Something is going bad in armagetron

[Puuquie]

Something is going really bad in armagetron if in the X team sumo server, when I ask to a 15-year-old Spanish boy about his illness, in Spanish because he doesnt speak English, Lizmatic silenced me and tells me that only English is allowed.
Really bad when silenced crazy_beer, gluggsel, box and homo for supporting me.
And very very bad when I read in # armagetron of Lizmatic and Epsy that English, German and French are permitted and Spanish are not permitted, and that anyone who doesnt know how to speak English should stop internet, and that they hate the Spanish.
I have been playing armagetron since 8 years ago and it is the first time i saw this, and it is really sad.
I hope that not all the X players think the same thing, and I know that it is.

I find this hard to believe. Reference in the logs?

As for speaking non-English on a server with an English-only policy (provided that is communicated clearly), well, don't. However, the documented X team server policy (via "/help guidelines_language") is that non-English is only forbidden if it is used to annoy others. Whether that was the case here is, of course, impossible to tell without a chat log.

<K-Yo> Lizmatic, btw, this language thing is really annoying... in xtss

<Lizmatic> K-Yo: I dont know why its hard to speak english OR use /msg
<luke-jr> cuz English is a crappy language
<K-Yo> Lizmatic, well, I see you speak your native language on CTOS from time to time...
<Lizmatic> aside from that, everyone understands it
<Lizmatic> its allowed in CTOS
<Lizmatic> xD
<luke-jr> Lizmatic: not true
<Lizmatic> anyone who doesnt understand english SHOULD LEAVE THE INTERNET!
<K-Yo> Lizmatic, -.- that's not funny at all
<Lizmatic> I was serious..
<Lizmatic> but I'm pretty radical
<Lizmatic> maybe it is a mistake but people that talk spanish nonstop annoy me, I'm not the only one
<TaZ> It's called using the silence button
<TaZ> Not silencing all the players
<Lizmatic> hey TaZ, grownups are speaking ok? thanks
<TaZ> Lizmatic: Wow, could have fooled me
<TaZ> What are you..14?
<Lizmatic> its not a hard task to fool you
<Lizmatic> yes, yes I am 14
<TaZ> I thought so
<TaZ>
<Lizmatic> see, you're not hard to fool

15:32 * Lizmatic is not happy with spanish
15:33 <epsy> well we don't have anyone talking spanish in here do we?
...
15:35 <epsy> well, I have to admit that I hate spanish as it always seems they are talking trash
15:35 <Lizmatic> and they NEVER stop talking
15:35 <epsy> but well, you can't do much about that
15:35 <epsy> tell them to use /msg
15:35 <Lizmatic> I can silence them
15:35 <Lizmatic> :>
15:35 <epsy> since we hopefully have /msg in this game
15:36 <Lizmatic> I got into a fight with gonzap about it, told him to use /msg and he told me I'm ignorant towards other cultures
15:36 <Lizmatic> %
15:36 <epsy> well, that's just some random blahblah he learned somewhere..
15:37 <Lizmatic> tron has made me racist towards spanish ppl
15:37 <epsy> but yeah, tell him to either talk english or use /msg
15:37 <epsy> LOL same here
15:38 <epsy> I always think they talk trash & insult everyone
15:38 <epsy> anyway, I'll think about this for guidelines
15:38 <epsy> which I still should write
15:42 <Lizmatic> yay!

Maybe the problem it is only that someone with this kind of opinion shouldnt be never an admin.

¡No hablo Español!

Was that annoying? Maybe, because it's obviously only 99% true. But seriously, what the heck is wrong with people these days?

merry christmas all,a time of peace and goodwill towards all,,,(humour me for a moment),,remember when we was children playing in the garden,,making things out of lumps of mud and welcoming anyone who wanted to join in our muddy creations,,i dident seem to matter who it was,,cause HEY we had another playmate,who fully understood what the grown ups dident understand,,,,a good moral learning ground,,and a spirit we should hold onto as we grow,,we all stumble,,me included,,,but thankfully we are reminded of it from time to time,,,i think il.e end this post with a quote from a very wise man ,peace anyone ?

i must say that
black and white as forms of speech
as means of judging mankind
should be eliminated from human society

human beings are precisley the same
whatever,colour,race,creed,or
national origin they may be

15:32 <Lizmatic> if people in x team start speaking spanish or any other language aside from english (I HATE IT) can I kindly ask them to stop or else? its so friggin annoying xD
15:32 <epsy> well, we're happy with english german and french aren't we?

That was when I thought she was talking about the team we are.

And I dont use language to prevent others to understand me. You will never see in my sentence I talk about other players

Then that's perfect.

Lizmatic: Rules doesn't say other languages as English are banned, they say if one should feel annoyed in any way, they should tell it, and people must try to talk English, or use private message in case they are two.
You also discarded my chat, so for now you have your rights revoked.

[gawdzilla]

You're not leader of x, Epsy. You can't revoke anyones rights, so get over yourself please (and then read private section of x, a nice little message for you).

This topic can be locked, nobody in x is racist and there is no racism in our server, there are certain language rules though so read them over and you won't get in trouble.

[epsy]

You're not leader of x, Epsy.

No, I'm only the guy who's gonna be fired whenever something happens in our server.

certain language rules

Certain rules which you misinterpreted(and that's forgiveable), but which you then discarded.
