DEVS need to be proactive like DEVS of fallout

Options
Huge props to the devs of fallout for banning homophobic players. It’s a shame the DEVS of DBD don’t follow suite. There’s so many homophobic players, and homophobic messages sent in this game.. and y’all don’t care or won’t care...I’ve reported numerous people for homophobic remarks made towards me.. and nothing happens.

    If they're truly showing off that they're homophobic, they'll gain a temporary ban (which will eventually lead to a permanent one if done too many times) and, in severe cases, a permanent one.
    "Nothing happens" means they weren't being homophobic.

    You can't see temporary bans, so you can't know if something happened.

    Well, I was assuming you're not a homophobe and that your reply meant that you didn't care if people who broke the rules actually got punished for it. Was my assumption faulty?

    I don'r get how they have a word filter on the forums but not in game. It's such a simple fix.

    Also take Overwatch's idea, and when someome types "gg ez" it changes it to "i have to go, mummy says its bed time now".

    Are you serious about Overwatch? Because if so, that's the best thing I've heard all day.

    If your assumption is wrong then I think he needs to grow up in my opinion and understand that everyone - regardless of their sexuality - should be treated equally. I could care less about you being gay because I don't see that in you, I see an actual person just like everyone else. Every forum member, every DBD player, every person I see when I'm not behind this screen, and the people I talk to when I'm behind this screen are people just like everyone else. This should be more enforced in DBD in my opinion, it's just non-sense and it needs to stop.

    Test controversial

    Just because my boyfriend is gay doesn't mean I am. I ought to report you for hate speech!

    Note: I'm obviously kidding about the report, though I really am not gay. I'm bisexual.

    Dude, it's fine. Bisexuals are a small percentage of LGBT, so obviously you're going to assume two guys dating are both gay. It's basic statistics.

    Gotcha, I edited it out. However back on topic, they should add a detection system like the overwatch developers did.

    For example let's say someone said, "gay" in a comment. It will be automatically flagged and sent to a ACM for review in case it was a homophobic slur.

    I'd argue that blatant disregard for the rules is worse for the game than people taking offense to hate speech.
    And yes, it is hate speech. It's the same terminology used by people who will happily announce their wish to murder all homosexuals, among other minority groups. Maybe you just don't get it because you're not part of a group that is still illegal in certain parts of the world, punishable by death.
    Let me just reiterate: the act of existing while non-heterosexual is considered a capital offense in certain parts of the world.

    They could make it more specific: add some known homophobic phrases that the system would automatically detect. If someone went off on someone else because of their sexuality and they happen to say one of the known phrases. The system would automatically ban them for a set amount of time without an ACM having to do it.

    Dude, i am Mexican, i get """hate speech""" from americans all the time and i know when they are joking and when they are trying to "harm my feelings", it´s no big deal honestly, people like to make this kind of "dark humored" jokes all the time and until know they are getting attention for a completely stupid reason.

    The funny thing is it's just some tiny streamer going full SJW to try gain popularity and one of the most disappointing games of the decade trying to finally gain a semi positive headline. Obviously a standard ban was appropriate but this way the snowflakes eat it up and for 24hrs people aren't trashing fallout 76. Manipulation is obvious.

    If i am honest with you i don´t understand how bans work in PC, i play in PS4 and it is almost impossible to get banned in the game, usually chats are manages after the game and you got to directly create a chat with the player you want to send a message to.

    If i am reading your post correctly people get banned in PC chats for insulting others, am i wrong?

    People get banned by BHVR for breaking the rules. Hate speech is a violation of the rules, so people get banned for it.
    On console, the ban system isn't functional yet, but once it is, it'll be the same.

    It's because you don't bother reporting that nothing is done. Peanits has shown time and time again that reports are looked at and that bans do happen. It's people like you who make the system worse than it should be.

    Yes, that would be a couple examples.
    If the goal isn't to insult or harm, then why say or do things that are insulting and harmful? If I kick you in the balls and say "Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you", would you believe me?

    It's a friggin role-playing video game and tbh I would count that as in character, but "homophobic slurs" seems to be a much harder subject than childrape in fallout 3 and shooting people on sight.

    Stuff like this is why I regret coming to the west.

    i dont get mad, i just find strange the fact that some people get so triggered because of some joke, being so sensitive is not good for anyone.

    I'd argue that blatant disregard for the rules is worse for the game than people taking offense to hate speech.

    And yes, it is hate speech. It's the same terminology used by people who will happily announce their wish to murder all homosexuals, among other minority groups. Maybe you just don't get it because you're not part of a group that is still illegal in parts of the world.

    Dude, i am Mexican, i get """hate speech""" from americans all the time and i know when they are joking and when they are trying to "harm my feelings", it´s no big deal honestly, people like to make this kind of "dark humored" jokes all the time and until know they are getting attention for a completely stupid reason.

    And in post-game chat, people are always just trying to be dicks.

    Exactly, people are not trying to "harm" anybody, they are just salty because they lost.

    Saying that people aren't trying to harm others when they said something that can harm others is very contradicting.

    Saying something harmful like what? calling someone gay or stupid?

    Any insult (regardless if it's a joke or not), is against the "F.Q.A and rules".

    Yes, that would be a couple examples.
    If the goal isn't to insult or harm, then why say or do things that are insulting and harmful? If I kick you in the balls and say "Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you", would you believe me?

    But i dont understand, why would someone get harmed for being called gay or stupid? it´s not the same as getting kicked in the balls, you must live with it.
