Since I was (probaly) the first guy to made a thread in this forum to bring up this issue, I also wanna conclude it and give some thought.
TW has clearified that:
1. Only Devs could Ban player That fourm lied and misled some players (myself included).
2. That forum abused TW trust. They collected "political incorrect" report from Chinese players and reporting them to TW as cheating.
3. Ten-year bans were reduced to 1-week ban
4. Devs already have a solution for this issue.
What TW has not clearified:
1. Their relationship with that fourm/ community. It seems that Chinese fourm helped TW with Chinese localistion.
My final words on censorship or racism(troll):
It this hard to tell the whole story by a few screenshots (expecially cropped). Some users believe that some asian players started all conflicts by throwing around racist slurs. However, it this hard to tell the whole story by a few screenshots. Some Chinese players are exetreme sensitive about political avartar/ID/ messages. While it is true that some players intentionally throw racist slur against Chinese, so does Chinese players. They cropped out their inapporopiate speech when they file reports. Thats why most screenshots provided in the open letter contains cropped chat message rather than complete chat record. Many non-Chinese asian players did not take screenshot to defend themselves because they never heard off that Chinese Fourm. The whole suituation is one-sided and favour Chinese players.
Possible solution:
1. Seperating Chinese Server from Asian Server. Chinese ideology is different from other asian players.
2. We need legit rules on what is bannable and what is not. Is politics allowed in offical servers chat? What is the punishment for racism? etc.
3. An in-game report system so that TW wont have to rely on that Chinese Forum.
Not matter of your stance on this issue, thank you for following it and sharing your thoughts. I sincerely hope that this will be sorted out soon. Peace.
