blows my mind.
It is sad they have to waste their time on that.

I'm 29 and am probably around the same age as the rest of the server. Why this word is used is beyond me. If you said it in good company you'd be shunned.

im 27 and outside of video games, the word faggot is tossed around alot, ingame even more so.


everyone who grew up in my generation was raised on to know faggot as a curse word, not a derogatory term towards gays. and is used by everyone, and to start taking account action over curse words, not to mention ingame punishment for forum posting....

i don't know i just don't like the proactive looking for something to ban/suspend approach to GMing. Server will be the same if you suspend people for saying curse words, the server will be the same if you don't in the end you are only griefing people. and in my opinion GM's arn't here to grief.

.
Why is this specific term so ubiquitous amongst boys your age? Why does it seem so important to you? Couldn't you substitute "pussy"? I mean, that still questions your target's masculinity, right? Not gay enough? How about "bitch" or "cocksucker"? "Ass-pussy"?

lol people don't shun each other for dropping f bombs in public. I can't even believe that this is an issue on a game played by mostly men ages 20-60. Some of yall need to grow a pair

exactly, i honestly cannot believe this is even a problem and actively being persued. staff needs to entirely rethink this shit.

edit : if someone comes to the staff with a petition about language you need to call them a F-word and ban them for rule lawyering and abusing the GM's. i cant believe you guys are getting played like this so hard.

I would personally rather see GM's online doing 2 boxing tests, catching people exploiting, training, running events, answering petitions or even just not see a gm. Red has an excessively finite amount of resources when it comes to the staff and this seems like an immense waste of that time.

Excellent post; I remember when I asked GMs to invis stalk raid mobs on a 200+ man live twitch question stream roughly a year ago (so people don't have to submit gay fraps every single time). They did it for like 1-2 weeks and went back into complete hibernation. Literally never see GMs at raid encounters is embarrassing with all due respect.

There is no better way to catch people cheating/training/being idiots than GM invis stalking a raid encounter.
