The Q_Q on forums over this from few day old accounts is hilarious. If you had played more than a few days, maybe you would understand how the game works? Or just too scared to post on your real account? :D

Great, the Liberals have arrived. What's next? Stop having bows in game because people shoot up theaters? Don't like it, don't put that credit card number in, Chief. Vote with your wallet.

I'm offended by this stupidity. Do I get to censor it out as well since everything is offensive?

#EqualDescriminationNow
That's actually possible, Infinity, by going to this link: Manage Foes. It's in your profile options, under the Friends & Foes tab. Adding me, will by default, ignore my posts.

This isn't your run of the mill censorship, and I can understand why Jorb sees this as a daunting challenge, as he sarcastically noted,
jorb wrote:Do we also implement scripts that...

Prevent people from writing offensive things using tile art?
Prevent people from using word combinations that are offensive without any of the individual words being so?
Recognize every possible permutation of offensive words written using alternate symbols, spacing, or punctuation?

That sounds both fun and possible.
In those instance, you don't use computer logic, you use human logic. You staff up, and you create an actual Customer Service branch of qualified individuals. People can just as easily create tickets and report infractions to see to it that, yes, every possible permutation can be reviewed.

You're not reinventing the wheel. You're applying common civic and corporate practice, which won't interfere with the game as you've designed it.

Actually I know quite a bit about it due to a video about it I watched, since I actually like to watch videos about this shit and cringe deeply as I think of the horrors we fall in once we give in to these people. I invite you to look at it so you can realize that what you just said about the black man shooting people, or the church shooting, has barely anything to do with social justice. It's bigger than that.

Look at this.

Even though how many would really bother doing that; let alone know how to do that? I don't exactly think those getting offended exactly have many brain cells to clunk together to begin with. :lol:

I'm sure there will be a few though. A few. An unhappy, depressive, few.
I wouldn't mind that. I'm not advocating censoring these people who make 'kill all nigger' trails, because I don't care. I actually like this game just for that, that nobody seems to give a shit. But I also realize that now that you monetizing stuff and asking money for a product, you need to keep in mind that consumers of that product can ask for certain things, or go elsewhere with their money. In this case, well, let's just say that their requests and demands are somewhat grounded if you go to court over a refund that the devs' consider a false refund.

All the judge needs to hear is 'the game features racist speech and it goes unpunished and uncontrolled' and he will instantly rule in your favour. So if Jorbtar were to implement some form of control, NO MATTER HOW SMALL, they could atleast say 'hey, we tried, and they circumvented it.'

And yes, this account is a few days old. And yes, I have an older account. The age of my account has nothing to do with the credibility of my arguments, where as you are simply spouting nonsense and calling it an 'argument' Stoneface.

Same creators that censor Nazi swastika even if it's historically accurate. I mean, I agree that it's nonsense. But removing it won't stop people from playing, where as it does stop people from complaining about mundane shit.

Except by limiting what the players can do and say ingame by saying "I don't think this should be able to be said/written/typed" is just your own way of enforcing YOUR rules onto the other players of the game.
Life does not operate by your rules, it operates by the rules of the ones in power.

In this case, it is J & L who run the game, and if they decide they do not want to see "racism" or "BAD WORDS" in their game, then let them do something about it. Until then, kindly untwist your panties from the liberal bunch they are in, and suck it up.

I personally enjoy the fucking hell out of the ability to speak my mind, ESPECIALLY when I know cunts like you are crying about it. Just how some people operate. If you (all) collectively bitched less, less people would know your "hot button" issues, and be able to use that as ammunition to hurt you.

What? I'd for sure stop playing if they succumbed to this social justice garbage.
