The servers get a lot of traffic, from serverjumpers to people that just want to play pb,ze,mg e.t.c

Some don't read the rules and start being racist. Or just type out a single racist word and get banned for it. Hell, some of them might even be normal people. They might do it because of it being common via chatting with friends or smt.

In my opinion if we get a plugin to not show messages with "n****r" or "n***a". It would be a lot easier to deal with the people that are purposely being douche.

(sorry if you don't understand anything, didn't have my coffee yet :()

PS It would stop people that are racist from not getting a ban, example:

If they're racist, they deserve a ban. It's their own fault if they don't read the rules.

That's his name.

If they deserve a ban. Why don't the people that are racist, but not reported or seen by admin get away with it?

If it doesn't offend anyone on the server at that time then there's no one willing to report. The racism rule is in place to protect people not the server from racism lol.

They might not know how to report. Or if you can report at all.

If the word is taboo. Why say it at all?

Reject player complaints if they just say it once and get a warning after that to stop. Accept if they spamm it and don't read the warnings the player gave him

If we had that plug-in I wouldn't even be banning half the amount of people, where's the fun in that?

Well, perhaps those players that are racist, but not bad dudes could actually play in the server. Instead of getting banned for saying it once or twice without warnings.

Censoring doesn't solve the issue, banning does (temporarily).

How can you be sure it won't solve the issue? Obviously people with the intent to be racist & trolly will still do it and later get banned for it. But others that let it slip due to how the socialize in real life won't.

Honestly in all fairness its your fault for being ignorant and just skipping the motd.

If we had a plugin that prevented racism, then the admins would be loosing out on their daily ban nutrition.

But seriously, not 1 server I know allows racism. So its their own ignorance for saying it in the first place.

Not always works D:

Also, in my opinion, racism bothers no one who posted in the thread. Because if it's not fine to say it, why not censor it? Wouldn't it cause a lot less trouble in the end?

People would just bypass it by saying similar things, for example replacing 'i' with '1' and 'o' with '0' etc.
Too easy to bypass banned words really.

Well, we can't help that. But that would equal as straight out ban for being a smartass. What we could do is censor those two words and keep 50% of the racism off the servers.

I fail to see how censoring will keep racism off the server, the minor few who think racism is acceptable won't stop because it is censored

We won't know until we try it out? In my opinion, it will keep most racist words off the server.

1. There are so many variations of the word that it would be extremely easy to bypass.
2. People could use their mics just as easily.

We won't know if allowing aimbot and wallhacks on our servers would be fun without trying?

It's a pointless plugin, the people saying racist remarks are gonna say it anyways.

Also its more than just one word guys, didn't someone try asking for something like this before and it failed?

People don't even need to say the word to be racist.

It's a racist term but you could be as easily racist without using the word at all.

We've tried an aimbot server.

It was massive fun.

Just saying.

WHAT IF, WE PROVIDE A SERVER WHERE PEOPLE CAN SCRIPT (THROUGH A PRE-SPECIFIED API) THEIR OWN AIMBOTS/HACKS OF WHATEVER KIND, AND DO HACK VS HACK.

I am surprised nobody brought up the fact that a lot of times racism occurs over the mic and not through just text. So really even if you had a plugin you would only remove text racism when often it occurs through mic.

Sorry, I suppose the thread name is misleading. It won't stop racism at all. But it will stop randomies from writing a phrase with a racist word in it. Because most of the players that are banned, are banned because of a single word they might write without thinking.

It really just seems that no one is really hurt by the word. Most of ya just want to ban people for it.
