Whatever happened to manners?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

I don't want to derail the thread any further, but this made me laugh. Especially since I imagined it being said in this voice

The more I play, the more friends I acquire, the more likely I am to be in a private party and don't have to listen to random slurs from juvenile fuck stains. (Did I just contradict myself there?) :P

I don't really play online but I woulden't mind. I never was offended by language. The only thing that ever really offended me was the very act of getting offended. People getting angry over stupid things offend me.

I'd love it so that I could have a filter that disallowed anyone with a single bad rating to play with me, maybe that would flush out the vast majority of children and douchebags on XBL?
I would like to be able to do this too.

Also, you and I should play on SFIV sometime. I like the game, but I'm getting bored with it because I'm sick of losing all the time, but I don't mind if I have someone cool to spar with and learn from.
Do you have SFIV for 360? It's the only platform I have it for... If so then shoot me up, GT is same as my username.

I dont mind casual smack talk in online games, but "faggot" and "nigger" go too damn far. Thats when I get pissed.

Oh, I thought it was Steam. I don't have a 360. Too bad.

I don't know about all of them, but i know friends who would do it for fun. They actually are looking to exchange curse words. I am not sure if there are people who do it because they are racist or haters and just want to take it out on the world, supposedly some one calls you a "nigger" , he does not even know how u look like so i am not sure he meant it.

I think the solution would be like private torrent sites, private online gamers. Separate the good community from the bad community, maybe like facebook groups. Those who play shooters, those who are Japanese, those who are looking for a "mannered" game time and so on
