eh, the whole censoring of "gg ez" just made people spam it even more because of how silly the replacements are lol

I'm not the kind of guy to say "gg ez" but I do in overwatch just for what it switches it too

It was obviously a joke.
lame.

well if you do that people are still gonna think you're saying gg ez so its still lame but i spam it sometimes lol
Tbh seeing more games do this is disapointing
I'd legitimately rather let people say whatever they want
Overwatch's gameplay lends itself very well to toxicity and it's become a pretty notable issue, especially in competitive. Moderation of this sort of thing is required because otherwise it starts running pretty rampant because trying to get communities to self-moderate, in short, doesn't work. I'm not going to shed tears over anyone who gets banned thanks to Overwatch's new rules. It isn't even difficult to not be completely salty and ruin the experience for others.
Great details you've provided us blizzard.
I'm kinda fine with this happening for quickplay and am certainly on board for competitive matches.
They say Mobas are the most toxic kind of games but Overwatch is the only game I´ve seen like the entire team, both enemy and your own, completely melt, match stopping completely, from squabbling and petty insult-slinging.

I seriously can't wrap my head around this logic. You guys ever considered that it's a lot more fun to play the game without listening to people whine and bitch at each other the whole time? How is it wrong to punish people for behaving like stupid little shits?

totally ok for punishing the severe shit heads if they're shitty enough and get enough legit reports
however I'm worried that it'll become a trend and more devs will do what the Fri13th / PUBG devs are doing and ban for really idiotic and inane reasons

that being said these are still secluded incidents and I'm probably sensationalizing that it'll become a trend by even mentioning that, as it isn't right now, so obviously its not like, such a huge problem that its happening everywhere.
But I merely hope that online games don't get too ban happy, it would be a really shitty thing to be banned from a game like this, asshole or not, without having actually done much or anything at all to deserve it
I'm used to games that you'd literally never be punished for stuff like this after all.

I agree but in teamwork-heavy games like Overwatch and a lot of MOBAs it's really important that people don't get away with acting like dickholes. No matter how much fun I'm having otherwise, if there's ONE guy on my team being a jackass and throwing, it's gonna completely ruin the game for the 11 other people on the server
Honestly anyone that says 'ez' is baiting/trolling, they can seriously get fucked.

If these two letters actually get you mad, maybe it's time to quit playing.
I think generally it is not so much the letters themselves as the attitude behind them.

What about this one?: ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I mean, I'll admit, the idea that someone just can't be a good sport can be a little agitating. I don't get [i]mad[/i], but it can be a mild annoyance and make me want to stop playing if people just can't have fun without trying to get under other people's skin.

What a crap argument that is, you say two letters and it sounds ridiculous yeah, but when it's short for easy or that was easy, it's mocking your opponent, so don't be saying it's time to quit playing when someone is mocking me when I'm not a 4 star Genji main that unsurprisingly did well or "carried".
I do quit out of lobbies when people start acting like douches though, so I don't just sit through someone acting like that, I do something about it.

Quitting lobbies over some dumb memes
that's embarrassing
Imagine getting your jimmies rustled by bad attempts to be funny.

I spam memes in chat to show how much I don't care about the game lol! I'm not mad!! you're mad!!
Last time someone hurt my heart with bad words in a videogame I muted him. Now my heart doesn't hurt.
You should try it

I think it's more embarrassing to act like a douche tbh

I didn't realise it was embarrassing to get out of situations that make you uncomfortable without losing the plot.

Set aside the macho act dude, just because I like playing games with sincere and fun people doesn't make me a snowflake. I couldn't care less if some stranger calls me a fag. It ruins the fun when someone wants to act like a child and pretend not to know how to play the game.
If you're okay with that sort of thing maybe you need to reevaluate why you're playing a game in the first place?
