Is it a /reportable offence when someone in level or crafting chat etc. begins inciting argument by bringing up such things as religion and politics? Many people have strong feelings in those areas and it never takes long before a chatwide yelling match has begun. Not that reporting seems to do much but it at least makes me feel like something *should* be done.
I for one play this game to enjoy myself and sometimes I have to log out or turn off all my chat channels because I also have strong feelings in those areas and I really can't handle it; it makes me very angry.
People get reported for swearing or spamming, and in my opinion those things aren't nearly as offensive as some of the things some people come up with. I have toons on 3 different servers and some servers are definitley worse than others.
hehe...hate to be blunt but - welcome to the internet. I've already accepted that there are people who i perceive as whacko with 110% polar opposite views on the entire world than me...all over the place! Most of the time the most inane of comments are from people who if you met them in real life, wouldn't hold any significance to you anyway. So I try n let it go :) If it truly bugs you *that* much though I would just use ignore. I mean - no loss in never talking to them again right? :D
NEver know what they can ban though. I mean they ban peopel for language that the filter WILL block. I understand if people alter words or type other more obscure swears that the filter doesn't pick up on. But some people blatently report people who say stuff that they enabled them to say. The internet is ******* nuts :p ;)
