This server aims to be different and wants people to express 'free speech' yet the admins seem to be anal about literally everything.

CNS says 'fuck the Irish' or something around those lines and is banned for racism, despite this not being racist whatsoever and CNS literally being Irish himself. His appeal was denied for some bloody reason (lol)

Kaligni was supposedly threatened with a ban after he called someone minging an 'idiot' in LOOC.

Both myself and Takyon (an Irishman) were kicked from the server for saying 'fuck the Scottish' and 'fuck the Irish' despite us both being from said countries. I was also kicked from the server for calling two people mongrels in LOOC after they had minge-pushing me nonstop. I was kicked instantly and the admin didn't even bother to comment.

I don't understand why there's some arbitrary no-tolerance policy despite half the staff having been racist in the discord themselves. It's a joke and a massive double standard.



fuck the irish
 
clearly calling someone a mongrel or saying that your own country is shit aren't on the same level as actual flaming. if you can't handle someone saying 'the Scottish are shit' then what the fuck are you doing on the internet?
 
Might I note, saying 'fuck the irish' is on the same level as 'fuck niggers' according to the staff team.
 
The staff have lots of miscommunications and even though the player had a 3 word description and DISCONNECTED mid situation, reconnected, tried to run again, we were the ones threatened with a ban and he was let leave the situation. Kek.
 
Freedom to express your opinion is widely different from freedom to say whatever the fuck you want. If you cannot understand that difference, then you should stop from every using 'my freedom of speech' again as an argument to say something.

You're completely right. People should be banned for saying 'fuck [insert home country/nationality]' or threatened to be banned for calling someone an idiot. Yes.

You're hilarious
 
Not a moderator, but for me the line would be at any form of insult in GOOC... it is GOOC, not your coffee chat over voice. Wrong chat for that kind of stuff.

The thing is also: we cannot smell if you are serious or kidding or trolling or anything in between. You are also broadcasting this to every single player on the server. And sorry, but there you are crossing a line for me.

I'm sure this was never the intent, to begin with, and if of course something that has to be improved upon on whoever's behalf that was.

Also please try to keep the discussion civil. Thank you!

Just in case anyone cant undersatnd irony this guy is being ironic

When we wrote the freedom policy we wanted to be sure players could be comfortable speaking their minds, because most of it is purely banter and holds no weight at all. Of course there are exceptions to it, for example. Players are visibly spamming slurs to cause trouble. Saying they hope you die, and defamation.

There's no justifications for that, so warning and banning players for saying fuck the irish is completely ridiculous. If our mods can not see whats banter and whats genuine, then we need them to understand that because we have a freedom to personal opinions, does not give you the right as a moderator to ban a player due to that personal opinion. It's abuse of the position. I will not stand for it.

You guys keep using eff the irish as a slur and use it to harass members, stop doing this and you wont be banned or warned. Why do you feel you're entitled to harass fellow WN members?
 
The rules need to be refined. Saying "don't be racist" is way too vague a comment because, as one can see on the internet in the year of our lord 2021, many many things can be seen as "genuinely racist" when it is, in fact, just a joke or not even racist at all.

Perhaps the rules need to be specified to "Don't use racist slurs in OOC chat." Hell, it may already be that, and if that's the case whoever oversees the moderators need to bring down the hammer and bonk some heads for being a bit too ban happy.

Global messages in OOC is not harassment of a member in the slightest.
 
I will note I'm glad admins are taking action on this, these minges/harassers are dutifully on notice.

Also willard:
Banned a few irishmen for slating the irish,
kicked Cabbo for saying mongrel,


@cabbo
careful what you say, they'll warn you for "baiting" and "slander" then change the rules in reflection of what you said; in a nice tidy paradox.
