this isnt a complaint and it is epicmafia related (words we can and can't use ingame)

seeing as though i just got perma banned for using the phrase "mentally challenged" as an insult, can you mods create an official list of words/phrases that are HC?

also mods should not be allowed to self-moderate HC reports anymore because that's stupid. if one mod is offended by something they just auto-HC it when it's not even HC

should mods be allowed to self-moderate HC reports?

Like, he literally got a vio for saying "Every single forum poster is rtarded"


so is saying "This game is tarded" also a violation?

like, is idiot allowed? technically that's an insult, and all insults are unnecessary on a mafia game website, and it's based on that person's mental capabilities


the fact that you still equate mental disabilities with low intelligence just shows how little you understand mental illness.

being disabled doesn't make you stupid.


the fact that you equate mental disability with mental illness actually makes you sound more ignorant than them

does it even matter if we don't let them self-moderate HC

they'll just get their butt-buddies to vote for a violation with them

Instead of talking about giving people violations to sate some sense of justice that has no actual real world effect because only poor people who use tumblr care let's adopt dogs from Pompeii: http://www.icanidipompei.com/italiano/i_cani_di_pompei.html

you deserve what you get. cyberbully is the worst form of bullying because the bully has no reproductions for their actions whatsoever, and that needs to change. Cyberbullying should be a crime.


cant believe those poor bullies will never have children

connor, if the hc vio was moderated this strictly 4 years ago every single active forum poster would've gotten banned


Yea, this is him acting out his Tumblrite indoctrination. You should see how he felt about my views on transexuals.

They haven't gone that far yet because they're still struggling to justify banning the "r-word".

i am describing the rule, what it means and how it is supposed to be handled.

i am not making an argument about how fair or unfair it is, how hypocritical it is or would be for some moderators to hand out violations.

it is not relevant to this discussion. the rule exists and will continue to exist. i don't think anyone can really change that

This is not inherently a bad thing.

My only problem is that mafia is inherently an emotional and competitive game and its gotten to the point that everything is so overmoderated that youre expected to be like 'good job mate' when someone has completely manipulated you.

Also those emotions translate to the forums too, anyone whos played any sports irl know the shttalking that goes on.

you're just trying to get the mods to post HC words. nice try dude.


lol what kind of r-etard would fall for that


Can we bring up the fact that this hasn't been vio'd despite all the mods arguing in favor doing so for saying "mentally challenged"?

i agree that warning someone who has already broken a rule twice (and more if you go digging) is a good idea. right up there with giving someone four notes


one of the vios was literally "considering how rtarded everyone on the forums is" or something

one was "player x you play like a f^g" (the player was not offended, didn't report)

https://epicmafia.com/report/162416 < this is the third, she calls someone who was clearly a banned user throwing autustic.


the fact that any of those got vio'd / noted is stupid

This doesn't matter in the face of protecting PC idealisms to the point of disregarding reality.

if it's going to be this strict the rules should be more clear about what's considered HC
