Reporting people that offend you is toxic

@Smáshing-atiesh

I so agree with this people today behave like children.

If symbols that create meaning in your mind cause you pain.

lol and please grow up

If symbols on the screen that comprise the TOS cause you pain, you might want to find a new game.

@Réynn-emerald-dream

You’re bad at this game.
Why?
Because you’re bad.

Sounds constructive enough to me.

what makes you think you are good? honest question. some people are good at some parts, but not others. others are good at other parts, etc.

You don’t get a two week ban for a minor first offense.

This is false, people have gotten banned for random amount of times for minor to severe offenses and there’s proof it all over Reddit where people who have never done anything face a perma ban only to make enough noise to get unbanned.

Maybe instead of roleplaying as someone whose too morally superior to everyone you can let go of your ego and understand that reality is far different than the fantasy world you live in.

There are thousands of false reports going out and when you end up on the receiving end of it, I hope you carry the same arrogant energy you have today.

@Fuzzbutt-zuljin

Man if only people were this thing called new or learning…

Man if only Wowhead existed right? Or google? Or Youtube? Nah let’s troll and grief the 10 other people in the BG and waste time because i’d rather report people instead of bettering myself.

nobody ever lies on reddit. yup, bastion of truth there.

[Fuzzbutt-zuljin]

This thread is still up?

And people on reddit fib all the time o.O

@Lfd-grobbulus

@Heraclius-thunderfury

and you will be reported.

@Fuzzbutt-zuljin

And you would be reported for toxic behavior because we all agree calling people trash is unacceptable…

There’s a cap on how many reports you can give out a day, if you play like garbage and refuse to improve then you will be called trash more times than you can report and eventually will be reported yourself for griefing and trolling.

This is what happens when you allow snowflakes to ban people, it’ll turn on you too and there will no one to protect you.

@Alîcê-azuresong

How does playing AV teach you how to play WSG. You get into the bg and you still won’t know what to do your frist time in.

Well you play a 15 year old MMO, there’s steps to it and doing AV spam for honor will get you gear to survive WSG.

If you join WSG is trash greens with no intention to learn, get prepared to be reported in the same system that you abuse.

you know, you can make a premade team with people of your lofty attainments and never have to team with plebes. Or make a ranked arena team, that will protect you from other players.

It’s funny how you guys always out yourselves in one post lol.

Maybe stop calling people trash and you wont be banned.

@Kurathis-pagle

That’s not constructive, that’s purely negative.

Accept criticism even if it is a negative one, it is up to you to improve.

[Fuzzbutt-zuljin]

Is that directed at me or the person replying?

I’m in the quoted text.

[Zapkaboom-azuresong]

not you, sorry bout that.

[Fuzzbutt-zuljin]

All good. Was just making sure. lol

Welcome to 2022.

“That person offended me and I want someone else to fix the problem” is a modern mindset promulgated by Boomers getting old and the Millennials they spawned.

[Piezuri-benediction]

Back in the day, we had far fewer toxic players who could only insult. They still existed but it was far less common place.

I fully agree with reporting people who are toxic and insulting. If it was a one off or a rare occurrence, nothing happens. If they’re vile all the time - well, they deserve it.

@Lfd-grobbulus

If you feel offended by someone saying:

“You’re trash at your class”

The proper way to respond to this situation is something called the Ignore function, it literally blocks all messages from this person.

It really depends on the nature of the offense. If someone is being intentionally nasty by calling someone “trash,” then they run the risk of being reported. Importantly, no single report will result an an action against you (afaik anyhow), but if enough people report the same person, then action could be taken. What’s important to remember is that if you’re not an a-hole to people, you probably won’t ever get reported enough to warrant action against you. And if you are an a-hole in general in game, then I have no problem with the repercussions you face.

And by the way, calling someone “trash” certainly is a toxic thing to say. You wouldn’t do that in real life to someone on the street unless you were asking for a confrontation, so why do you think it’s okay to do so in game?

[Mcg-benediction]

This is a huge problem in the game.

siiiiiigh

[Blnkintowall-shadowstrike]

By the way, 24 people liked this post. I’d like to believe that there was a time in our history when no one or perhaps just a few would like it. That’s the world we live in now.

[Sotirios-pagle]

Hey WoW community wanted some ff14 “quality” ? Here you have it

[Heraclius-thunderfury]

You should watch Turner Classic Movies sometime. You’d be surprised by how censored old movies were. Sorry, but there’s more free speech in the world now not less. Regulating speech through social norms is nothing new.

[Chappytank-grobbulus]

My favorite part about reporting is getting the notification that action has been taken haha.

[Cryptkepper-mankrik]

Im pretty sure you just casued alot more people to actively use the report button when this happens now. Good job OP
