An extremely crass, racist generalization

  • Reason for report : There was an entire conversation regarding our Filipino players. Some made incredibly hasty generalizations. Unfortunately, I only managed to take one screenshot - MORE THAN ONE PLAYER JOINED THE ARGUMENT. Hopefully, there’s a chat log somewhere? Or others have screenshots?

Others are at fault for the unrest as well (some racist statements against Americans were brought up as well). Regardless, content like this is uncalled for.

We all have freedom of speech, but for the good of the community, it’d be best to be respectful at all times.

That’s… not really something that he can get punished for. It’s the equivalent of someone saying “Americans are a joke. Always thinking the world revolves around them.”
If you have a screenshot of him cursing or repeatedly making derogatory posts, then that’s an issue, but in this one all I see is someone being rude on Shout chat.

You shall not use any abusive, defamatory, ethnically or racially offensive, harassing, harmful, hateful, obscene, offensive, sexually explicit, threatening or vulgar language. (Alternate spelling or partial masking of such words will be reprimanded in the same manner as the actual use of such words.)

I apologize. I thought offensive language against race and ethnicity were violations of the Terms of Service. The TOS did not specifically state ‘repeated deroagatory posts’. And by offensive language I don’t mean foul/swear words; derogatory statements can be considered offensive language.

I’m not asking for him to be punished. Punished or not, I felt this should be brought up to the community. Statements like these aren’t necessarily true, and can cause deep pain for the person reading them. It makes the environment uncomfortable. Just thought it would contribute to a better “in-game environment for everyone” (quote from a staff member). :slight_smile:

don’t worry. all races deserve respect on the server except the ones who caused the mass bank fraud ghost account token creation

All animals are equal.

except pigs are more equal

and stop reporting people who hurt your feelings. Turn off shout and grow up if you can’t handle people being rude about your home country. I’m fully with Sixaxis on this one.

Wonderful ad hominem come back.

Did I specifically state my feelings were hurt? Where in my explanation did I mention that? I simply brought this up because it may have caused unrest within others. Do I have to be Filipino to do so?

Once again, I apologize. I thought this was a space where we could bring to light certain issues regarding behavior. It may have not been worth the effort for you, but it was for me.

I understand we cannot shelter everyone from ‘rudeness’, but I deemed it to be a clear violation of the TOS. If it isn’t, I tried. No need for personal attacks. If you have beef with me, we can settle it in-game.

Your report amounts to morality policing because someone stated their opinion and didn’t even use any curse words or foul language worthy of actually reporting it.

Well, it’s probably my countryman that made the statement, I apologize over their braindead-ness.

Humanity is a joke anyway, everyone is equal.
