General Discussion - Hoping for moderation on global chat for poe 2 - Forum

In game chat moderation is done through reports, and they moderate a lot in PoE1 going by the amount of whining on the forums about getting muted, and they are doing it in PoE2 DO NOT think that GGG have the staff to just sit there in chat parsing every line of text on all channels, especially when most of their support team will be dealing with the back log of emails.

Toxic chat? Jeez, as someone who's played Diablo Immortal and ESO I can say PoE chat is one of the nicest chats I've been in. You can always hide global or report and block.	Posted by lusshtgarel#3759 on Dec 26, 2024, 9:18:17 PM Quote this Post
Oh absolutely, heavy moderation is required for some chats in game, People should not be permitted to behave the way they do in some global channels.

This is why it is important to educate children and prepare them for the inevitable, simply forbidding them will not be enough to protect them. Might actually be worse because when they inevitably do something forbidden, they won't know how to deal with it Last edited by ZaruenVoresu#5823 on Dec 27, 2024, 7:39:53 AM	Posted by ZaruenVoresu#5823 on Dec 27, 2024, 6:45:52 AM Quote this Post

i don't think the "my kids" argument holds any value in a game rated M.	Posted by teksuoPOE#2987 on Dec 27, 2024, 7:58:00 PM Quote this Post

I don't think people are even playing the game, just using it as a chatroom for off topic discussions that are very toxic and rated R. I don't see how this is not moderated. This should 100% not be allowed. I would not let my kids play this game just on the chat alone. There's people talking about mass shootings and killings kids in school in the global chat. If it's like this for poe 2 you can rest assured A LOT of parents will be pulling their kids from this game. Please moderate these global chats and maybe clean it up a bit. POE 2 should not be like this. If people were actually discussing the game I wouldn't be logging out. I'm so disgusted by what I'm witnessing take place in poe global chat that I'm honestly just turning the game off for the night. I'll go back to hardcore tomorrow when my friends log on, but you can't even find anyone to play with. It's just toxic discussions about random nonsense that isn't even related to the game. Kind of puts me off from poe 1. I am now remembering why I stopped playing this game to begin with. Why would you let your kid play a game that is rated 18+? what type of parent are you, dude? That sounds worse than anything that is said on chat. A system that IS automatically filtered that you have to actively go into options and switch off by the way. That's like taking your kid to the theater to show a screening of the classic "Boogie Nights" and getting upset at the film makers for what you and your kids saw, NOT the fact that it was rated a certain way and YOU decided to enter. Did you think that the 18+ was just an illusion, something to help "sell" a free to play game? If you can show me a G rated ARPG that is like Diablo, I am all ears.
