"We want to be on the right side of history," says Damien Glorieux a senior director of the Newcastle-based Ubisoft Customer Relationship Centre.

Holliday tells us about a recent case in Norway, saying: "Things were said and behaviours displayed that hit our threshold for intervention. There was a threat to life or serious harm.
"The agreement with Northumbria Police meant that after we flagged it, even though it wasn't a UK citizen - they were able to get Norwegian authorities involved.
"It was a lot quicker, more efficient and safer than trying to do it as a private citizen."

Toxic gaming tackled by Ubisoft's unique police alert system

BBC News has exclusive access to how Ubisoft's customer relations centre is working with police.

And people wonder why no one uses in game chat anymore. Normies think everything on the internet is said seriously.

"We want to be on the right side of history"

Kill yourself.

Racisr bigot TERF. Its right side of HERstory. Im so triggered right now.

So Ubisoft is now calling the cops on people who talk shit online. Yup thats what we need giant multinational corporate police forces.

 

[Hinedorf]

Now if they can just figure out the Toxic management part

And I was just calling the UK a commie country and this thread pops up, how convenient.

 

[DonDonDonPata]

conspiracy theorists stay winning.

"OMG officer, it was terrible. First SuxMeBalz69 said...God, it's hard for me to repeat...that he was going to fuck my mother. Then, he told me to get good, which I can only imagine is a White Supremacist slogan. Then he told me to kill myself." Sobs.

"Hmmm, that's horrible. That sounds like attempted rape and murder to me, we'll send a unit over right now. Do you happen to know where this hooligan lives?"

"Yes officer, he told me he lived on the corner of Lickmycok Drive and Urgay Ave."

 

[Optimus]

We want to be on the right side of history... so not buying another Ubisoft published title is the thing to do in order to be on the right side of history.

 

[Rock And Roll]

Cool I guess the game Devs are the ones doing the SWATing now

Man, I miss the early days of the internet, when I could go to spinchat.de, enter some anime-chatroom called #minakochanssailorworld, call myself "SonGohan" and spend an hour talking about having my way with the chat-owner and all the other guys in the chatroom would join in and she'd be like "lol, stop it, guys, i like all of you".

Today we'd be locked up for life. sigh

 

[The Bloody Nine]

This is an awesome use of the police's time. Wouldn't want them involved with trivial shit like catching real criminals.

Indeed, the early days of the internet were precious. My afternoons were full of video games, anime, and chatting with girls from all over the country. If I got tired of it, I could just not log in there and waste away my hours playing video games.

Nowadays, the internet is about the loneliest thing on Earth. I meet more people outside who want to talk than I do on the damned internet.

"We want to be on the right side of history"

Kill yourself.

Yeah how about just being genuine rather than pandering to the widest possible range of people and not giving a single fuck about how you're viewed, you know, being *real* and letting the world judge you as it will.

But if you want to be mainstream and highly profitable, you've always got to be "fixing the world". Such transparent bullshit from an absolute husk of a company that offers no contribution of anything resembling meaningful creativity.

Get boosted.

When you consider that they no longer bother turning up for burglaries and never even started tackling online fraud etc because that's too much like hard work, yeah the police are fucking useless.

It's not a bug, it's a feature.

 

[DonDonDonPata]

Wouldn't be surprised if we begin seeing this stuff mentioned at industry events and Game of the Whatever awards.

Their totally-real-gamer executives already boast about diversity and inclusion in gaming. Why not boast about how their troll-catching software has reduced hate-crimes by xx.xx% in the online Ubiverse? All of this seems like investor bait, some shit they can bring up later to prop up the brand.

 

[Frito_Pendejo]

I mean, the good part about this is it's Ubisoft so police intervention is probably a paid DLC.

 

[Stifler's Mom]

My only experience with online communities apart from the red signs in Demon's Souls has been people calling me that f-word you can also use for cigarettes and a motherfucker in between rounds of Street Fighter 4 and 5.

And I always wondered how they can type that shit so fast with a pad or fight stick.
