Account warning with almost no information.

I haven't had any negative interactions with people in the game, that was the whole point. Thanks for assuming I'm lying about all this.

It's not necessarily you having a negative interaction with someone. You might have been joking around with a friend in /say and a passing player might have taken offense at what was said because they lacked context.

Warnings are just that - a warning ("please remember that there are other players present and be careful about language choice"). If the GMs had felt you said something inappropriate with ill intent, I doubt it would have been just a warning. If this was the only time you've been contacted by GMs over something said/done, it's not worth the worry.

The thing is as the rules are written it doesn't matter if you think you are being negative in interactions with others in the game. All that matters is did some other person feel you were having a negative interaction with someone and feel it enough to report.

This is why I won't join a FC that I or my best friend don't own and control who is in. I have a very dry and sarcastic sense of humor that could easily offend someone. Better to keep to myself and a select few others.

I got smacked with a suspension on here because I told someone that nobody gives a flying F about their ultimate clears....that was the only time I've had that happen. Never received a warning in game, mostly because I don't talk much other than the odd quip about something, or direct messaging/LS/FC chat with very few people.

My other account got smacked on here for telling people Yoshi-P isn't infallible and makes mistakes and that the dev team is wrong about MCH performance in HW.

It happens. Forum community was WAAAAAY different then.

You can get banned - or could - for slander on here, for being direct with someone. It's why I always word everything with "seems", etc.. I don't talk in reality like a lot of my forum posts. I heavily edit just about every single one, or go back over something before posting to make sure something isn't accusatory in an argument, for example. Some users used to get banned for "profanity" for using curse words on the forum too.

The problem with ToS enforcement, to me, is it seems to vary so wildly, you never really know what's safe or not, so I take the better safe than sorry route. Still got a warning in-game though.

I will never understand how or why profanity is even forbidden by the ToS when there is an optional profanity filter in the game options and multiple NPCs in the game curse and some of it is even voice acted. Double standards if you ask me. Too many easily offended little babies in this community and a lot of the moderation seems to be selective.

Users like to tell others a profanity filter doesn't excuse the use of the words. Generally, I think the only people reporting for the casual, or occasional, use of a curse word are doing it precisely because they know GMs might ban for it.

Here's some information. You do not know how to talk to people in a respectful manner and SquareEnix said play games win your respective prize.

Try being a better person if possible.

And you not supporting questionable people.
