i shouldnt have to be subjected to your bigotry and ignorance when i am just trying to play a game for fun. and neither should the kids who play this game, or the homosexuals.
faggot is not used in everyday society. the fact that you think that just shows how you were raised.

I like how blizzard bans for BMness but does shit all for hackers at the top of the ladder
/roll eyes
They're making punkbuster look like a great antihack tool
at OP:
although i don't mind BM personally (I don't think you used the word homophobically, im sure everyone attacking you for it has called someone a faggot at one point in their lives) since its the internet and all, you got stompED and you probably were reported for the same behavior earlier. Id imagine thats why they took action. so w/e

24 hour ban in a video game =/= being thrown in jail.
Punishment fit the crime.
Take your lumps and move on.

I think it's funny how blizzard bans me for using one word...but hackers..people saying they'll murder your family, etc. don't get banned. I guess some blizzard employees might be homosexual and they take offense to this. Is that funny enough for you?
Yes I do, I feel like a total boss for spelling correctly. What's wrong with your argument is that freedom of speech is limited. Sure, you can say what you want. Nobody is going to stop you! But when you're ignorant of the terms Blizzard presented to you when installing the game (you DID read it, did you???) prepare to be suspended when you insult people about their sexual orientation. Pro-gamers have nothing to do with this - unless you consider yourself a pro-gamer, which I have no comment on.
If you're so good when you're raging then maybe should keep being mad and make it all the way to #1 GM.
Oh wait, you can't, cause you're suspended.

I was actually raised in a religious family and believe in God. While I don't agree with homosexual people and think it's wrong...I don't hate them and wouldn't call them that. Now stop trying to turn this thread into a sexual orientation thread.
You can't judge a book by its cover...you can't judge somebody online by what they type. Way to make a fool of yourself.

Also way to use the suspended as a cheap shot insult that doesn't insult me in anyway. I don't play this game a lot on the weekends and I'm suspended until Sunday night so it doesn't bother me.

you call someone a faggot; get suspended from bnet; and then decide to make a thread to tell everyone how funny it is that you get banned for it. yes, i am making a fool of myself. you are a douche and the fact that you cant see that is the only amusing thing in this thread.
User was temp banned for this post.

Never been banned from any blizzard game even if I've deserved it many times.

You actually got banned from saying faggot? Really. Hahahaha. I drop all kinds of bad manner shit in customs. I'm really a nice guy though, 100% manner in 1v1's.

Somehow this statement seems ironic...
But this thread seems to have gotten way off-topic and into pretty hateful territory. I guess that there aren't many people who have been banned who read Teamliquid. Also, the one in the OP isn't that funny, the only funny one was with the guy telling the people arguing that marines are underpowered to go kill themselves.

Why is it funny to get banned for saying faggot?

this thread is full of fail

wow did anyone even read the ToS in the first place? btw i'm pretty sure that not how you write the word "because" in your last sentence... 
Edit: wow, this thread evolved a lot while I wasn't watching...so now its a debate on sexual orientation we have?

Lol... if you think that faggot isn't an everyday word, then you must have been raised in very rich family, or didn't get out much. Among normal people, faggot is just a way you refer to a friend (like dude), and its a good playful insult.

I'm 100% mannered in 1v1 as well...this was in a 2v2. Daph you are still making a fool of yourself. Almost everybody in this thread thinks it's hilarious and even admit they bm a bit as well...Nice calling me a douche. Do you mind if I report you?

You sir, are dumb. People have already said this is funny and if you think it isn't that is 100% your personal opinion. The only hateful territory here is by others...not by me.

Reading the terms was sarcasm, I forgot this wasn't a topic intended for humor. My mistake. 
Nevertheless I wish you good luck at MLG Orlando. It will be difficult if you can't practice because of a potty mouth.

Exactly. My best friend I call faggot on the phone, etc. While I wasn't using that word in this way in the game...it's still an everyday word and either he is a rich snob or is living in his house and never going to school.

If you think its funny you got banned for calling someone a faggot, you really need to rethink how your interact socially with people, online or offline...

Yeah come tomorrow night it'll be back to practice. Also I am going to call Blizzard about this because my friend watched all the replays and I never called anybody faggot...only my friend did. I thought maybe I had but turns out Blizzard made a mistake.
