still banned.

yeah I cant wait to buy the next game from 1C. getting banned for a indefinite time because of saying a bad word in a chat of a war game with blood and gore is always welcome..

I've been told over on the DMS forum that you even get banned for words that aren't in any way profane, when said in english.
apparently its pretty much just a matter of time until you're banned for some innocuous word.
they say 'hooligan' is on the obscene list ...seriously.

Wouldn't surprise me if 'democracy' was on the list too...



FYI, getting pretty ticked off that this crap is now going on towards 7 days.
particularly as someone who has probably brought in excess of 40 people to the game.

Ya, I'm still banned aswell! I left a forum thread and a message on Nike-It's profile and I'm still banned... Isn't the game rated M for a reason?

[trbaron]

yeah, M for Mediocre support.

Hooligan, or Khuligan in Russian, is a very offensive word.

As for what is going on with the bans, its just so messed up. Sounds to me though somebody is lazy, or there is no one to do the job anymore.

I assume that they realise when said in English it just means someone acting like an idiot in public?

eg: "soccer hooligan" is a soccer fan that then goes on to cause trouble outside of the stadium where the match was held.

and rather then ban people, why not just use a 'bad word filter'?
they are pretty easy to put in place.
though that is probably a silly question when they can't even administer the ban system.

Still banned.

[trbaron]

The ban continues.
