Lately many people that I've talked to or asked in chat why they've said things that would get them muted have responded with, "Other people get away with it, so why can't I" and I've tried to explain why they should just follow the chat rules and not say these things (even besides the fact that it is disrespectful) but in the end, it comes down to if you can get away with it and you have no problem saying it what's the point in not. I just feel like many things on the servers go unchecked, people spoil all the time in the UHCs before and after death, but nothing happens, so other people do and some get muted some don't. It creates a slight inconsistency which even when Badlion Staff does a very good job in muting most, the people that get away with it (which there are quite a few on a daily basis) lead others to believe that this is an acceptable practice to tell others to take their own life or call others trash or garbage among other insults.

I feel that even though 9/10 mutes are handled successfully the 1/10 makes other people think it is okay, and it really makes badlion very toxic

You really hit this one on the nose.

Unchecked toxicity is a vicious cycle, and we do our best to keep it to a minimum, but I know that not one of those faces on the staff page can see every guy that breaks a chat rule. Feel free to report anybody that breaks chat rules, and we will handle them accordingly. Thanks for helping out, though.

@Hivlik well as of now I am perm muted (to reasons I don't feeling like explaining or debating to avoid further conflict) and it is quite hard to report the number of players that violate these rules. Kind of interesting to make so many mute reports
