How are people that tells their teammates to "go kill yourself" not permanently banned from the game? I'm so sick of hearing it.
It goes beyond "unsportsman" it's someone's life that you're putting at risk with words.
--- "But no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison."
My grandma always says "Kill a man with a weapon, you pay the price. Kill a man with your tongue, you are free to go".
And you know what, she's right.
fun fact: if you tell someone "kill yourself" and they do it, you can be imprisoned for it.
People treat other people online like trash because they are cowards. There is no other reason for it. They are cowards who like to have the feeling of power. My guess is that these are the same kinds of people who will team up with 3-6 of their friends to go beat up and pick on the little guy just because they can.
A lot of people use the excuse "I'm on the internet, so it doesn't matter what I say or do because it isn't reality."
This argument is flawed because of a few things. Firstly, whatever we put time into IS reality. Just because we are on the internet does not mean that the people on the other end, or ourselves for that matter, are any less real. Secondly, how you act online reflects on your own personal character. Who you are online is the real you. Those people who say "Kill yourself" are more than likely to be jerks in real life, or they put on a face when with people, but they think the same way as they would playing this game.
But it all really comes down to the fact that they are cowards. There is no way you would EVER tell someone to kill themselves in person if there was any chance that you would be punished in any way. If you told me to do that in real life, I would either tell you off, or punch you in the face. Anyone would. No one can harm you over the internet (physical, anyway. Emotional damage can still occur, but these people don't think this way, because "it's not real") so they like to have "freedom".
It's just an issue of character. Anyone who says that is a coward and has no sense of self dignity.
