Apparently it did... hence his posting on the forums. If it did not, it's a concern of his in which he's looking for people's insight.

Welcome to a forum, you post things here in regards to the topic at hand.

It's stupid thou, obviously nobody gets offended by racial terms, it's more of a "to ban the guy you have a grudge on" thing.

Let me tell you this, Paul.. if someone gets offended by racism in the game, it's scary to even think of what awaits them irl.

[Ignominy]

are you employed ward? or in some sort of school perhaps?

[cowPope]

okay, i don't have an answer to his question, but neither do you fucks. why change the fucking subject trying to defend the kid when all he wants is an answer? someone answer him please, and everyone else go to fucking trash talk.

Staff's policy has always been to issue bans or warnings only when they witness the offence in question. If someone said something racist in a different language, even when staff sees the text, if they don't know what the words actually mean, then they aren't really witnessing it. Even if someone were to try to translate it, that's still not enough on it's own; it'd be one person's word against another's.

Now before someone starts calling this a loophole and starts taking advantage of this as an example of why the zone's racism rules are flawed, the situation is the exact same as any other rule. If someone were to report a player for manipulating lag, but the staffer can't detect it, then he shouldn't take action. That's the same situation here, just with a different rule.

Are staffers supposed to be multi-lingual now?

i've been alive 21 years and haven't seen people calling each other racist names NEARLY as much as it happens on trench wars.. but that's just me

thats true, but u need to remember that there are alot of sheltered whiteboys, and 9 times out of 10 the parents are to blame for racism ... includind northeasterners, northern(usa), canadians that are most racist


im not including everyone in those areas but that seems to be where a big population of racist white ppl play ss from
