Unfair admin?

I'm just making this post in hoping that admin sees this.
You banned a friend of mine down to seeing a one sided post in gwydion.
Have you not thought that people stoop so low in what they say because of what others say first?

If you were to ban one person, why not have the decency to ban them both.

Oh and just a heads up. He was borrowing all my luxery items.

So because you unfairly banned him, I have lost:
- golden bodkin of spirits
- golden camo charm
- heroic ami
- icelord dagger
- golden axe of carnage

Thanks a bunch.

That user was banned because he was using absuive language, which is not tolerated. Regardless of whether he was provoked or not that kind of language is unacceptable, and the use of it results in a ban.

If profanity is not allowed why do we have the option to turn the blocker off? I'm just wondering, I'm not saying we should be allowed to use inappropriate words, Its just wierd that theirs an option to allow you to see words that will get you banned.

If it is unacceptable... Why do you give people the opportunity to use a profanity filter and the ability to block other users?
By the way you are going with this you are giving gamers the right to speak freely, yet you ban them by doing so.
If you are disturbed by foul language, use the filter... If someone offends you, you can block them.

How you have gone around you are giving people these options yet you chose to just ban an accout because one person shared their half of the argument. This is not acceptable.

Sorry if it makes no sense, Im a bit angry so I'm not checking it :roll:

Here I'll make a good point to hopefully get this guy unbanned. Granted people can go to far with words and should be banned if he just didn't stop but if it's a one time thing then here's my defense to it.

If laungage won't be tolerated then why do you have a profanity filter in the options menu?
If people don't want to see those harsh words they click that box if they have it unchecked they obviously don't mind seeing "bad" words.

So I am guessing this person that reported him had the box uncheck meaning he doesn't mind seeing profanity therefore he boulder be banned. Maybe a week suspension but clearly you guys working at OTM don't understand what options you have in game.

And if it's still not to be tolerated after what I said, then remove the profanity option from the options menu.

Agreeing with the last dew statements, that is a bit sad to ban this player, after allow, it was you, the developers choice to allow us to swear if we so pleased.
I will assume that you will realise your bad mistake pretty soon and unnamed them, especialy since another player has lost out on lux items that were loaned.

Try changing the profanity filter back to fully off if you don't want bad language in the game.

Some of you seem to be missing the point. Freedom of speech is accepted, but let's be honest - swear words don't exactly get you anywhere: I'm sure you all have a wide enough vocabulary to use suitable words. It's a basic rule that must be obeyed and if they don't have a zero-tolerance, then people can just abuse the system. :)
