What about calling people gay GeneralShowzer

Wouldn't that fall under hate speech?

What about the censor bypass? Can I now 'swear' without swearing? E.g. if I wanted to insert a certain four letter word in to conversation, could i switch round the letters or add another one to make it acceptable?

[QUOTE="Pelon208"]

And what about the people that for nothing get really mad, and start insulting and such?

musicalmac

Nobody will reply to them, nobody will care they exist, and if nobody cares when you're being a dbag -- it loses it's zest pretty quick. Just don't reply to people who act like idiots. You know the bigger they talk on the forum, the smaller they are in real life.

I always wondered if it was your mod status that got you all those quotes or something, since that's never how it worked around here and those Apple threads are quite the indication of such feat.:lol:

Insults are cool. Tasteful insults are even cooler. That's all I'll say on the matter right now (right now).

Wow! I thought we would be moving the other way. Maybe the idea is that if you don't like it then go to the general gaming discussion forum? That place could use more posters.

Im going to be honest I dont think these changes are for the better. The TOU is constantly broken here anyway. I can only see it getting worse. Ill reserve judgement though

Why you said that?

look if you don't like someones post, don't quote him and just ignore him. I think what the mods are trying to do is 2 things.

1º System WARS in GS will be more of a war zone, so this will attract more people from other sites.

2º Be the Mods work a litle more easy.

You can call people dumbass? Wow, this place is about to become interesting.

Indeed it seems kind of wrong, what if you have already given your argument and reasoning then someone just calls you a dumbass for no reason?

Then you simply ask them to justify why they feel you are :P If they can't without calling you a dumbass again - then you dismiss their argument :D

This is a System Warrior, right here.

[QUOTE="Slashless"][QUOTE="DarkLink77"] Saying anything on this forum would get you modded. Troll, fanboy, ignorant, etc. It was retarded. And now, finally, we are free. :twisted:GeneralShowzer
Is the word Retard still moddable? :P

What about calling people gay

That is where reading the Terms of Use agreement comes in under Handicapped and Sexual orientation. Derogatory terms are being discussed internally by staff. We will make another announcement if something gets changed. .

The big change is not forcing people to be overly kind to each other. The respectfully disagree method doesn't work for System Wars. We encourage the old way of report and ignore. We will not force you to be kind.
