Clean up Forest Haven

[DanielRH]

Hi all

Since balefort has become the new place to hang out, our great "ye old towne" has turned to trash.

New players come to forest haven and talk trash!

I am starting a new campaign to clean up Forest Haven.

Heres how you can help;
Hang out in forest haven and report any inappropriate language, and say something along the lines of "Inappropriate language will not be tolerated, I am reporting you and will report anyone else who talks like that."

After enough of this, maybe these people will get it that they CAN'T talk like that!

Was in there last night, and I usually only report for racism, hate speech / names or Dev impersonations, but there was some guy cursing up a storm in there for no reason. Guess he just thought it was funny, so I had to report him. It was awful, and that is the 'Gateway' to the game, so that is where new players get their first impression.

Seriously id rather have trash talk in foreat haven then other towns. Im fine with it.. U can never get rid of trash talk.. It actually hurts us high lvl players if devs have to waste their time reading chatlogs and ban free accounts.. Just let it be man :-D

[mugen]

yup its been pretty awful in there lately.you almost need blindfold to run to ellie for pots.

You forgot to mention the 30 friend requests and 50 pms from people begging for stuff before you even load.

my ignore list consists mainly of free accounts lol

[superss]

a agree trash talk should not be tolerated! and i am also tired of the tons of beggars and noobs sending request i get like 10 every time i drop in there! time to act!!

[Cmandial]

Yea this is the first place new players see, and forest haven definitely does not indicate how most PL players are. These people are giving a bad impression and something needs to be done.

[superss]

exactly my thinking! it should be a good first impression.

[IamBored]

I am honestly not bother by those random friend request, beggars, and trash talker. I never accept random friend request so it doesn't really bother me. I never answer to beggars so I could careless. As for the trash talker, I usually just have fun with them. Maybe I am not in towns enough to be bothered.

Last few days there has been a person(s) that have been extremely bad...I think it may be the same person, sent some screen shots in...and recommended an IP check, it may just be one or two people that have made multiple accounts and been going around flaming and using inappropriate language

[DanielRH]

As FluffNStuff said, Forest Haven IS the gateway to the game, it's where new players get their first opinions of the game.

And if people are talking trash, it will give a bad view of the game, and if I ever joined a new game and the first thing I saw was people swearing and so on... I wouldent even try the game out.

Every game has beggars and annoyers, but I can't stand innapropriate talk.

Stronger chat filter please.. and we need server disconnects/temp bans when a player uses inappropriate language.
I agree the newer community are not respecting the rules. (also some of the older members)

[Kujen]

They should bring back the filter with automatic warnings, like they had at one point. But they should add exceptions for phrases that produce false positives (crush the keeper, voodoo spoon etc)

[giayuan]

Erhh not necessarily. I personally think the chat filter is too strong already ;D What the devs need to do is put server disconnects or something on words like the F bomb or things that are too sexual. Things like hell should NOT filtered, though I understand "hell" is used commonly in phrases like "what the hell", etc. so I guess a filter is required.

Balefort is getting invaded by the same thing not as much but starting to

Yes, but as long as CS stays there and there are civil people like us forumers, chaos will not occur haha

Yeah right...

Maybe having game moderators would help. They just play like normal, but when someone files a report, they get a notification, so the devs wouldn't have to work so hard on banning and the sort

[DanielRH]

Military man - it would mak it alot easier if their where in game mods, but I asked the devs about that a while back... I don't think their gonna do it.

[Doubletime]

I will add that I think the more experienced long time players should report inappropriate language on any of these gateway areas. I'm not saying to report every person that says h*ll or darn. But if a person is repeatedly using offensive language or hate speach to spam boards, it should be reported. The only way things will get better is if the players self-police the board. The mods simply can't do it all. All it takes is the click of one button and a confirmation.

Also, don't feed the little trolls or argue with them. That just gives them the attention they are looking for anyway and encourages them to continue. Just report them and move on with your game. Just my personal thoughts on what we should be doing to do our part too.
