I don't really get it? He wanted the bones the chickens dropped? Why not just leave them on the ground for him.

Well you censor evaded, like you said it was somebodys name, but you can't expect jagex to look at every person that was in the cc to see if that where the case, on top of thousands of other possible explanations, they just see you using a very common censor evasion and take action.

However, i don't think you should just take it. Appeal etc, then root out the real problem. Find the guy who reported you and kick his *** for being such a gimp. Don't blame jagex (i admit their system sucks, a good chunk of my 5 marks are undeserved), blame the uptight little ***** who reported you.

To directly answer your question: I have no idea.

Best thing to do now is appeal, and don't go too overboard with calling newbies names from now on, because I find the majority of those name-callers are, like him, possible mod-wannabies that like to get people to call them names back, and then report them.

I'm not saying it's your fault, I'm just saying be careful.

When I first saw that you called someone "fak" I thought you were going round the filter and replacing the "g" with a "k".

Maybe that's it. You may have been calling someone's name (or part of it) but other people might not have known that. In the future don't be so lazy, call them by their whole name.

Unless the guy who reported you had that name, Jagex would of had no way of knowing the people around you. And a lot of people are super mod wannabes who report for anything they can make look bad and the number is even greater in F2P.

You were being quite rude though.

Well when you accused someone of macroeing that may have affected it too. Your not allowed to accuse people of breaking rules if they're not.

lol u got the punishment for the "stfu" i have asked a p mod and yes it is offensive laguage just not many ppl report u for it
but by the looks of it the player who reported u was a noob and noobs report u for every think

Though I know these were not the offending words, I really recommend not using stupid and noob, all it does is give yourself a bad reputation if you become well known. I have never used noob, only nub to my friends when joking around

Obviously Jagex took the word "fak" to be offensive as it is the replacement for a very "bad" word ending with k, and starting with f.

Unless the "fak" thing got you in trouble, it is NOT offensive to say "STFU".

I see, I see thanks for the heads up and Advices of what to do next time before doing or so.

Braaron · **Posted:** March 13th, 2008, 6:38 am

You should really watch out how you call people by name, it sounds offensive, so you know what THAT means...Some noob who thinks he is all knowing is going to report you to get some booty points with Jagex...

They get you on being rude. It's not in the rules but I've had a few offences come through that i can only imagine was because i was rude, they cleared me on them instantly but still, they do send it out.

I personally think that you deserve the .2 black marks or whatever it is for offensive language, as it is not very many black marks and you were being quite rude
