives without a background check.

Just out of curiosity, what were you proposing then?
So are you for loot trading?
Lol i just said what i supported.
What did you suggest? You just said you were ok with auto-squelch not being apart of vanilla. What did you suggest people do instead of ‘relying on others to ignore’

Not remotely.
(Unless restricted to master loot ONLY)
Need before greed should be decided on which button you push, not who you are buddies with.

Read what i said before that,I dont want to repeat it again,.
Do you see the issue here?
My dude I read everything you said, you haven’t ‘said’ anything. Everything you said previously in this thread just leads to you defending auto-squelch. You haven’t said anything else. So just tell me what you said because as of right now it is just centered around you defending auto-squelching.
Not at all. The base tool of Need before Greed is the buttons and personal responsibility, and the tool worked exactly as designed and worked well, simple and elegant. Introducing loot trading nullifies (takes away) that tool.
Comparing it to the original reporting system where you had to manually fill out a ticket, wait upwards of days for blizzard to even look at it, that entire time being unable to file any other reports, all the while the offender was free to continue the idiocy across whatever channel they desired. Not so simple and elegant.
Sorry, but no hot take gotcha for you.

Yeah and ignoring someone and reporting them manually to be overlooked by a GM is also a tool and it also worked well, people were banned from WoW all the time in vanilla (including me) for flaming. Auto-squelch takes away that tool and just makes it exploitable.
I find it hilarious that you, self proclaimed nochanger, is completely fine with auto-squelching when not even a month ago I told you that I preferred the 1.12 version of AV and you freaked out on me telling me to go back to BfA because I am a no good #changer. You have to realize your opinion here doesn’t hold much ground here if you are someone who acts like that.
Oh please, nobody buys that the original system worked even remotely “well”.
I must have been having a fever the day I posted to the effect of being a self- proclaimed nochanger. Perhaps you missed my support for future horizontal expansion, or my support for guild banks. Glad your delusions induce hilarity. Everyone needs some fun in their lives.
LoL, what? Citation Needed
Making up stuff as you go does not lend much credibility to your post stylings, Nicho.
