Banter is one thing flat out saying you are going to beat and stab your wife is another. My jokes are pretty surface level of "I hate women" not saying I'm going to stab them even more so as a staff member.

Its not that I don't think jokes should be allowed its more of this is on top of everything else and is being said from someone who is meant to be setting an example. As for me saying something in game to him, anything negative said towards staff even when calling them out gets taken as harassment and I myself would get in more shit than he would even if I did it in a polite manor. The point of the forum report is to show other staff members that he is not fit to be a staff member when he goes around saying he is going to beat and stab women. Why does racism get taken more seriously when domestic violence effects more people?

[quote="MsRevine" post=1313703]Okay Im sorry but as a woman I have to add my point of view. I've seen countless of people, making countless of jokes about women and etc, and some are funny, some are less, some are really offensive. I've seen you joke around about women (which I was fine with, it was banter), and many of my friends have done it too. The clip: We all know domestic violence is not a cool thing at all, but it doesn't seem like Andrew said something that other members of the community (who have not been punished or called out for it), haven't said in the past. The screenshot: That is more fucked up, I guess, but you could just tell that to him in-game, or message a staff member about it, instead of making a whole ass post on the forums, I think. It seems like the two of you got something going on between you that you need to resolve.[/quote] Banter is one thing flat out saying you are going to beat and stab your wife is another.
