Been in jail the past few days.

Ironically, you can grief and troll all you want pretty much as long as you remain silent in chat. If you're super unlucky, you *might* be caught if the GM is in a bad mood and the reporters have you on stream or something. But otherwise? Totally abuseable report system that relies far too much on chat logs.

How do you know people are not getting banned for trolling but get banned for using inappropriate language? Isn't it just because almost no one bothers with reporting trolls?

I guess I’ll just stop talking in dungeons entirely and quit doing leveling dungeons with new players as healer. Don’t feel like helping people if the reward is jail time after some snowflake gets offended.

Being reported for hurt feels seems to be a thing that happens these days. I've never had issues with GMs because I usually stick to my FC/Friends. I only quip back when someone says something to me that I don't like. But then I clap back in such a passive way. Like... I am not swearing at you or saying unkind things about your mom (classless to do anyways) but then I'll get that one person that says "ENJOY YOUR BANLOL!" and I'm like "....you do know a GM can rewind the chat to see who instigated what, yeah?"

Blacklists should be limitless...

No matter what anyone says, you DESERVE to know the reason you are in jail, because it is technically a violation of your rights to your information. If you don't get a reason, then you need to file a complaint with the customer services, and ask them POLITELY, to give you the record. So long as they don't expose the person who reported you, then there is nothing wrong with getting the information.

Just please remember to treat them with decency. They are just doing a job, and working for Square Enix. Whatever happens, they do not have any control over. It's the higher ups that have the control.

I agree that SE should give more information regarding these kinds of complaints, but historically speaking they will not as it might reveal who reported you in some way. Weird logic, but that's how they do it.

I find threads like this incredibly sus when content exists like "Stroking the Haft" involving Hunberct Longhaft and his two catgirl "assistants" and the overtly sexual references a couple years ago in Heavensturn, among many other examples.

Plus a lot of these when details come out end up being a lot more than just a wordy dirty here or there.

But can you even imagine if VC was implemented in any kind of MMO? It’d basically turn into Overwatch.

ESO has it. I keep it off when I've ventured there.

Considering how many times my friend has trolled alliance roulettes as a tank and only been to gm jail once and it was directly after he said something in chat It's a pretty good bet that you will only get caught if you're chatting.

Everything else is deniable and can be chalked up to just being a bad player.

Definitely have to tiptoe like crazy if you want to have anything resembling a conversation that adults might have.

Guess for some it is impossible to imagine an adult conversation without swearwords?

Personally I never swear in public (and very rarely in private) and internet is public so I do not swear on internet too.

The only people I swear with are close friends and family - and we are most DEFINITELY not having adult conversations. We're talking about how Gaius' helmet horns look like he's... y'know... And what two races "merged" to make Lopporits. And how best to scream when you've hit your shin.

Yeah I seen some knock an unruly player down a peg or two, without one swear word. Wits over brawn.

TIL that there is a jail in FFXIV.
