There's been a big rise in public focus on mental disabilities in recent years, and along with that has come increased use of those disabilities as insults. Many players are mentally disabled themselves and may take offence to hearing their disabilities trivialized, they come to play video games to enjoy themselves, not to hear people take a very real and painful part of their lives and use it to put down another person.
I'm not much for political correctness myself, but that sort of behavior doesn't have a place in video games, something that's meant to be an escape from real world problems. So I'd like to suggest today that albeist behavior be added to the rules along with discriminations, to discourage persistent use of the terms. Obviously in this day and age nobody views retarded as an ableist phrase, but such things like repeatedly calling people on your team autistic for not doing what you want should not be looked upon as lightly as it is.
