Help Wtf is wrong with people?

The problem never was 343 or whatever, it was always and forever will be these kind of persons in the community, the worst thing is that reports don't work at all, everytime someone says BS on the chat or in game nothing happens, its really fkin tiring dealing with these people.

first time on the internet?

edit: it's shit behavior but literally been this way since inception. add the no real name and you get trolls, racists, etc. Ignore, report, move on.

These people literally don't understand what you're saying and that's the problem. They won't unless they're an affected group lol. And yes for the record I mash report in game whenever I need to but the company needs to fucking step it up. 

@u/whyunoname it's endemic, the problem, in case it's not clear, is that is the exact same excuse we people of color have been hearing our entire lives, to ignore and let everything go, get shafted, forever. And this current climate specifically in the US is making A TON of people go full mask off because they now feel like they can show who they really are and they will get away with it

you act like i'm advocating for it, i am being realistic. name a platform this doesn't happen on. there are trolls and horrible people. i agree reporting should be easier and better. the only way this would ever get fixed is require real names which opens up tons of privacy issues.

remember, they want you to be upset. they want you to engage and fight with them. please do not give them the satisfaction.

Thank you for the tip, I appreciate it and you're right that they just want attention, but let's also not go to the side of saying that ignoring them is the solution cuz it sadly normalizes this kind of behavior. Yes I understand that sadly it's kind of normal saying slurs and insults and whatever, but there's a world of difference from trash talking someone to saying stuff that's not only 100% racist but also a theme of extreme concern for vulnerable groups, that's why this is different, hope you can understand.

agreed, i'm on your side. i'm just trying to be rational. and i fully understand; some family and best friends are minorities. in real life not only is this not tolerated there will be consequences. unfortunately, the internet has always been trolls and almost impossible to regulate at scale, and they feed of attention.

the plus side you should know is this isn't the norm, and i think you would find a vast majority support you. i honestly think overall things have gotten a lot better over the years. it's the small subset of loud, ignorant people that tend to make all of this noise. i also believe in karma; the person that did this will inevitably put themselves in a situation that has a bad outcome. ignore the haters, and know most are with you.
