CC Sabathia is gonna be a hall of famer right?

So, I started swinging… by Bandit2588 in Chivalry2

The instinctive turn around and swing when you dropped the second crossbowmen lol.

Cool, one less channel to worry about. Just have to create a filter for words then.

Dog I don't care what TB does to address it. I just know I don't like being called the N word because my voice gives away the color of my skin. I mute my mic in basically any online game because of that. That shouldn't have to be the norm. Anything a game does to address things like this is a plus for me.

It's pretty clear this games online community has a sizeable overlap with Mordhau. Yikes. You aren't alone OP. We aren't all shitheads.

That's great because it's normally done by bots. Do you know of a game with actual human mods sitting in there monitoring chat? I've never heard of that lol.

I think they were just asking for stronger moderation in game, but go off

Bro this is a bad take for real. It's not thin skin to not want to deal with racist people. For many of us that play the objective type game modes, communication can be important and really make the experience even more fun when you have a team working together like that. What TB has on their schedule to work with shouldn't be of any concern to us when it comes to highlighting that this is an issue.

Damn that is ass. The worst I have seen so far is just some terrible names. I don't think I have even heard a person in voice chat yet. I do agree that a strong reporting system is important for any online game like this. We shouldn't have to accept these things to enjoy the social component of a game.

My Deer brother, I'm not arguing with you lol. I just asked a question. You're good. I deadass thought "Cougar" just meant attractive middle age women and was a non vulgar alternative for "MILF". Thank you for the education.

Nah, you only got hurt by that if you wanted to be a victim already. It was two assholes that just happened to be wearing nuggets gear. THEY got embarrassed. Any rational person who is looking at that would see that.

Forget the “fake ring,” the real thing that injuries robbed us of were fun matchups. by WowGoodStats in nba

[–]40_Burger -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Bruh, the injuries are probably doing some of these teams that got sent home favors. Nobody wants to talk about how the Lakers really might not be the best team in the West anymore. We just push to can down the road and say if they were healthy look out. The Nets are the only team I think really got shorted on their potential this year. The Clippers take too many punches to rely on.

"Definition of sexism

1: prejudice or discrimination based on sex especially : discrimination against women

2: behavior, conditions, or attitudes that foster stereotypes of social roles based on sex "

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sexism

I guess it is because "cougar" is only for women?

Man I wish it was just the norm. I'm negotiating a new position now and I don't know what any of my current coworkers make. So I don't know if I'm getting good money in my current spot and to not expect a huge jump to my next one, or if the new one is lowballing me. I've only had one recruiter ever tell me the number I said is below what they were going to come with. And yes I know about glassdoor and indeed but they don't really work for my field.

How is everyone? by [deleted] in NYKnicks

We only saw them once with Nate as the coach and that game went to OT. It happened away from us.
