Super confused as to why you are taking a hypothetical example I provided and asking me to look up how many crimes are committed by people with concealed carry…
I’m not going to look it up, because it has absolutely nothing to do with what I was talking about.
RCR is like giving everyone a gun, everyone is a hall monitor, everyone is the hand of god.
It’s a little toolkit that blizzard provides you with so you can “defend yourself” against other players because ignoring them is not enough.
Communication is key in classic. Can’t have people muted just because someone doesn’t like them and gets their friends to report them. We have an ignore list. Its all we need.
I know it seems ridiculous, but in the case that someone is being a public nuisance and people report them what’s the quickest way to defuse that situation? a DC…
A squelch seems reasonable enough. What can they do to be a nuisance that doesn’t involve chat channels? All I can think of is griefing group content (and that’s solved with a kick).
tbh I’m waiting for someone to make a vanilla raid frames addon so i can use that
Right Click Reporting is fine… up until the point where automatic punishments get thrown down. If it was just a quicker way of sending in a GM ticket, no one would have a problem with it. But automatic punishments handed down by mob rule is a recipe for abuse. Especially in Classic, where the community aspect is far more important than in retail.
I’m not some fragile 17 year old who grew up with helicopter parents pushing all obstacles out of my way so I never had to be confronted by a situation where I might actually learn how to deal with my fragility. I do not care what you call me. I’m not going to run to my mother and tell her that the bad man said some bad words to me, so he must be punished. People getting banned for saying things on the internet is a joke. It’s making our entire society weaker as a result. We have to tiptoe around and cater to the most easily offended person at all times lest we get banned. These people are authoritarian to the core. They want people to suffer for words. They need to make everybody fear them while acting like a victim.
If it’s not a direct call to violence on you, then brush yourself off and move on.
RCR is an utter failure, in case I didn’t make that clear. It’s also clear by the upvotes for the people who don’t like it vs those that do. Proof positive that this is purely pandering to those who can only find worth in how oppressed they make themselves out to be.
this is hate speech against snowflakes.
This is Blizzard’s system that was primarily designed to quickly and efficiently remove Gold Sellers from the public chat channels. I can see you were playing as recently as two years ago; surely you can direct us to the numerous posts you’ve made fighting against this system since its implementation in May of 2007. There’s no way you’re just jumping on a band wagon like an NPC, is there?
No, I don’t have written evidence of my not liking something. Does that invalidate my opinion somehow? Well done detective.
I’m glad you’re speaking out against the system, 12 years after its implementation. You must have been really bothered by this evil, authoritarian punishment system.
This trainwreck of a culture simply did not exist back then. It has been perpetuated by submitting to it.
RCR did not exist in vanilla. End of story.
That’s true, very true. It will, however, exist in Classic. Nothing you can do about it, sorry.
if there’s one group who appears to be unable to learn from their past mistakes…
it’s people advocating for censorship.
Yeah, except I can voice my opinion about it. and so can others. It’s called protesting.
Big bad Blizzard is the only online game developer with a system in place to enforce their rules.
/s.
never said it was a blizz-only issue. never said it was a MMO only-issue for the matter.
it’s a people issue.
it’s people advocating for censorship / squelching other people not understanding that it will be used against them.
This stuff is too easily exploited on retail. Disappointed that it’s coming to Classic.
I’m not paranoid about a system that’s been in place for 12 years that has never punished me.
