Recent slur banning example

Here is what one user said and how rainbow six responded. The user was only banned for 30 minutes apparently. What he said was something like "get a better PC n**** I don't want to wait five minutes to load in".

REMINDER: LOUNGE RULES + CONTENT POLICY

Hello everyone,
 
It seems some of you feel as if you're exempt from the rules for whatever reason -
 
and I wanted to let you know, that you're not. None of us are.
 
So, here are two links for you to read up and refresh your memory in regards to the rules of this Lounge, and Moot's official content policy:
 
 
Failure to follow the rules and the content policy can result in account timeouts and bans.
 
Arguing your (invalid) point because you feel or think you're exempt from these rules makes it worse for yourself - so think twice before concocting reasons you believe the rules do not apply to you.
 
The Lounge rules are enforced by the mods here. Please follow them.
 
Lastly - as stated in the rules - don't take post removals personally. Not a single moderator is out to get you, we're here to do our own work. We're users, just like you, and we're here to talk about our favorite games and have a good time - that includes removing the posts that sour the experience for others.
 
EDIT: If you personal message mods attacking them directly, you're gonna have a bad time.
 
Thanks!

Blackbeard Is Useless

How's everyone doing today? Welcome to my blog where I will be talking about a game that's been out for the past 3 years and is starting to get more and more popular. The game is called Rainbow Six: Siege and is in a very long line of Tom Clancy games.

Now the thing about this game is that when the developers first started to create this game it was supposed to have a story line to it and the game was originally supposed to be called Rainbow Six: Patriots. After months of not getting anywhere the project was disbanded and they started working on a multiplayer 5 on 5 shooting game. When the game was first released on beta there was a re-spawn option. When a player died after waiting for a specific period of time, they could re-spawn and continue playing. The game developers decided to remove that option due to the disadvantages that it would cause. The game was finally released on December 1st, 2015.

Within a few months of the game being released to now I have spent about let's say a good 2000+ hours on the game between PC and Xbox 1. Playing different operators and trying out new guns and implementing new strategies.

Now there is nothing wrong with the game, the game is absolutely brilliant and I love it, the only problem is that the attacker I used most is the most controversial and probably one of the most useless operators in the game. If you guess that operator being Blackbeard that is correct, if you didn't then well now you know that it's Blackbeard. When Blackbeard was first released, he only had one mountable rifle shield, but the shield had a 800 hit point which was eventually nerfed to 150 hit points but was given two shields instead of just one, but that wasn't enough apparently for he was nerfed again and this time both his shields hitpoints went from 150 to 60.

If y'all are wondering what that means or why this is important watch the videos below.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sr9mhV52wM
and
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YBo6yJFd_KI

Alright, moving on. The shield health reduction wasn't the only nerf that Blackbeard was hit by. When Blackbeard was first introduced his MK-17 AR (SCAR-H) had a damage out put of 52 with I won't say a lot of recoil, but for the gun with that much damage output the recoil was understandable. After the nerf the damage output went down to 42 and the recoil was increased. Not much was done to his SR-25 his Marksman Rifle or DMR as the damage output was reduced from 75 to 72 and the recoil was altered slightly. His ADS times were increased as well, going from .3 seconds to .7 seconds when standing still and .4 seconds to I believe .8 or .9 seconds when running.

Now people are saying, oh stop crying and stop being such a baby. Blackbeard was too OP and needed a nerf, he was almost impossible to play against, etc. Which is true yes, I will agree when Blackbeard was first released he was so busted that he had to be nerfed. ‪I being a Blackbeard main agree that when he was first released he was absolutely busted and needed nerfs. You want to nerf his ADS time that's fine, you want to nerf his shield that's fine too, but dont nerf him to the point where he is absolutely fucking useless. I won't complain about the changes to his ADS, but I will compain about his shield and his gun(s). His MK-17 damage reduction should have gone from 52 to 45 and his recoil should have been increased just slightly and his D-50 Pistol (Desert Eagle) should be removed and he should be equipped with a different pistol, the pistol is besides the point but anyways moving on. His shield needs more hit points. There are times where I can't even peak a window without getting my shield broken in two shots before seeing the enemy. How is one supposed to play Blackbeard the way he was intended when his shield is a piece of paper and get's destroyed instantly?

‪And now, AND NOW UBISOFT JUST RELEASED A UPDATE TO THE R6S TTS AND STATED THAT THEY WILL NERF BLACKBEARD AGAIN NERFING HIS SHIELD AGAIN TAKING THE SHIELD HIT POINTS FROM 60 TO 50. LIKE ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME‬? ‪FUCK YOU UBISOFT, YOU FUCKED UP MY MAIN AND YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED THE GAME. FUCKING USELESS FUCKS YOU ARE. FUCKING TAKE YOUR GAME AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR ASSHOLE YOU DEGENERATES‬

P.S. People who say that Blackbeard is still OP have never felt the pain of having their Main Operator bee constantly nerfed over the past two years only cause they are “TOO OP”. Man when you nerf a champ to the point where he can’t even do what he was originally intended to do you know there’s a problem. Every time I try to peak a windows, I don’t even get a chance to ADS on the enemy before my shield is broken and or my shield is broken and I’m dead. I mean I love Blackbeard to death cause I’ve been using him since his official release when Operation Dustline came out. I have I believe almost 200+ hours on PC on Blackbeard and I may sound like a “Salty Blackbeard Main” but either remove him or rework him STOP NERFING HIM!!!! Next nerf will be him shooting a water gun with a piece of Saran Wrap wrapped around it.

Popular[READ ME FIRST!] LOUNGE RULES, FAQs, + RESOURCES

Welcome to the Rainbow Six: Siege Lounge!
This Lounge is where our community can band together to discuss and share our love for Rainbow Six: Siege.
 
To establish and retain a fulfilling, rewarding, and ultimately enjoyable experience within our Lounge and the Moot community as a whole, we expect every member to abide by the following rules. They are enforced by the Mod team, and these rules will be enforced within our Rainbow Six: Siege Lounge
 
 
Before proceeding, please be sure to read over Moot's Content Policy:
By continuing to use the Rainbow Six: Siege Lounge, you are agreeing that you have read this post in its entirety as well as the Content Policy. All rules and content within this post are subject to change at any time without any prior notice.
 
EXPECTATIONS OF USE OF LANGUAGE
 
Due to Rainbow Six: Siege being an M-rated game, the rules regarding the use of language will be a bit lighter in our Lounge. Use of common profanity is expected and will be tolerated. Incessant, degrading, racist, vulgar or repetitious use of profanity as a whole, including profanities to insult will not be tolerated and will be deleted immediately, following a warning or a ban. See Rule 4 for more.
 
THE RULES
 
1. Self promotion of your unique content goes on the Self Promotions Board.
 
As a community-based lounge, we hope you do not use it to farm views or clicks for your personal content. If you wish to share your content, you can paste links/attach files and post them in the Self Promotions board. Links will embed - give it a second and you're good to go!
 
Any and all posts regarding commercial advertisements in any form will be immediately deleted without warning.
 
Try to follow these guidelines when posting to our Self Promotions board:
 
- Keep it related to Rainbow 6. Your channel itself may not be totally R6, but if you're promoting your content on the board, please be sure that the content you're promoting is related to Rainbow 6.
 
- Please do not spam your channel, or content. Give everyone a chance to promote their work. Do not heavily repost your work, either - constant reposts won't fly. Everyone deserves a chance to be on page 1.
 
- Do not flame other users' channels, or discriminate against other peoples' work. If someone asks for a critique, obviously go for it - but don't downtalk someone else's channel in the board. No bueno.
 
- Be kind to your fellow content-creators! Give them support, just as they hopefully will support you. I know you're all a great bunch.
 
- Please, no Discord server links/advertisements, no promotion of social media please.
 
 
2. No “Carry Me”, farming/cheesing, or cheating posts.
 
No posts regarding carrying, farming event items or cheesing mechanics - any posts including this content will be deleted without warning.
No posts enforcing, promoting, or showcasing cheating in any form - any posts including this content will result in deletion of the content, followed by an immediate ban without warning.
 
 
3. Place your posts on the correct Board.
 
Failure to place your posts within the correct Categories will see the posts be moved. Multiple, continued failures to post on the correct Board will result in following incorrect posts being deleted without warning, with a possible account timeout.
 
GENERAL is to be used for general discussion.
LOOKING FOR TEAMMATES is for players who are looking any kind of match up.
HIGHLIGHTS is for replays, shares of your plays, and the like.
MEMES are for memes. Pretty straightforward. Keep it quality. Easy on the spam.
ART is for art, and original non-highlight content. Try to credit original artists!
TIPS is for gameplay tips, sharing strategies, and so on.
SELF PROMOTIONS is for showing off your content, or channel, etc.
 
If you're really unsure where to put something, try to use your noggin and just go for it - if worse comes to worst we'll move it for you if need be.
 
 
4. Be friendly, show respect and care to all of our members.
 
This is a very simple rule to understand, and the lengths of which it will reach is grounded in common sense. Be friendly to all users, including new players, other members of Moot, the moderators, and so on.
There will be absolutely zero tolerance for flaming, witch hunting (name-shaming, doxxing), racism, sexism, bigotry, intolerable language and use of extreme vulgarity.
 
 
5. Keep all discussions about Rainbow Six: Siege.
 
Any content not directly relating to Rainbow Six: Siege will be deleted without warning. This includes memes and their content.
 
5,1. Refrain from the posting of “non-content”, including low-effort posts and spam posts.
 
We hope for, expect, and would like to promote inciteful, full and explorable content for users from all periods of joining Moot to take an interest in reading or participating in. To help establish this, any post relating to, or not relating to Rainbow Six: Siege that is low-effort or considered non-content by the mods may be subsequently removed without warning.
 
This includes but is not limited to: posts with no body content, caps-locked posts, incoherent posts, grammatically fragmented posts and/or simply posting without merit.
 
Please be sure to post your memes ON the Meme Board and to be certain you are on the right Board prior to posting. Memes wandering off from that Board will carry the potential to be deleted without warning. Have care in your posts!
 
 
6. No nudity or explicit content.
 
Keep it classy in here. No explicit or vulgar content. No highly suggestive themes. Any violations of this rule will be met with an immediate and permanent ban of the Rainbow Six: Siege Lounge.
 
 
7. NO SELLING/TRADING ACCOUNTS, begging for, asking for in-game credit/currency, asking for money, or game-sharing.
 
Don't ask other users for money, in-game currency, credit, or game-sharing in any form. These posts will be deleted immediately. If you continue, you will be banned.
 
 
Finally, if you find other users breaking any of the aforementioned rules, report them.
 
This is more or less up to the discretion of our users, and we implore that you report where you see it. You may report it via Moot's report button, as well as messaging any of the mod team directly.
REGARDING TIME-OUTS, BANS, AND REPEAT-OFFENDERS,
or:
THE UPDATE I WISH I NEVER HAD TO MAKE
 
After a lengthy and frankly exhausting string of repeat-offences (see gif above), I figured I would outline how the bans will be doled out and how to so easily avoid them.
 
1. Read the rules, and follow them.
 
Easy. SO easy. It's very obvious when a user hasn't read them.
 
 
2. Multiple repeat-offences, or, failure to follow basic guidelines after warnings.
 
This is for those of you who are having a hard time coping with step 1. I understand this is a lengthy post, but, it takes only a few minutes to read - and then you can be on your merry way posting top-tier content to share with the rest of us here on Moot.
Rule 5,1 states that some posts, especially low-effort posts may be deleted without warning. The general idea of what "low-effort" encompasses is also outlined. This is for content/spam control. We are a people of taste, such like yourself.
 
 
3. Failure to understand/follow the rules (if you read them), or flaming/antagonizing moderators/admins in light of your ban will result in... A ban.
 
This takes us back to the glorious incandescence of rule 4. This is a community where people are implored to discuss Rainbow Six: Siege. Have some fun doing it! Go talk to some users, make some connections, make friends, play games! You can bring great content to our Lounge, and be a part of our awesome ever-growing userbase.
 
 
4. Moderators do not need your consent to remove your post if it goes against the rules or guidelines of the Lounge, or Moot's Content Policy.
 
You might be upset that the thing you keep reposting that is against the rules gets deleted - it's not our fault if you fail to adhere to simple rules. We do not need your permission to do our job. Don't antagonize us for it. We play our part - we kindly ask of you the same.
 
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS, FREQUENTLY POSTED PROBLEMS
 
As I woefully read in a post once, "They didn't even read it, just deleted it."
 
This is highly untrue, as our mod team must go through each and every single post and be certain that it pertains to both the Lounge rules and the Moot Content Policy. Any posts that don’t abide by these very simple and easy-to-follow criteria are deleted.
 
The following is a fluid set of FAQs that will be updated as frequently as I can add to it, so be sure to check it often - chances are it has an answer to what you’re looking for before you post.
 
If not, post away!
 
 
 
“Why did my post get moved?”
 
It was moved because it was originally posted on the wrong Board. Be sure to check where you are posting, and what you’re posting before submitting.
 
 
“Why did my post/poll/meme/etc. get deleted?”
 
It was deleted because of the following:
 
- It was against/contained material against the rules of the Lounge.
- It was against/contained material against the Moot Content Policy.
- It was low-effort/non-content/low-quality/spam.
- It was one of the many, many meme reposts.
 
You can also check this thread out for some helpful tips about deleted content:
 
 
“Does anyone [here] play on Xbox/PS4/PC?”
 
I would certainly hope so - unless they’re just die-hard fans of Rainbow Six: Siege and wanted to share their passion for it with us here on Moot.
 
 
“Why was I banned?”
 
- Your post(s) was against/contained material against the rules of the Lounge.
- Your post(s) was against/contained material against the Moot Content Policy.
- You are a repeat-offender of low-effort/non-content/low-quality/spam.
 
 
REGARDING GAME-RELATED TECH-HELP & REFERENCES TO SUPPORT
 
We’ll all do our best, though we’re not Ubisoft Customer Support! Before you post anything that should be directed to them, please try searching first! That being said - ANYBODY who has answers, support, or help for your fellow users should please do their best to answer the questions the best they can. We’re a community, after all.

Protect your account against Hackers: The 2-Step Verification

Hey Operators,


Hacking is nothing new to Siege, but yet another youtuber caught a blatant hacker on stream revealing the whole severty of those scammer‘s deceitful actions.

I will link the video at the bottom of this post, because that guy was showing how to handle a hacker in your own team in a very exemplary manner.


The good thing is that Ubisoft did actually introduce an option to efficiently protect your account: The 2-Step Verification!

What the 2-Step Verification does is it adds an extra layer of security to your account!
If you follow the second link I will put at the bottom of this post, you can connect your phone with your Uplay-Account.

However once you activated the 2-Step Verification you will be asked to enter a randomly generated code, which was sent to the phone connected to your Uplay-Account, everytime you log into Uplay in the future.

Like that every scammer who managed to find out your ID and password will fail, because he has no acces to the unique code sent to your phone.
Another advantage is, if once you receive a code without having logged into your Account you will know somebody tried hacking it - so you can quickly come to actions.



We all put a lot of effort (and money) into Rainbow Six: Siege, so we should really care about the security of our accounts.

WEEKLY DISCUSSION 2: ELECTRIC BUGALOO: OPERATION PARA BELLUM

Hello operators,
 
It's been a while since we've done a weekly discussion, despite it being, you know, weekly.
 
To keep it simple for the meantime, I figured we could make it easy and just make this discussion straight and to the point:
 
Operation Para Bellum.
 
 
It's been 10 days since its release, which has given most of you enough time to experience Villa, Maestro and Alibi.
 
 
So, how are you feeling about the new map? The new operators? What would you change, or add, or fix (or break)?
 
Let's have an all-goes conversation in the comments.
 
PLEASE refrain from insulting eachother - I shouldn't have to say this but sometimes some of you do like to resort to insults. Keep it classy in here, or else posts will be deleted and people will get muted.

PopularEla Nerf Harsh?

I know the community is mixed about the operator "Ela" because on launch of Blood Orchid she was a nightmare to play against. But in my opinion I believe that she was nerfed hard like Blackbeard. Her weapon hits like a peashooter and most of the time I can't shoot for long periods of time or the recoil kicks in. She may be "balanced" but I wish she had less recoil that makes her bullets go all over the place. What do you guys think about her current state? I love to hear both sides... Those against and with the nerf.
