At the end though, we found a middle ground of something that could drastically improve the game play.

I guess we do agree on at least some points. We have the same goal just some different views on how to get there.

@Grubz-hyjal

, in what context are these slurs really acceptable in game

Never

@Grubz-hyjal

to a point an auto-filter doesn’t make sense?

As said, it has to be really good before I would trust it to remove game access.

I still think you could factor in some sort of auto ban for repeat offenders. If you spam say the “N” word 100x in a channel or whisper with a macro… It’s rare… but I’ve seen it.

This use case is one of the situations I would back the use of an auto time out pending Mod review. That is not an accident talking about Assassination rogues that picked up on the donkey part. That is intentional, and repeated.

I think the current single word warns people? I have not tried and will not. But if you get X warnings about a word or phrase and STILL keep doing it, then I can deal with auto temp penalty - with GM review to make it perm or remove.

I would hope that would be rare.

EDIT - Oh, and if you were wondering what got me down the “we never had these types of rules before” rabbit hole it was another thread on this. Social contract - #67 by Joederp-akama We also get a lot of people on the CS forums who say the filter should mean they don’t get punished for breaking the rules.
