Guild Wars 2

It is happening in solo Que .
Our team has won the game .
It is a word that was said from the players after the game, I was on target.
Certainly I am Japanese.
What do you think of this rant?

I think the company might want to start taking verbal reports more seriously. That’s just repulsive.

Report him, if he doesn’t get a serious ban then I don’t know what Arenanet are doing when it comes to abusive behavior.

Probably some 12 year old kid with nothing better to do with his time. Just ignore him.

Serious question, is it okay to refer to someone from China as a “Chinaman”? Same as you would say a Frenchman or Welshman? I’ve seen this and wasn’t sure. In the big lebowski Walter said it’s not the preferred nomenclature.

If you reported him he would end up with a 3 day suspension due to verbal abuse. Anything that a player does or says that negatively effects other players is an offense that Anet will respond to.

ep*rage, internet tough guy, etc

Report and block.

Maann 3 days? maybe if enough people report him he’ll get permabanned.

Chinaman is apparently a derogative term due to historical usage (and a song I don’t recall).
On the rant, it’s a shallow and racist comment and I feel sorry you have to go through that. However, know that the perceived anonymity and apparent lack of authority online (see GIFT from knowyourmemes) allow people to be apathetic and insensitive, even offensive because of the lack of consequence.
However, don’t let opinions like that affect you. If you take a hit from every slander thrown at you, you won’t live long in this world. If you get shiet on, don’t say anything. You have nothing to prove and nothing to be defensive or hurt about. Also, don’t feed trolls. They thrive on virtual anguish.

i think a verbal abuse report should be filled immediately.
and the said offender should be punished accordingly.
the racism level is very strong with this one.

well, according to urban dictionary, it is usually a derogatory term

as a malaysian chinese citizen myself, i prefer to be called a “malaysian” or a “chinese” but definitely not “chinaman” as it could imply that i am from china.

though my grandfather and grandmother was born in china, both of them came over to malaysia before malaysia independence and settled down here, so we very much prefer to be called “malaysians” or simply “chinese” will suffice.

I’ve had worse…I screenshot the convo but unfortunately they got deleted….

Was on the lines of just repulsive language, and hoping i die of cancer…not nice…all because this guy hated mesmers in a 1v1.

:(

well, to contribute to the topic, i was playing my warrior in hotjoin, fought some ranger, then he / she started scolding me in /say chat and then afterwards /whisper

it started with
“f-word you and healing signet”

mostly is healing signet rage.
just the f word, not serious racist remarks though.

It’s unacceptable. Solo queue is a cesspool of human behaviour right now. Does ANet not employ any GMs? I would happily volunteer 3 hours a week to go through reports for them for free if they can’t afford real GMs!
