Death Warrant Forums

Wow. I have been permanently banned from the Epic forums and it hadn't even occurred to me that what I posted might be controversial or problematic.

In a forum post I'd mentioned that I had made a map called CTF-Dagnys-Tubes-of-Spam and that a reviewer described it as being "more narrow than a two year old vagina".

Without any warning or admonishment at all, I received a perma-ban with the comment, "Pedophilia is not a joke."

Wow! Is anyone reading this actually offended by such a comment and does it even suggest pedophilia? Granted it's an off-color comment, but is it really ban-worthy? I can understand having a post edited or deleted for such a comment and a warning issued to the poster, but a perma-ban for a productive member of a discussion forum with a complete lack of previous bad behavior seems a little stiff in this case, don't you think?

Sheesh, I guess some people need to turn down their sensitivity meters. It's getting to the point where we might as well just strike the already heavily-neutered First Amendment out of our nation's constitution and declare that we will have government regulated speech and that certain types of speech will be criminal.

Yeah, that's outrageous.

My posting the comment is outrageous, or the ban is outrageous?

I think it's pretty dumb to have outright banned you for that. They should've removed it from your post and given you a warning, but whatever. I think it's kind of inappropriate too, but I'm not going to lose sleep over it.

lol.

Holy sh1t that's some way to call it lol. Hell inappropiate, but i could think of tons more ways to handle it instead of banning. You use the 'ban' option if a person occurs to be troublesome for the community.

-Moderator that banned-

"Wow what a sicko for making a comment like that. Oh well back to making games about mass killings and destruction!"



LOL Some people need to get a life!

wow that really is bullshit... if you were the one saying it I can understand but you were quoting a review of the map itsn ot your words.

Some people really need to get out more.

Their banning you was outrageous, I think the whole situation is kinda funny.

I don't think it's worth getting worked up over.

Make a new account. If you can't because of an IP block, use a proxy.
