can someone please explain these threads to me I'm legit really confused
do you guys think it's ok to tell people to kill themselves?
if it's not, why is them being banned an issue?
if you think it shouldn't matter, RGL have made it clear that invite players are held to higher standards, and this is the 2nd offense. is it really that hard to not tell people to kill themselves, or at least apologise afterwards?

I think it's a pretty big false equivalence to act like typing "kys" is as bad as being racist or transphobic or something, sorta flattens out the difference between things and weakens your credibility, could just be me tho!

-rgl states in their rules that shittalk is allowed and not bannable
-b4nny provokes lolguy after killing him and starts to shittalk him
-lolguy types "kys" (3 (three) letters) in response, which has been shit-talk vernacular since the beginning of time
-rgl bans lolguy
can you see how this would make people upset

You gotta be kidding me, I can't even imagine the amount of "kys" or whatever other sort of shittalking gets dropped in chat on a daily basis in the whole gaming community.
We all get mad while playing, we all say bad stuff that we don't really mean.
I'm not saying it's ok to talk trash, especially tell somebody to kill himself, but doing it in a damn scrim that isn't even related to a RGL server or anything shouldn't lead to an actual league ban. It's pure madness

is it REALLY worth defending the right to tell people to kill themselves though? like just don't do it? then you dont get banned and you don't get told to kill yourself either

Bro what fucking hill are you trying to die on here I don't understand? Trash talk is literally allowed in RGL, KYS has been shit talk 101 since TF2 has been out.
They are literally digging thru logs to ban people

if you think it isn't, why not ban 50% of the community who has said anything similar or worse than that?

funny thing is that they literally do this. i have heard from an unnamed rgl admin that several members from the admin team would talk about how they "needed to find evidence to ban scratch" and would actively stalk his logstf page to find anything they could pass off as bannable.
this league is a fucking joke

I always thought the death of esea tf2 would birth something new, something better
It birthed a league where the admins act like secret police

While we're at it can we please ban anyone who says "die" in chat? If you really think about it that's basically the same as saying kys. This would make my rgl experience much better, thank you :)

wheres the consistency?
I'm actually weak the best part in this is sgc being the fatherly figure in the conversation saying, "Yeah! Yeah! Kill yourself over a video game"

This might not be so obvious to you, but there might be a difference between someone saying "Literally kill yourself, go fucking- go in the middle of the road, on the highway, and let a fucking semi run you over", as former RGL contributor stephanie did -- and someone typing a mere "kys" in a game chat and nothing more.

When did trash talking stop being allowed in video games? I feel like there was a major shift where harmless trash talk suddenly became taboo?
When I first started playing this game (I was 8 or 9) a man literally threatened to r*pe and kill me while I was on an achievement server and half the server rofld, fast forward to now dudes are getting banned for typing kys in a SCRIM??

If RGL isn't giving me servers to play on, then dont police what I say! I dont fucking care if you say if I'm using your plugin/config (free to use- btw!) I'm "held to a standard"- that's not how it works. Im playing privately on MY SERVER- my rules dude. You can police the matches but when it's time to scrim lay off the hammer.
It doesn't look good either that they've been stalking player logs for excuses to ban, I bet sigafoo will post trying to defend himself.

hey guys, at least the trains run on time? right?

I hope RGL is getting ready to ban everyone for saying phrases such as "kys" and "retard". The people who type these WORDS definitely mean this literally and are trying to cause mental harm/trauma to the other person.
Surely the banning of these HEINOUS actions will get us closer to a major, and isn't just targeting people because the admins dislike them or their circlejerk.
