Ha, my 4 episode rule backfires every time I forget what day it is.

The real problem with swapping phrases is that you are still typing something at the guy, and that is what actually gets you reported, not the words themselves. Nobody reports "skill issue" because it stings less, so it never hits a mod queue in the first place. The filter is only half the story, the other half is whether the person on the other end feels like complaining about you. Marcus found a phrase that does not make people mad enough to hit that button. But here is the thing nobody brings up, the system watches your account history too, so once you have a mute on your record the next report gets looked at way harder. You have been clean for 10 months which is cool, but that old flag does not just go away. If a mod ever pulls your file they see the kys thing from a year ago and the new stuff starts looking like a pattern instead of a one off.
