If there are so many toxic people in a game that these kinds of things kill the game then the game deserves to die.

You do realize that people you play against in multiplayer games are other real humans right?

Put this is any other context and you can see why you’re wrong. Just because you’re behind a screen shouldn’t make you impervious to the consequences.

People who yell racist/homophobic/etc shit in video games deserve to have their gaming privileges revoked. I mean steam account bans, ip bans, etc. if that’s how you act towards other people you don’t deserve to participate in a community.

I do think trash talk should be allowed but it’s hilarious if you think anyone feels “put in their place” if you’d at something rude to them in a video game. It’s just going to make them mute you or be rude back.
