Almost getting permabanned for "racism" wtf?

[ocnap]

Alright, so heres the deal.

On my server theres lots of people from one specific country which just acts completely childish. They ninja everything, and they're almost always rude.

I thought i'd be funny and post a comment in the trade chat saying something like "people from <country> need to grow a brain and some manners"

After i posted that some people from that country responded with hate (ofc).

Heres the thing. This one dude used some sort of chat recorder and kept spamming what i said all night. Now im banned because of racism.

He's still doing it too, all i did was say 1 thing. Now i'll probably get permabanned because of all the people from that country is reporting me.

What to do here?

[earthFlower]

nothing, they can see the chatlogs you won't get banned.

Learn to think before you act

[{CoReY}]

When you say "People from _________ Need to grow up " Instead of "(Specific) people from ___________ need to grow up" The first one relates to ALL people from that country, while the second specifies someone. You sir, are an idiot for calling out or even saying the country, just say their names next time.


That is like my calling "The 2dgreengiant family are fat and need to lose weight" Instead of saying "Bob from 2dgreengiant family IS fat and needs to lose weight"


Do not be ignorant.

Chatbox can't handle that many names.

What can i do about the guy spamming the log in trade getting people to report me?

To be honest I think you should be Banned for saying "People from ___________ ...." instead of beeing more specific as was mentioned 2 posts ago. What you did WAS racism and you should be banned therefore, atleast temporarily.

Buncha hardasses in here.

Blizz has some dumb policies. They ban a few people for stupid stuff like this, but yet it's their own "policy" not to individually ban botters.

Sorry for your misfortune, but yeah just be more careful with your words next time bud.

Go to realm "Drak Thul EU" and post "Slovaci jsou Madari" (Translate: Slovaks are Magyars - but almost nobody on that realm can speak English so you have to post it in Czech Language- Slovaci jsou Madari) into Trade Chat and enjoy your 24 hour ban
It is "nationalism" and it is against TOs of Blizzard's Products

I hope you get perma banned for saying that, ocnap.

[Trollblod]

I hope you get perma banned for saying that, ocnap.

I don't hope you're getting permabanned, but keep in mind, it's not nice to say such a thing. And it really is racism..

[Gash]

why do some ppl farm posts :/
i hate the new activity award stuff system -.-

[ToughCat]

it kinda is racism we got that in my server too and MOST from that country ninja is rude etc so let me guess which ppl u said Hungarians?


P.S i dont hate hungarians just most ppl on my server can say for example if somone is speaking wierd "Hungarians need to learn english " or " He is from Hun kick"'
there are morons in all countrys and good people in all countrys you should get a warning but no Perma ban and what do you mean by
"This one dude used some sort of chat recorder and kept spamming what i said all night"

[ocnap]

What i said was just for fun, not in a malicious way.

What i ment with the chat recording thing is that the guy copied what i said, made it into a macro and used that macro so it said "[1][general][my nick]: people from <country> need to grow a brain and some manners"
