    I just responded because i find it great fun to be super sarcastic to obvious bigot defenders.

    Some random shows up here and accuses Lag of making up numbers for some narrative? Come on. This guy's not worth the time.

    With that being said, I actually challenge anyone to find an example here in SC2 that these well constructed logical posts actually convinced them to changed their mind.

Stringent moderator action would actually drive away new players. If we were talking about Battlefield or Halo this would make sense.
    Oh no! The poor victimed racists, (sorry refugees), don't have other games to play.

    I call upon the admin staff to allow not only black and Jewish jokes, but also pedophilia role play in the game. Glory to SC2!

    While I don't agree with this person's ideas, I think banning someone for asking whether the current policy will kill the game is a draconian. And if I can't laugh about the "but mah freeze peach" threads here, it'd probably drive me to leave the site.

    Are you making the case that staff in general is too soft on bigoted content, or...?

    voss you don't need to argue with this dumbass or be a bitch to put him down. you've a ban button, right?! tf is wrong with you.

    tbh, this will just make the forums that much more different from the mod. it isn't just racists that are a problem. it's ppl being homophobic, transphobic, and sexist, things i all forgot.

    if you're REALLY going to clean up the mod, then it will probably die

    I have taken it upon myself to ban all staff members that take inappropriate actions against players who type #FreePalestine. You're welcome.

    You missed responding to my point about Twitter. Twitter is "farther along the slope" than sc2mafia. Is crusading for a small time game more important than defending the rights of the former President of the United States of America?

    I guess I conflated my interpretation of your definitions of "the internet" and "society". Maybe the better answer is, if you don't like being told what you can and can't say on the internet, don't use it? It's not up to me to prove that any internet moderation is bad for society. That's up to you. For me, I'm perfectly capable living my life without having to use racist slurs to win a game. I'm also okay not playing a game if I don't agree with the staff's moderation decisions.

    It also has a negative impact to society to be forced to interact with racist dribble. So one could call the arcade staff here heroes.

    Assuming you think banning VIP for more "mundane" things is the next step in this spooky slippery slope, why don't you take this free speech crusade to the Twitter platform? They're obviously worse than us.

    I can personally attest to not playing mafia because of the constant racism from the player base. Throughout my time in sc2 I’ve also found many players who have also stopped due to the racism, mostly from playing Cortex with them.

    When you eat at a restaurant and the food is bad, you don’t come back. You don’t talk to employees or the management about how the food sucked or whatever. You don’t try and fix the food. You just don’t come back. Have you considered for a moment that there may be a cause and effect link between the fact that lobbies take forever to fill up and the fact that there’s a very vocal minority in the community (and it is well established at this point that you are in a minority) that is actively spamming racist messages and dragging the quality of games down?

    Edit: Voss that last post was cringe maybe dont suggest that staff could ban people for voting them
    Sorry, I meant to invalidate Veliaire's slippery slope argument. Staff would never ban players for something like that. It would be a ridiculously successful attempt to kill the game quickly.

    The arcade isn't a protected realm of free speech ;). This also isn't Twitter with millions of millions of users interacting with each other over a wide variety of cultural topics. We're MAYBE hundreds that interact over a small game.

    Nice try at false equivalency though. If you don't like being banned for voting staff members in a game, don't play. I trust and applaud the arcade staff's decisions to draw the line on what they choose to moderate. Their efforts keep the game playable for the silent majority of users that don't want this distasteful behavior.

    And as an added bonus, we get dipsticks to create these asinine "but mah free speech" threads for others to dunk upon. Maybe that should be one of the aspects we promote here on sc2mafia.com

    Edit: him ignoring all your abuse and grief is him "not being anti mods for the sake of it" - ok, cool mate, whatever floats your narcissism.
    Feel free to hit me up in some dms. I'm not going to derail the thread over this topic.

    The classic slippery slope. We should ban people for using the word "stupid" and "dumb" too, right? Or maybe even when someone votes a staff member? YIKES.
