Name Calling / Abusive Chat

[IronMike]

Apparently dear Friends,

 

it has become some kind of attitude on the server that name calling in the chat is ok. Let me tell you, as firmly as I can:

It is not!

The older admins haven't been flying much lately on the server, but we will order every admin now to

ban everyone for abusive name calling / chat for 3 days - no exceptions.

The DCS Community is a very mature community, and we have always seperated ourselves from other gaming communities because of that.

We don't mind friends joking with each other, but accusations and abusive chat in any kind or form have no place here. Even if you get teamkilled, even if you think that the other guy behaved like a complete a-hole, set an example, be smarter, because if he is abusing you, he will get banned, and you will keep enjoying flying on our server. Even if no admin is present at that time, tell us about it, make a screenshot, and we will deal with it as soon as we are back online.

We like to swear, too, we always did, but there is a place for everything and the context and the tone make the music, I can't stress that enough. If you just go by ordinary manners and logic, I am sure you will find no doubt in that.

We know also that most of you don't mean harm, that it is a competitive environment - all that is fine, but all that competitiveness can exist without abusive name calling and chat, too. Like I said, we're not stupid and we won't now ban right and left if someone uses a foul word, but like I said, I think you all understand what I mean.

That being said, we also like to thank most of you who excell at brilliant and friendly behaviour on our server and in the community time and time again, for your patience that you show newer guys, for your attention towards each other and your preparedness to help so generosly as most of you do. We couldn't be luckier with any other community and we are very grateful for that!

Thank you all, again, and S!
