    Staff get enough tickets without having to deal with people swearing like sailors on top of it.

    Thank you for your candid response. I do see your point of view from an administrative stand point.

    I will endeavour to be quietly dis-satisfied with the situation :p

    Ive already read through these... Seems like I'm not the only player who has felt this way about the matter. But as I said above, I will simply bite my tongue.

    I have however seen that the staff on MyM have repeatedly said that open chat is not the place to dicuss sexuality, gender, race, religion or politics, so maybe it should be an actual rule?

    There are plenty of unspoken but widely known rules, there's plenty of rules we don't state that are enforced, such as don't share your password, although we don't enforce that, common sense does

    Whilst this may be the case, this topic has clearly come up more than once, simply adding a line to rules would make it crystal clear, that was all that I was suggesting

    I still think the whole banned words thing needs redoing

    This is what is referred to as 'convergence'. Some social justice warrior is convinced that he has to make an example and 'fight the good fight'.

    I don't talk about my sex life in chat. You don't need 'special rules' for discussing your own sex life in chat. Stop being a selfish special snowflake and play the darned game.

    Calling this 'discrimination' is stupid. You don't need to be talking about who you did last weekend, or how you did them, and such chat, whether straight, gay, beastial, statues, your hand, or a corpse, should be valid grounds for at least a temporary ban, let alone completely appropriate for screening unless the word has to be used for other minecraft-appropriate chat (straight, bone, and grass, for example)[DOUBLEPOST=1460963581][/DOUBLEPOST]
    That's all you want NOW. and then, after they give in, what are you going to demand NEXT?

    At no point was I discussing my sex life, and if you think someone's sexuality only ever comes into conversation when they are discussing their sordid affairs of a Friday night fumble then you are sadly mistaken. You have taken that entirely out of context...[DOUBLEPOST=1460967510,1460966127][/DOUBLEPOST]
    It was a suggestion, not a demand.[DOUBLEPOST=1460967931][/DOUBLEPOST]
    At no point have I nor anyone else whom has stated their opinion on this matter claimed to be some sort of social justice warrior.

    Your entire post seems to have been the least thought out in this entire thread.....

    I can see what he means but the execution was done wrong this is why it sparked such outrage, however i do believe that the banned item list does need updating to bring it to 2016 not 1995
