Bad manners enemy clan

And if you really want to bring profession into this, let's talk about the health care industry. It's very, very irritating to have clients come with a slightly sprained ankle and give staff an attitude because they don't understand that they have to wait because there are more serious matters to attend to

The emergency room is a great example. There are so many petty things people go to the ER for and it's not a good thing when the room is congested with people with sprained ankles because it sometimes leads to chaos and disorganization. Most of them are sent home and told to just follow RICE anyway

I never said it wasn't right. If someone wants medical attention and doesn't want to wait to set up an appointment with their doctor then by all means go to the emergency room. Just understand you may not be seen for a good 12+ hours because your sprained ankle is insignificant compared to people coming in with gunshot wounds

Same goes for trash talking. Fine, that person broke a rule. In the grand scheme of things, while there are grounds for them to be punished, it's a waste of time most of the time

If someone wishes to live a stuck up, tattle tale life, then go ahead

Is breaking the law ok? No. Is breaking the speed limit the right thing to do? No. If someone goes to court and says, "Your honor, I was *only* driving 1mph over the speed limit" is that a viable defense to avoid punishment? No.

Do we as a society have the time to focus on insignificant things like someone driving 1mph over the speed limit?

No.

Thank you. That being the extent of your opinion, I trust you now agree that the proper thing to do in a Supercell world where they do in fact have the resources, and place virtue on people not acting like d**ch**ags, the appropriate response is to report them, and further, that individuals should not be shamed (and instead applauded) for that behaviour.

I don't even read the clan descriptions. Meh.

Im not a big fan of rules but if we must have them, they need to be followed, and no one should feel bad about reporting breaches.

Also to the person who made the 'womanisation' comment above, just wow. Have you just woken from a 50 year coma?

This is why I never once said someone was wrong in this thread. My main purpose was to try to get people to loosen up a little. A lot of people do the wrong things, but you'd exhaust yourself as well as the authorities you report to by identifying every little wrongdoing and calling attention to it. Littering is wrong, but it takes far too much time and effort to stop the person, find a police officer, and have that person fined for littering. Using my own judgement, I'd just pick up whatever they threw on the ground and throw it in the garbage myself. If I see someone's parking meter has expired, I won't waste my time looking for a police officer and letting them know someone is 5 minutes over the limit

I'm not saying it's ok. I'm saying in the real world, some things aren't worth it

This threat is very interesting read with varying opinions, therefore I felt the need to share mine.

In your opinion some things aren't worth it. In the real world what matters differs from person to person. What may not seem to be a big deal to you, may be to others and that's just life (You cannot dictate how someone should or should not feel when wronged no matter how small you may feel it is). This is the reason why we have laws and rules. I understand your position on this but again, just because you are not offended does not mean others aren't. Be respectful and simply follow the rules, it's really not that hard and will improve everyone's overall gaming experience.

The thing is, this game has many users who are young, and being exposed to offensive things like that is not something SC wants. Otherwise, there would be no global censoring. Personally, half of the things I report aren't offensive to me, but defintely are racist/inappropriate/discriminatory slurs or bases that should be removed in order to keep a positive and fun community.

Rather than everyone having to constantly watch out for poor sports using shady tactics (like enticing people to talk trash and then getting them banned), get those poor sports banned the first time they start using the shady tactic and the whole problem will stop.

So sad so sad.. You have alot of time to waste or truly feel that your making a difference if so good for you.

But ill just compare your point to this. For every ♥♥♥♥♥ or nazi base or racial slur you report there are surely a dozen similar bases being made or slur being spoken. Similar to the corner street drug dealer the police arrest. As soon as the dealer is at the station theres a few more already on the corner...

So whats the point???

I see your really making a difference in this world and our coc community. Its a fight you cant win. Go fight for something more important.. Like homelessness, drug abuse, the envireonement. Not just kids being kids or adults talking ♥♥♥♥. No point your not helping anything.

The fact remains, once they have been banned, they won't do it again and that's the end of it. I never read clan descriptions though, unless I am looking to join.
