Again i really need to stress how vapid this whole thing is. Blizzard does not and will never have the staff required to enforce this on the scale they present it as, its just an empty show for the stock holders. yall… chill.
I read the blue post on it, and the condescending “if you don’t know what hate speech is by now…” crap. What is or is not hate speech gets people banned from social media in seemingly arbitrary ways. You might think it’s not going to get enforced, but I suspect it will, and unfairly so.
OP while I get you mean well, doing your best in these regards doesn’t mean it’s a requirement.
If you need to take time for yourself, do it.
Omitting from answering questions works, but if directly asked I assume you would at least be polite.
Do your best to just be a good person, don’t feel like you’re forced to do so.

The part about hate speech has been in the ToS since forever ago and has been enforced from time to time, so I assume it will continue to be so.
What I’m saying wont be enforced is the “Do your best to help others and be nice!” part. Not just because it was simply a suggestion, but that certainly helps.

No, you won’t be,
You can still do that.
Then you don’t have to do that.
Seriously though, if the thought of having to help someone has put you in this big of a tailspin. You need to step away from WoW, seek some deep, deep therapy and come back in a better headspace.
You are coming off as being purposefully obtuse about a VERY simple concept.
This is why you aren’t being treated as genuine.
Keep playing the game as you have been and nothing will happen. Or quit.
I’m honestly a little triggered by the obsession OP has with being absolutely obedient to the point of parody.

Oh, I didn’t mean to say I have a problem agreeing not to engage in hate speech. I just thought it was uncalled for, for the blue post to be condescending about it, when social media companies have a long history of enforcing that arbitrarily.
The “Do your best to help others,” won’t get enforced, of course. I still don’t like being forced to agree to do it. Now, if you were agreeing that you’ve read suggestions on how to make the community better, that’s a very different thing, and one I’d be totally cool with.
You’ve done it every single time the TOS has updated. You’ve already agreed to it a bunch of times.

Your perception of me is incorrect. It is not my fault if people do not know how to read neurodivergents correctly, and compare me to people I am not similar to, based on their experiences that come from a place that commonly doesnt accept neuraldivergents.
Double Empathy. You are mistaken about me probably from your experiences with people who arent being genuine. I’m not at fault if other people arent being honest when I am being genuine.

Contexts, Contexts, Contexts.
it is to a point of it being taken out of, This new thing going on with the game is supposedly to “Cut down” Insensitive Toxicity within it.
as a player you can still choose not to help someone or do, because it is still a choice, to be made by Us the Players.
Saying something Bad or Insultingly Negative to someone can still be deemed as “Abusive Chat.” which is why they threw this into the game.
It might seem odd but it actually happens. I had that same issue when I was a teenager, so religion made my life really hard back then since I felt I was never who I was meant to be. Fortunately I was able to overcome it.

My god this thread is dumb.
Autistic autistic autistic, I am autistic and I do not understand context based on neuraltypical experiences.
I wish more people understood how really different I am, and WHY. I wasnt born with pragmatic skills, or born with the nature to learn pragmatic skills.
I’m autistic, not a joke. I have a different set of experiences in this world, and I am sick and tired of being sick and tired of being misjudged most of my life.
MOST, not kidding. MOST people I have met and communicated with DO misunderstand me, and I am so dang tired of being misjudged. So bloody tired of this repedative misjudgements because ppl will judge me based on what they know of typical people.
I am not typical.
I struggle to NOT defend myself against LIES about me.
My question is answered. I do not want to be accused of more LIES.
I hate being accused of things that aRENT TRUE. Ugh.
My autism is how I am, how I exist and experience the world. I cant just dump the main part of me on the side of the road when I communicate. Being misjudged most of my life is something outside of my control, unless I just dont say anything at all, but I’m sick of being passed off as some idiot or troll based on experiences existing outside of myself.
Someday people I hope will finally understand and stop treating me like trash because they compared me to some liar.
P.S. Indirect communication is not natural for me. I wish people would stop assuming I’m stupid because they couldnt be honest or direct or take some time to help explain the nuances and details of the variables of instructions. Social differences, not social ineptitude. I have different communicaton skills than the majority, but why do so much of the majority feel like I gotta come 100% all the way to meet the majority needs, when acceptance of diversity could make life better for everyone without misjudging a genuinely honest literal person to the realms of “bad” just because they arent like most.
I try to be as good as I can, in my way, but I am either too much, or too little, and I can never find my place unless I am with other autistics or ppl who accept all walks of life. I’m tired of being so pumped of frustration I cant help but defend myself in hopes that someday, one of these false accusors would actually figure out they were wrong about me. I have hope where most people I have watched give up. Give up on me, give up on caring, I dont wanna give up. I want to see the day were people stop thinking I’m trying to be bad, because they misread my social skills. And I want to enjoy what I enjoy without being pressured to be pushed past my breaking point.
I’m glad to be helped by those who were willing to help explain the contract, sometimes I need to read things several times for me to finally get it.
I’m slow, not dumb. Thank you and good luck.

Easy Champ, this was not directly targeted at you.
While yes, that sucks on a whole other level, That system was implemented and IS intended to keep the peace, even for people with unfortunate complexities, that affect their daily lives.

I found a loophole in the social contract. I only had to accept it on one of my accounts.
So be prepared WoW community. I’ll be spewing nonstop nastiness on my second account and nobody will be able to stop me! MUWHAHAHAHAHA!

Can you show me where in the old EULA it says I have to agree to do my best to help players and answer their questions?

Thank you for explaining. I have a deep appreciation for additional patience and correction and clarity. I apologize I had misread.
Edit to add:
Where do I go to argue against a false report? Someone reported one of my posts for trolling.
I do not troll. I am misjudged as a troll. I do not troll. I need to argue with the false report

That’s not doing your best then. That’s doing too much. Just relax. You’re not obliged to communicate any more than you feel is necessary. You can leave all channels and ignore all whispers. It’s fine. Fine for any reason, but especially if it’s for the sake of your own wellbeing.
