    Does it take anything away from the gaming experience if one has to tone down the chat?

    I'm all for people showing respect to each other in-game, but I must also remind people that there is a mute button.

    Continued hate speech towards someone is not on and should be reported, but if someone is raging because he's getting owned, then why can't he swear?

    I've been in many lobbies where people swear like sailors but I push the mute button and viola, problem solved. In other lobbies where people are raging I decide to tease them as they make it so easy and get them raging even more, so much so that they quite or just shut up. It's all part of online gaming.

    I remember this one time I was just pissed off, had a really crap day and was playing the Uncharted 2 beta all those years ago. There was this Brit in the lobby and I decided to take the piss out of him, he didn't rage, cry or quite but responded to my words in a very witty manner. I couldn't help but just laugh, he was just taking it all and giving it back, I was very impressed. We've been friends ever since, hell I'm going to the UK very soon and we're gonna knock a few pints.

    If someone won't leave you alone, report him. Otherwise just mute or get over it.

    Personally, I wouldn't mind if someone starts swearing and raging because they're losing. I would however mind if they try to take it out on me, that's not right in my opinion.

    Not being able to use steam functionality. Ie. Chat with friends, play with friends, play certain games, greenlight voting, etc.
