Thank you all for your input; it is appreciated and helpful.
As I told Agrael, I do not mind playful banter. I don't mind insults. You can dish them out if you feel the need. We all get to that point at times, but there is a line. I do have an issue with people, as Xtermy pointed out, insulting via slander to a group or class; such as faggot, nigger, jew to spell it out so there is not confusion as to what I mean. Likewise, refraining from graphic sexual references is appreciated. You will be warned, and if you chose keep it up, you may be banned. This is not necessary, and in repetition won't be tolerated. Tell them, like highlander does, to fuck off instead. And for those that are on the receiving end of such... use your mute button. I have had several older members of our community over the pat 3-4 months tell me they are not returning because of these types of situations in games. It's suppose to be fun, suppose to be relaxing. When it no longer becomes that because of spammers and haters, then I can't blame them for finding a more peaceful avenue to enjoy their time. Unfortunately this comes at a cost to the community, and I am at this point, obligated to take some action of enforcement.
