>>738943685You can already get permabanned in HoTS if people report you and you had said ANYTHINGThe report system is automated, if you see people only rarely use chat then thats whyMicroslop needs to get a taste of their own medecine
>>738943685you would have to be absolutely fucking retarded to play blizzard games
Good.
>>738943685>blizzard banning you from their games so you don't have to keep playing that garbage anymorebased, they are doing you a favor
FUCK
>>738943793don't you think he deserved it after what he did?
>>738943685Hilarious, doesn't Blizzard already have a profanity filter for WoW?
>>738944529This,Get far far FAR away from this company.
>>738945526yes, and id love someone to explain why banning for swears is an ok thing to do when this exists
what the fricking frick
>profanity filter is on by default>have to opt in to seeing swear words>swearing gets you bannedwoman devs
>>738943685Duh. Are you a fucking time traveler from 2016? Why do you think this is news?
>bots everywhere, win trading in arena, fucking STREAMERS selling arena boosts and streaming while they do it, gold selling, underground gdkps skirting around the gdkp banI sleep>someone said "fuck" one timePERMABAN HIM RIGHT NOW
Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck
>>738943685ahemFuck!
>>738947575>been less than a day before blizzard once again fucks over its player baseApologise
>you can get banned for repeating NPC dialogueAwesome.
>>738945656Sex wih Billy.
This is the same dev that would ban people in overwatch for spamming in-game voice line commands, claiming that it's "harassment"
fuck the fucking fuckers!
they raped women
theyre doing you a favour
>>738943685Then don't say fuck.
>>738949520asshole
>>738947575>permanently ban reckful for playing a viewers character in arena so he could play the class for himself>ends up with reckful killing himself>years later they just let streamers do it anyway what a company
>>738949520shiteater dickhead
What is it like in Wow? Do they have a filter for almost every swear, including ones the NPCs use? Do they punish you if you get around the filter?
I got permabanned from overwatch like 6 years ago and so far it seems like a good thing.
>>738950037>t. i have been using the same ISP and hardware for six years
>>738950079bro my router is a decade old
>>738950079you'd have to buy a new account to avoid a blizzards ban
>>738950473overwatch is free and their cheapest game is $3
I agree with the hate, but its a pity OP used a pic from the time that GMs were pretty based. Blizz hasn't used in-universe GMs for decades now it seems. Of course, the most based GMs used to >Wear green>Have GM tag>Green name>have the option for a "The" in their name or a similar title, when nobody else was allowed to do so.
fuck blizz
>>738943685>in all blizzard gamesSure isn't stopping anyone from saying "NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER" in brood war
>>738948384>say gg in overwatch after a game>banned for "toxic chatting"
well shit
i will still goon to overwatch
fuck it
>>738943685Buck flizzard
This is why mass reporting needs to be encouragedI just say mass report everyone for everything no matter the reason
>>738943685FUCK BLIZZARDFUCK THE MODERN AUDIENCEFUCK THE RETARDS STILL FEEDING THEM
How many MMOs have policies like that?
>>738955410none unless they are baby games
>>738950079No its just not worth making alt accounts for the game. Also this was before the game became f2p. Stupid tripnigger
>>738955410does club penguin count as an mmo?
>>738949520eat a dick faggot
>>738956104I'm stupid because you're a worthless socialite.Sounds okay.
>>738949793>ends up with reckful killing himselfI hate to say this but no one is responsible for someone killing themselves other than like, targeted harassment / life destruction. you can't just let people get away with stuff because they may commit suicide later on, that just can't work>years later they just let streamers do it anyway retarded that they let that happen
Can you say jew
>>738945526They probably forgot it exists.
>>738943685>meanwhile, in the SC2 general chat>bots arguing about politics>people publicly doxxing people by using multiple accounts and using the open lobby messages to display them in the custom games browser>n word sayers are unpunished >j accusers are unpunished StarCraft chads can’t stop winning, I literally just mute all the retards and weirdos in the chat, but boy is there some funny shit being said from time to time.It’s “The Joker” of video game chat rooms .And please join us this weekend in the 4v4 megaton custom lobbies, fun will be had. Games will be won and lost. There will be tears of suffering and of joy. There will be shit talking with the regulars, we play every weekend and you can usually find lobbies during the week too. Please come play and have fun(BGH btw)
>>738945389>>738945389
>>738956393I'm actually curious if it's ever been updated for WoW or not.
>ban someone for saying fuck in raid chat>meanwhile Voidspire general chat is spammed with "cum" for 10 hours straight
>Everyone says "fuck" all the time anyway>But if you get on someone's bad side, it becomes a weapon they can use against you by reporting youBlizzard should realize this, but unfortunately they are morons
Swearing constantly is such a bad look lol. Imagine a professional anything casually saying bitch fuck shit, it’s actual third world uneducated behaviour and it’s a sign on low intelligence and a signal that you belong to the underclass whomst lack basic self control
>>738956869Shut up, pretentious nigger.
>>738956869Yeah I know what you mean lol. Imagine people being so unprofessional lol. Couldn't be me lol.
>>738956869
>>738956869You haven't been around many professionals if you believe that.
Anal [Loa-Blessed Beads]
>>738956869yeah I too like to treat my casual videogame like a professional environment
>>738956869it's a video game not a job retard
>>738943685>Play in a game where you carry severed heads in your bags>Play in a game where you can get drunk to the point of vomiting>Play in a game where a female dragon was canonically held captive and raped to produce dragons>Play in a game where war, torture, and death are around every corner"FUCK!">That's a ban.
>>738943793I thought Jesus subscribed to the "sticks and stones" school of thought?
>>738949793>known mentally ill jew offs himself>other people in his family also killed themselves and had the same mental illness>UHHHHH THIS HAPPENED BECAUSE MUH BLIZZARDObsessed
>>738947575I'll be honest, when i read 'gdkp is banned' whilst searching up wtf anniversary server even is, i thought it was just the AI summary tripping balls and outputting garbage as usual, but saw it repeated on a wowhead summary and got even more confused what does that even mean? its emergent player behaviour, not a game mechanic they can turn on and off???
>>738958219When items drop in raids people bid gold before rolling, and the highest bid gets to be the sole roll. Everyone else gets paid for the trouble.
>>738958219Like the old "dkp" (dragon kill points) system people used to distribute raid loot within a guild, a "gdkp" is similar but with gold. at the end of a raid run all the loot is bet on with gold then the gold is evenly distributed to every member of the raid once every piece of gear has been purchased. It was the best way for players to make gold ingame and Blizzard banned it for no good reason. Now everyone is forced to buy from chinese bots if they want gold in classic.
>>738943793so do trannies but the game is full of them
>>738956869Do I look like a professional video game player you stupid bitch nigger faggot? I watch my language at work, but I'll call you whatever I feel like if you're being a bitch online.
>>738945526Yes, so anyone seeing the bad word deliberately turned it off. Blizz will still ban you, retarded.
>>738943685Purity purges. Soon there'll be nobody left except for the most extreme freaks, and the cow fetishists.
>>738956869It isn't constant swearing that is being discussed in this thread. If I get super lucky with a drop or something, I might say "oh fuck" to my guildmates. No one is "constantly swearing," because doing so ruins the impact of swearing.
>>738958219It's banned because it encourages/fuels buying gold. It's peak dystopia in a game.
>>738958613Except banning it had the opposite effect. Now without GDKPs the average player has zero way to make gold in the endgame without buying it. Every farming spot and auction house gig is completely dominated by bots.
>>738943685OH FUCKLES IT'S KNUCKLES
>>738958613GDKP being banned encourages even more gold buying. People want epic flying, professions, and bis enchanted and gemmed gear but can't compete with the bots for gold. Not to mention boosting is banned and all high level dungeons have anti solo farming mechanics added to stop bots which it doesn't just hurts the average joe
>>738947575>fucking STREAMERS selling arena boosts and streaming while they do itthe head of blizzard streamed himself selling boosts, it's a little worse than that
>>738943685I said "Fuck" in LoL and got banned for it. it really depends on if a team just reports you because they don't like you.
>>738959689LoL was the first game to go overboard with chat bans. People literally get banned for saying shit like "kill that guy" in a game where you kill the enemy players.
>>738959689It wasnt the word "fuck" it was faggot, the same banned faggot self exposed in a discord dm.Not like i care but faggot is bannable in all games thats just how it works, don't get where this narrative of "it was fuck" comes from when there's pictures of proof
>>738958613just ban the bots and RMT instead of emergent behaviour in your MMORPG by your actual real players?sorry, im sorry, ive been so stupid, I won't say anything stupid like that again
>>738960000It's been proven a million times that finding and banning the bots is super easy but Blizz refuses because they are still paying a sub fee.
>>738956869If you're playing any Blizzard "game" in 2026, you're in the underclass of the underclass.
>>738958574And they'll still wonder why their revenue is dropping when their AI moderators ban half the playerbase.
(((blizzard)))
>>738956869>its 3rd world to curse>no 3rd worlders literally do ithow about you suck my balls liberal cocksucker hiding you arent liberal
>>738956869Why do people pretend it's the fucking 50s? Casually swearing is normal. Sure, maybe not in every sentence but people's eyes aren't popping out if you add Fuck onto something to empathize it.
>>738958938>the average player has zero way to make gold in the endgame without buying itquests at max levelgathering professionssolo dungeon farmingI've made over 15k gold since tbc launch without buying any, and I'm a casual faggot
>>738943793Words are power They always have been
>>738963151>quests at max levelyou eventually run out>gathering professionsdominated by bots>solo dungeon farmingblizzard added gimmicks to certain dungeon mobs to nerf this
hahahahahaha
>>738955410don't remember how much the rule is enforced on tibla, like could you have a week ban on general chat. if the name of the character has a swear word you've to change that happens.
These are the same people who swear up a storm if you even namedrop Trump in their general vicinity. Why are they censoring speech while also claiming to champion free speech?
>>738963518>you eventually run outAnd when you do, you'll have easily 8000+ gold. More than enough for epic flying and gems and enchants. And then you can do it again on an alt if you need even more.>dominated by botsstrange, I've had no issues on my mining/engineer getting ore and gas clouds>blizzard added gimmicks to certain dungeon mobs to nerf thisexcept they didn't, you can still solo farm tons of dungeons, you just can't abuse evade resets anymore
>>738955410There's no swear filter in FF14 and I've never seen anything happen to someone who said "fuck" in shout. Might happen if someone went on a tirade and used it over and over, but even then it would just be a warning unless they had done it before. One time I got angry because some numbnuts got me killed in Eureka and not a single person lifted a finger to raise me before the 10 minute raise period expired (something I did for other players all the time) and I lost a ton of XP. I was so mad that I said something like, "fuck all of you assholes," over shout and I never heard anything from a GM.Also, I read what the customer support guy said on Twitter. He said the ESRB required them to limit swearing from players in game. That is patently false; every online game has an ESRB label stating that the developer/publisher are not responsible for speech from other players online.
>>738967095Them being massive hypocrites is not a new thing
>>738943685You can say nigger and rape in chivalry 2 without any censor yet i barely see people using such word that often there
>>738945656Fuck you Billy!
cursing is never okay while playing multiplayer games because it ruins the experience of others and it's hard to ignore. on top of that the kind of person that would curse in a multiplayer video game is also the same kind of person that would get too comfortable doing that all the time, until they do it just to annoy others for no particular reason.because of that the quality of the game keeps eroding if this is not kept in check firmly.a lot of people playing games are very immature and would curse just to annoy others, unrelated to the game actually being played.clearly this is unacceptable
>>738943685During legion days, I said nigger in trade or global something and got a 3 day chat ban. That was reasonable.
>>738943685that's why I right click - report everybody who triggers the word filter regardless.I will kill your game and your ideology faster this way too.
Why get angry when you can just not play anything blizzard puts out?
>>738943793jesus sounds like a homosexual
>>738969638
>>738943685Fuck that shit.
>>738970283Dude, you said 'fuck' again!
If you play blizzard servers you are an unironic faggot cuckold that is controlled by an MMO addiction. There is nothing you can say or do that will make this not an incontrovertible fact.
>>738956869>such a bad lookNobody cares about your opinion on aesthetics, broccolihead.
its over
>>738969585addicts
>>738945786Came here to post this. Not the last line, it's the conclusion I just hadn't come to that answers "why?"
>>738943685Don't care, their CEO is still gonna steal breastmilk from the fridge while he isn't visiting some other pedo-cannibal ranch after Epstein made himself taller.
>>738943685I wish people would finally realize Blizzard you remember is not the Blizzard we're talking about now. Overwatch when they became overzealous with community moderations was likely the major tilting point.
>>738972965Blizzard died in 2006
>>738943685>Using foul language in our game will get you banned, so don't be a potty-mouth in this house!>Anyway, come learn the latest plot development about how the Holy Light is actually nasty and evil for literally no other reason than that it shares some aesthetic similarities with ChristianityI will never understand the mentality of modern corporations.
>>738943685>haha based blizzard for taking down turtle wow>now im going to subscribe to enjoy the pride festival and not say swear words
>>738973482Not like the other side is any better
>>738943685Why is it that games like WoW and FFXIV permaban you for saying heck or telling someone how to use their own basic attack in end game raids yet I witness daily conversations screaming about jews and how afghans fuck goats from people with names like BIDENBLAST69 in Old School RuneScape?
Reading through this thread unlocked a forgotten memory of that Texas Chainsaw Massacre game Gun made and how actual inbred retard southerners would get on mic and call the black guy a nigger.
>>7389738041 extra gram of '"veal jerky'" has been added to your fridge
>>738943793>Jesus underage detected
>>738950079you're trans btw
>>738943685So don't say it.
>>738943685While this is faggy, I gotta lmao at the>So much for freedom of speech.Tweets and replies. Freedom of speech means the government can't come and punish you for shit you said (with some exceptions). It doesn't apply to video games. If you play an online game, whoever is hosting the game has "house rules" essentially. You can't yell "Kill all niggers" in a McDonalds without getting thrown out, you can't even say certain shit on 4chan without catching a ban. Ain't nothing to do with freedom of speech and it's funny to me that whenever someone gets clapped by a service like youtube, blizzard, twitter, whatever the first thing they screech is "muh freedom of speech". Again: I don't think anybody should get banned for swearing (Within reason, obviously if someone is a serial spammer using swear words ban them, but that's more about the spam than the cursing), I'm just here to laugh at the dumbass freedom of speech argument.
>>738943685good, swearing is for niggers, have some self-respect
>>738956265This pretty much. Like, if Chris chan commits suicide, by all means throw the lolcow stalkers in prison, they're likely responsible. But you can't just not ban somebody who is breaking your rules because "what if he kills himself over not getting to play the video game?"
>>738943685>Allowed to do virtual seggs in Goldshire>Cannot use the seggs word>>738943793Eh, I can understand if Blizz limits the words to the vocabulary actually used in Warcraft on RP servers in specific, but this feels pretty petty in 2026.
>>738943685Fuck around and find out. I guess he didn't care about his account
>>738943830After getting banned multiple times just for playing a hero people don't like losing to in Overwatch (ball) and having them falsely report me, I started aggressively reporting others for nonsense reasons and would get notifications daily of action being takenFuck Blizzard and their gay automated report system
>>738943685How the fuck is this game even still alive. How can Blizzard not went bankrupt yet
>>738973804Anon, that at least has the excuse of being direction-brained.
>>738943685oh fuckwithout thinking I yelled nigger at a dwarf hunter who feignstole my veinhow long do I have
>>738945786don't forget changing the names of quests and items that have been there for 20 years because they reference problematic person who was fired or something
>>738969585This is actually happening.Their games are dying and they are using more extreme ways to monetize on those who still play.
>>738943685Amerimutts were a mistake
