Do you think this was wrong?

Game 5882411

2009-11-22 12:19:27 - StephenB: Team 1, FUCK YEAH! Coming again, to save the mother fucking day yeah, Team 1, FUCK YEAH! Freedom is the only way yeah, Terrorist your game is through cause now you have to answer too, Team 1, FUCK YEAH! So lick my butt and suck on my balls.


I thought I was only joking but 2 of my teammembers thought it was very wrong. They stated so in game chat.

2009-11-22 12:46:39 - eddie2: sorry u lot we are not part of these comments first time in team game

2009-11-23 08:15:58 - jmarcotte: I concur with eddie2.....I haven't seen Team America, but your comments do seem rather off the wall, StephenB. gg Team 1.....we had good positioning to start and good luck with the dice - it's always very difficult to come back in a no spoils game.


I also received a PM...

hi stephen sorz about this last night but think u need to give them an appology just say buzzing about the win as if they report they could get u kicked out of games and cancel membership

So yeah, like the title asks, do you think what I wrote was wrong? What are your thoughts on what should be said in game chat?

Oh and to make me look like a nicer guy: I'm sorry if I offended anyone, I realise now that i do not know the age of my teammates and opponents.

Time to get some new partners that aren't complete douche nozzles

[thegreekdog]

Not only do I find nothing wrong with this, I applaud it. There, see? Applause.

[jefjef]

Let me introduce you to my friend FOE.

[scipioafricanus1]

little tacky but not a big deal. I'm more offended by the fact that you self censored the word f*ck....

[Aradhus]

The forum censors the word fuck...genius...

[neanderpaul14]

f*ck


(Edit) Huh it does.

[scipioafricanus1]

that's odd. I've seen it on here without modification and could have sworn I'd done it myself. I'll look around for an example. Maybe I'm just crazy though.

It can be done quite easily. See the first post.

I don't personally have any problem with this, and you wouldn't get in trouble for having it in game chat (usually), but posting it here in the forum might be a different story.

Hell, I don't even know what the letter of the law is around here. It's like a moving target. And since the decisions on punishments are never made public, we're all in the dark as to what is ok and what is not.

The absolute best thing however, is when a player jumps into game-chat crotch thrusting in anticipation of certain and total game domination and then... hypothetically... perhaps one could even add theoretically as well... loses the game.

Now THAT rocks.

Wow... I can't believe I just noticed that

Yeah, that was a bit slow of you...

Unfortunately, the typed medium doesn't pass emotion well...and therein lies the problem. About the only thing you could've done was to make sure they understood it was a joking thing by including such a statement (which ruins the joke, of course). Other than that, I didn't see it as a particularly big deal, but like I said...if you want to make sure.

[KraphtOne]

Time to get some new partners that aren't complete douche nozzles

literally typed my exact thought... except in place of douche nozzles i was thinking terrorists

[FlyingElf]

People are too uptight in general...meh...I find no problem with these statements.

It is always wrong to assume that some random stranger on the internet will understand your personal humor.

What is seriously wrong, is that you took the time to find out if using your freedom of speech, was acceptable behavior.
I am pretty sure that CC is not a 3rd world dictatorship, that shoots it's people, when they speak their minds. Then again the removal of flame wars, seems to contradict the supposed freedom of speech we are supposed to have.
Hmmmmm...

<Insert random continues rant here>

Fvck em if they can't take a joke.. that's what I say!

The removal of flame wars is not in any way related to U.S. Constitutional freedom of speech. As well, what he asked is perfectly legitimate because even when freedom of speech IS involved, there are still repercussions when someone misuses it in egregious ways.

I feel that pompousness like that which you are displaying, by using words like egregious , is unneeded. Perhaps you need to put away the dictionary.

I apologize for coming across as being pompous. I don't believe I am, though I'm obviously biased in that interpretation. That's just the way I talk (if you hang around the fora for a while, you'll see it's just "me"). What can I say...I read a lot, and that has increased my vocabulary, plus I believe in the specificity of words and phrases.

Oh, and it wouldn't be a dictionary, it would be a thesaurus (ok, that was pompous <laughing>).
