Disgusting

Squidslinger Gilder:
Yeah Muse does check stuff.

If you can screenshot incidents, do it. F12 in steam does screenshot. I threatened to report a bunch of kids for their behavior and was reported in turn. Only found out cause Muse suddenly came after me. Then to find out other trolls had reported me in the past too. I kept screenshots of the main incident to prove what was happening. Guess it helped a little.

But honestly, I'm not really satisfied with the system. Can report trolls but trolls can abuse it just the same. I told some crewmates what I had been reported for and they went "seriously?" They know that is not how I act. Now I've gone from a "kick button is not necessary and has a chance for abuse" stance to a "WE NEED KICK BUTTON!" stance.

Course if it hadn't have been for Pakkela, tarcide would have never been weaponized. So I guess thats one positive for trolls. They sometimes inadvertently help you figure out new tricks. But, I'd still never unblock him.

My experience has been that when I see it in regional, before I can even write my own harsh reply, a few dozen CA's and devs come out of the woodworks and put it down like a California wildfire. Never have I seen such commendable response time from a company.

Letus:
Since that huge influx of...YOLOSWAGCALLOFDUTY a couple weeks ago...the regional chat has gone a bit...out there...it's internet

However, this game...well the old people at least...pride themselves in the community image they have worked for...and many CA's are around at all times (though they may be in game) and there are a couple Devs that lurk (who will get in my stalking list, by the way,) and there are us, players who will report people like that.

So I know it has been stated, but you can always report these people, and I will thank everyone who does that.  MUSE looks at all their reports.

I will also apologize for any past and future transgressions, that stuff isn't us.

Lord Dick Tim:
Keep in mind that most of these players are looking for an audience, attention seeking and belligerence tend to go hand in hand.
I'm not saying turn the other cheek, by all means report away, but also understand that you do have power to isolate a troll, which is the ultimate weapon against them.

Leaving a lobby with a group because of an abusive player, creating a private match and inviting people via pm or regional announcement.  I've seen it used to good affect to exclude a particular player from harassing others.  The block feature is also equally important, just don't try to confront them.
As its been said we do tend to come out of the wood work when somebody starts raging in local, but we the CAs are just voulenteers so we won't be around all the time.  Gotta use that report feature, I can't emphasize that enough, so proper action can be taken against players who abuse the common rules of decency that govern the play space.

Arnox:
Sad but true. Each time I'm logging to the game, the chat is full of homophobic, racist sentences and similar behaviours. My strong french accent helped me to "win" some nice xenophobic pikes aswell. It's already hard enough to try to communicate with your crew/team members with the perma spam without eye-bleeding in the process.

For me Gun of Icarus was a game with not so huge, but mature community where you were enjoying a dieselpunk game and meeting players from all around the world. Not anymore since a few weeks, or in rarer occasions. While I was glad to be a part of this communinty, LoL/CoD fanboyzz wave kinda lowered, neutered even, my will to log back.

I know we already asked a stronger in-game moderation tool  than the block option, and I'm sure Muse people and CAs, as usual, are working hard to maintain things clean. But I think they are losing a lot of human resource in the process. Smart and creative solution would be nice.
