    I was banned for saying the word gay. I wasn't calling someone gay who wasn't, I was referring to a guy who is legitimately gay and is proud of it. I am not gay, but I am certainly offended that this word gets *** ed out in chat and is bannable for using.

    Do you have something against gay people? You think being gay is so wrong that you would ban me for 12 hours? This game just reached a new low for me. I'm disgusted.

    I am deeply disturbed that you would ban me for saying that my gay friend at school wears yoga pants every day. How dare you Bigpoint. You need to talk to that mod.

    Hi there,

    You were banned for the following.


    0:59:51 039133907 =Lee-Everett=: g ay*

    Your comments directly before that were in fact fine, (0:59:45 039133907 =Lee-Everett=: A gay guy at my school wears em every day)
    The reason you got the ban was to say the word G ay* in the following line which clearly is trying to get a round the word filter which is bannable.

    However on this occasion I have lifted the ban as I see no intended offence,

    Thank you m8 :).

    I was merely surprised that it filtered and was trying to clarify what I said. As you put it, I meant no offense.

    I'm glad this is just a misunderstanding, and not what it initially appeared to be.

    It will not happen again, and I'm glad I now understand the cause.

    I am very happy about this, please pass on my compliments. ~Go ahead and close. ;)
