Finally...the way this post should have gone (with humor). Plz close this damn post. I hear you Akomine. I also hear you other guys. I did retaliate and later found out that one of the players is a kid. I'm embarrassed by my own actions. I guess I am not used to the direct way in which people talk openly on the internet. I became disabled and got back into gaming after like 20 years. I'm finding that this is the way it is now. Maybe this isn't for me.

I'm sorry for anything I said that may have upset anyone. I'll check in from time to time.

Akomine, you said about me...It's interesting that upon learning that this server allows free speech... you decided to not be a nice person and share interesting (and perhaps controversial) ideas, but instead to BE A COMPLETE ASSHOLE.

Wow Akomine!!! I think your definition of "free speech" is skewed a bit. Again, I didn't curse at you or say anything crappy. I was sarcastic. Yet, you said I am being a complete asshole. Where the fuck do you get off dude? There you go. Free speech at it's finest. You and this server are fucked up. Can I say that? At this point, thanks to you and the freindly staff, I strongly feel the need to state whatever I want to. IDK...icing on the cake. Lol.

Now, why do you want to be an asshole the second I learned I could be one? Wait, did I call you an asshole? It is perplexing to me that most of the people who have responded to this post have done so negatively. Maybe it indicates the lack of respect that people generally have for each other online. I'm not sure why, but it's disgusting, and really, I don't care for it...or for them. Those are their flaws. but, the owner and the staff are the ones that set the example. NOT GOOD!!!

Okay, all kidding aside. It didn't take long for me to lose respect for a bunch of you and I'm dismayed at how this conversation has gone. None of you know me and how much I help others, that I have adopted children, and something as simple as not eating meat based on the cruelty in which slaughterhouses operate. Does any of it matter? No, not at all to you guys. But, if you knew me, you would understand where I am coming from. Look at the original post. I asked a player not to use certain words. He used them repeatedly and called me those words. I found out later that he is an eleven year old kid. So be it. It strikes me as odd that it is okay for an eleven year old to be allowed to say those types of things to a forty year old man. People that allow those types of actions are BEING ASSHOLES! It WAS malicious at that point. It went beyond a word. So, let me make sure I understand this so called "freedom of speech" thing on this server. Generally speaking...I can call a player something disgusting, over and over in a spam message? That is allowed? If the other player asks me to stop, I can just continue to call them disgusting things? They can just ignore me. That is the solution? Where do you draw the line Ako? Surely you have principles that go beyond having the ability to say anything that is loosely termed "freedom of speech". To me, freedom of speech is when you are allowed to express what you are thinking while not insulting others. You can't stop everyone from saying everything that you don't want them to and that certain words will offend people differently. I clearly acknowledged that in an earlier post.

Okay, time for everyone to chime in and make me feel even better about things here. Lighten up guys. This started as a simple post about not understanding how a player could get away with what he did.

PS... I especially like the added pictures with the word faggot in it and being called a dick, an asshole, and whatever else. Thanks a lot guys!

Okay. I am totally cool with all responses. I don't totally agree, but that's what forums and debates are about. That being said, I will feel free to exercise my rights and to say anything at any time, without any regard for others and the comfort of knowing my owner and admins won't censor me. This is enlightening actually. I have the freedom to be a total jerk now. I am glad to see that nobody minds.

Thanks for the responses guys.

Oh, I would play, but the server is down again.

I guess it was wrong to assume that not being a douche included not using words that have such negative connotations attached to them. Especially when the player name calls you a nigger faggot, but even then it doesn't seem to matter. It becomes personal then, doesn't it? I guess we can say anything we want. So, I brought the players' mothers into it (I know, very mature). But, just because we can, should we? People use the internet, religion, the NRA, human rights, the bible and every other excuse to justify being rude or hurtful. It ends when paying members have had enough. The simple truth is that I am rethinking my membership here. It should be fun for all, not just for those that want to be assholes because they can get away with it. I made a simple request.  There is no real answer for "when is it enough." Everyone has different opinions as to what is offensive or to what extent. It would be nice for players to respect others' wishes. That seems fair.They can finally say and do whatever they want. Unfortunately, this is the type of environment where twelve year olds thrive. Way to go minecraft!!!

Finally, too bad because I didn't mute/ignore someone. Maybe I should call you are a douche for saying it, like somehow it solves the problem. It still persists, but the offender has free reign to continue when you ignore. I know I'm not the only player here. If I am odd man out, then so be it. People can disagree and that is fine. But you are wrong for calling me a douche because I don't agree with you. Freedom of speech is just that...the right to disagree. That is it's purpose. Name calling and putting people down was not it's intended purpose. Use your head.

I can't believe that Aysun told me that the word fag or faggot is allowed on this server. I had 2 players calling me a faggot nigger because I asked them not to use a those words. Is this really the policy? What about not being a douche? When players keep name calling and showing total disrespect, there should be an admin that steps up. Where does the Douche policy kick in?

Just as a note of reference, I am referring Puddin9609 and michaeldawg101. I will follow the rules as listed in the original post, but this is just insurance.
