Super edgy Twitch chat humor is "toxic" if you've been on the internet for less than five minutes. Aethor acts like he discovered Twitch five days ago, but it's the furthest thing from toxic if you're aware of internet culture even remotely.
What's really bothering me that Foxka touched on is this self-fulfilling prophecy of everyone pointing fingers at each other and labeling them toxic to fulfill this vendetta against players simply because you don't like the way they display themselves. I can't say that's what's going on here, but lately all I've seen is, "Oh, that/he/her/ is toxic," followed up with such reaching examples. I guess I'm siding with Aethor because I get the sense of humor, but I also don't agree with him because not everyone is an IcePoseidon, Tyler1 and Asmongold viewer that understands sperg, trihard humor.
I've always stood firm on the position that people online need to stop being sheltered from difference of personalities and humor, but protected from true grotesque actions which is super rare- pedophilia, beastiality and the likes.
To add, I've dicked around killing people with props too without a wrist-slap or even a mention it's against the rules. Is there a vendetta against certain players? Fuck if I know, but it happens and that's all I care to know. There's an umbrella of categories a player fits into, and if for some reason you want that player removed, you pour categories over them hoping that one of them sticks.
Also, I'm going to argue to stop heavily punishing your dedicated players. It's fair to use them as examples, but not fair to put them on a pike to be displayed. These punishments recently have been draconian, and it bothers me knowing the gun gets jumped from 0 to 100 almost instantly. No, dedicated members are not immune to punishment, but leniency should be deployed based on their situations followed by proper handling. I've held my tongue for a bit, but this is really upsetting to know the server is deliberately eliminating their core members.
Aethor, this is simply for you: not everyone understands the Twitch humor, so stop being a :trihard emote:, ni- nerd. Remember, when approached by a staff member, you reply Yes, Sir and Yes, Ma'am, ok? Be on your Ps and Qs.
tl;dr: +1, I guess?
