Are you seriously expecting some sort of punishment for this? This site allows a wide range of profanity as it does not become bigotry, racism, etc.

This is an ignorant report brought by a user who should know better, given that he's been on this site since 2007. I hope he gets a warning for posting a superfluous report.
Bollocks. and maybe this will earn me my own report! child making shitty reports

Somewhat OTT... This was undeniably abuse, and this is the forum for abuse reports; the fact that it's tolerated abuse may not be known (if they've never had occasion to report before) or acceptable to all.
BTW swearing is not big, it's not clever, and this attention-seeking doesn't enhance the argument.

It's intentionally absurd in order to further illustrate how absurd the original post was. But as usual, that flew right over your head.

One more thing Clang, and anyone who has decision making authority here; what, in your mind, constitutes abuse? Is it simply the use of colorful language? "Swear" words? Read the following quote:

Now that the offending words have been removed, is this still abusive? Or are you really saying you object mostly to any derivative of the word "fuck"?
Given what we know about CC tolerating "swear" words, and given both this report, and the fact that the author of the OP has been here as long as he has, he should be given a warning for a nonsensical report. And maybe those of you offended by my unedited post can learn to look past the useless fill words used by some users such as myself.
Bollocks.

I know that in the past CC has allowed posts for satirical purposes (e.g. Pimpdave's Tea-Party Death Squad posts) so Serbia's post should be fine.
IMO the original report should be noted for being so stupid. It seems like Tennisie is just angry that caff made fun of Ollie... Ollie can defend himself and the mods/admin have way better things to do than to waste their time on this childish bullshit report.

C&A report for this? Get a fucking life man. Language is a part of this game, it's not even bad language. Grow up.
There should be a warning for bullshit C&A reports, so many of them are so limp.

I didn't classify your post as abusive - merely as being over-populated with swear words. Did it communicate any less feeling without them? I don't believe so. Personally I interpret the need to emphasise an argument with swear words as indicating a weakness in the underlying argument - a bit like shouting does - but that's probably just me. Personally I class the game chat comment as abusive - if someone came up to you and called you that to your face, would you just let it pass as being colourful language? I wonder. It's not that it's swearing, but that it's directed at a fellow player. Were I to moderate this, by the rules of the site, I would have to say FAMO, but I wouldn't class it as a spurious report.

Actually, I would be inclined to let it go. It was a single comment, not a rant, and I don't jump at any chance to fight. I only do so when I feel I have to. And, even if I were to decide to respond, I would respond directly; I wouldn't go running to mummy and daddy (the mods) to tattle on the guy calling me a rude name. I work in construction, and hear this type of language all the time. If I got mad every time I got called a word, I'd be fighting nearly every day.
Bollocks.

I tend to agree with you, generally. But, I think that should be a "way of thinking about comments that are directed towards me" and absolutely not "a punishable offense." If you catch my drift? I would never drop unnecessary F-Bombs, or C-Bombs, or whatever against another person. I do tend to picture it like I was having a conversation with someone (like you do, apparently). But the idea that this can be used to report someone also seems fascist and ridiculous to me. Book burning is worse that being rude (and, yes, I realize that's an extreme comparison). But still, no need to punish somebody for hurt feelings, even if I would never express myself that way. This is not a problem, it's just rude. Caff does not come out looking like a "good guy" here, but, if that's the standard for reporting someone, that's absurd. The entire new york times "comments' section could be reported. Have the "swear word filter" on, if you are so easily offended.... the internet is full of rude people that say much meaner things without using the "F word." The "F word" doesn't make anything intrinsically worse than the statement itself.

'f-bomb'
lol.
KABOOM.
seriously though, when used in this fashion, profanity has the grammatical function of an 'intensifier' (technical term) and is completely harmless to anyone who isn't an absolute cunting fuck-faced bastard. grow some balls already. what a bunch of fuckin' losers

Just as well not everything is being emphasised then. I see little point in anyone commenting here any longer. The mods have done their job, let them carry on with other reports.

2015-07-03 04:49:47 - iAmCaffeine: I have never spoken about you in our clan forums, got better things to do. 2015-07-03 04:50:01 - iAmCaffeine: Like browse the latest videos of your mother and sister getting freaky. 2015-07-03 04:50:24 - iAmCaffeine: Liveoak, maybe you should go meet Waterman or funkymonkeyman, whatever they were called. 2015-07-03 04:50:35 - iAmCaffeine: Btw, it's losing, not loosing. Get a clue. 2015-07-03 04:50:50 - iAmCaffeine: It's only slander when it's not true, so in this case that makes no sense. 2015-07-03 04:51:05 - iAmCaffeine: Also, I have lost 54% of my games, so I'm well familiar with the concept. 2015-07-03 04:51:25 - iAmCaffeine: Doubt I'll be having another turn so good game, enjoy screwing the leaderboard and making new accounts. Bye! 2015-07-03 04:51:42 - iAmCaffeine: how many of you guys are left in MM now anyway? I guess all the good players went to TOFU?
Well i am by far perfect when it comes to swearing and generally being an asshole in chat a lot. I do however never outright insult another players family as iAmCaffeine just did in chat. To most this seems harmless, and to a lesser degree i agree. What he cannot understand is a lost my older sister to cancer when she was 12 years old. So to me this is as low as it gets. Think before you insult me anymore iAmCaffeine. If you want to know the truth about all my cheating ways, simply ask me. I have been wronged on this site multiple times. If nothing else you are much worse then me, you constantly troll others and abuse there well being as you have just did to me. I loved my sister, and you just insulted her, congrats.

I wondered if this would get copied. Whilst I'm sorry about your sister (if that story is true) I'm not taking anything I've said back. This is the internet, and people insult you. I happen to be one of those people on occasion. Everyone has certain things that have happened to them, but if you can't see past the meaningless banter or insults then that's something you need to deal with yourself, because every time someone insults your mum, dad, sister or brother, you probably can't afford to always rise to it. Just sayin'.
Also, the fact you never insult other players directly, or their families, is a blatant lie.
If you've been wronged many times and you're not a cheat, feel free to PM me about it. Otherwise I, and everyone else, will never believe you.

- Salut CC members, Its been a while since I skated C&A. - I will only say this, People get mad/angry, some have higher boiling points than others, some can give it and take it, some can give but not take it, Some love to start, Some thrive on the finish, Some can be down right ignorant, Some are pretty funny about it, But whether Your this some or that some, I say always leave Family out of it, Especially Mothers, If one can't come up with a good insult against Me, then think of Your Mother before You mention mine. And one last thing before I get jumped on for this post ( I'm prepared btw, and can take it), Maybe its just Me growing up with 3 sisters and Mother while Dad worked 12-15 hours a day, But I have the utmost respect for women, and maybe the word c-u-n-t doesn't offend every woman, But I'm sure its not a woman's favorite choice of words to describe someone. I know swears are legit, words like f*ck,shit,asshole,dick are very commonly used even by women, But I strongly believe the "c" should be taboo. Just one man's opinion. Ok Guys, let r rip '')

I generally find that only folk who are either immature, lack self confidence, have less than average IQ or are cowards resort to abuse in game chat. They seem to think it makes them look big, when in fact it just makes them just look small and very sad.
