Do the moderators engage when someone says "Dude, that was fucking sick!"?

I'm just saying, I'm not surprised that a moderated server is more, uh, moderated, compared to an unmoderated server. I'm not sure the individual word choices are the determining factor compared to having someone paying attention and removing people with undesired behavior.

Hard to tell because of the different language. They wouldn't engage someone saying something close to that but people wouldn't express their admiration or congratulations with swear words anyway (because it's not the style of the house ?). Of course they'd be using the community's lingo though to express sick moves but these aren't insulting/taunting/agressive to begin with.

I think too. For the comparison I should try a CS:GO or valorant or pubg or fortnite next week-end to see the difference.
