Valve's forgotten game: Team Fortress 2's shocking toxicity problem By Eurogamer

Really starting to feel we're slowly drifting off-topic to something we've been through before.

I can understand you might perceive something Dan could have said as toxic. If you feel like his speech was inappropriate or toxic, you could confront him about it and shed light why you feel his behavior made you feel sour. An alternative of course would be to mute him, if that's what you desire. It shouldn't be a life changer to consider just blatantly muting them if you don't want to hear it.

I really doubt Valve is going to invest into a self-learning system, which would still be very prone to false positives without tons and tons of material to develop upon.

why would I confront a toxic player, they will just be rude to me to say to shut f*ck up being he is better than me. I am not going to get yelled at him just because I told him to be a bit nicer. I know that he is big on this site, so he would just go tell one of the staff members that his guy who is below him is telling him to not be toxic then one of the staff members would just say something like, forget about him, while not punishing for being toxic.

They could just by the tec from Google or another manufacturer.

I dont think anyone on tf2m would rip on someone for being worse than them, and I think our rules are pretty clear on toxicity, if you thought someone was being toxic they would be dealt with.


However pubstomping and player ability isnt remotely what this article is about.

If you think I acted toxic during a gameday or an imp or something, then I'm sorry. Anything remotely rude I say is only jokes towards friends that I know can take it, and I take my fair share in return.

you are aware that this whole controversy is not even a little bit about pubstomping, yes?

There is a connection to pubstoming. Diva Dan was pubstoming in the server and he was being toxic about it.

i think you're badly misundetstanding how serious the behaviour being discussed here is, and how far it is from "sux 2 suck lol"

Hey congrats you managed to turn an article about people being abused about their identify, sexually harassed and sexually abused, doxxed, had death threats made against them, been threatened with lawsuits, among many other much more horrible things done to them than being beaten in a video game, about yourself being pubstomped.

The connection LSF is talking about is the lack of connection any of this has to do with the article you created this thread about. If you think I'm pubstomping or being toxic you can tell me about it, but I've honestly never heard anything from anyone else that I act toxic or rude.

You seem to have a thing against me which is fine, I can't stop you, but the subject has derailed from the serious topic the article discusses. Because of this, I'm locking the thread, and a new post will be created

Also the irony in someone who anonymously leaves undeserved and rude negative feedback on people's maps (that they often haven't played) complaining about people being toxic...
