Disability insults

Hello I am a new player here and I noticed there are quite a few toxic players that like to use "disabilities" as "insults" against other players frequently. In particular Autism, but I see "retard" and Down's Syndrome being frequently used as a way to try to insult people and I find it abhorrent. I was wondering if is possible to begin taking action against those that do this because it may offend handicapable players (or ones that aren't but have friends that are) The server is great but I was just wondering if I could get an admin's voice on this because using those terms from a non medical standpoint is simply disgusting.

If you cant handle disability insults then you might as well just turn your internet off cause you are going to be always offended.

While this is worded harshly, I concur with this statement. The Internet is full of this, and online games are no exception. Please utilize the ignore feature in the game.

Unless someone is severely verbally harassing you, bypassing ignores, etc. we do not typically intervene in this kind of behavior as it is overbearing, overprotective, and unnecessary.
