Right now the mod team is discussing spamming as a vio and we're considering condensing it into one vio. This means that spamming in unranked games will now be a community vio and thus against the rules, contrary to how it is currently moderated. It would also be moderated in sandbox, which it currently isn't.

Right now, we just want to get a consensus of how the site feels about this. Do you think spamming should be moderated in unranked + sandbox?

Should spamming be moderated in unranked and sandbox?

I believe that it should NOT be a violation in Sandbox but it should be in unranked Main lobby games

Also Sammie, hate speech ≠ spamming

Perhaps you should only make this thread in the Sandbox forums instead of here, if that's where you're considering extending it to. Doesn't really affect Main, as I've never seen it be a problem even in Unranked games due to Kicking.

spamming makes some people uncomfortable and it makes the game unpleasant , even in unranked. things like game throwing don't matter because it's unranked but if someone spewing hate speech is a vio then someone spamming incessantly should be too.

also some people's PC's might not be able to handle spamming. no one finds spamming fun except the person spamming.
