. OT: Its essentielly up to the respective teams as the the whole GG thing. Teams will just be based and characterised whether there more respectful (by saying GG) or not. On the trash talking issue, i belive the limit should be when it gets to personal aspects of peoples individual lives. Ive gotten to know quite a few people in the game, got their FB, phone numbers chat etc. But when you bring up somebody's personal life, thats when the ban hammer whould fall. Any trash talking or disputes about CF or about people's skill over the web should be allowed. If you cannot take an insult from someone you have never met and will mostly likely never meet, then how will you react to critisim in the real world?
srry for spelling mistakes lol dont really care ATM
'cLassy' opinion. Very well said. -

why thank you. your not too cLassy yourself
. I do not see any issues if the trashing limit is set to personnal. The only problem i see with that is that the administrators do not know everyones personal life, so they might encounter some difficulty in managing that aspect. However if they are competent enough, i do not see any issues.
At Bobby, lol i actually was waiting for your reply ^^ -
Enjoyable read. I agree to some point, personally I never ever start trashtalking unless someone provokes me numerous times in a short amount of time. I'm a quiet person IN GAME, everyone who has played with me or against me could confirm.
The one thing that really annoys me is when people, who CANNOT back themselves up start excessive trashtalking. I understand doop, 0zzz or Minty talking shit because, whether you like it or not, they HAVE achieved something -- and until you've achieved more than them you should NOT open your mouth. [WillOfGod is a good example here. I don't understand why is he not banned yet]
--> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYbb85yq6qw (Another example where I don't mind a bit of trashtalking, the other team got absolutely ripped in a pistol round, if I'm not mistaken. Quite funny too).
Keep on brickin' -
No... at no point should a team be trash talking in the first place.... it just makes you look stupid and immature. I respect a person that will contragulate the other even when they just lost.
Dren, if trash talking makes you play better, then you werent playing at your best in the first place....
What respect does a Number 1 team deserve when all they do is talk smack to whatever team they play.
Imagine if LifeLine did that... would they have the same respect as they do now? Or would you call them Trash-Talking A**holes?
Plus, Rust makes a good point using real life sport examples. -

Valid post, agreed on some parts and others I disagree on.
What timothy posted is what some players' mentality is based off, they thrive off trash talking and it 'forces' them to play better as they have planted an idea in their head that said player has a point to prove to the other team which is completely fine. I don't think the players you mentioned alone are the only ones who should be 'justified' for talking shit because lets face it.. you don't get that motivation and the will to win by shaking hands and hugging the team you're facing. - You talk shit, get 'rallied' up and prove to the other team that you're better than them.
But I truly agree with you on what you said about players who can't back up a single word of what they say, willofgod being a perfect example as he is completely retarted and talks mindlessly. -

The languages that will be used will not qualify for the 'T rating' because it sttes that anything that belongs in the 'T' category will only contain minimal violence and infrequent use ofstrong language. I would think Z8 have a chat filter just to meet those guidelines. -

you must not watch sports -
Only a small fraction of the world watchs baseball or w/e crap ye talk about.
And I agree with paul [if it was paul......or slaya >.>]
If u wanna use real life sports. I can prove u wrong.
NHL: red wings vrs Colorado talked crap an now is a big rivalry.
MLB: Yankees and red sox talk crap bigggg rivals.
NFL: jets and new England talk crap.
College football: Michigan and Ohio state talk crap.
Those teams hate eachother and talk soooooo much sh1t. Ppl talk crap its natural..why respect a team that wants to beat you.
EDIT: if you want proof of a rival that I posted go to YouTube and type in Detroit red wings vrs Colorado brawl.
I would link but my phone is bein gay -

Fantastic. I'm always up for a football chat.
Or F1 or hurling ofc.......
Tbh, I don't get the attraction with baseball and that rubbish. I suppose its still better than cricket tho..... [amusing that like 10 people in the whole country play the crappy sport and we beat England at their own game..................] -
Let's keep this eSports please...

I'm assuming eSports is new to you, and that's cool. Now's the time to learn and enjoy what it brings. Some banter in-game makes for a great show. And for some people it actually fires them up to play better. It's a thing of confidence.
On the topic of #1 Teams talking smack; The only real eSports reference I can make that's universal in understanding would be 3D.NY and LA CompLexity. These two teams...talked immense amounts of sh*t. Not only them, but their GM's were no choir boys. And you won't meet too many more respected players and personnel then Craig Levine & Rambo + 3D.NY and Jason Lake & fRod + CompLexity [two of the most respected individuals [GM's] hands down in all of eSports; Both sides with the biggest rivalry in CS + trash talking. The founding fathers].....Characters build community. People follow teams for being teams. It's one thing to be cool with a team because they're a good group of guys. But I can ASSURE YOU, LifeLine doesn't have their following for being 'respectful'. Like any team...you follow for the talent and players. You can't sell 50% of anything...Disallowing players building character(s) is disallowing half of that player. A player can talk trash in and around a match [prior/post] and have the ability to switch it off. FPS eSports is a mental game too... -

Trash talking in proffesional sports is usually fictional. It's made to bring in more viewers. -

Read my post again. -
Two top-notch teams going at each other is exciting; but if they build up a rivalry, more people will watch it. Common sense.
....I seriously think you have a problem.clearly you don't watch hockey. Go to YouTube type in Detroit vrs Colarado see what happens then come here again.
