The entirety of the lower enlisted in maintenance departments go off of “do not snitch” rules.
Is it right? Heh probably not, but it’s there.
Your server is also known for drama and ERP, over anything.
Covering it with icecream sprinkles won’t make it any better.
Yeah it was really the Kyle rittenhouse memes that did it, like I posted them last August or September, and just now I got hit with that 30 day.
Okay? So our server has idiots and people who belong in horny jail on it…
So does every server (both in drama and ERP), even if there isn’t a place where they congregate like the Lion’s Pride Inn.
The vast majority of roleplayers on Moon Guard don’t care about it, and most of the legitimate guilds have rules in place to actively avoid the area because we just don’t care about it and don’t want to be associated with it.

I hate RPers.
But I guess you do have your moments, gj.
That’s very awesome of you. 
I’m also a RPer and admit that some of the best people I’ve met on WoW are. Plus raising money for charity is a kindness that we don’t often encounter. Thank you.

Bottom line, never talk to anybody in pugs and ditch if they suck. Foolproof way to not deal with the system. There’s something to be said for something like this to be the intended way to be in an MMO but this is what thought policing gets you.
People will never agree on what is “toxic” or not anyway because the term is malleable enough to englobe virtually anything.

I don’t think they could list groups for years now.
If you play with someone that’s terrible bad or toxic, just get some personal blacklist addon or write his name-realm in notepad so you can check to never queue with this person again.
Can’t understand why people just want blizzard to decide who is worthy or not, neither why people thinks that calling someone’s dps too low will improve it like magic or make the player start the Bruce Lee’s training routine.
Queued with bad, toxic, undesirable player ? Do the content ( or leave it ) and make something to never queue with him again.
Don’t know the details but good. Knowing blizzard, it’s probably a terrible system tho
Probably boils down to being upset they just get away with it.
Do this all the time on twitter. I’m still there.
Do this all the time on the forums. I’m still here.
Do this all the time on multiple websites. Never been perma-banned - except neopets when I was like, 12.
I think some people would like to call me very toxic because I disagree very hard with people.
Maybe the world doesn’t actually work that like?
Thank god for this change.
Would be better to just perma ban people so they don’t show up in Discord groups too. Can’t be in the external comms if you can’t play the game at all.
No.
Ban em.
Buh-bye.

why not just temp ban them is the thing at that point
i mean
the definition of silence
i mean
k
i’m not exactly like, i don’t care, but can we stick to the definitions of things
…if you’re silenced, you can’t talk. How would they abuse the tanks and healers?
Person verbally abuses tank/healer - gets silenced. Can no longer verbally abuse another tank/healer.

look that is a positive, but it’s still playing a game to do it, i suppose what i’m saying is that it’s not exactly like a divine intervention
not that i’m trying to argue for that other guy either
The silence punishment just needs to be removed from the game altogether, not added to.
There is no recourse for false reports (…say, by a group of friends/guildies) or abuse.
Over in the BG forum, there is a poster that has literally been silenced for up to a year. It’s just bizarre, and waaay too excessive of a punishment versus the other infractions.
Legit cheaters, exploiters, and RMT offenders receive a much lighter punishment, despite being far more serious violations - it makes no sense at all 
If they insist on keeping it in the game, it should at least “reset” every year or just be converted to a “flat” penalty of X days.
Removing the “stacks” component would lessen instances of abuse like the poster I mentioned with a “1 year” silence at the hands of false-flagging trolls.
Any automated and easily-abuseable-by-players system (like silence) should never “stack”.

Silences don’t seem to be terribly common in game to begin with, much less system abuse examples. I’m sure it could be abused if say a guild, or entire raid team rallied behind a cause. But just a couple of people isn’t enough to warrant an automatic system action in an otherwise unjustified case. And frankly, those kinds of shenanigans are only going to work once or twice before the reviewers (who still get to review automatic action) catch on.

I used to do a ton of Battlegrounds and when they implemented the flag system, it was abused all the time by people from the same guilds and even multi-boxerrs.
Never been on the receiving end of it because again, stranger danger, but still stupid.
I don’t see how this is different.
