I used to play a lot of COD5 on XI. Left after the non-stop miserable political crap some of the players spew.

Came back again over the last week and it is worse: a bunch of people saying ignorant angry inaccurate crap.

And I shouldn't have to mute all these players each game.

I hope some kind of moderation is put in place so the server is enjoyable again--leave the ridiculous angry political shit at the door.

Exactly the knee-jerk reaction I was expecting.

You have the solution at your fingertips and have mentioned it...mute!

You can also place a bouncing betty behind the person offending you or throw a sticky at them.  Works for me!

Feel free to try some of the other servers here, it's not like that on most servers I don't think. No politics or religious talk on the ARMA servers, that shit gets shut down. Fast. You'll only only toilet humour and foul language there.

As for other CoD servers, I don't play alot of them becuase I'm shite, but the Freezetag 1 server for CoD 4 is always nice and relaxed, again no politics really.

I'm so sorry you have had this experience on our servers.  The mods and admins will certainly be more vigilant in policing this situation.

This isn't on, Players from all over come here to play and that's the response they get from one of our clan members for stating something that's completely true...

There are plenty of places for people to go and discuss politics. There are only a handful of XI servers for people to go and play games.

The Mute button is your friend, like someone else mentioned above.  That easy.

Before everyone who has never played on the server gets on their soapboxes, I can guess exactly whats happened here. I have played with them all, including the person putting in this post, and let me guess it is someone winding up dn, all usually in harmless fun. Now these people play on these servers daily and mean no harm why not ban them all and let this tckr play by himself ? seems the way you've decided before getting any facts.

I'll be more precise, as I cannot totally understand what you are saying. 

I only play on the World At War XI custom maps server (I believe there are a couple) And I have been playing COD 5 since it came out over 12 years ago.  I'm not a noob, and I am certainly not a stranger to the COD 5 community.

I have thick skin and don't mind bad language, and insults are part of the fun. 

What chaps my ass is right-wing crazies spouting endlessly about liberals and baby klillers and Pelosi and socialism and all that pathetically uninformed crap. 

To paraphrase what someone very wise said in this thread:

   You can be a shitty angry old white man pretty much everywhere. The XI COD5 servers are among the few left where you  can play COD5 online.

Thanks for your time.

No one is saying this rob, but constant blabbing about politics will start to grate on players, its better to tone it down for everyones sake not just the individuals who dont want to here it, as sammy said theres plenty of other places for them discussions to take place, keep the servers clean and peaceful best bet.

No ones disputing that mate, what I'm saying is that as usual everyone who was not there and without any evidence to prove the claims acts as judge, jury and executioner.

I'll put it another way, we have someone who by his/her own admission rarely plays on our servers, and makes claims about the behaviour of other players. Judging by his reply I would guess he's not entirely innocent, but actually if he is correct I agree with him. However immediately, without any evidence whatsoever, everyone agrees with him. My sympathies disappeared entirely with his second post, interesting to see what his 'left wing' responses were ?? Anybody playing with him want to chip in ?
