USA uses ESRB. The Teen rating is 13+.

That is actually only for the game itself, and what the developers put into it. Underneath any of those rating "seals" it says "Online interactions not rated".

While this conversation does seem unfair it seems you are misunderstanding something. His answers were impartial and gave you options on how to avoid situations like theses. When you play with an online community no one is considered special. NO ONE can be really be told what to do, what to say, or how to act. There are however proper steps that needs to be taken by a company to close an account for violation of their terms of use.

I myself have worked as a GM for several games and while people may not agree as a GM there are certain things that they can't type as much as we want to. IF you want to have a GM take immediate action you must have and quote;

What part of the terms of use that is being violated.

How is it being violated.

When / where it was violated.

If you give them a broad complain with out reference it would be a she a waste of time and will just give you a generic answer.

As you can see by previous responses, examples SE does warn that chat filters may not be in place.

Another thing to consider is what inappropriate language is 13+ with today's society is almost the same as adult. You can always file a formal complain however chances are that if you don't give proper examples, chat logs, ect you would just be branded as some over protective parent or spoiled brat. Unless multiple complains are filed, which to be honest it's better to just black list them than waste your time, you better communicate with others and file a complain around the same time in order to be effective.

Keep in mind that common sense is a dying trait, most people are idiots one way or another, and in business money talks. I f your going to file a complain evidence is all that matters specially when it involves terms of use.

The report did, of course, include many detailed examples with timestamps and quotes. I am not here to name and shame anyone (give or take the GM named in the post, but this is my only way of providing such feedback - and Square already has access to the ticket with its full details), and I'm definitely not here to repeat that which was too obscene to say in the first place.

[ManuelBravo]

While time stamps were mentioned it's kind of hard to judge on text alone. To be impartial it would be nice to see the screen shots to make sure nothing was omitted. People in forums do tend to go over board with their complains and most are altered.

I'll be the one to say it - real life teens aren't rated T. You shouldn't erp in the Novice Network, but teens were probably exposed to a lot more than people here seem to give them credit for.

This game has consistency issues with its GMs that need to be addressed because I've known people who have been banned for plain swearing when we have a filter but then some GMs will overlook targeted harassment (that includes swearing) and publicized sexual content.

look up the tos, there being a profanity filter doesn't justify swearing. I don't report people, but my g/f at one point last April got a warning on her using a c word after she had anxiety due to being bullied over her tanking.

i personally don't report swearing, but some ppl do, it is against the ToS.


I agree with you on the open erp. WoW moonguard was known for it, no one says anything if you report it gm don't do much of anything.

No Offense, but aren't you going a weee bit SJW on the novice network? I'm not on your server and I'm not a mentor, but from reading your interactions with the GM I think your going all SJW on things you perceive should or shouldn't be talked about, how everybody should act in accordance to your sensitivity and if they don't act the way you want them you punish them or report them.

Just from reading I have to side with the GM on this, he did what is appropriate by considering "other" people's sensitivities and not just yours.

It sounds like the moderators are doing their job. You're wanting them to do a job you THINK you have.

A small sample of people from your server have bothered to find this thread and fill us in on your position. I'm sure the Novice Network don't need you. Maybe leave the moderation to the moderators? Or people who can separate emotions from duty?
