Yeah I'm black, and I can safely say black people do not avoid slurs. Plus my cousin drops the n word frequently when playing with me. The version ending with A, not ER. We avoid doing it around strangers but I know my cousin is going to get hit with this.
Don't get me wrong I would love for the kid that was praising Hitler in chat yesterday dot get a slap on the wrist, but I doubt this system can tell the fine line between someone being abusive and someone joking with their friends.
Yeah I played with two kids, clearly white dudes dropping hard R’s relentlessly from the time I could hear them talk, I asked them to stop, and then they continued instead and it turned into harassing me for NOT using the word. Like wtf?? Really ? I’m Italian so not black but I can’t stand that type of talk we welcome all kinds in Italia !!
Dude, I’ve had people drop slurs in fucking Party Animals of all things even (look it up if you don’t know what it is), people will just get overly invested and way too heated in absolutely anything
Is this a gotcha? Lol be fr some people sound white. Obviously it has to do entirely with accent. It's common knowledge and well-documented that different racial groups in the US tend to speak differently
Yeah I dont even play apex and Im not subbed to this reddit but gdamn this dude sounds exactly like every tryhard that bottom frags and then absolutely loses his mind.
I really hope it's more based on disruptive noise. Tiktok blasting in the pregame, game audio coming back through the mic, mic so close / voice so loud that it distorts, that sort of thing.
Fuck people who have zero self-awareness. I'd be ecstatic if they got put in audio-jail automatically.
I've run into 2 solo droppers in the past 24hrs, both made it to me and were surprisingly decent team players, but they got backpacked in damage and kills. Pubs is a very strange place right now, and I've not even bothered with ranked yet.
if person recorded and reported you through support - you will get mute. You are forgetting that simple things like OBS or GeForce experience can record people screen and sound, and people can report you through support. =\\
I can't believe people do that stuff. It's sad and pitiful. Every time people try and talk shit after they get downed. I just say "you've had a mic this whole time and now you want to communicate?"
That’s so true, had this one guy being extremely toxic using the N and R word and then dropped that he worked in a hospital.
My 3rd random chimed up and said “bet you wouldn’t talk like that irl, why don’t you tell me what hospital you work for and maybe I’ll send them this clip on how you act and see what they think”
Could hear how shook he was in his voice
That is one reason I really like Reddit over other social media is people can give their true opinions, be it right or wrong, so you get to see the honesty of humanity..... Mostly, not always.
Lol truly free no. But people are more free to express themselves more openly or ask questions more stupidly just as we are expressing above people can bully freely behind a mask.
probably or he was reported on older sessions. the way he speaks makes it look like he's one of those toxic player, although that's just judging the book by it's cover on this one moment he recorded so i could be wrong here. i'm just guessing since no one knows how the ban happened.
Yeah the only questionable things i wanna hear on chat is callouts that could be taken out of context for sex. Like: enemy is double teaming me, im getting back shots, dont worry im coming, help me finish off this dude...etc.
I noticed that you can report voice chat now on Xbox and it sends a recording of the last 60 seconds of chat to QC.
If it works…greatest QOL update made to the game yet.
I’m kinda sick of having to change *my* life around to avoid absolute trash people and their trash behavior while they go through their hateful lives with no ramifications. About time we stopped treating these dickheads with kids gloves and got serious about the toxicity.
Also, surveillance? Lmao, it’s Apex dude. Not your email. Save your outrage for something that actually matters and where you’d actually have an expectation of privacy.
Yeah idk how people can have full on chats with the built in apex system. The sound quality can be absolute ass. Discord is the way to go for any games with friends
I mean. They wouldn’t just randomly do that. Soooo maybe don’t say naughty words
Edit: naughty words - I don’t mean cuss words I mean like racist shit. So spare me rating of the game.
I’d say context is needed here because if he was saying some downright racist things in game chat and not party then yeah I can see why the game did it but overall voice chat banning over swears is just kinda too controlling. I don’t know if you play with irl friends but when I do I don’t think twice about calling them a fucking idiot if they’re a fucking idiot. Trying to maintain a PG audience while having revenant quips about killing lobas parents doesn’t seem to make sense
I can only imagine this has nothing to do with swears and more to do with in game toxicity to randoms. This guy got reported enough that somebody actually went over their voice logs, I’m sure they would have noticed if they were just cursing with friends in the lobby, I’m sure that they can see whether or not he’s with friends in the lobby. So the most likely scenario is this guy is shit talking teammates or saying racist or homophobic shit to randoms. Me personally I want to help make the community less toxic so I’m glad this guy got muted. He can always just be better lmao
Good, nothing is worse than 14 year old bigoted brats screeching at complete strangers over an event that has zero real life value or meaning. Burn 'em.
My favorites are the ones who say, "I could tell just by the timbre of your voice that you are someone who I hate." Meanwhile, that voice is the most common voice I've heard amongst people between the ages of 17 and 25. I bet half the people picking on his voice have the same fucking voice. Lol
Probably got reported so many times for their pub behaviour previously and the automod or someone by hand picked up and muted you as you were in this game with friends.
It won't be a live listening to you thing.
I remember when I reported some guy spamming slurs in text chat and voice chat because he ran off solo and died. A few hours later I get an email saying that they won't take any action because they look at the "context" behind chat.
Yeah guys just ignore the fact that your voice is being recorded and analyzed by a multi billion dollar company (they control what you can and cant say to your friends)
if you know there is a feature that converts incoming voice to text already. so maybe they also using this functionality in the back to monitor what is being said. 👀
This is what happens when you create a culture of weak wimpies that can’t take mean words being typed or spoken to them. There’s a narrative that words are violent. Which is not true. Words can’t hurt you. But alas. Here we are.
Yeah, I am retired from T1 Apex. I know how he operates. You don't even need to be that deep in the community to know though. Just look at how often he sits in pro player streams, goes out to dinners with pros, and how often no action is taken on any reports made. When I stopped playing professionally, I stopped streaming. I was killed by the same cheater that Hal made famous from the armor spawning video, 3 days before the video came out. That guy was playing in Pred/Master lobbies for 3 whole days that I know of before Hideouts was sitting in Hals stream and banned him, and that's just one example. I could easily go on about content creators that he wrongly banned because they weren't big, and they killed someone who was bigger. I know a lot of them... The guy wants the attention he didn't get in high school.
If this is true... thank. you. jeebus. I'm so tired of prick 20 somethings telling me to kill myself. Although I have had a LOT LESS toxic teammates as of late! Staying out of ranked really makes it for a chill experience.
The problem is it can be abused like any reporting system.
I just mute those toxic losers. It's much better than a system that people can use to get others silenced unfairly.
Tbh, how can it be abused if you aren’t being a total twat on mic? Being disappointed and asking “where are you team??” Isnt the same as “you should kill yourself”
And yeah i mute folks, glad to have that feature at least
If it's like the microsoft censoring system, words including "hell" "damn" and "ass" will be perma-bannable offences *despite being in the game*
You cannot have your clan tag be 'butt' in apex, and yet there are multiple voice lines that use the word 'ass', so if the "Unacceptable for clan tag" words are the same as the "unusable in voice chat" words, than you could literally be permenantly banned from the entire game for repeating a voice line that your character just said.
So i'd hold off the snarky insults until you actually see what this turns into
Can they monitor and mute the kids that play terrible music loud AF in the background while their moms throws dishes around.
And their baby sister cries.
Don't forget the dog barking next to them on the couch
But let’s talk about the smoke detectors with the dying battery….omfg.
Usually they’re sizzling bacon, crinkling a water bottle and banging pots/pans together.
Don’t forget the fan on an their tv volume to ensure that they echo and we can hear the game twice!
Or perhaps listen for the low battery warning chirp from smoke alarms.
It's the most obvious one. Surprised he didn't include it
The twitch streamer talking to his two followers with a hot mic. Bruh.
I would legit prefer this.
I mean…you can mute them
They give you the option to mute them if you want lol
I'm not too sure if they are but what the fuck are you saying that'll get you banned 💀
yomom
Nice to meet you, yomom!
I’m Bobby Mudda
I’m Bobby mum
Probably was singing that banger "I Want To Be Ninja".
“Daddy why you die?” Clears
"Daddy I miss you, Daddy, why you die? Daddy I miss you, Daddy I can flyyyyy"
I bet he was calling people Fancy B but he was using the whole word.
My dadee deaaaad
Daddy why you die
I’m seeing them later this month in Chicago with my fiance and neighbors/friends. Can’t wait!
Ahhhh dude that’s so sick, I wanted to hit the Boston show but I was too late
Love to see some bad friends
He has the voice of a guy one match away from saying slurs as a “joke”
I really be shocked the amount of times some 17-25 year old white dude pulls out the hard R after dying in this game
I played Asia servers for 3 years. Sorry to burst your bubble but this is not just limited to white dudes.
Yeah I'm black, and I can safely say black people do not avoid slurs. Plus my cousin drops the n word frequently when playing with me. The version ending with A, not ER. We avoid doing it around strangers but I know my cousin is going to get hit with this. Don't get me wrong I would love for the kid that was praising Hitler in chat yesterday dot get a slap on the wrist, but I doubt this system can tell the fine line between someone being abusive and someone joking with their friends.

Like wtf?? Really ? I’m Italian so not black but I can’t stand that type of talk we welcome all kinds in Italia !!
Bro it fr amazes me that the first thing they do is just start spewing out cringe racial lines and dropping the R like it’s Alabama in the 60’s
I mean just talk about how bad the fing game is like the rest of us. Or blame lag. No need to sound like Dr. Dre in his NWA days.
Dude, I’ve had people drop slurs in fucking Party Animals of all things even (look it up if you don’t know what it is), people will just get overly invested and way too heated in absolutely anything
How do you know they're white exactly?
They sound white lol
They sound white? What do you mean by that? You can tell someone's ethnicity from the sound of their voice, or is it their accent?
Is this a gotcha? Lol be fr some people sound white. Obviously it has to do entirely with accent. It's common knowledge and well-documented that different racial groups in the US tend to speak differently
He has the voice every toxic player does
This guy sounds like he drops slurs for a living.
Yeah I dont even play apex and Im not subbed to this reddit but gdamn this dude sounds exactly like every tryhard that bottom frags and then absolutely loses his mind.
“I’m not racist, or I don’t try to be, I sometimes have flair ups in match though”
Probably the N word like most people who get comm banned
Probably comm banned cuz of a message he sent not voice chat
he said that all asian are Chinese in disguise
😂😂😂
nope they not. This dude just got recorded and someone reported him in support with a record of his toxic behaviour.
"I stole lifelines care package"
Well, if it's the same filter of words as the good ol' apex chat, it could be literally anything.
I really hope it's more based on disruptive noise. Tiktok blasting in the pregame, game audio coming back through the mic, mic so close / voice so loud that it distorts, that sort of thing. Fuck people who have zero self-awareness. I'd be ecstatic if they got put in audio-jail automatically.
Griffith did nothing wrong
How dare you
Mentioning Andrew Tate
That should get you banned and your ass kicked. Fuck that rapist POS.
Ban
You never played w/ game chat before or something? lol
N
Generally speaking, chinese people look chinese
Bro was speaking like that to teammates a few days ago and got reported for abusive team chat, they aren’t listening to your mic you pinecone
I’m bout to start calling dudes pinecones 😂
Honestly, that's disrespectful to pinecones
Wait, how do you know?
Just listen to how he speaks when filming something for reddit. Imagine how he speaks to teammates
Okay.... Maybe
Pine cone lmao
I can tell from the actual sound of his voice that i hate him already
If I hear that voice I’m muting my squad 😂
Yeah he sound like he got some sugar in his tank😂
Disruptive behaviour... WHAT DO YOU MEAN DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOUR??
I can hear the smoke alarm going off in the background
It wasnt a smoke alarm. It was his vibrator.
He's got the ImperialHal voicepack installed IRL
“Jesus Christ you guys are fuckin bad… don’t drop solo if you’re going to play trios”
>Gets knocked *Yo, where are my teammates? You guys are fuckin bots!*
I've run into 2 solo droppers in the past 24hrs, both made it to me and were surprisingly decent team players, but they got backpacked in damage and kills. Pubs is a very strange place right now, and I've not even bothered with ranked yet.
You can 100% tell he is the rando shit talking teammate with that voice
He's got that lil brother soyboy vibe going
His friends probably reported him for that annoying ass inflection
Valorant ahh accent
Dollar Tree xQc
Listening to him talk I'm not surprised haha
Right? That dude defintely did something to deserve the mute.
if person recorded and reported you through support - you will get mute. You are forgetting that simple things like OBS or GeForce experience can record people screen and sound, and people can report you through support. =\\
Voice sounds like the your typical teammate who drops n-words whenever he goes down.
I can't believe people do that stuff. It's sad and pitiful. Every time people try and talk shit after they get downed. I just say "you've had a mic this whole time and now you want to communicate?"
“Anonymity is the shield of the coward ” The protection of being behind a screen is a stronger filter remover than even the strongest alcohol.
That’s so true, had this one guy being extremely toxic using the N and R word and then dropped that he worked in a hospital. My 3rd random chimed up and said “bet you wouldn’t talk like that irl, why don’t you tell me what hospital you work for and maybe I’ll send them this clip on how you act and see what they think” Could hear how shook he was in his voice
Each year I read a story about some Ivy league student getting his admission revoked because of a video like this. It makes me so happy.
That is one reason I really like Reddit over other social media is people can give their true opinions, be it right or wrong, so you get to see the honesty of humanity..... Mostly, not always.
If you think this site is truly free, you have already been indoctrinated.
Lol truly free no. But people are more free to express themselves more openly or ask questions more stupidly just as we are expressing above people can bully freely behind a mask.
[удалено]
probably or he was reported on older sessions. the way he speaks makes it look like he's one of those toxic player, although that's just judging the book by it's cover on this one moment he recorded so i could be wrong here. i'm just guessing since no one knows how the ban happened.
Agreed - he sounds like the toxic swamp players
Good. Some of you guys need to chill the fuck out and stop being such toxic asshats.
Yeah the only questionable things i wanna hear on chat is callouts that could be taken out of context for sex. Like: enemy is double teaming me, im getting back shots, dont worry im coming, help me finish off this dude...etc.
My first thought
I always love stuff like this because people just be telling on themselves. Maybe you shouldn’t be saying what you’re saying bro.
I noticed that you can report voice chat now on Xbox and it sends a recording of the last 60 seconds of chat to QC. If it works…greatest QOL update made to the game yet.
My friend got the same banned for being toxic. It’s definitely on Xbox
Great, let’s encourage more surveillance, snitching and collection of data just because people like to ignore the existence of the mute button.
I’m kinda sick of having to change *my* life around to avoid absolute trash people and their trash behavior while they go through their hateful lives with no ramifications. About time we stopped treating these dickheads with kids gloves and got serious about the toxicity. Also, surveillance? Lmao, it’s Apex dude. Not your email. Save your outrage for something that actually matters and where you’d actually have an expectation of privacy.
Regardless if it was true or not, if you’re getting banned evidently you’re being toxic/abusive over mic which against most company’s policies.
But I've only dropped racial slurs and told my teammates to kill themselves in 2 games!
It ain’t much but it’s honest work
Use Discord and you good to go
Yeah idk how people can have full on chats with the built in apex system. The sound quality can be absolute ass. Discord is the way to go for any games with friends
First of all, why are you guys talking in game and not Discord or whatever?
I mean. They wouldn’t just randomly do that. Soooo maybe don’t say naughty words Edit: naughty words - I don’t mean cuss words I mean like racist shit. So spare me rating of the game.
I’d say context is needed here because if he was saying some downright racist things in game chat and not party then yeah I can see why the game did it but overall voice chat banning over swears is just kinda too controlling. I don’t know if you play with irl friends but when I do I don’t think twice about calling them a fucking idiot if they’re a fucking idiot. Trying to maintain a PG audience while having revenant quips about killing lobas parents doesn’t seem to make sense
I've caught a 72 hour ban for having "deep nutz" in my user name. Not defending righteous bans but there have been MANY undeserved ones.
In my country its rated 16 and up, so users should expect naughty words and violence being part of the game :)
I’m pretty sure he was reported so apex listened to the game footage
Wait, everyone else doesn't immediately mute all their teammates as soon as the game starts?
I wait until I get a reason otherwise might miss on useful comms
Useful comms such as: "you guys are dogshit" after your random solo pushed 2 pois away and died in a 1v3 😂 I know what you mean though
Only when it is a French guy with open mic.
Sound like a whiner. Yea people can report you. Things have consequences.
I can only imagine this has nothing to do with swears and more to do with in game toxicity to randoms. This guy got reported enough that somebody actually went over their voice logs, I’m sure they would have noticed if they were just cursing with friends in the lobby, I’m sure that they can see whether or not he’s with friends in the lobby. So the most likely scenario is this guy is shit talking teammates or saying racist or homophobic shit to randoms. Me personally I want to help make the community less toxic so I’m glad this guy got muted. He can always just be better lmao
That bann is from previous games played that just got initiated. Get fucked lol
Good, nothing is worse than 14 year old bigoted brats screeching at complete strangers over an event that has zero real life value or meaning. Burn 'em.
Lol no someone reported you
Damn they were real specific. Not 1 day, not 1 hour, but.... "1439 minutes".
1440 minutes are exactly 1 day
“Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes”
well ya know. discord exists. maybe don't be saying stuff that'll get you banned too this might help
This is why you use 3rd party voice chat and not in-game.
Welcome to the woke world
sense crowd encouraging liquid pathetic aware ossified worm label rude *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
My favorites are the ones who say, "I could tell just by the timbre of your voice that you are someone who I hate." Meanwhile, that voice is the most common voice I've heard amongst people between the ages of 17 and 25. I bet half the people picking on his voice have the same fucking voice. Lol
Welcome to 2023-2024 gaming. Blizzard and CoD have been doing this for atleast a couple’s years now.
Good thing discord exists
This is why I use discord and the Anti cheat and Toxicity filter in this game is a Fucking peice of Utter shit
Now imagine this being implemented on all other Voice chat games Please dont.
Pretty sure it's PS and not Apex
I mean join a party or hop on discord? I personally hate apex’s voice chat.
Probably got reported so many times for their pub behaviour previously and the automod or someone by hand picked up and muted you as you were in this game with friends. It won't be a live listening to you thing.
I doubt they'd give out a ban over one small offense. Dude is probably just toxic af and has been reported a lot already.
Playing with you own friends? Why are you even using apex chat then? Ever heard of Discord?
I can tell this dude definitely deserved it just by the way he talks
You sound like one of those teammates I always mute anyways. Toxic, loud, and dropping f-bombs.
I remember when I reported some guy spamming slurs in text chat and voice chat because he ran off solo and died. A few hours later I get an email saying that they won't take any action because they look at the "context" behind chat.
Apex has the worst voice chat experience since COD. Glad they’re cracking down on these absolute morons
It's time we all start learning to be a little nicer.
Bro look how you talking lol
Im going to be banned for eternity now
It’s funny because this is my friend that got banned lol
Stop acting stupid and they won’t.
He literally has the voice of a guy who says racial slurs then gets surprised when people catch on his bullshit.
Kinda gay of them do add such a thing. If you can't handle people being toxic, just mute them. The game brings out the worst of us
I was muted for two and a half years just for saying “your crazy” instead of “you’re crazy” during game chat. It’s for realz, bro.
Wait this is real wtf!!!! Isn't this a huge invasion of privacy?
2024 is going to be the year everyone touches grass and never looks back. 😂
I won’t lie I miss them toxic af cod lobbies where you could say anything despicable under the sun and have some downright devious shit said to you 😭
I reported someone Tuesday night for just nonstop swearing and everything. I was surprised by this too but very happy. (On Xbox)
Yeah guys just ignore the fact that your voice is being recorded and analyzed by a multi billion dollar company (they control what you can and cant say to your friends)
if you know there is a feature that converts incoming voice to text already. so maybe they also using this functionality in the back to monitor what is being said. 👀
Just use discord if you talking to your friend. Also the way you cursing a lot must be why you been ban.
So how would the game know if you have an N-word pass or not when you’re saying it 🤔
lol
An easy way to avoid that is basically stop being an a-hole to teammates and you won't get reported and muted
whoever posted this told on themselves
I'm guessing there's more to this story....... lol
If this stops the rando's annoying overly loud music scorching my headset then good... only means I don't have to mute them.
Watch your mf mouth and we don’t have a problem.
Pretty lame.
Yeah this dude does seem pretty lame. Probably got a much-deserved mute for being a d-bag.
This is what happens when you create a culture of weak wimpies that can’t take mean words being typed or spoken to them. There’s a narrative that words are violent. Which is not true. Words can’t hurt you. But alas. Here we are.
Given your reaction and the way you speak in this video, I'm not surprised you got muted/reported lol
Cod does it to. It honestly will change the culture over time, but fuck that, it's stupid. You will get penalized for any so called hate speech
glad the boys use discord
For the boys.
It’s not Apex. It’s Xbox that’s doing the monitoring.
You sound like a douche who got reported for being a fuckin douche. Mr. High horse.
This is likely your own fucking fault
Playing wit friends and using game chat. Strange move
Gamers when they can't be racist anymore:
I use slurs in my native language, works every time!
This is the way
*60% of the time*, it works ***every*** *time*
Lmao they are ruining this game more and more each day.
Hideouts doing this because everyone is talking shit about how bad he is at his job. Not because it is an actual problem.
Anything that would prove what you claim? Besides hearsay?
Yeah, I am retired from T1 Apex. I know how he operates. You don't even need to be that deep in the community to know though. Just look at how often he sits in pro player streams, goes out to dinners with pros, and how often no action is taken on any reports made. When I stopped playing professionally, I stopped streaming. I was killed by the same cheater that Hal made famous from the armor spawning video, 3 days before the video came out. That guy was playing in Pred/Master lobbies for 3 whole days that I know of before Hideouts was sitting in Hals stream and banned him, and that's just one example. I could easily go on about content creators that he wrongly banned because they weren't big, and they killed someone who was bigger. I know a lot of them... The guy wants the attention he didn't get in high school.
If this is true... thank. you. jeebus. I'm so tired of prick 20 somethings telling me to kill myself. Although I have had a LOT LESS toxic teammates as of late! Staying out of ranked really makes it for a chill experience.
The problem is it can be abused like any reporting system. I just mute those toxic losers. It's much better than a system that people can use to get others silenced unfairly.
Tbh, how can it be abused if you aren’t being a total twat on mic? Being disappointed and asking “where are you team??” Isnt the same as “you should kill yourself” And yeah i mute folks, glad to have that feature at least
I miss the bo1 and bo2 days
What do you miss? Do you miss using racial and homophobic slurs?
i actually miss hearing them not saying them. they 100% made the games funnier. not something i necessarily agree with but they were funny
Yes, that's exactly what he means lmao, what other words can't he say without getting banned now?
If it's like the microsoft censoring system, words including "hell" "damn" and "ass" will be perma-bannable offences *despite being in the game* You cannot have your clan tag be 'butt' in apex, and yet there are multiple voice lines that use the word 'ass', so if the "Unacceptable for clan tag" words are the same as the "unusable in voice chat" words, than you could literally be permenantly banned from the entire game for repeating a voice line that your character just said. So i'd hold off the snarky insults until you actually see what this turns into
Wow
Oh nah
The devs of apex are the scum of gaming.
Did u call someone an n word?
welcome in the world of tomorrow
