Simple suggestion: Ban racists.
Ymeogamaouas:
You are close with 1 and 3.
Also include there the fact that I like southpark and follow the motto that if you allow for one thing then you should allow everything. I dont suggest that there should be NO punishment for racism (though in my opinion we should involve ourselves with serious racism and not silly just talking internet racism) but that if there IS punishment for racism and foul language then it should be for everyone and not just for those we (you, me, the devs etch) like but every aspect of it.
OskaRus:
OMG such a flame! I think this game has more pressing matters to discuss and anyways bullshit costs nothing as it is worth even racist one. (not like brahmin shit which is precious commodity)
Surf:
Ghosthack is right. Let alone that we HAVE such a big thread of discussion (and it's not the first one) shows something about some individuals of our playerbase. Jovanka had some good points in her last posts, Bulldog too.
No one has something against it if you stand in Redding or wherever and tell the local sherrif "that mutants are fucking stupid", or your character doesnt want to travel to Necropolis because there are "the stinking ghouls" or such. There is no need nor a neccesarity to yell "fucking polack" "I rape your mother" and other immature shit on one each other and I think I will handle such things in the next time much harsher and will look more for that.
Enzo:
I see... we will be übercorrect, like whole Europe... even if I hate nazis and racism and any kind of discrimination, I dont understand those "inquisitors" who needs to punish everyone, censore everything and enforce every little rule or law, even if it is not necessary...
as already mentioned by some other people, if you feel insulted so much by some cursing kids, there is something wrong with your self-esteem...
I quit this discussion with this very last post, because it makes me sick...

Yes it is hostile speech directed towards other players and has nothing to do with so called wasteland feel.

Those avatars are the players ingame so yes of course its directed at them/whoever, there are humans in Fallout 1 and 2, there are:
Retards, racists, genocidal maniacs etc...
So saying such vulgar words don't exist in a Wasteland as does in RL, where law is ungoverned except by whoever has a gun or knows how to use one better is completely ... hmm retarded?
BTW, notice how the devs and GMs are ignoring the constant trolling remarks of Bulldog just because "He is anti-racsist" calling people trolls and idiots and such which for anyone else would immediately be given a "Shut up or ban" Sticker most likely.
Your lucky to have such a playerbase that wouldn't ultimately quit because of the extreme challenges as more than 90% of the at least "Generaly well-off people who can afford computers" population are complete pussies who wouldn't last in this game for 5 minutes because of constant-death or greifing of other players or racial slurs etc.... It shows toughness, and loyalty to the game "for the most part" anyways...
As said before... I don't have a problem with racism, it shouldn't be bannable unless continuosly harrassing and should just deal with it like every other player who' been killed be a russian or polish dude.... or anyone else ;)
