Insensitive Death Message?

[Macaw12]

Suicide is not something to joke about, yet one of the death messages that appears when someone dies in Team Skywars is about suicide. [Others mentioned that] Younger kids won't understand how serious it is if it's used as a joke. “[Player Name] committed suicide.” Should this be removed? (Appears at the bottom of the screenshot)

Wow I never thought about that. You have a good point. Majority of the players are kids, and they won't understand the seriousness of suicide.

I agree. Suicide is not a thing to joke about, especially from this young generation.

I've actually wanted this to be removed from the moment I saw it, suicide is definetly not something to joke about. I'm sure vertx or whoever added it meant it as a joke, but its not a funny joke and should be taken seriously.

Now that I think about it... yeah... little kids won’t understand this and it shouldn’t be a joke.

even though im 16 im mature enough and would never joke about the word sucide. its a word that should never be laughed/spoken about, but overall i agree with this thread

I completely agree. I overlooked how bad that message really was.
Maybe it should be replaced with "(player name) did a big oof"

I'm truly glad this subject was brought up, as it needs to be dealt with.

So that’s why in Splatter it says “Oops you died” instead of “You committed suicide”.

I mean, you guys kinda have to consider the fact English isn’t Vertx’s first language so whenever this was done maybe he thought it meant something else, he’s certainly not the type of person to joke about such a serious matter so there was definitely no offense intended either way.
