Instead of banning a person when he posts something offensive why not hide the post only?

[golden5648 1,686]

Whats my idea? It's that whenever someone floods or swears on the game chat why not even make that post appear?

 

Maybe you don't understand me, here are 2 examples:

 

*******

 

Current system of banning people: (On game chat)

 

golden5648: Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooray

Player golden5648 has been banned for flood, Reason: Blaha bahk blah...

 

 

 

So this is what happens, I am suggesting that why only make these posts which break the rules appear on chat? It should be like this... (I have many examples)

 

 

Golden5648: fgnkfgjknfkgdfdfgkngdfkdflsfsljndf 

Your message has been failed to be posted on the chat, Reason: Flood

 

It means that the post won't even appear on the chat since it has broken the rules, no one would be able to view the post.

 

 

golden5648: (Please don't take the swearing seriously) **** YOU!!!

Your message has been failed to be posted on the chat, Reason: Swearing

 

So this is what I am saying, whenever somebody posts something which breaks the rules, the message won't appear on chat. 

 

Advantages: On battle chats players highly use swear words, if this update joins the game no one would be able to swear. This will also result in the end of swear fights.

 

Mods can sip more coffee  :ph34r: They would have more chances for playing instead of joining a battle and banning.

 

********

 

Which type of posts would not appear on chat? 

 

––––> Posts which contain a letter repeated 8 times in a row. (Flood)

Those posts which are just gibberish (like ghgdhkdkbgkhkdjfjkgljkdjg)

Those posts which contain a swear word or a ****, ******.

 

 

 

Thanks guys :)

Great idea this will make the game a lot less...umm...angry!

[dilsharox 2,395]

good idea & if a player gets banned for violating forum rules that player should only be banned from the forum & not from chatting in the game

[kayitsiz 621]

Most of the rules cannot be done with that way.

That's not how it works. In the example you provided your post would most likely be hidden with no consequences. If you did it 3-5 times in a row, you would get a forum warning. You only get a ban if you got warnings for flood before or if the amount of flood is seriously huge, like 10+ flood posts in a row.

Well looks like thats the end of this discussion.

[i200000 717]

This is a very good system, nothing to change.

Not really. I still support the idea of not allowing unacceptable text (words/symbol combinations) to be posted, as it would lower the amount of violations we have to deal with. Like the famous saying "Prevention is better than treatment"

Please note that I am talking about game chat, not about the forums. :)

Why don't we just cut the internet off then :/

I don't drink coffee anyway sir. :ph34r:

 

There are so many ways someone could get around this system, just like they currently get around the anti-flood, the anti-flood timer, and the system censoring.

 

Sorry, but it won't work as well as you think, there would still be a huge need for Moderation. :)

[Taco 2,820]

Although this seems like a great idea, it's really not in perspective.

 

As said above numerous times, players will find ways to bypass the system to insult other players.

 

The only way to truly end chat violations is to not even have a chat, that is the ONLY thing that we can do, but that most likely will not happen.

 

The current system is the best that can be achieved at this time, although what was tried before with locking the Chat Violators section was a good experiment, more players were getting away with violations, which convinced developers to re open the section.

 

Please, if you are uncomfortable with seeing insults or racism, then please turn your chat off in the settings, it's the only thing you can do to prevent this.

your idea is good but its difficult to hide the post simply until the player get ban,that's why developers made new anti flood system

 

http://en.tankiforum.com/index.php?showtopic=216013&page=1

most flood warn,ban was done by automatic system

 

And for hiding  offense word its also difficult because in this game different cultural,religious,languages players are playing so if a word its profanity in one language but its not offensive in another language that's why moderators need to maintain order in chat

I hope you understand :) :) :)

I know that there is extreme need for moderation, as well as players would still have ways of abusing people...

 

But still, flooding and the swearing problem can be solved. Many players also don't know that if you type 8-10 same letters in a row you would get warned/banned.

And yes, you are right that many swear words can have another meaning on other languages, but if anybody is talking on another language and one word is abusive for our language he would get banned. And it would be hard for that innocent guy to explain to the admin that he didn't swear actually.

[Taco 2,820]

I really do not agree with this since the system punishes fast typers unfairly.

 

This has happened numerous amounts of times to me.

 

To keep this in perspective, the anti-flood system let's through people who spam random characters, but they do punish fast typers.

 

By fast typing, I am not referring to the lobby chat, I am referring to players talking in battles.

 

Since there is no anti-flood timer in battle chats, fast typers are more prone to be punished.

 

Another thing, last week I had a keyboard glitch, and I was banned by the system for a day without any warning.

 

The last time I received a flood ban / warn was about two months ago.

 

Please devs, make a system that punishes the people who deserve it, and one that does not punish the innocent.

Beautiful post! :)

[golden5648 1,686]

So many of you have liked my idea, why not support me? If you think I need to edit then tell me :)

[BuriedSky 1,319]

Well, this is a good idea and it can prevent violations to a good extent...

I know there will be few loop holes...but just the current system can be changed so that people are not able to even post such words..

I like it...+1..;)

Downvoted by accident :c

Woah. Hold on there.

 

We do not ban players for such small reasons, not at all. We edit posts or issue warnings. Bans for minor flood/spam doesn't seem to justify a violation. It's a small mistake for which we take things easy.

 

Forum moderators report violations containing nudity, profanity, provocative content, trolling etc. Sometimes we even forsake troll posts to keep the forum's enviorenment joyful or communication-friendly. 

 

But that's the forum's story. There is a whole different story for the chat lobby which can be better explained, or has already been explained, by a chat moderator.

 

In my opinion some players would escape such restriction, as they already have. Players use different ways of 'expressing' their thoughts, mostly those whom use profanity. They spell the word differently, use a different language or even try to get to the point by converting the word into a sentence. If such an idea was implemented, I wouldn't see that much effect or change on the chat's environment.

[GhostRider750 614]

The auto-filter for chat in chat lobbies and battles is helpful for blocking profanity and spam but it isn't perfect.  Some players continually change how they write things to bypass the auto-filter.  We have all been warned and/or banned by the auto-filter for unintentional flooding, myself included.  Unfortunately some players very intentionally try to be profane and/or flooders in chat.  Even if the auto-filter caused nothing to show in chat, these players would still get around it.

[drazeruzumaki 5,021]

excellent idea but i always wonder why tanki only u know censors those offensive words instead of hiding them :huh:

[i..0R4NG3 745]

I like this idea so that less people dislike the game cuz thats 1 fact people don't like it, I mean what if they wanna talk but banned forever? -_- Useless and no its too hard to make another acc for me but 1 thing I still don't really get what does being banned have to do with not being able to create a battle?
