Clearly RecRoom staff dont know what they’re doing by adding voice moderation in the game because it affects everyone whether they say nice things or bad! Nobody should be even experiencing long voice bans either as if they just couldnt ban the account altogether! Ive seen people get mic banned for literally being muted…how i dont know but it’s terrible and clearly somebody in charge doesnt know what the hell theyre doing and its making people all over quit, switch to VrChat, or just upset in general.

I’d rather get voice banned for like an hour over getting banned because I said “carrots are good for you”

A kid asked me to play with them then I said "No"

I can see you taking out moderation as in "it needs a complete do-over," because it definitely does (the moderation is shit), but taking out moderation as in removing it entirely is like putting your only bodyguard on an infinite day-off.

They're getting banned? I mean, they seem like the toxic type 💯, but this is something to scoff at. They got their undies in a bunch because of moderation being bad and that's highly understandable, but nothing to take it out on other people for. 🤷🏽‍♂️

icy light
#

Not sure if it said they were banned but ultimately the attitude they have is the reason they are acting this way which is why they won’t like voice moderation although it is flawed and I’ve been voice banned in my own dorm alone before when I didn’t even have my head set on and was on the phone but like overall especially in the rec centres people are getting vb for the right reasons but they don’t see it as justified because they managed to get away with it other times which is just lucky not always broken but overall I’d say it’s mid but needed

I never took my anger out on anyone so stop the delusion. If you couldnt read clearly then that seems like a skill issue. I only responded in the same way that others replied to my thread😂. if you want to cry about it like the other guy and claim someone as “toxic” for responding then take it somewhere else honestly. The moderation sucks and if they cant fix it then it needs to be taken out completely. The game has gotten worse since they added voice moderation bans with no appeal. Getting banned for 2 days for having a normal conversation with a friend with no slurs nor cursing should have an appeal just like account bans do because its unfair. Cant play publicly with people or talk to others without being in privates.

Passive aggression can be built from being upset/angry, you were constantly mocked by a pre-teen of all ages, and I've read enough to know potentially why you're getting voice banned in a matter of seconds. I replied with an advised message first, somewhat agreeing with you, but you chose reply to the bad ones. Sounds more delusional than what I ever did. I can leave still coping, but it won't change the fact that the way you talk, and the way that you act is just a 13th reason why you're the one with the skill issues and voice bans, Xanax.

May your next reply be a humble one, bless your soul.

the only replies directed to me were bad ones so idek why you decided to just be loud and matter of factly wrong aswell with this statement. Typing is not the same as talking for me so dont act like you know someone based off them defending their point on something on a discord thread 💀. That kid was the only one i got irritated by and i said that if you knew how to read correctly. Ive stated everything ive gotten voice banned by and not a single time it was from me saying anything bad. not 1 single time. So you might need to do some humbling yourself.
Not sure why you people think its okay for others to try to “mock” you no matter the age and it make it seem like im not allowed to say anything back

their system is mostly correct; appeal the unjust ones, wait out valid ones and carry on with business. it’s only getting better, so to take out a pretty great moderation saving grace over a few appeal-able mistakes seems extreme

You're proving my point more than yours. If I had a dollar for every "single time" someone said they were not saying anything bad, I'd have thousands of dollars, knowing the player count. All I'm saying is to have some class. Some, and this thread would barely exist. I'm also saying that getting rid of moderation entirely, the fundamental of our security in an online game, as well as every other online game, is a terrible idea unless you're starting it over.

Aside from you saying things actually related to my actual thread youre just assuming things with no actual valid reason to. Youre comparing me replying to comments as something negative when my replies wouldn’t exist unless provoked in some way. Unless you know me on rec room personally then id advise you not to always group others with your past experiences with others. Thats just loud and wrongful accusation so no im still not proving what terrible kind of point you have. Actually since you keep mentioning it i still havent said anything bad here that would trigger to moderatation system on Rec Room. No cursing, slurs, anything and that just honestly adds to how that was irrelevant for you to even say

cobalt pumice

As far as my comment on the moderation system itself I still stand by it. There was no such thing as “voice bans” around a year ago and before that only account bans. and honestly just that was enough. It wasnt too sensitive like the voice moderation and it wasnt too weak so that what i was comparing it to when i made the thread. I just simply dont like how they added it and it made the game worse just like every update theyve had since last year. If a person cant freely be able to speak in a public meeting new people then whats the point of the game being an online game with places to connect like rec center where talking is all you mainly do. Its not even just me. Once i had a family member play and she doesnt curse and she also got Mic banned when she accidentally screamed in dodgeball when hit. People can get these bans off the dumbest things that sound like or rhyme with different kinds of curse words. The only people i havent seen get mic banned often are people who speak different languages(kind of irrelevant but i wanted to add that).

rose crag
# cobalt pumice Aside from you saying things actually related to my actual thread youre just ass...

Gonna reply to the first, then reply to the second to "stay relevant." I can compare you to what you bring back on others, but that's just a matter of self-control. I'm bold enough to make my own claims when it comes to an international issue everyone has. Take it from me. Discord moderation and in-game moderation are two different things. We can go on about this, and there wouldn't be a problem so let's focus on the in-game problem your thread was saying in the first place. We've both been relevant here, I just prefered to mention you since you're the one with the problem right now.

rose crag
# cobalt pumice As far as my comment on the moderation system itself I still stand by it. There ...

The first thing you mentioned made no sense. Account bans would be more sensitive considering voice bans are literally a time-out compared repetitively banning your account completely. If that's the case, Rec Room might as well have shut down with that idea because if "talking" is all we do, Rec Room wouldn't have players anymore. That's only a relief to you because the people who negatively impacted you are disappearing. Again, I only focused on you because you were the one having a problem about it. I've had my fair share of voice bans, and I thought they were bullshit all the time. The more I've bypassed and learned what was right to say, what was wrong to say, having self-control over what I say and do, that has prevented me from over a year's worth of voice bans I could've gotten by now. With all due respect, it's better to mute yourself than get muted. Block than to be banned, etc. Also, people from other countries can still get voice banned. Just because it's an American game doesn't mean it's an international issue. They aren't safe either.

I said the thing about the account bans because youre saying it would be more sensitive when it wasnt. As of this year ive hardly seen others get account bans even less than before since theyve added voice bans to annoy us. Back then the account bans werent bad a majority of the time after they fixed the report issue where it was easy to spam report someone just by having their @ name. I never really got banned and i wasnt ever in a situation where i needed to since i wasnt ever really negative about anything. Those times were the best and they added voice moderation bans for added measures

that's the only reason people want voice mod out\

gritty ether
#

I find the whole concept of voice moderation weird. why monitor everyone at all times (in public lobbies) and decide for everyone what's to be considered offensive and what isn't, when that is very objective, and what is a funny inside joke between two friends might be offensive to an outsider. but do those two friends need to be voice banned, even though nobody who would've gotten offended heard it?
not only that but voice bans are known to be late, apparently a lot of times it's 2 days late! by that time does it even matter anymore? did anyone get saved from being offended?
what is wrong with the system of deciding for yourself who you don't want to hear and just muting/blocking them, or if something bad happens, report them?

to be honest comparing the community of recroom to vrchat is such a massive reach, vrchat has been known to just be full of creeps

#

i definitely think voice moderation would be better if it actually stopped the squeakers that junior evaded from saying the ultimate gamer list of words but it just happens to be that way, i do think the bans are incredibly dumb and i seen people who barely talk get voicebanned

#

but vr games in general have an issue with kids abusing report features, so it could be more then just automatic voice moderation

#

the least i can say is that rec room is atleast doing more then alot of platforms like vrchat and roblox but they definitely need to keep trying because its still pretty abysmal

# cobalt pumice Clearly RecRoom staff dont know what they’re doing by adding voice moderation in...

I feel like the reason they should keep it is because many little kids playing this game but this can be avoided if rec room take the time to hop inside the game and use there powers to ban underage children and most of them say it in front of the mod and they still don’t care, and that want to keep the game “family friendly” even tho there is games out there with a NSFW picture and rec room allows it

So overall I think they should keep it because they are to lazy to do there job

Yeah i always hear people being discriminatory and saying racist/transphobic/homophobic slurs and nothing happens to them whereas i can cuss once and get voice banned for hours.

I think that voice moderation should only take place when someone gets reported for mic spam or discriminatory language/actions.

If voice moderation is always on, it takes anything you say out of context.

I think they need to polish their moderation system, clearly it has trouble with recognizing certain personal or cultural accents/inflections and it’s not exactly the most accurate voice moderation system in gaming. They need to better teach whatever A.I. they are using by adding more voice data with swearing and slurs and general aggression/harassment.

i can see why, but ive never seen someone actually get falsely banned with context
like i can see someone getting vcbanned saying nothing wrong, only later see them yelling racial slurs

ive played almost every day since the moderation came out and ive yet to be vc banned, not sure how it exactly detects someone for poor language but theres likely a reason why. Also moderators are pretty much extinct ( at least in screen servers) ive seen one since march. If there are that little amount of active mods around in rec centers then i can see why they have an alternative.
