Honourable Conduct

[FasT]

Over the last few weeks i have seen a increase in certain ppl shouting abuse and crap at other plyers.
Only the other day a plyer was ask to leave a 4v4 battle as at least 3 in that battle would and didnt want to ply this fool who shouts abuse and insults http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/frown.gif
When ask to leave he wouldnt,i know of 2 ppl like this,and they wonder why they on ignore and why nobody want to fight them.We all say silly things in the heat of the moment but sometimes constant abuse in the foyer is way to much.So i ask these ppl to grow up or do urself and others a faver,leave Shogun or even better still Kill Urself http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gifYou'll be doin all the community a big faver.
Oh does anybody know if there is a limit set for ur ignore list?As mine is growing.
I name no name as most know who these r http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/mad.gif

Think! http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/eek.gif http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/eek.gif before u go shouting off! http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/eek.gif

Maybe this will help http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/biggrin.gif http://www.totalwar.org/online/honour.shtml

Unfortunately I see this type of conduct everyday...you all know we are talking about...they were always the same people from the beggining.

Yesterday I met whose arrogance is still to challenge, he wanted to play me and he was a known player undercover, he even knew I was from Malta etc. He made fun of me; well until I kicked his ass wide of course http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/biggrin.gif

Later on an notorious guy came on and started swearing and saying bad words until I put him on my ignores...it was probably his 3rd/4th name that made it on my list, oh well...

you two are right the MI server is full of abusive language and insults but its always gonna happen and we just have to learn to ignore them, if everyone does this the problem will improve!
can i ask for the reasons behind the org having a no-naming policy?

I see much name calling swearing and other abuse. On one occasion it went on and on. So I logged off in the end. Why all this bad feeling? I see ppl called cheat 1 guy nearly every time I see his name. If ppl cheat it show their lack of principles put it down to their inadequacy and laugh, it's nice to win but it not everything. As for foul language I thought you could block it but apparently no, my brother has to be careful what his kids see. Not nice..........Orda

[MagyarKhans Cham]

there is at least one sad guy that revealed to me that he logs on just to piss people off. his name(s) is wellknown and somehow this should be solved.

any ideas

[FasT]

I still feel the best way here,and for it to work.Is to have a complants address ie EA
This would be really simple and not take and of EA or Activisions time up.It goes like this;
Mr FastCub abbusive behavour towards others on around 9gmt to 11gmt.Ok EA/Activision get emails from others complaining about Mr FastCub foul mouth http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif
EA/Activision send in PolicePatrol to check this out!This would not take much of there time i think?
OK Mr FastCub caught redhanded over a period of days has been monitored and has been usin foul and abbusive langauge.No messy CD keycode revoked http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/frown.gif
EA/Activision dont dont even have to send in PolicePatrol?What could and should happen at lets say the Org.Is have a complaints sections only for the chosen few to see http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/eek.gif
What im sayin is have a selected few from different time zones who r respected or well know plyrs say around 10.But these chosen 10 have been chosen by the Org so others dont know who they r.Thus they can check out complants then see for there own eyes,and pass this information onto whoever deals with it?
IMO this would work,just need it agreeing by EA/Activision, and send them to chosen 10 names.
Then in the foyer those who r just getting plain and simply fed up with those, can send in a complant.Thus get checked out,we hope.
Would this be possible?
Could the Org set up somthing like this?
Does and should the community demand this?
Or do we just put them on ignore forever?
Maybe a poll in here would see what the whole community would like,i dunno just some idea,s.Alot more in here with more brains and better idea,s so let here them http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/biggrin.gif

FastCub PR man! http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/wink.gif

EA have already banned 3 known players I think; one who threatened a life; one who infiltrated too many clans and one who was happy that 3000 Americans died in the WTC attacks.

All 3 have acquired a new cd-key and continued to play online.

Fast, i like your idea of the community demanding some sort of policing unit...but the problem is that the company has to pay someone to do sucha job and what do they care, really? also, there is the idea of who is the policing unit, as it would be best if it were someone who didnt play the game at all so they didnt have friends or amigos within the ranks. I get so upset sometimes when people are being foul and obnoxious to each other online, especially when i know there are females and children in the foyer. We all get upset and talk trash sometimes, example: the term "WTF" -- but some of the behavior lately is totally inexcusable.

[Muneyoshi]

Everyone has a godo point, but I dont agree with the "PolicePatrol" idea. Say for instance I dont like (insert name here) and then tell EA/CA that they were being rude and such and get their cd-key banned, but they werent doing anything bad at all? Their would be a lot of people complaining

[Papewaio]

Have a unique ID-Honour-key associated with each CD key which is created the first time it is used online (obviously not a 1:1 coding more like a new ID out of an SQL database). From then on anyone can see the number and have it linked to ignore or send it in for complaints.

OR

Have the same ID-Honour-Key but have it unlock another game forum for the honourable. Then if you do something wrong you lose the priviledge and go back to the normal options.

That way the dishonourable are excluded while not losing MP totally.

And also....the effect of it on new players.

1)They leave this game for what it is, because they don't like that kind of behaviour.

2)They think this kind of behaviour is normal and start to behave bad themselves.

Seen both...and both very sad.

It's not that hard to find a few honourable guys who are willing to keep an eye on it all. They can report EA about what's going on.

The solution to this problem lies within the community. One of those players mentioned above by Tera still plays regularly and appears to have wide acceptance even by veterans of the community, he is even playing in Boro's Tourney. If you find abusive behaviour reprehensible then prove it by ostracising the guilty individuals. Don't wring your hands for a few weeks then go back to normal.

are we talking about tankdogg or makatoskull and hes other names?

Interesting! Names! http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/eek.gif

I think whoever it is is just a sad little man with emotional issues stemming from his own shortcommings http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/eek.gif ... This is his way to make himself feel important... like he counts for something... this way, by being abusive in the foyer, he perceives he is getting the attention he so much craves. By talking about him, you are feeding his ego... feeding the beast. And he will be more likely to return for more.

Use ignore.

Ignore the pig(s).

Shun the pig(s).

If you must respond, treat them like children.

Whoever they are.

Or, maybe they just have Turet's syndrome... http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/eek.gif
