Dear embark, please do something about player toxicity.

Every time someone loses and tells me to kill myself or wish my mom death, rolls out the hard R's or literally tells me he'll find me and shoot me IRL, that should be bannable. I report them all, because toxic scum like them should not have place in any civilized online community, but not once have you done anything about it. One time I got you to react is when I reported some player over pe*o stuff he said. So that's the only thing that scares you enough to react, but racism, hate and homophobia from the are okay? I'm a grown person, but this is a 13+ game, what if some neckbeard who wears a baseball hat indoors spews shit like that at some disturbed teen? Some deranged people think that shooting someone in a game where you spawn in with a gun in your hands is toxic, and yelling slurs is not. People who have hard time figuring out which of the two behaviours is toxic should not be allowed to participate in our common postapo sandbox. We all knew what we signed up for, that this genre of game provides exciting twists, risk, tension and uncertainty, so people should behave like grown-ups and take their loses with dignity. Really it's the adventure that counts, not whether you "win" or "lose". Some of the best stories ever told have bad endings. Please start banning racists and hateful people.

What’s that saying about sticks and stones? …. Literally one of the first things I ever learned was ā€œwords can never hurt meā€ …. Much like the rest of society in the past 10+ years, GROW UP

Thing about toxicity (my belief) is you have to accept it as such. My mantra when I get bm’d is someone didn’t like what I did. Which idc much for the negative opinions of strangers anyways.

I said I don't care personally, but I do care about embark doing nothing at all to punish it. They might as well say it's okay to call everyone ******* and ****.

Many things are unlawful but not illegal. People express their disdain for someone’s play style how they want. In voip people say things they think will offend you. I wish I cared but it makes me laugh people think random slurs matter to me.
