FURIOUS! Rant

[Tiinkerbelle]

In the music game lobby today I came across a player with the signature "Come to my room drink lots of bear". I immediately reported it..and guess what!! They didn't do anything what so ever! I got a message saying "the report button is for emergencies only". HELLO! Do you really want a player whos probibly 10-21 years old walking around VMK asking the younger players if they want some "bear"

I think they consider emergencies as being something that puts other players in danger.

While I don't think the signature is appropriate, I think there are worse things to get this upset over. Did you ask the player to change his/her signature? Did you talk to the player about it before you reported it?

i suppose thats like the time i was in the fireworks lobby just hanging, and gonna play a game when a girl comes up to me, your too close to my bay be girl - hits -, me: lol, the lady: - takes out shot gum and shoots he.add of off -, me: lol, then this bay be came up to me and said: mummy, can i try?!?, mummy: sure thing princess!, bay be: - takes gum and shoots for ever - haha u dead boy, woo is a <removed>. me:lol

all i said was lol, i reported word for word what they said and i got the same message.

 

[Tiinkerbelle]

Yes I talked to the player and he was one of those very rude dictionary dancing players.

today there was a very pg13 chat with like three boys and one girl,
two of the boys said she cheated on them, and one didnt care.
then the girl said that boy no.2 had hurt her. so the boy no.3 came up and started to pretend to hurt the boy no.2.
then there was a lot of talks of "<removed>" and "<removed>"-mostly aimed at the boys coming from the girl.
I reported them all and hopefully they chat now in vmk hell.

I've seen many many things of that sort. And I suppose VMK has gone to a very bad place seeing as they are doing nothing to the boy girl thing. They are cracking down on things that shouldn't be cracked down on right now, and they are letting things go that NEED to be cracked down on.

Why did you even say lol? That could ahve made them go furthur on with it.

I had a similar situation yesterday while getting credits from the Yeti.

Reported the girl who did this, but got the same canned response from VMK about using my ignore button.

Girl: - takes off clothes -
Girl: i look good with no clothes on
Girl: <removed>
I was shocked and disgusted. I've also seen the word "<removed>" thrown around a lot recently. It's just awful.

Thanks for listening to my vent.

YET Another rude person, with the dictionary dancing telling everyone in the room to get manners, to shut up that they are "dumbo" and talking about really really mean stuff(the birds and the bees). Yet when I report it VMK says it's nothing at all.

Yeah I've seen a guy say "I'm grey" "<removed>?" "Lol jk" in a row.

I reported him and, shock of shocks, was told to use the ignore button.

It is sad that some people feel the need to act this way in the game. Keep reporting, just because you get the 'ignore' message doesn't necessarily mean something will not be done eventually. This just helps by making sure you don't have to witness any further messages from the player in question.

I do need to ask everyone not to post direct VMK dictionary dancing quotes that end up bypassing DIS filtered words. Describing some of these shocking scenes on the boards only exposes even more to what they shouldn't ever have to see in the game. If it's something you feel needs to be reported in the game, it probably should not be posted here.

Please understand the boards need to stay family friendly.

Thank you Lori for removing the offensive words. Thanks for helping keep the boards safe for all. I forget that all ages read the boards sometimes.

first off, I'm shocked that people would do that stuff. Especially on vmk. If they want to be gross and still play games why do they just play runescape or something. Don't they know that Vmk is a family game? Or do they just don't care?
Also, when you say <removed> is that what the people really said or are you just leaving the words out? I'm just a little confused since I don't know how removed can be bad.

If you see <removed> it was probably a mod taking a word out. You can see if a post has been edited by looking at the bottom of the post.
