I hope you're not justifying you're behaviour by saying that they should just abuse you back.

Pussy. It's not "personal abuse", it's talking shit in a multiplayer pvp game. Also I'm personally attacking them whenever I build adrenaline before targetting a death's charge followed by a series of hammer KDs. I usually don't even look at their name before insulting them (also known as calling them out for being mean).

The ideal response to being called a pussy would be to say "shut the RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO up RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO bag" (if someone said that I'd think they were alright and not be mad), not being a bitch and reporting.

Anyway I'm going to try to swear less.

I wish there was some way for user helpfulness to come into play, because like I give away money and spend hours helping newbies but there's a chance I could get banned for telling someone to shut up.

Also when I get called a faggot or a bitch, I can give it RIGHT back trust me.

And that would up your chances of getting reported for verbal abuse. Look - I'm not unsympathetic - I bit a guy's head off after he kept insulting my friend just because she was lagging that day - and yes, you can be frustrated. Getting jumped by the same 'sin whom you know is a bad player? Frustrating. No arguments there.

Without adding the 'you deserve to be reported' clause, I'd like to say this: I don't like being called a faggot or a bitch, but were you to do so I'd take it in my stride, shrug, and go "What a rude player." But there are also many, many people who are going to get upset and /report. Or they will abuse you back until someone gets fed up and reports the both of you. Just saying, maybe you should curb yourself a bit.

In real life people cuss and there's nobody to report them to....it's just life and you have to deal with it. Time for people to prepare for the real world

Yes, but you're not an ebon dust aura dervish.

So basically more intelligence less swearing = less chance of a ban.

i dont usually report people becuz there just words but if they consistently say it and spam ill just ignore them its easier

Lux Aeterna · Apr 13, 2009, 01:21 AM // 01:21

I get /ignored a lot but I've learned it's more satisfying to /ignore them first after calling them a noob.

Actually, I did almost report some wammo who said probably the worst thing anyone's said to me online, but then he said it again and someone else told him he was a disgrace to his family ( SIX GENERATIONS ) so eh. Bitches bringing 6 defensive skills, hamstring and sprint then expecting a duel UM NO.

They probably don't mind the swearing but the fact that it's used to insult somebody.

I do hate the people who report for non-insult swearing just because they don't like to hear it... use the chat filter if you're like that!

You sir, are an idiot.

Someone close this thread. It is pointless.

Lux Aeterna · Apr 13, 2009, 01:52 AM // 01:52

It's "and"

You sir are and idiot.

This thread is not pointless because it involves my having fun vs. maybe getting banned ratio which is highly important. I haven't ever been banned from anything for cussing, once I got banned temporarily for murdering someone over forum issues then dissing the DM (hey it's not my fault it was a DM I didn't respect)... last time I got banned I think it was because I have really really good aim in CSS.

Are you serious? Sorry judging by your previous posts, then yes, you probably are.

Funniest thing i've seen in a long time but also pretty pathetic.

Also with regards to getting beat by a wastrels collapse sin...that only ever happens if your positioning is horrible, the point is, he shouldn't be able to tele to you in the first place if your positioning/awareness is good, the 2nd thing why were you so far away from your team anyway. The 3rd if you see him coming and new he would catch you (see awareness) then why didn't you call for help before you died. Same thing goes for people running after you and snaring.

As for swearing, needless swearing at people just because they beat you deserves a temp ban. Swearing at people who are actually just stupid and flaming etc etc yeah, go ahead then.

Yes, you can get banned for verbally abusing someone on Guild Wars.

This thread is getting pretty derailed, so I'm going to close it before more people flame. Your question has been answered.
