Thread: Religious Slander

  1. #1

    Default Religious Slander

    On a couple of the most recent NA worlds now, there has been a constant problem.

    There are many occasions of players posting above obscene things in world chat. Most common among these is the following:
    Offensive content removed.

    There have also been variables of this, with Offensive content removed., and some even -more- explicit things being posted into beginners chat.

    Sure, you can just prevent words from being said, but then that creates problems: why block the word Jesus? "Hi, my name is *****".
    You could ignore them, but these same people end up making NEW accounts once their speakers run out. Cycle starts over.

    Now as fun as it is to laugh at someone with just a sad life, it doesn't change the fact that it's against game policy to post things like that, as well as that is up and BEYOND multi-accounting.

    On one hand, I know you can't limit one IP address from having too many accounts, as then players that use internet hubs such as libraries and schools could not get on.

    One idea to counteract this, is limit how many accounts can be used by the Gateway IP that the computer is connecting though, if there are less than 10 computers are connected to the hub.

    As most home networks only have one router only has up to 5 ports, then the wireless connections which is often limited in number based on router type, that would greatly decrease the likelihood of someone doing it.

    Of course, that means kids at school could still do it, but you could also add to this an actual REQUIREMENT that registration to be verified, and can not receive speakers until they are.

    Last corrective measure is to have a live agent receiving reports off servers, depending on player volume, such as 4 players for reports on the newest server, then 2-3 for previous.

    Instead of necessarily having to pay them, they can be paid by the hour or day in cents, but must react to reports within 10 minutes, to verify they are there. Also, to prevent abuse from those, have a system where players who are disciplined can go to another mod and appeal if it's not valid, where the other mod then checks logs.

    These are just base ideas to help improve, please consider them as you will ^^

    Well I am a merchant Marine sailor...so I am, like all sailors, very accustomed to cursing like a sailor lol

    However I will be the first to say there is a time and a place for everything.

    I also found some very inappropriate language in chat.

    I think it should be monitored much better.

    It is easy enough to do. Simply recruit monitors and "pay" them a small nominal "fee" like a key a month or an amulet or 2. You will get plenty of volunteers for sure.

    Not really. Like I said..plenty of people would volunteer....the "cost" would be basically 0...since the "pay" would be pixels...lol

    As for banning? No need to ban a guy....simply temporarily block chat...even 10 minutes will get the message through 99% of the time.

    I know this from experience....I play an unrelated space age game that has a chat built into the screen. It really cleaned up the chat a lot and made the game much more enjoyable for everyone when they instituted a similar thing.

    Even the offenders eventually had to admit it improved the game....all except a few hardheads.

    not a bad Idea, but chat blocks some stuff allready. Maybe a moderator who watches... and in case of bad chat behaviour a chat ban for 1 day, next time 7days

    LOL I dont curse in chats or forums (much)

    I did get chat banned once or twice breaking their "no ban chat" rules

    Meaning you cant accuse cheaters in chat...must do it in their special cheater report section of forums.
