Yedwy Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 There is the "automatic chat ban" and there is the "manual chat ban" the former is done by a filtering program looking for usual cursewords and phrases and it hands out couple of days of ban, the manual is done by an "operator" as a response to somebodys ticket or some other way of letting WG know about the offence, it can hand out any length of chatban from onew day to (allegedly) permanent 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostbow Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 For the most part it is not toxic. It can be, if the interpretation or perception of it is toxic. A triple Well Done! simply means: ♡ Well Done! For the enemy who valiantly fought and died for his team, ♤ Well Done! For the player who had the honor of destroying the valiant enemy, and, ♧ Well Done! For the rest of the warriors still engaged in battle for helping out. /s 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never had an issue with it, although I do employ it myself relatively frequently. It's just a funny part of online banter and nothing more. Seems like people here read far too much into it. Wait until they see Rocket League's "What a Save!" or Overwatch's "Thanks!" 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can't mean a ticket as it's instant, but is it just based on chat filter engaging some automated ban (it doesn't do that at least for one or two F-words... don't ask me how I know this...) OR is it based on some predefined number of reports that other players make in that battle? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the confusion about the use & meaning of "Well done!" was started by people who were mis-using the phrase. I still intend for Well Done to be a good sentiment sent as a message to praise and reward good behavior. Which is why I still use the Well Done quick message. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, the line is crossed with the triple well done in quick succession. That's always an insult. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When someone has done well, I take the time to type out a well-done. When someone messes up royally or is obviously acting contrary to the rules, I report them and move on. Insults are for the weak, and I have no time to waste on people who actually merit an insult. I've got enemy ships to sink. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those bans are not automatic, but imposed by WG staff after reviewing the chat log. Or, you are on their "Hoofty" list and it makes them giggle to torment you.....

So you can take your inference as to what horrible things I said and use them for Ballast. I don't know what's worse . People who are abusive in chat or people who make things up so they can post BASELESS accusations without a fact in them just to try to appear Holier than thou and knowledgeable. I won't wait for you to admit that you are wrong. People like you never do. DISMISSED "People like you?" Careful there..... Some of us, "people like me", come from the real world where they use, hard core, serious Corporate filters that would make you cringe..... Risk mitigation is a proposition some Corporations employ to remove simple, discoverable, word liabilities.... Cross the corporation's list of bad things to say and you are speaking to your VP, HR and your union rep.....and, it won't be pretty. In the Military.........ooooh......bad wu-ju boo-ju (I've seen Article 15's handed out (Captain mast level for Navy types...) Here, it's the seven dirty words and even that, doesn't really cover what happens everyday. Heck, we see the seven dirty words in chat daily in COOP and those players are not being chat banned??? Reported by fellow players, yes, banned, not that I've observed... Notice the word "observed" does not mean "know of first hand...can verify...can attest to..." It's just your opinion..... of a process - we see the description of - but really, don't know anything beyond that ^^^^^.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I just utilize the customer support ticket system to report the egregious stuff and leave it at that. No sense in getting down under the bridge with most of these guys...just turn them in to the local constable and get back to trying to win / have fun in the game.

I suppose I could always conduct a field test with select terms... something like 'stat queen', for instance. That could be my term of endearment for those people who go 'now I see why you hide your stats' and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GandalfTehGray Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Would you rather me type what I want to say to the guy that just suicided in ops or asymmetric rather than a sarcastic well done? Because one of these options would definitely get a chat ban. What is labeled as toxic behavior now makes me really glad that recording/streaming wasn't as big when I was playing CoD online from 08-14. Because our group definitely had some colorful language in english/Spanish. Both to opponents and each other. https://youtu.be/izB1ZzAGfEU?si=mVVCgd-i-x1oOM8I 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because one of these options would definitely get a chat ban. It USED to be a legit bit of cheeky sarcasm that has been morphed into a toxic thing little trolls do. The SINGLE Well Done that is. The triple is a WELL KNOWN thing made popular by the current Complainer and rage against WG chief himself. Not the point , but the point people keep bringing up to support their argument. It's the Triple WD people that do it EVERY SINGLE TIME anyone on their own team dies. I've not only seen it but experienced it myself many times , especially when the weekend trolls come out. I've had it done to me after a 4 or 5 kill game when I am down half my team and focused by the CV and multiple ships and die. It's become the latest toxic troll. It's what to be expected when they all are fanbois of a certain streamer that feeds them non stop griefing and complaints and whines about WG. We ALL know who I am talking about. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather we knew that expressing frustration in game chat is something that shouldn't be done. I'd rather we stopped pretending that avoiding chat bans meant we weren't toxic gamers. If you have to vent with 'Well Done' to another player because they did something you didn't like...the toxic gamer is you. It's time to learn how to play nice with one another...
