    however, it is easier to moderate text chat rather than voice chat. unless they place a moderator in each channel, then.... what? ban them from voice chat? The only means of communication in the game? Maybe just an area chat ban?

    I have given up on area chat and now the only thing that irritates me is having to hear the blaring noise for the 5 second countdown i have to wait in order to leave the chat. How about a setting to not join any chat when logging in? Ah me and my foolish notions......

    Heh, yeah lets all sit and sing cumbaya and wait till all people turn decent and honest. This is getting really absurd.

    If you are not part of the solution you are part of the problem.

    Right, so you are saying that idea of vocie chat and no text chat is perfect, its just very few bad, bad people sometimes spoil the fun. So where is your solution, or you just gonna throw another cliche at me?

    That was quite tame to what I have heard on voice chat, seriously it was.There was the guy who decided to be a semi naked D.J. and blast his (Crap) choice of music, then there was the kid who I could only hazard a guess at being a teenager who had drunk his first half a pint of shandy, then started shouting at every one and became racially abusive.

    I do envy the P.C players not having to put up with that and to the O.P a turn your speakers down notice would have been nice lol :D
    Me? I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid.

    With most of the shame being on Zenimax for zero policing of racial slurs being screamed in game , but boy you better not disparage them on the forums because they are right on top of that :)

    Yes, I read your follow-up. It was just the point of the typical "well she was wearing X" misogynist attitude :|

    I feel bad for the decent console gamers :( It's not even funny from a PC pov anymore (to me). Everyone deserves to enjoy Tamriel in a friendly, enjoyable manner.

    Tend to agree @Psychobunni and I hate consolers (nothing personal, just part of the pcmr).

    @ZOS_GinaBruno Seriously, is this something you guys actually want from the community aspect? I mean, I know on the whole, console gamers (general statement here) are younger and potentially more annoying but I really don't see the problem throwing in a console chat for it.

    Sure it's going to be awkward and hard to use, and I'm sure you worried about implementing something that the community will go "Oh, that's the best you can do" but maybe actually have a conversation with people, at a scheduled time, in Twitch even, talking about it and getting peoples thoughts and feedback.

    Give reasons why "such and such" cant be implemented....or highlight potential solutions and see what the feedback is?

    Just a thought.... *shrugs*

    True, They're probably not supposed to but i imagine many do. but i suppose the ones who do it sneakily already show their lack of faith in the system. So wear whatever they like.

    It's disgusting that anyone here thinks in any way that this is acceptable behavior in any way. It's not funny nor amusing to hear complete worthless trash in game yell racial remarks , berate women , and generally ruin the game for many. Why their accounts are not immediately and permanently banned upon evidence of it is beyond me.

    Agreed. I honestly don't know how ZOS ever thought that area voice chat was a good idea, given how impossible it is to moderate. At least with text chat, when a player decides to spew disgusting hate everywhere, there's a log that can be reviewed to get them banned.

    Even if there was an option to always globally mute area chat (which my understanding is that there isn't), without text chat available, there'd be no way to communicate with the decent crowd.

    I'm also surprised by how convoluted the "block" option seems to be...

    I'm saying I am decent to people and people who are not decent are not worth my time. It's a pretty simple concept. It sucks that people find enjoyment by running other people fun but I don't let it effect people. None of it is my decision and I make the best out of what was given. I wouldn't mind if they added chat. I think chat would be awesome but I still have fun despite horrible people that treat people bad. You can try to bate me into an argument about it all you want but you don't have the ability to ruin my time so I hope you cheer up and have a great day. Nameste
