Someone who has a bind saying "rekt" or "git gud" or "lol bad". Is there a ban for this? Is this allowed? Can you be banned for saying "rekt" in chat? Basically I have a bind that says "Kill yourself". I'm wondering, do I need to remove it? I tend to accidentally bind shout when I'm spy so is this an issue?

Why would you ever use a bind like that? I honestly don't get why people think saying "Kill yourself" over the internet is "funny" or "just a joke"...

Why would you ever use a bind that is not related to game-play?  I don't understand people's insatiable need to spam stupid shit in chat.

The rules say:

 

While this is an adult and competitive environment, and a certain amount of swearing and "trash talk" is expected, persistent or excessive abuse or discrimination is strictly not tolerated.


Having stupid trash-talking gameplay-related binds is okay, but ones like "Kill yourself" or "get cancer" or what have you are in plain bad taste and should be avoided at all cost. Remember that it doesn't matter if it's a bind or not, if it's something blatantly offensive, it's bannable.

I've seen people with so many binds I couldn't count.

from what I know about binds most of the time they are inside jokes. my suggestion would be, if you want to keep your binds, is to set them to team chat instead of all chat. you and your friends on your team can still enjoy them while not spamming people.

Because finds are funny and games are meant to be fun. Everyone seems to be really intolerant, and it's pathetic.
