<Subject>:
People that verbally abuse others after being told to stop. they need to be banned.
<Body>:
Suggestion Idea:
Many people on here are verbally abusive to others (see threads
here (about vanMar) and
here (about Kamchatka) ) and people that do that need to be removed/banned because many people are offended of others that talk like these two (especially by some of what vanMar was saying)
Specifics:
Give them one warning, then Ban people that verbally abuse others. Dont let them come back. Then we wont have to worry about people like the two mentioned above.
Why it is needed:
Make the CC community more userfriendly and accomodating to ALL members.
Priority** (1-5):
5
PS: dont say "just use the ignore feature" because all that does is blocks them from your own games. i think they should be removed completely so they dont do this to others. jsut because they cant be mean to you doesnt mean they will stop bothering others.

Then why make that a poll option then? lol You realize your last two options are the same, correct?

Whats the difference of typing a swear word with * in place of letters or just typing it with the letters? Calling someone an ass or an a** is the same thing isn't it?

I agree the only place it should be allowed is flame wars mainly because it's for flaming people

About the games: if someone is abusive, put them on ignore. End of problems.
But i think the forum is a problem here.
People curse and swear a lot outside the flame forum.
I don't like the current solution(moving the thread with foul language to the flame wars)
I think the slolution should be this:
1. time:Forum ban 24 hours
2. time:forum ban 5 days
3. time: Forum ban 2 weeks
4. time:Forum ban 4 life
And deleting the post that is abusive
And this doesn't have to be only for fol language, it can be for not using the search engine(asking the sumatra-brunei border question for example).
That would bring some order here.

One of the things I like most about this site is tthe freedom of speach. On one other forum I got a letter from the mod for calling someone "dumb". While I am no fan of needless cursing, IMO it is better to allow an odd curse then to generate paranoia (Omg I used the word f*ck three times in the post. WILL I GET BANNED

). Bans should be reserved for guys like Ukrainian who aren't interested in games at all, but insteadspend all their time abusing other players. As for people who swear too much and people who don't want to play them - that is what feedbacks and ignore button are for.

No offence but
f*ck off WCA - language lets us express ourselves and is swearing not a part of that - I certainly find it very useful
And just think about all the hilarious threads we've had because of it - just check out this one which is a link to others.:

This is a simpleton's solution to being offended. Toughen the f*ck up, and quit being so easily offended.

I think that if you just burning the person (eg. YOU FUCKING SUCK) then its ok. The problem arises when they start constantly sending you pm's, or being racist/anti-semetic, in which case they should be punished for there behavior.
