Reporting people for stuff said in a private discord is so stupid and is just gonna stop people from wanting to play RGL. What is even more ridiculous is asking for permanent bans for slurs. “Hate speech” is free speech and making any other distinction is a very dangerous path towards just banning wrongthink.

I think that private discords are exactly that, private. What happens in them stays in them. Who really gives a shit if a couple of basement dwellers decide to say a couple gamer words in a private discord? How would you even find out unless you are actively searching for those gamer words? I mean come on, people have a freedom to say what they want in explicitly private groups.

I even hold the personal belief that you should be able to say the n-word and such in-game, since in the end its just a word, granted you aren’t using it as a slur and just a replacement for the word “dude” or anything casual like that. But do I really care? Not really. In the end its just a word, any power it holds over you is only because you let it hold that power of you.

The current rules are absolutely fine. The vast majority of people do not care about some people in private discords saying some funny words or whatever, and this is just stepping wayyyy over those boundaries of encroaching on free speech.

To the original poster of this and whoever agrees with him (and I do not mean this as an insult or anything of the sort): grow thicker skin. Stop letting things that barely affect you hold power over you, and you will both have a better time in RGL and in real life.

Have a good day everyone.

Hello,

I’ve recently created a Discord bot that can make your pug running experience 10x easier!

Features list:

• Can auto roll captains and then let the captains move people into the pug channels themselves
• Can just autoroll the appropriate amount of people and randomize the teams, then move them into the appropriate channels.
• Can automatically move everyone out of their pug channels once the pug is over.
• Will automatically send connect and team info to all members of the pug once the pug starts (or manually with $sendinfo).
• Can send RCON commands to the appropriate TF2 server from Discord!
• And more to come!

This bot works with any game type that has an even amount of players (which should be every type, I don’t see why you’d play pugs with uneven players).

If you would like to invite this bot to your servers, use the following link: https://discord.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id=799514260559888425&permissions=8&scope=bot
You can use $help to get started.

hello gentlemen

I’m looking to play on a dedicated, hardworking, and ambitious team next season. I’m currently on asian’s sweatshop and we are playing for 3rd place next weekend.

Hello! I am pleased to announce the launch of the Tf2 Log Searcher! http://deeznuts.link/Tf2LogSearcher/

This website allows you to search an entire person’s logs.tf history for any word or phrase you want!

Once I get all the logs downloaded, I plan to use them for more interesting statistics.
Things like:

• Average DPM of each class across each gamemode (and map too probably)
• Leaderboard of who has said any given word the most!
• Death heatmaps for each gamemode and map (big maybe)
• Probably other cool things that I can’t think of right now.

Contact Kastaling#7893 on Discord for any comments, suggestions, or concerns! or feel free to comment here of course.
I am open to any ideas for the website!

@cyclowns Yes, that forum is private. Pug discords are private. Team chat channels are private too. Anything that is officially run by RGL is public I’d say.

@cyclowns RGL scrims are moderated because, I imagine, they are official RGL scrims taking place between RGL teams. A notable yet fair exemption to that rule.

@cyclowns I agree with this. Let’s put it to a vote. See how many people would actually support such an overreach like policing private discords. I guarantee the amount of people supporting this would get pummeled by the amount of people voting “no”.

Then maybe afterwards we can have a vote to relax slur restrictions. After all, they are just words.

@nabla just block someone if they say a slur, its not hard. you dont have to see what people type

@Xenagos How so? You are restricting the speech of those in PRIVATE discords. What people say in their FREE TIME, completely separate from RGL. I understand the whole “private organization” argument, but I don’t really follow that ideology and just think it is an excuse to be able to restrict speech.

pure chad energy

@Cjprice Yeah you gave me a copy of it lol.

I was curious to see if I could implement the same thing on my website, but with the amount of requests that would put out it would probably not work very well.

@cayorne congratiugalions, i added date searching to the stats comparer!

@cayorne yes i do plan on adding date searching to this eventually, that’s really the only feature I have left I want to add to this.
working with dates is a bitch tho so it may arrive sooner or later

New update because I’m procrastinating the statistics project and have set an arbitrary date from when to start data collection.

This one is pretty useful, you can enter SteamIDs of multiple people, then compare their average stats based on a chosen class and gamemode.

in the process of making this I have unfortunately discovered I am only the 5th best soldier in advanced stats wise. unfortunate.

I just finished downloading every single log, all the way down to log #1. Any search you do now will be entirely complete. Thanks for staying tuned!

Hey it’s been a month since I’ve posted here but I have no better way to announce major feature additions than this, so whatever.

I just added a skill based picking system to the $startpug command, so its not completely random, but instead random with skill taken into account.

Use $help along with $setrole and $settings in order to set it up.

also on a smaller note, I added autofatkidding functionality, you can see it all in $help.

Happy pugging!
