Although harassment is not something unknown to the community prior to this post, I thought I would reflect on the state of the problem as it currently stands. This thread will make me seem even more like a high school counselor, which I really couldn't care less about. Harassment generally goes hand-in-hand with drama, which @Caleb956 explained perfectly in his recent thread. (See below) Quite recently I've seen certain players/members being harassed over complete bullshit. As someone who was previously kicked out of the community entirely, I find it infuriating that staff members haven't been cracking down on the people who do it on the daily. Some specific examples of harassment going on in both CS and TF2 would be the situations surrounding @DepressedNeonNepp and @Lottamos. People constantly throw their names around as insults or attempt to troll them to the point where they will get angry, leave the server/community for x amount of time. I won't call out specific names, but I've seen plenty of members and staff partaking in these sorts of activities. As I said previously, we're a gaming community, not an exclusive club. Make people feel welcome. Please stop trying to push people out of the community. You can never really get to know a person if you constantly harass them. For example, when people pick on Nep they portray him as this toxic little asshole when he really isn't. I've seen him a few times on the CS surf server (albeit he was under an alias at the time) and he was a genuinely enjoyable person. Now, I know school shooters are kind of a touchy subject on here, but I'd like to use a TEDx Talk to illustrate my point that being kind to someone can keep them from making bad decisions. If I cross some sort of line linking the video, I can understand and invite any forum staff to go ahead and cut out this section of my rant. Although I highly encourage everyone to both read the entirety of my post and watch the entire video, I'll insert a TL;DR. TL;DR - This community is plagued with members, staff and random players that can't seem to control themselves when it comes to harassing another person online. The argument that this is the internet and you shouldn't take anything seriously is complete horseshit, stop using it. Please be kind to other players instead of antagonizing them over nothing. Staff members need to start cracking down on this sort of behavior, be a part of the solution, not part of the problem.

I cannot find your ban. I've tried searching the name and steam ID. I'm probably just a retard and fucked something up : (

Message from my brother in the Upper Peninsula. It's apparently kind of bad up there.

I feel as though I've already been baited because prior to these incessant posts I never really thought you were an enjoyable person. Stop giving people reasons to hate you. I'm honestly surprised that you even got member in the first place, seeing that most of what people say about you is negative. You've reached the point to which you are even more annoying to have around than @ThunderLimes.

I generally don't watch any shows other than anime because my family camps hard on the only two screens that have cable. With a lack of actual TV shows to watch, Hunter x Hunter and JoJo are my current favorites.

John Galt is the only 1 don't @ me.

Okay, apparently this isn't actually the Frank Sinatra cover I was looking for. The person who made this video is just dumb, and this is Morten Harket. I realized this when I actually played it today. In substitution, I present "Fly Me To The Moon," which is another good one.

Frank Sinatra will always be one of my favorites.

He didn't know until after the fact that no one could hear him.

Despite us not having the best of relationships, I can't even fathom the amount of stress you're under. GL on getting better, fam

I've never once played in a 10 man, but I thought this was common sense. Why would we not run games like this in the first place? +1 to change this shit

Dingo also pointed out that Roy continues to mic spam and ear rape on the CS servers despite him being warned several times. He obviously lacks the basic maturity becoming of a member of the community. For the near two months that I have been playing on the CS servers, I can't say that I have had a single positive encounter with him. By far one of the least fun people to play with, I've even had to leave the server a few times because I couldn't put up with it anymore. If revoking member is too harsh for this situation, I would at least push for some other form of punishment. I can't say I would be surprised to find that I'm not the only one who has this opinion.

This thread only pushes me closer to the brink of insanity.

Unless his hair is made of steel, you should probably try fixing the strap of the mask, as it is currently being held up by his hair instead of resting on his scalp. Try going for a little more detail around the mouth.

Why must people casually throw Nep's name out as an insult? You don't help anyone in any way, and you sure as hell don't make it any easier for him to better himself as a person. As someone who has been trusted with the position of admin, you should know better than to do this shit. I know for a fact that he can be a good kid, I've seen it plenty of times on the CS Surf server when he wasn't constantly ridiculed. I don't mean to make this post seem like it's targetting you, Owlknight. In fact, this should go for literally anyone who has been part of the problem. Again, you are an admin, help the kid out instead of joining everyone else. Sorry if this is derailing, it just needs to be said. This is a gaming community that was made -- not to make people feel like shit, but to feel welcome.

You could have just said "faggot" and upset the majority of the community.

gonna miss you @Caleb956 ?
