[Suggestion] Gagging flamers
« on: November 22, 2012, 11:49 »
Hey LA staff.

Many times when i am bored i go check the ban request section in the forum, and what i have noticed is that there are many requests against flamers, so why not implement a simple yet effective method against flamers like gagging them in game? On top of that you can also implement the 3-strike out method which as the name implies, you autoban a player that has flamed 3 times in a single game. Sure people will still flame, but i think that this idea will dramatically lower the number of flamers, and generally improve the gaming experience. The punishments should look like this:


- First time flame: gag for 1 minute

- Second time flame: 5-10 minutes

- Third time: autoban (same time as he would leave a game)



Also while gagged, you can whitelist some of the commong phrases like: ss, b, top, bot, mid, cd, oom, bb etc.

The idea is not bad itself, but yet there is another problem. It's very hard to collect all the flames from many different languages which are being used on our bots. That can be the only difficulty.

serbian/turkish/english/arabic ..and couple more common languages that we have mods/admins who knows them who can help and it could be hard ofc, but it could really help to decrease the amount of requests and the flamers .. it won't be perfect tho, but helpful .

I would suggest not displaying sentence if person flames and if someone wants to hear it(if they are friends or something)  just to write !ungag or something like that.Still every word should be written and they can all ways say something like f**ucking,anyway it would be nice adding at least the most used flames

It ain't hard to collect all flames if you know where to search for them.

But coding... I'm not into this much.

I intended that so basically it means that every swear can be written half censored like that f**ucking,f!@king,f#%cking etc. and adding every half censored word is much
