If a rule put in place by the mods is only abused to try and get people banned/punished that they dislike then the rule is not very good and should be removed completely.

Harassment covers it's own clause and if someone wants to say any words not covered by the censor outside of games then the post should just be removed or then punished if they continue, but moderating HC in games is ridiculous and epicmafia shouldn't be a battleground where mods act as a shield for someone who feels offended about someone using a slur.

you have instances like the report i linked and the example given in this very paragraph where the issue arises. it's honestly ridiculous that 3 offenses of using predetermined slurs can get you the same type of ban that notorious users like ABC who spam on the forums. you can't really make people play nice or even really want to follow your rules and trying to force that where people who are either 1) unaware of the rule 2) don't hold the same social views as you are being banned or violated left and right is not the answer

The real solution is to demand video and/or audio proof demonstrating exactly how upset you are.

Every time someone bunches up my panties, I report them. God it feels so good. It's like being a judge and jury all by myself. I hold all of the power in my hands. As soon as you say a slur, I have you by the balls. If I like you, no big deal, whatever. Better not make me mad after you said a slur though, because I will end you right then and there. Don't aim a single unpleasant word in my direction, because the epicmafia report system is MY weapon, and I'm not afraid to use it.




that may honestly be the only reason people report eachother for HC, but if it gets people to stop doing it, whats the problem? lol

the goal is to get people to stop, no? yeah people "exploit" the system, but it is still helping mods push the agenda of getting hc reduced


it doesn't reduce it though

i care about hate speech which is why i want it to be dealt with better so you dont have people abusing it, but i guess im not very clear here and me giving an perpsective that is not just 'i hate everyone and anyone who uses hate speech' somehow makes me different

Retti says

hm well i think there's an objective problem when all HC reports boil down to revenge and just trying to get someone a violation, barring the odd exception that is almost never because surprisingly enough people, including tumblr users, are very spiteful


this is what i care about fwiw


i don't know why you care about HC but "don't care" about hate speech


Do I really have to tell you why

you do not get to designate what is and is not offensive to me.


By this logic anyone could complain about any 'trigger' word and it'd be a jumbled into the bad-words-not-to-say list.


yes, i see this all the time and any time i do i immediately give it a vio and clsoe the report as i drink my coffee. moderating in the morning always smells good. ha cha cha cha.

That's where you use discretion. There's a stark difference with self-harm jokes and "THIS POMEGRANATE TRIGGERS ME."
