Sekor Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 You can go into the chat box and create a new chat to limit to only your teammates, friends, etc. This allows you to turn off district chat and whispers, if you are having problems with specific people, hit them with that /ignore and go on about your day. It takes less energy to not care than to worry about it.

Excalibur! Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 (edited) Thats what you get to play those games. These kids dont know what is really toxic if they didnt play diablo 2 or warcraft 3 (private). People would say the nastiest insults to each other and never been a problem and we all kept playing and enjoying the game. If you try to "stop" toxicity it only gets stronger because players will retain their frustration to themselves lol. Edited July 15, 2018 by Excalibur!
SanityFlex Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 I can't edit the post since there's a video in it, but there's a bunch of good examples of why this is a stupid solution in this reddit post atm: "I got banned for saying my nationality..." In the end, this only matters to Ubi, because Siege wants to be taken seriously as an e-sport, and that requires them fitting into Twitch's rules of conduct. Otherwise streamers are just gonna panic constantly as people yell the n word and what not on their stream, since they get the punishment even tho they had nothing to do with it happening.
Sniperturtle Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 (edited) You don't want a word-police in your game, you don't want any police at all if it is possible - because once you start policing, where is it gonna end? Okay, now it is the stupid 13yo rager in chat throwing around with insults bigger than his pubic extremities, then it's the guy who uses a racial slur in a moment of anger (Pewdiepie anyone?) then goes on to someone making jokes over a nationality stereotype in chat, eventually anything someone may find offensive needs to be policed, i don't see anything healthy coming from this. If people want to rage - let them rage - not like you are going to prevent t-bagging/griefing/ghosting any time soon either. There is this notion of chivalry that existed strongly in this game in the beginning, and to some extend even today and it is absolutely great. But that does not mean that every player is up to it or values themselves so high - suppressing (actually "oppressing") them would be a very bad thing both long- and short-term. These demands for chat-policing would create an atmosphere where everyone has to be on their toes constantly about what they say, and if players have to bend their personality to be permitted to play a game it would likely end in many of them leaving rather than faking a false identity. Think of what you ask for, seriously. P.S.: @Dopefish I am especially shocked to see you get behind this. From watching your gameplay i have seen you put up many times with that sort of behaviour and you always managed a great way. It really gave your persona character and i thought you were way past these childish attempts of controlling expression. Edited July 15, 2018 by Sniperturtle 1

"toxic" and "nasty" are too subjective. most people can ignore and handle things they don't like in the chat without having the offender punished. 2

Nickolai Posted July 21, 2018 Posted July 21, 2018 I will be short and sweet: If you trash talk you are a certified b*tch. No excuses. I have disabled the VOIP and Chat. I only log on to play. I don't enjoy wasting my time arguing with some losers online.
Dopefish Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 Social features have cut down on toxic behavior in OverwatchBehavior outside Twitch can now lead to an indefinite ban

If enough people have done that to you to fill your entire ignore list, then I do apologize. well now all i do when i enter a mission is usually put the enemy on ignore right away so i don't have to hear their pm's on how im a bad silver and should not be in silver ........ the horror, a silver in silver district ....... where she belongs ... anyhoo , i then have less room for other issues like that, although i do delete them (if i remember to) from ignore after the mission and if not, i clear out my ignore list when it gets full (remove all and start over)
vsb Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 if only there was a way to not reply to ingame chat some kind of thought process that intentionally stops any response
CookiePuss Posted July 22, 2018 Posted July 22, 2018 @ShaiShai Yeah I hate golds who act like that. The idiots dont realize that if golds could only play with other golds, we'd never have full districts, Also, kudos to you for not just stomping on noobs in bronze district. If you ever play Jericho hmu, I'll group with you. 1
