why is offensive language still in the reports list?

Im guessing its only for people who use derogatory words like the N word and stuff like that right? because im pretty positive you cant be banned for saying cuss words since riots cast does all the time on their broadcasts so that would be a lil contradicting dont ya think.

Thought of this though since I was playing normals and a gold player was talking shit so I basically said im glad im not gold and he reported me for offensive language of all things lmfao. Gotta love salty reports though mi right?

It's on there specifically for any derogatory statements, racial and otherwise. People on the internet are clever, and they can get around word filters fairly easily if they really want to, so this report option has been left in so players can use their own decision making to mark potential offenders.

Verbal abuse = People saying shitty things to each other.

Offensive language = People saying shit that offends someone else even if it wasn't directed at them. (Racial or religious slurs, for example.)

I wouldn't get banned for using the terms I did in this fashion, but if I were directing either statement at you, it could get me at least flagged.
