I got a killer sensation!

I wanted to thank everyone for their civil discussion here. We've had significant internal discussion on this and have taken the feedback in this thread to move forward in expanding and improving our current policies and procedures to better welcome and empower everyone to our community. Hellsgamers has always had a policy of inclusion and openness, and I'm sorry to @Keltonthat we may have fallen short on that. We all strive to be inclusive and not divisive, and with that I hope to encourage more constructive civil discussion like this in the future. Please look out for these policy changes in the next month or so and if you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to message me.

Recently I've become quite uncomfortable with the number of my friends and fellow members of HG who have begun using homophobic slurs towards my character and in general. This has begun making not only me uncomfortable, but other members of the community uncomfortable. These members when bringing it up to leadership are simply dismayed and made fun of behind closed doors, for being a "snowflake" or deemed soft when they are simply expressing how they feel. This needs to stop. People in the LGBTQ+ community have fought too hard, to endure harassment in the place that I consider my second home, as I am sure many of you also do. I open up TeamSpeak almost every day to laugh with the people that I love and appreciate what they have done for this community, not to be called a fa**** and be put down. Although I know many people in the LGBTQ+ community have different takes on what they deem to be offensive to them, my rule is simply this. If we don't allow racist comments, any server that has Hells Gamers in the name for being offensive. Then don't allow 14 yr old's to scream homophobic slurs in their mic. It's sad hearing a grown man calling me a fa****, when I know he is truly depressed with himself, he has to put others down to watch a smile stretch across his face. Rule #1 states "Please be respectful to all members. Any issues should be brought up to a Division Staff or above." So why are we not doing that?! When I've personally brought it up to others, I am told to "stop talking to him then" and they continue to do it. This is unjust. I believe that we should begin to discourage others from using homophobic slurs or being transphobic in HellsGamers servers, for the better of being respectful to others, and not creating issues with one another. I want to remain a part of this community, I have many friends that I love talking to, and wish to maintain in my life. In doing so they respect me and have begun not saying these things around me. If I am being real here, I know no one cannot control what happens outside of Hg servers, but for once please create a safe place for everyone from all walks of life, to enjoy Hg for what it is, a community of people that laugh, watch blacklist together, and play games together. If that's not family then I don't know what is. This past year, I've had a lot of hardships with my family, I didn't live with them for over a month, and being with you guys really stopped me from doing some really fucked up things. If you read this far, please know I love you, appreciate you, and hear me out when I say, thank you. With love, Kelton TLDR; Stop saying fa****.

If this is already the case and we have a member coming to us and saying that they don't like it and feel disrespected than we should already stop people saying "you're a fa***" and using it in a demeaning way. You're literally agreeing with us. We just need upper management to come forward and say that it applies to using fa***. Also "just block LOL" is the worst take I've seen in a long time. Address the problem rather than tell victims to "just ignore it", If it's getting to the point we have members coming forward there is a problem and it probably needs to be seriously addressed.

Lol yikes.
