Atomic_Noodles Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Initially it was about the word for an 'Eye Twitch' Disability. The mod removed the messages okay fine. So I shifted discussions to talking about Pancakes or Waffles as the topic and the mod kept removing those too saying its inappropriate for Warframe. So after some more messages asking about other Breakfast foods in a meal (Bacon) I got suspended from Region Chat (NA one). So is Pancakes and Waffles such a touchy subject its comparable to more heinous topics? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)IdoThea Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 If I'm not mistaken rules state that you cannot discuss anything outside of Warframe in region chat? My advice is to disable region chat because you are pretty much playing with fire there. I went fool around in there when I started playing Warframe and said some dumb things and got banned from game for 2 weeks. After my ban was over first thing I did was to disable region chat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rathalio Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Honestly region chat is such an odd and wild place, it's probably better for your sake to no longer have access to it. x) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)Shodian Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Everyone knows that French toast is the superior breakfast bread. So yes the ban is justified. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvelous_A Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Oh no now mods are gonna lock this thread too and tell you to submit a ticket. Probably shove a warning point or two in your pocket too. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope I'm pretty sure that's the rule for Q and A. A lot of the time region goes off the rails and nothing happens at all, but the mods might get mad if you keep spamming or talk about unfavorable topics. For example, talks about other games or shows and stuff like that are completely fine and nobody gets banned unless they're saying something inappropriate.

Genitive Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Most likely a bot autobanned you. They are not context sensitive, so you might have triggered it by accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic_Noodles Posted September 22, 2023 Author Share Posted September 22, 2023 idk if its an actual person if its something as simple as 'Why is Volt Prime so expensive???' which got purged from the chat in 2-3s after posting. Normally such messages aren't chopped off from experience. And if i remember that rule for WF related stuff is mainly more for Q&A chat if its not a question related to WF Help. Region Chat is allowed for all forms of talk as long as its not promoting something that violates the TOS like hate speech or harassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Shaun-T-Wilson Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 (edited) Unfortunately the mods are correct in this case, region chat isn't an open forum where you can talk about anything you want. From your post it seems the mod started just by deleting inappropriate messages as a warning but when you continued, then "it" decided to suspend you for awhile so it doesnt need to keep removing non warframe related chat messages in the region chat. I suggest you look up a tailored food forum to argue the pancakes vs waffles debate Edited September 22, 2023 by (PSN)Shaun-T-Wilson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall game mods controlling our everyday conversations in literally any other game. Why the heck is a mod censoring a discussion of breakfast in a game? And people actually buy this? Wow. I'm surprised I've been criticizing the mods for years and they still haven't sent a Grineer hit squad after me.

SneakyErvin Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Just to weigh in here regarding this serious and vital subject. Pancakes (pannekaga as we call them here in skåne), the swedish kind that are similar to french crepes are the best, that or what we call "plättar" here, tiny tiny crepe-like pancakes. Chubby american pancakes or waffles of any type hold no candle to those types of pancakes. Preferably served with bacon or other salted. smoked and fried pork meat, and lingonberry, blueberry, strawberry, raspberry jam or potentially applesauce, maybe even a mix.

RLanzinger Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 @Atomic_Noodles : The "Pancakes VS Waffles" war... If it's a much dangerous as the french's "Pain au Chocolat VS Chocolatine" (strictly same thing just North-South battle over the naming) I do understand how it COULD go wild and unpredictable (🤣) but A BAN itself IS Hilarious... 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)Hellsteeth30 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 I enjoy both equally, fence sitter? Sure, but on said fence I get twice as much tasty food as you silly geese. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SneakyErvin Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 One thing people should consider if they like waffles better than pancakes is. Have you ever read a book about a waffle going on an adventure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuyver Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 This is why you don't go into region chat. As for waffles vs pancakes, I prefer pancakes with eggs but if there's sausage I prefer waffles. You can get a little syrup pocket in the waffle when you skewer it with the sausage on the fork. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numerounius Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 This has been up for 6 hours. This might be the record for longest time a post about chat moderation has stayed up. (FYI it is against Forum rules to discuss chat moderation). Yeah you aren't the first to bring up stuff like this and moderators so I suggest if you want to talk about off-topic discussions I suggest the off-topic sub-forum here on the forums or just go to a chat inbox that is not as heavily moderated with less traffic such as lobby or squad chat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)ApoX95 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 vor 6 Stunden schrieb Hexerin: Welcome to the difference between "progressive" and "oppressive". Although this statement is quite ironic when OP was talking about 'Bacon' (which is just a euphemism for the dismembered bodypart of an innocent individual that was forced to grow up in literal hell). 'oppressive' in that case would be the trivialization of the most horrible industry that exists in modern society by referring to this bodypart as mere 'food' although I doubt this is the reason why the messages were removed. They just indeed have nothing to do with Warframe. calling the removal of such messages 'oppressive' is a heavy stretch though. Messages like this have no place in region chat, I agree with that - If one wants to discuss private matters in a game then they can do so in private or clan chats but not region chat or any other public chat like Q&A. Region chat is for forming groups to play Warframe. Q&A is for asking questions in regards to Warframe. This is not Facebook. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be the mods thought you were invoking "fear" or "panic" in other players with your topic, or the topic had the potential to invoke non-cordial behavior or some such... something. Support may be able to help out with the ban if it is ongoing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobie-wan Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Crepes! Well, pancakes, waffles, and french toast are all equally welcome, just throwing gas on the fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trst Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 As a good rule of thumb for any forum (in-game or irl) when someone in a position of power is instructing you that your topic of conversation is inappropriate you should just switch to what is appropriate (in this case things about the game that don't belong in the other chats) or keep quiet. Choosing to continue to test the waters instead with different unrelated topics is asking for trouble at that point. Also it's not even an issue anyone can really say is "correct" or not as it is to the discretion of whoever owns/manages the private forum to decide what's correct or not. DE, or the mods that they allow to manage region chat, could show up one day and decide that only conversation about breakfast cereal is allowed and they'd be within their rights to enforce exactly that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)RaeOvSunshyn Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Me and a new player once got banned from chat... he for asking a game-related question, and me for responding "I can help you." I disabled it after that. Region: Where you can endlessly discuss Wisp's butt cheeks, but not pancakes and waffles. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)jaggerwanderer Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 It wasn't this strict before. But since cross play became a thing plus tons of people ruin it for the rest of us, it is what we have now. DE is trying very hard to make sure Region doesn't become a chatroom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Letter13 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Might have been a certain string that set kickbot off. In any case, we on the forums can't really assist you with these sorts of issues, you'll need to contact support if you want more clarification. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
