Forums are GM moderated, what about ingame?

I am an adult, I will just say OVER 30, lol..dont want to say how old. And I really must ask. Does anyone from Blizzard ever go ingame on any of these servers and see what goes on in the trade channel or in the BG chats. I am really tired of the constant, and I do mean Constant [Orcish] LoL ANAL %#%** or [Orcish] NO %#%** NO ANAL that goes on. This evening on my server i counted this 32 times within 1 hour in the trade channel. This is pathetic, rude, childish, and downright immature. I have reported it over and over and over and am tired of spending my time reporting it. It makers one wonder if blizzard really cares at all that this goes on ingame.

Hmm, how convenient, i see that in the forums it wont show up, the scrambled words you see are NBOMBS, i realize there is a filter you can use ingame, but we shouldnt have to use that. Blizzard should be more vigilant in moderating the chat. Im not offended by normal cuss words, i am an adult, but i am offended by racial slurs.

If you are asking if we 'patrol', no - and we never have and it's simply not feasible to do so.

There are well over 200 (nearly 300) realms in the US region alone, x 2 factions if you were only talking about just Trade Chat.

What we do, however, is respond to reports that players make regarding rules violations.

The mature language filter gives no one the 'right' to violate our policies, but it does keep it off YOUR screen. I always have mine turned on :)
