Telling someone to minimize or turn off the chat is not an appropriate answer. That is stating that since others can not be civil that some cannot be apart of the community. Manacube has a great community, it really does. But as someone who identifies as LGBT it does get frustrating when I see people using any LGBT term as a joke. If you are part of a minority of any type you typically have dealt with bullying.... and even thought the right thing to do is grow a thick skin and ignore it...it can still be daunting and turn players off from wanting to be apart of the community or to even play on mana cube all together.
Peoples want to use harsh words should not out weigh the way they make people feel. I know this is just a game, and everyone does have that option to just turn off their computer, but no one should feel compelled or outkasted due to others bad word choices.
Also, you can change your choice of words, but people cant change things like sexual orientation, disabilities, mental illnesses, etc...
