How does this
Relate to this
There won’t be a deny option. You already agreed to the rules in the EULA when you first started playing. And one pop up like the EULA isn’t going to need a block feature. Nor will they allow one, most likely.
Then why would they put them in a “agree” or be disconnected menu instead of just asking you to agree to the already existing EULA? Oh because it’s not the same thing as whats in the EULA and you’re just full of BS
Brilliant. Lets start banning people from our already dwindling user base. What could possibly go wrong…
So? You are saying that you are fine with caustic jerks playing making everyone else miserable all to keep sub numbers up?
It’s because people lie and will claim they never read it.
What is it with you people when someone says: “just be cool with each other”
So you’ve never in your life had to re-accept a Terms of Service from anywhere?
These are literally the same exact rules the are already in the EULA/CoC. Adding on some suggestions to the top doesn’t change the actual existing rules.
But please, keep acting toxic.
Again, they are not changing anything in the rules. The same rules have been in place since 2004.
Failure to enforce results in a notoriously mean group of players left. Hence one of the many reasons people who want a social game play ones that enforce rules - such as a major shift from WoW to another that has heavier enforcement.
If looking at reasons why players leave, or don’t participate in group content, the playerbase as a whole is part of that equation.
This is the same reason you can’t run around a theme park like Disney being a disruptive jerk - they escort you out. Not all customers are equally wanted by the company.
You should read the story about a software company awarding $1000 for reading a ToU, they buried a clause in one awarding $1000 to the first person to report it to them. It took about 8 months before it was awarded.
That is a lie, otherwise they would just point you to the existing rules. These are new. They are vague. They are easily interpreted to punish anyone for almost anything, and like the good little lemming you are you just run with it for social credit score reasons with blizzard. Such a joke.
It’s not going to do anything unless Blizz actually hires more employees to actually look into the reports and take appropriate action. If it’s left to an automated system and can be abused it will do nothing, people will accept and continue to be people.
This already exists, though.
Edgy blueberry.
They are the same ones that are in the current EULA - which asks us to follow the game and forum Code of Conduct. It might be new to you, but not to those who read the rules.
You will want to read the forum Code of Conduct in particular. It has rather detailed descriptions of what the mods enforce.
This is what you have CURRENTLY agreed to.
IN game right now
Blizzard games offer a fun and safe place to interact with one another across various game worlds. We encourage our players to cooperate and compete in our games, but crossing the line into abuse is never acceptable. If you come across a player violating the policies below, you should report them.
Communication
When participating in communication of any kind (chat, voice communication, group finder), you are responsible for how you express yourself. You may not use language that could be offensive or vulgar to others.
Hate speech and discriminatory language is inappropriate, as is any obscene or disruptive language. Threatening or harassing another player is always unacceptable, regardless of language used. Violating any of these expectations will result in account restrictions. More serious and repeated violations will result in greater restrictions.
Naming
Names are subject to the same rules established above. Any name the player has the ability to customize—such as player names, BattleTags, and guild names—must be appropriate and inoffensive. Any name that violates our standards or disrupts the community will be changed, and additional limitations may be placed on the offending account per our discretion.
Take note that acceptable names are determined by player reports and Blizzard’s decision, and role-playing servers may have distinct standards for using game-appropriate names.
Cheating
You are responsible for how you and your account are represented in the game world. Cheating in any fashion will result in immediate action. Using third-party programs to automate any facet of the game, exploiting bugs, or engaging in any activity that grants an unfair advantage is considered cheating.
Exploiting other players is an equally serious offense. Scamming, account sharing, win-trading, and anything else that may degrade the gaming experience for other players will receive harsh penalties.
Behavior
Behavior that intentionally detracts from others’ enjoyment (such as griefing, throwing, feeding, etc.) is unacceptable. We expect our players to treat each other with respect and promote an enjoyable environment. Acceptable behavior is determined by player reports and Blizzard’s decision, and violating these guidelines will result in account and gameplay restrictions.
While we encourage you to report players that are behaving in a disrespectful manner, falsely reporting another player with the sole intent of restricting their gameplay is also unacceptable and will result in penalties to your account.
If you’re unsure if your actions violate this code of conduct, reconsider them. We reserve the right to restrict offending accounts as much as necessary to keep Blizzard games a fun experience for all players.
That’s my point though, it will continue to be pointless, as it will be abused. Blizz actually needs to hire more employees to actually enforce it and act on reports on a case by case basis.
Wrong. Compare the language between the two and stop gaslighting people. One is specific, the other is so vague you can literally ban anyone for any reason. Explain why they BOTH exist. I’d love to hear the reason you make up for that.
All of it, and the EULA, allow them to ban people for any reason, or no reason. With no refund either.
You already agreed to that. I am not going to try to explain all that to you. You want a fight, and that is not worth it to me.
You can either follow the same rules you already agreed to, or deal with the consequences if you get reported. This applies to the forums too.
It is morning here enjoy some coffee . Maybe go PvP in game if you feel prickly today.
I don’t know, players finds a way to abuse vagueness too…
They don’t. A friend keeps getting in trouble on a dating/social/… um… that kind of app lol because they don’t follow the rules. Recently, they received a lifetime ban but were able to get it overturned for one last chance lol.
I highly doubt this because at the top of the both CoC’s have a time stamps of when last “updated”.
The fact that Blizzard has to “update” these CoC’s over time most likely proves that the imaginary made up Dictator rule that is “HaTeSpEeCh” was never there to be begin with.
Then again I have no real proof of this because it has been 17 years now of the ever changing rules of the CoC’s.

where’s the 2004 CoC?
