implemented Chat filters?

[bleaumeani]

Is there  way to mute someone in chat?  Listening to the pubesant talk about rape culture and how fun it is, and ignoring our female players when asked to stop is pretty annoying to the point of wanting to leave

Death would need to implement a chat system and a mod like this one:

It is rough with no admin on to have to endure trolls. I am sorry you having to listen to this.

Another option would be to give known players the ability to vote to kick new players:

I will look into a maturity filter for the chat and I'm opposed to having a vote kick feature as it wouldn't take much effort for a small group to assemble to abuse the feature. Thanks for all the suggestions!

I'm not sure what was worse, the rape talk, the racial slurs, or the fact they ignored Fyres when she asked them to stop.  I'm affraid she might not play that server again.  The cancer jokes stopped (when I was online) after I thanked them for the one joke that popped off coming from a cancer patient (me).  I'm NOT for censorship, I DO know this is a pretty raw crowd for a raw game, but if there was a way to just turn "them" off from my chat, or anyones for that matter would be nice. And Death you're right, it wouldn't take much for a group to abuse it, thusly the reason to turn them off. anyway Thanx for the comments. Don't get rekt, Rip lata

@bleaumeani you can disable chat in settings. The best way to remedy this is with the ban hammer which has already been done. Also, I'm sure @Fyreswrath will not be so easily deterred by a few spoiled kids with entitled internet access. She's a tough woman!

What I plan to do to prevent this from happening in the future:
1) Add a chat filter to replace or remove banned words before they're even sent
2) Deploy more staff on that server during swing shift
3) Sharpen the ban hammer

The swift action is much appreciated, as is the fabulous community spirit shown in the concern for me ( <3 @bleaumeani).  As @Death said, I can see trolling for what it is when it comes from that demographic, however I was more concerned for the reputation of our community and the offence others may have taken.

Happy to help out in any way.

The hammer of god is upon us  For some reason I have a gut feeling it'll never end. Another reason I left Pure PvE. Between the bullshit asshats and whiny people. I couldn't do anything so I swapped servers.  I feel bad for the people that are female and or others who have had an illness that  have to to deal with any of it. I'd like to destroy them computers of the bullies if I could.

@Dirty Harry unfortunately that's rust but our servers don't have to be this way. We have a zero tolerance for asshatery but we're not always on to catch it so it's important that someone steps up and calls them out.

It's hard to sometimes. I've tried before and hell I've gotten so mad, I've even put them on blast giving them the same treatment they've given others. I should that guy floating from server to server screen capping everything so you can find and do accordingly  Seems easy enough to me. That way if you're not around I'can post them on the site so you can deal with it at a later time.
