Even we're getting beat up, we'll try to win a consolation prize for ourselves by talking right back at the opponent.

That kind of thing can NOT be completely wiped off of the game, that's just what it is, period. We can ask the players to behave themselves in the game nicely, but whether or not they're listening remains to be seen.

Oh, forgot to mention that we have a rule in place particularly for talking foul languages in game, that's the least we have to prevent children from learning bad swear words and something.

Anyways, that's just the way it is, I'm also a big fan of basketball, trash talking isn't new to me anymore, Gary Payton, Kevin Garnett, and Matt Barnes etc, those guys are talking trash all the time on the court. You can give them T's to control the situation, but you can't change the characteristics of the person.

I usually just talk crap back and when I am tired of it ignore them lol. A lot of times it turns out the ones talking the most are the younger players and well I am 27 years old and have better things to do then argue with kids all day lol. I come on play a while and spend the rest of the day with my wife and kids or am at work or school.

So just black list the ones you can't shake off and ignore or retaliate appropriately when you choose to lol.

I do as well. So far today I have been an 11 year old egy noob camel jockey virgin who sleeps with my camel lmao. I just laugh when these people talk this way.
I am quite the noob since I have only been playing since January of this year but I have put a lot of time and money into the game as well as researching and reading up on stuff so noobas in new player yes, noob as in clueless no lol. Ususally when someone calls me a noob it is because I beat them too much and they are mad, so then the simple reply to this is "How long have you been playing?" Oh and defeated by someone who's played 4 months now whos the noob

Isn't there a way to mute players? I remember one of my friends got muted for a week for bad language a couple years ago.

Its rare that this happens, unless its extensive bad language over broadcast/world chat

Yeah, since egyptians take up the majority of the servers, they would be more lenient to mute non egyptians than those that are. But since there's a filter, it wouldn't be much of a use. Then again, the filter is easily bypassed.
