That's a really bad take. You never know the mindset of the person behind the screen. For all you know they could have depression and someone telling them to kill themselves may push them over the edge.

Also if you tell a person to kill themself and they do, you're legally responsible in the eyes of the law.

Thank you. This is what I've been trying to say, especially considering I lost some of my friends to suicide in the past so this topic really hits me home.

It really surprises me as to how many people are so insensitive to other people when it comes to things like this, and the last thing I want DB to turn into is a toxic environment where death threats and suicide encouragements become a norm.

Please, listen to reason about this. I made this suggestion topic with reason, and I hope that at least one of the admins will understand the severity regarding these matters.

They understand the severity, but they are only going to deal with it when it happens. It isn't accepted in Duelingbook.

telling people to kill themselves or tellin them you are going to harm them are indeed crimes in most countries. that is why its one of the highest penalties on the site. I myself think that any death threat should be met with an instant permanent ban but thats just me. we have our penalty system and even if we did permanently ban people who made such threats. the ones who actually care to make those threats are going to just ban evade and keep doing it anyway same with facebook and twitter. The ammount of effort and resources required to get a random person on the internet arrested for telling you to kill yourself or threatening to blow up your house is massive and unrealistic especially if they are using a protected vpn. threats on the internet and threats irl are just generally handled differently and that is just the nature of things. he anonimity of the internet can be a good and bad thing.

You and me both in terms of the penalties for death threats. I guess we both share a common interest in keeping DB a safe environment for everyone after all. Having said that, I understand where you're coming from, programming bots is difficult for all I know (nobody said programming in Python would be easy, that's for sure), and I'm sure the upkeep would be difficult.

Although, I do wish there were better ways members could be protected, but I guess that's just me.

Apparently, even though we haven't gotten any automatic freeze/ban system in place, we have actual bots like the Google Bot reporting stuff to the admins.

This is kind of contradictory, considering there were a lot of users calling me retarded on the Discord which ended up with myself being removed from the Discord Server entirely.

Ping a moderator. You can also block them.

Yes. I get called names, then I get banned. I will not be accepting any one staff member's excuses either. This was entirely un-called for. The users that called me a retard are being investigated by Discord themselves.

It doesn't matter sir, Shattered Sky along with Madi agreed with the entire Discord.

I think the site needs better complying people such as myself along with the author of this post, because we seem to understand, like yourself, what a ToS is.

If two mods came to that conclusion, I find it incredibly hard to believe you're the victim here.

Have you ever considered that your behavior may had make it worse to get yourself removed from the discord?
