I don't even know where to open this topic, but according to the rules:
<Racism/Discriminatory Behavior: Avoid at all costs, insulting someone's country, culture, lifestyle or skincolor. Even if you are just "joking" it isn't allowed. Slangs such as the n-word aren't allowed either, even in Guild chat. Don't blame guildies for reporting you. It's wrong and you should know that.>
Somebody goes around telling people to off themselves via /General and somebody else goes around telling people the same but with the f word attached via /Whisper, all I got in a ticket is I should /ignore them?

Not sure what's your point. Do you want confirmation that you read the reply to your ticket right? If so, yes, just use /ignore.

I want confirmation that the rules are openly broken and people go unpunished?
Why even make a rule that's openly broken and nothing is done about it? Just don't make it at all (?)

Nothing is being openly broken. You list a rule about racism and then try to twist it into "hate speech" in your head.
You might want to look up what racism means if you believe "kill yourself" is racist.

< lifestyle > is racism? Been told to "kill yourself ******" but that's allowed. Alright bro.

Oh, can't even say the word in the forum, I wonder why.

The Forum and in-game have different rules. You can freely tell people someone stole drops in a raid in-game, while you would get an Infraction for doing it in the Forum. Likewise, you're able to say that in-game, while avoiding the censor in the Forum gets you punished.
You're trying yet again to twist what the rule says because you want to get someone punished. For someone's lifestyle to be being discriminated against, they have to be in the lifestyle. Otherwise it's just an insult.Edited: September 29, 2025

And you're assuming I'm not for some reason? Perhaps I am and that's why I find it disturbingly hurtful to be told to kill myself for that reason? Are we thinking right now? I'm not twisting the rule, you just want to go around it for some odd reason.

Nice comment?

Yes, I'm assuming you aren't, because if you were, I'd expect you to have led with that, not try to complain about the "kill yourself" part.
But hey, feel free to open a new report, showing the GMs that you are in fact openly homosexual and widely known to be so, and that the person who used that word is aware of the fact and made a point to discriminate you because of your homosexuality.

Yet it's the first thing I pointed out when you said it was about "racism" when "lifestyle" is included in the rule.

Sure, I'll hop on a discord videocall with a GM and openly show him I'm homosexual, since that's the confirmation you need. It appears that if I'm not running around telling people I'm gay, I'm not. Still, you're trying to find a way for somebody to go around the rules.

Naturally. You call the thread "hate speech" and complain about people telling others to "kill yourself" while quoting a rule about racism and discrimination. Then it took you three posts to add to it an insult. And then another one to imply you might be homosexual - imply, not even saying you are.
Go try to bull**** someone else.

Still going around a rule, by the way.
