Hey All, I have a question regarding freedom of speech on this server and what is allowed and not allowed. I will use some bad words here because its quite difficult to ask this for specifics while not saying anything at all.
For some context:
- I have a lv 15, 30 and 22
- Really enjoying the server, community and many aspects of Octowow
- Have been bringing people to the server and growing the population as I want the best for the server long term
My issue and concern:
- I have already been muted before for saying the word "nigga" to an NPC (not at a person or attacking anyone) while casually talking in a dungeon group
- Then today I was warned and flagged again in world chat for making a joke
My goal with this post is not to discuss my individual situation. I am trying to understand what is the stance of the staff, or if there are any sort of written guidelines around what is accepted or not.
I would hate to level up a character to 60 and spend time of my life just to get banned for saying something that in my books is not a problem, but for someone else it is. (Which I think is asinine but that's besides the point).
I want to understand what is the "line" here because I see people saying stuff like "gay and retarded" on the chat, I see people calling other "faggots" and all sorts of things, and seemingly that is ok? But then I see other people get dinged for diff types of comments.
Many thanks
