@Kawaiyi Ignoring the fact that this could easily be abused by people who want to get others banned for no real reason, the person offended by this type of speech already has means to combat it OUTSIDE of RGL. There is no reason to involve RGL in private servers when people can block others or simple leave that server.

@Xenagos how is cheating the same as private dms

@Papaya said in Addressing Racism/Anti-LGBTQ Speech on Off-Platform Media:
@Teapot If its behind closed doors then yes. RGL has no right to police what you say in a private discord.
I disagree. I think that is crossing the line between private speech and league-sanctioned speech.

@Xenagos i cant imagine how people got banned for sexual misconduct without screenshtos though
-
@hedaeoh LMFAOOO
-
@hedaeoh But in the end it is RGL doing the enforcing in a place they have no right to enforce their rules. RGL polices RGL scrims and matches only, not the actions of their players in general. If they receive a report unrelated to TF2, should that player be banned? No, because RGL ONLY deals with what happens within their TF2 league.

@hedaeoh I’m assuming RGL had direct access to someone’s DM’s rather than just a screenshot.
@lucki could be talking about cheating in DM’s
-
@Papaya y should scrims be policed then. u can jsut say ur scrim was for UGC

@mute Thanks for doing the heavy lifting for me lmao. Easiest dub in my life.
just kinda proof to me you wanna stir the pot and do not care at all about the subject

You guys are making a herculean effort to come across as the most idiotic people on the entire fucking planet. It’s truly inconceivable how you people can sit here and type these absolutely moronic paragraphs without for a second considering that maybe, just maybe, saying the N word in dm’s, in a private server, in the security of your own home even, is just not fucking required. There is no reason, at fucking all, no justification, no situation that could ever arise, in which you NEED to say the N word. You are all cretins of the most extreme variety and I am deeply, deeply disappointed that I even have to play in the same league as you people.

@Xenagos do you really think that the AC team bans someone who responds to someone asking if they cheat with “hell yeah i cheat what about it”

Just to put this on the record.
RGL has ZERO INTEREST in ever policing slur usage in private team discords or anything of the like.
I understand why people bring this up, I think racism and bigotry hurt communities and push people away. However, extending oversight to that level is not something we’ve ever wanted or have any interest in.
