Team Fortress 2 / Re: Racism in game

Right that is strange, maybe I misunderstood a kick. All the message said was 'fuck off'.

Anyhow I read the rules, 'Racism Using racist, sexist or otherwise offensive comments or words in the foray in any context towards any person. This includes excessive profanity, and over use of the word racist.' but I guess that this actually doesn't apply to racist imagery or impersonation of certain characters so I was fully in the wrong for calling out someone appearing in the way they did. I apologize for being in the wrong  but I still wonder if this needs to be amended to include racist imagery as well as racist speech.

Gloveslap is my IGN, the ban may have been lifted. The ban was not my main concern anyhow. But thankyou for directing me towards your rules post.

Team Fortress 2 / Racism in game

I was playing on the Getsome TF2 Trade #1 server today, when someone was showing off and getting great amusement from his Nazi/hitler outfit that he had created. I took found this to be racist and offensive as a symbol of what the Nazi party stood for, so I stood up against it. Some of the language I used was less than savory, which did land me a ban. Yet the admins had no problem with the implied racism of the outfit, essentially passively supporting it. While I would like to get unbanned, that is not the main topic of this post, and if I don't get unbanned for swearing that is fine, I take responsibility for what I said. But I would like to know Getsome's stance on racism and if it is fine with it on its servers, is someone able to play with a swastika tag and spray it all over maps? or is there a line that you draw somewhere, I would also like to know why the admins/mods on thought me standing up against a symbol of racism was worse than the symbol itself. I know that without attachments this post lacks much to stand up against, but its purpose was not to single the person out, but more to clarify Getsomes position on racism and racist symbols and I was advised to make a post about it by Majestic Dragon in game at the time I was banned.

Thanks,

Gloveslap

Just a damage report screenshot to add to Cry's report. This was a separate incident on a different day (8th March) but still involving Donnybot. Around 1:12 PM NZ time.
