    I'm sure by slurs they meant a bundle of sticks and not just gay.

    Saying someone is gay is not bad, its the same as saying a black person is black or a lesbian is lesbian.
    O course the people who say that dont mean It in that way but devs cant do anyting if the context is not clearly verbal abuse (which would be calling you something like [bad word] gay, instead of just gay).
    There has to be explicit verbal abuse in order to ban someone.

    This ^ basically.

    Like being offended for calling the grass green. If someone calling you gay is offensive to you, then you are believing there is a negative connotation in being gay. You don't like gay people? That's pretty homophobic in itself. Pointing out something isn't offensive, stop getting offended so easily. Snowflakes everywhere.

    I swear "Homophobic" is used out of context 9 times out of 10.

    It's amazing how you're already dismissing this out of hand without even knowing the context. You made up a story and pretended that's the reality.

    No, but with Neo Nazi movements on the rise, they're trying to normalize it.

    Is that really happening? I am in the US and I haven't heard about neo Nazis in years!

    They call themselves the "alt-right" now, but it's the same principle - kill all blacks, gays, etc.

    Jeez that's bonkers....on one end of the spectrum you have people being offended over the tiniest things, and on the other end you have religious/hate groups killing and hating people for whatever reason.

    Politics itself needs a rework (at least here in america)!

    Why is it I have to choose between the crooked Democrat or the crooked republican...when neither of them can/will do anything about the real problems facing our country (our food, our healthcare and our entertainment "industry").

    Lol...I should go live in Antarctica....but I wouldn't get good internet.

    Looking at it from an outside perspective, the Democrats are nowhere near as bad as the Republicans, and are often more proactive in "cleaning house", as it were. Whereas Republicans defend pedophiles, homophobes, racists, and neo Nazis, as long as they're in their party (which the latter three usually are), Democrats will force such people to resign.

    No it's not okay to say these things, like it isn't okay to call someone fat, ginger, gay, or their race...but sadly it happens.....but this happens on most forums, most chat things, it's bad i know, it's best to ignore these people, turn off messages.....because some people will say nasty ass sh** no matter what, someone will always find something to post, something nasty and horrid to say, but it's these who say death threats and the more serious things....yes it hurts, people who say that if you get offended on the net should very much just hush......there is no different to a net post, then a text or phone call....it hurts, but sadly the best thing to do is ignore these twat waffles

    Looking at it from an outside perspective, the Democrats are nowhere near as bad as the Republicans, and are often more proactive in "cleaning house", as it were. Whereas Republicans defend pedophiles, homophobes, racists, and neo Nazis, as long as they're in their party (which the latter three usually are), Democrats will force such people to resign.

    I know, right? Wrongists try to make everything political.

    No, but with Neo Nazi movements on the rise, they're trying to normalize it.

    Jeez that's bonkers....on one end of the spectrum you have people being offended over the tiniest things, and on the other end you have religious/hate groups killing and hating people for whatever reason.

    Whole world is seriously borked and needs a patch/rework!

    Lol. The world needs some serious thinking though, the ######### that people say over politics.

    Politics itself needs a rework (at least here in america)!

    If you don't like the end game chat, you can just click leave. You stay you consent to be called anything the other people desire.

    scoffs no one constents for people been a dick

    Then click the Leave button as soon as the game ends. That is your option not to give consent.

    Not everyone wants too, because believe it or not, some give people GOOD comments, is how some people meet....shrugs no one is giving consent for it, people just shouldn't be asses about it

    It's kind of sad the world we are continuing to create.

    When people are targeted for who they are, whether it's race, sex, or sexuality, people are often told to "just get tougher." When children are bullied, we blame the same children for "not standing up for themselves." When women are harassed, we blame these women for "not dressing appropriately" or "not fighting back." We continue to protect the bullies, harassers and rapists, racists and bigots, and instead blame the victims for "being weak" or "sensitive."

    "If you are [physically, mentally, emotionally] strong like me, then this wouldn't be happening to you," they say. So we've come to live in a world where ones doing the offensive actions don't have to ever take responsibility for what they do or say. And we'll continue to live in a world in which people will tell others to just get tougher like them, with much, much less emphasis on being kind and empathetic to others. Because being a decent human being apparently doesn't account for much in a world where all we care about is being strong and tough.

    If your fragile little hearts can't handle it, then click the leave button at the bottom of the screen.

    If you choose not to, then you are infact consenting to that person to tell you whatever they wish.

    Here is the reality for you.

    Not everybody is as strong as the others and they don't have to be. Yes, If you are not strong enough, you should not engage in discussion on forums where people discuss such things freely.

    If, as a homosexual, you decide to visit 4chan, you should be prepared for what is coming. People are not going to be nice to you. There are websites like encyclopedia dramatica that are designed entirely to insult people, and again yes if you are weak, you shouldn't visit such websites.

    I am playing a multiplayer video game about killers and survivors, it is against the rules to insult people, homophobic slurs, or racist comments. It has nothing to do with being strong or weak. People don't have to put up with this bullshit.

    This is not a leftist propaganda or anything. People don't have to put up with insults to religions, popular religious figures etc. because it is not the place for it.

    Go to forums where people discuss such things, DbD isn't the place for it.

    Idk I just assume everyone is a 11 year old with the iq of 30. Except for the decent people I treat them how they treat me.

    I am going to disagree with you whole-heartedly on that. When you get to the extreme on both sides, you have some pretty ridiculous and exclusive ideology. Far right is more "face-value" (IE: no _____'s allowed!). Far left is much more indirect (You are not allowed to do _____ so that this person can do it instead).

    Both are terrible and both redirect attention from the root of the problem, which is probably the goal of bipartisan politics lol!

    You just... get on with it. You do what you do. I’m a sensitive child when it comes to these sorts of situations but, in retrospect, it always looks stupid seeing them just list off charactistics as if they’re insults. Yep, people are gay. People can also be new (noobs/trash) and that’s okay, not everyone is good. Some people camp and can be called out for it or falsely accused, people can use DS or loop and can be labelled toxic. And you can cry or be hurt by these things but once you dry away those tears you’ll quickly forget about it.

    I’m not. Why would you play an online game and expect anything less? I’m not implying anything, I think you jumped the shark here, Orion, I’m not at all supporting trash talk, it’s just an easier solution to ignore it in general.

    Yes, ignoring the problem is easier than dealing with it, but ignoring it won't make it go away. Reports that lead to bans, however, will make it go away.

    I believe there is some truth in what you are saying.

    Remember being a kid and a bully would call you names and parents or teachers would say "ignore them, they are just trying to make.you mad".

    When it comes to namecalling, I totally agree.

    I feel that real hate speech goes beyond just calling someone a name but includes some call to action (ie: let's beat this guy up or don't let this person in)

    Its the internet, its easier to ignore or report someone and impossible to show some strength, which is the only thing such people respect in RL (Especially those ######### talking on the internet, what strength do these kids have anyway?). 

    There is truth to it, its easy to just report it and move on, they are not able to follow you nor are any threat of your physical wellbeing. 
    Knowing this there is little sense in paying them more attention then a report, just unhealthy.

    Saying someone is gay is not bad, its the same as saying a black person is black or a lesbian is lesbian.
    O course the people who say that dont mean It in that way but devs cant do anyting if the context is not clearly verbal abuse (which would be calling you something like [bad word] gay, instead of just gay).
    There has to be explicit verbal abuse in order to ban someone.

    This ^ basically.

    Like being offended for calling the grass green. If someone calling you gay is offensive to you, then you are believing there is a negative connotation in being gay. You don't like gay people? That's pretty homophobic in itself. Pointing out something isn't offensive, stop getting offended so easily. Snowflakes everywhere.

    It's amazing how you're already dismissing this out of hand without even knowing the context. You made up a story and pretended that's the reality.

    I'm basing off the context that has been provided. If he offers anything contrary then I will gladly change my stance. However, he has not. So I go off what he has said. There's absolutely nothing wrong with my statement still.

    OP is talking about homophobic slurs, not being called gay. It's like if someone's complaining about something calling them the N word, and you're like "So you don't like being called black? Lol triggered snowflake". It's like you're being ignorant on purpose.
