    The thing is, we've already taken a stance by giving the best possible tool to the players wanting to get rid of stuff like this as we possibly can: the mute option.

    Just as we have taken a stance against TK'ing on purpose with the introduction of the punishment system.

    You will not find us spending time on posting public apologies each time an idiot says something in our game - there are far too many idiots for this and far too little of our time to even consider this. Mute them and move on.

    I'm so chill because I realize what the internet is like and that we offer tools to remedy it. I couldn't care less about what certain uneducated people, only looking for the next thing to be outraged by, think of our game. It wasn't made for those guys in the first place - we lost those when we introduced violence/CSA flags/option to play as a confederate, etc. etc. anyways.

    I agree you are pro-active, with implementing features working against tk trolling etc. And with future abillity to kick/ban, and with the attitude Leifr described that will solve the problem on the practial base, and yes the mute aswell for short spand solution. But I do fear - as a lover of this game - that if there isn't a public generic message about no racism etc. the outside world will not look mildly on that, when they see videos with widespread use of these words. on servers you or anybodyelse have zero control over.

    But I do for sure hope you are rightfully beeing in full zen, and that you in a year or so can tell me 'I told you so, they moved on to the next fashion of the month' !

    Do you understand how difficult it is to see who is talking in the game? How could you say 'this is the best possible tool?' Are you going to do anything about players telling others to leave in this forum and spamming the n-word or are you just here to preach about 'outrage' and your politics?

    It's really not as difficult as you're making it out to be.

    Go to that page, and type in someone's name, and it ignores them. It's really not as difficult as you're making it out to be. A lot easier than wildly searching for someone yelling racial slurs by pressing T, lol

    Or you could just man up and ignore anonymous idiots on the internet.

    I don't even mute the average troll. I use my Mark I Testis and ignore him, or call him a name and move on with my day. It's rather simple really. May I suggest Battlefield V if you want your speech censored to the point of asininity?

    Dev1: ok well there are a ton of things to look at - there are lots of examples of games with ban tools and admin abilities as well as ways we could improve the ability for players to see who is talking and vote kick them. Currently it is nearly impossible to tell who is shouting racial slurs during the heat of battle

    LaBelle: actually *checks notes* it would probably be better just to tell the players to suck it up, snowflakes
    Still applicable, lol
