well i do wish the video game world had thicker skin but i am not the boss of this world
You can though.
Hero class, the first hero class.
Yep. Bunch of weak people OP. Itâs a delusion that the loud few believe and hold as gospel. They grew up soft and cushy, getting everything they want and never being told they were idiots. Never being given the truth. This is the result.
I stand corrected. I am old, my brain cant find things where I put them.
Yes, and should you choose to say them, you should have the stones to accept that someone else might not appreciate it and may take action to stop it.
Your right of expression ends when it comes at the expense of another person.
This is from 2015 how do you people keep doing this
Itâs from June 15th.
Even then itâs months old

Oohhhh scary!
I was going to say âOh look another one of these threadsâ until I saw the thread was created in June. So, nevermind.
The world is not safe. You will get hurt and you cannot stop it. So these new terms and conditions which stifle my creativity in the chats of warcraft are mind boggling.
What?
Your creativity is stifled if you canât cuss in a game?
Oohhhh scary!
!!

This was a hot and bothered discussion in June (this year), not 2015. As you can see (and apparently donât like) there is still more to say.
I need to visit a Dairy Queen soon. A Reeseâs Blizzard will make me love again.
wiggles toes
Great taking things out of context!
The OP used the term âMFâ and was talking about free speech in general.
Donât need your sarcastic congrats or comments.
28 DAYS LATERâŠ
An illusion? What are you hiding?
YOU⊠YOU ARE A NECROMANCER IN DISGUISE.
OK
#1 Free speech is not a guarantee in a private business.
#2 Although many players live in the US this is not a US only game.
#3 Free speech is not always free of consequences.
Let me elaborate.
#1. If you scream fire in a crowded theater and there is no fire, you can be arrested, even if you donât scream fire, if you are in a crowded theater and the movie starts and you start playing your radio or talking on the phone, or even talking to your best bud, you can be removed since its a private business with its own rules of conduct that as a customer you have to respect and adhere to. If you do not want to do so then you have the option of not using their business. WOW is the same you are using their systems to âchatâ with others if you donât adhere to their policies well they have the right to remove you.
#2. I think this was clear enough as it is, while many of us live in the US, not every player does so stating that âUS gives freedom of speechâ means little to nothing, thatâs like saying in Australia you have big bugs that live with you in your house, its true but not everyone in the world will see that as normal. (Ok mr bug you can keep the house im out.)
#3. Consequences - too many people think they can do whatever they want say whatever they want and not have to deal with the consequences of their actions. Becoming and adult should have taught you that is not the case. It was fine when you were 5 and you broke something and apologized but as you get older you canât do that anymore. You will have to pay for what you broke, how you acted, or didnât act, life is like that and you grow more mature once you realize it. If you were living alone, completely, then sure you wouldnât have to watch what you do or say but even then this could lead to some âdumb way to dieâ scenarios. So yes actions have consequences, and speaking and typing are actions.
And where does it end really?
Sadly this company has gone to the woke garbage side of things. It doesnât end here and will only get worse as time goes on. Sadly.
The world is not safe. You will get hurt and you cannot stop it. So these new terms and conditions which stifle my creativity in the chats of warcraft are mind boggling. To the point where i say MF in trade and get reported⊠would this be akin to getting the police called on me for saying what i want running down the main street in my town. Just words. My voice. Every oneâs voice. How is it that we have âFree Speechâ in U.S. but inside this construct that iâve played for a long time, i am essentially pre-censored from using afore mentioned word/wordâs. By that i mean ahead of time im thinking of funny or down right mean things i could be saying to people with my âwordsâ but i now just dont and the people that are offended the most /scream /cry bloody murder because of their own attitude, not simply, the words i will or will not say. If i get offended by someone in game⊠blocked bam easy peasy. Now if another gets offended or rather emotionally destabilized by the reading of some words by someone they cant do anything but block them but oh wait Report⊠whack heres your ban for however long. i mean câmon you are creating the beachhead for the silencing of peoples thoughts ideas jokes anger sadness⊠w/e it may be. This is a start of bad news. And where does it end really?
LMAO âStifle my creativityâ Translation: I cant call someone the N word (most likely). And if you were running down the main street in your town screaming obscenities, yes you would probably get reported to the cops. Just how clueless are you about laws and things? AND ONCE AGAIN: Free speech only protects you from the GOVERNMENT. Not a private company running a game. Dude, go back to school and read a damned book on this subject. Seriously. Iâm sick of seeing people crying about âMUH FREE SPEECHâ when those people have NO idea how it works. Maybe also try reading some of the stuff you just ignore when you sign in? There are rules for playing the game. Lawyers LOVE people who donât read contracts btw then violate them and cry about it later.
