Using Slurs in Rainbow Six Siege Now Leads To Instant Ban
- Thread starter packy17

Saw this earlier. It was great seeing people get pissed on Reddit and trying to lie they got banned just for swearing.
Doesn't matter, should still be bannable to insult other people in game.
Because trash talk can be good nature and part of the fun. Bigotry is not.
I mean, post after post here that are accusatory that I'm insinuating both are on the same level of griefing or insult.
I never said either had a place. My post was that both are pointless. When I play my game, I don't want people pounding the keyboard, screaming into the microphone, trolling nonsense, etc. Take that stuff to discord or private chats. For some reason elevating this conversation to the next level of removing all toxicity from gaming led to me being labeled as insensitive to racism or being an apologist for something as vile and foolish.
Yeah with friends, not with strangers since you don't know how they feel about it.
I mean, most people dont use their own slurs. Considering the trauma they know it causes, and the hate behind them.

Yeah, anyone who says they got banned for anything other than racism/homophobia/hate speech is lying. From the reddit post about this 4 months ago :
That's why I'm saying you should probably re-read your post. It comes off as sarcastic and demeaning. I undestand you are not defending the use of hate speech by comparing it to trash talk but your post comes off like you are. Maybe just rephrase it.
The subreddit will be more fun on Monday when they start banning boosted players.

Awesome. I love this game so much, but the community can be incredibly toxic and elitist at times, even for a multiplayer game, it's really unfortunate. I hope other games can Implement something similar.
I hope they can do something about other community issues as well, but I'm sure those aren't easy fixes for things like partied up team killing.

Glad they are doing this because it is rampant in the online gaming community
Respect and props to them

Good shit, Ubisoft. That first tweet in OP is fucking hilarious, haha. Savage AF.
Looking forward to every major developer implementing this ASAP. It should literally be this easy.

One of my teammates is boosted and I know it's gonna happen to him. It's weird too, he's regularly Plat and over level 190. I don't get why someone who's decent and has played so much would boost.

If only there was a way to do it for voice chat. Even if you can mute people, by the time it reaches that point it sours the game knowing the types of people on your team. I feel like people do this on voice far more than text.
I give this game and ubi a lot of shit but good on them for this. If only the rest of the game industry took this stance in regards to hate. We need to excise this hate and asshats from the industry and community, their money shouldn't be welcome.
Good.
Rainbow Six was littered with the N word and 'White Power chants'. If you honestly cant stop saying it in a video game, you're pathetic

Reminds me of those people who get legitimately pissed when they get banned for cheating online and threaten to never buy any of the studio's games again.
The fuck did you expect them to do? Apologize because they didn't let you fling slurs in their game?
Just read the comments on the pcgamer tweet reporting this.
Had to reply at some nuggets on there. These people claiming the world is getting too soft or too feminine...
They genuinely are the kind of cunts who would have painted anti-Jewish slurs on Jewish business store fronts in Nazi Germany. Really little difference other than these people are 99% even more cowardly because they have their online shield.

Love it. The crying in reddit might be even better.
I wonder how many freedom of speech arguements were attempted.

Situations are offline. Terrorist Hunt has a lone wolf mode but I don't think it works offline.
They've been abnning for it forever, but you had to manually report people before. Every time I sent a report in I'd ask why, since they finally could read the chat (They couldn't for a long while, that's how you know it's a console game at heart, text chat is literally hacked in) why it wouldn't just auto ban people since there's no acceptable context for that stuff.
So I'm super glad they surprise launched this shit.
Also, as much as it's annoying hearing this stuff on voice chat too, of course, it's FAR FAR FAR less common, because you can't voice chat wiht the enemy team, which 90% of the time is who these dipshits want to call something derogatory.
A lot of shit fucks losing their shit about this. GOOD.
The toxic, racist, homophobic, sexist Twitch community definitely took hold of Siege.

i wish more of you snowflakes just got to the fucking point on your first post instead of this cowardly merry go round you always do before getting your asses banned.
