Banned for speaking Russian, or...?

I mean, does anyone who gets banned get a reason for the ban? I get what you want from OP but you are asking something impossible.

Also, I just listen to voice chat and do nat talk but I don’t think that it is impolite to speak a non-english language. It’s okay to ask if anyone gets your language ina lobby but after it is better to switch to english if noone responds.

If 3 out of 4 speak Russian, I can’t speak? And if the 4th one doesn’t know English, should he remain silent?

In no way do I blame you for not knowing the language. I’m just saying that I repeatedly encounter people reacting aggressively to my speech or chat. Damn, they have a mute button, are they stupid enough to use it?

Dawg, what did you say in Russian that got you a 1 week ban? You’ll need to give us more context if you want some kind of community action to be taken.

I’m not saying that I was banned for my language, it just so happened that over the past 2 weeks I’ve been receiving too much negativity specifically for my language, and today I received a ban. And in this damn online game, of course, conflicts happen, but banning them for a whole week is too much, it looks as if I’m making demands on their language for all the complaints.

Don’t know - but if I don’t give a reason for a ban how should the offender know what behaviour needs correction? If FS doesn’t give reasons for bans that is a problem on its own.

I get what you mean - but why not ask on English then?

Still means you‘d exclude one from the conversation. And if I can‘t speak in a way my fellow players will understand then yes - silence is preferable.

To be honest I never had to use mute until now as voice chat in my pub games was mostly helpful (and obviously English)

If someone voice chatted in French or Spanish to me I‘d tell them „English pls“ the first „English or shut up“ the second time…

I understand now that you feel you’re getting unfair treatment from other players based on the fact that you speak Russian. I’m sorry you’re feeling that way. It absolutely sucks that someone would treat someone crappy based on the circumstances of their birth or life.

None of us knows why these toxic jerks are being toxic jerks. But I sympathize with you, and I would strongly recommend that you just turn off voice chat.

I have played hundreds of hours with VC off at the highest difficulties, and the tag/callout system is all anyone needs.

How could you tell that they are even talking to you? I have different language speakers in my area. Should i try the same thing on them irl?

In addition to the negative elements, I also encounter a lot of positive ones, I have cooperated with many people thanks to voice chat, so I don’t really want to turn it off. It would be nice to have, in addition to the complaints system, also a rewards system, otherwise it turns out that you can block anyone’s account simply because you don’t like him or his game. And blind bans based on complaints are the most crap that you can think of in a team game.

This is freshly created user account, with a story straight from a troll farm, just lock this.

Is my Steam account also created recently?

You have no idea what is happening in my country now, and you are align everyone into one.

Here we go! I knew this thread will come down to this

I couldn’t care about your Steam account. Your story is based on your assumption you were banned for speaking Russian. You don’t specify where you were banned either. Whereever that happened, it had nothing to do with you being Russian, and everything with someone reporting you, chat / VOIP evidence and you breaking the rules.

Do you know the real reason for the ban? I’m not. I just put two and two together, increased aggression specifically towards my language in recent weeks + today’s ban.

If you think that’s the same I can’t help you.


Which one is it? Time to rename the thread and rewrite your claim? Time to contact the game support, this forum isn’t the place. Just mind if this is a time based ban, before you respond you will get back into the game anyway.

End this sob story and rethink your recent interactions. You probably said something multiple times, Fatshark reviewed their logs and agreed with people who reported you that you wer the offender in those situations.

You have to weigh the positive and the negative. In my opinion, there’s never been a single joke or feel good moment that’s made me think “yea this is worth it” when those come standard with the screechers and the sore losers and backseat dead guys and the bigots. When you open up comms, you’re opening a window to anyone.

You think everyone gets to choose where they live? Did you? And do you control the country you live in? Miss us all with this reductive nonsense.

Because I do not assert, but assume. I was not provided with any reasons or evidence for the ban. I’m going by the latest events in the game. I can report behavior in the same way, who will check if the reason is real? How can I even check this? If they complained specifically about a screenshot or recording of me behaving inappropriately, I would really like to see it, because… I do not admit that I behaved so incorrectly. The support ticket was written a little later than the creation of this topic, you can find it in the corresponding section. And why does this topic bother you so much? As we say, “truth did hurt your eyes”?

Only it isn’t a “truth”, again you are wasting your time on this forum. You are unlikely to be provided with evidence, your are supposed to read the terms of service / rules of condacts etc. I would not be surprised if you ban was a result of automatic word filter AND other players action. I doubt Fatshark has people actively looking at people comms, that is simply too expensive.
