INAPPROPRIATE LANGUAGE OR BEHAVIOUR
We want our community to be fun and welcoming for all our players, so text that is considered inappropriate should not be used in our games. To be clear:
- It is against the rules to use chat that is likely to upset other players, using slurs, slang words and other inappropriate phrases that target specific people or groups
- Unacceptable chat includes bullying and harassment. We expect all players to treat each other with respect, and targeted ‘chat’ attacks between players will not be tolerated
- A small number of topics are not appropriate to be discussed in our games. These include sexual crimes, child abuse, explicit sexual content, torture, animal cruelty, illegal drugs, violence and terrorism
- Spamming/flooding the chat window. By this, we mean to fill the chat window with text that is not related to game play
- It is also against the rules to regularly and persistently use a lot of swear/cuss words
We understand that players may use the odd ‘bad word’ from time to time. Nobody will get into trouble for light swearing; but if the language used is very strong and persistent we may apply a mute to your account.
Any player who may feel uncomfortable can use their Ignore List against players who are causing offense, or apply chat filters to automatically block the majority of well-known swear/cuss words.
