You said thanks, not many bus drivers hear that I think. So that’s nice!
when are you getting married?
I’m sorry friend but as a Dust Devil
I’m already married to justice
no
What a grand input, so enlightening to know that you know more about my own experiences than I do. It’s not like I denied it happens, or was any less of an issue just because I haven’t happened to see it.
Homophobia in Roleplay = Bad, Period. Doesn’t matter what circumstance.
So role-play cannot ever cover contentious, deplorable topics and have villains that hold these beliefs? What about books, TV shows, movies, games?
Is homophobia the only conflict you can imagine lol
It has no place in a wish fulfillment setting for ages 13 and up
We’re not talking about other games. We’re talking about WoW. And it is against Terms of Service to express homophobic stuff, says so quite clearly.
Why have such boring beliefs, when there is endless opportunity for several other terms of conflict ?
for example, the void, world domination… world destruction, insatiable greed… Insatiable lust for power etc.
Tfw your villian can be anything from a bandit to eldritch horror cultist that feed on people minds, but someone choses homophobe.
Easiest boss fight yet. /ignore. Event over.
Or, extremly greed/powerhungry, leading you to manipulate others into getting you powerful artifacts etc… There’s tons of ideas.
instead of just.
“people who love same gender bad”
Speaking of homophobe… sees typing
0/10, didnt read. Too much Incel.
No, thus why in most of my postings, I’ve spoken vague and in reference to all contentious topics on a whole.
Plenty other things against the ToS that get covered during Role-Play. It is also why in my post that I referenced that such RP is probably better suited to smaller or private Role-play. My point is that I don’t think covering certain topics is inherently bad.
Yes, there are plenty of other sources for conflict, nowhere have I stated that all conflict need always arise from villains with particular contentious views, just that I don’t see the necessity to exclude them as if they’re inherently bad.
As I stated, I look at RP as a means to explore worlds and beliefs that are not always my own.
But homophobia is.
don’t need to because being gay is hard-coded into human nature
wanna hold hands later? just you and me, dude to dude.
there’s covering a topic (this thread) and there’s breaking the ToS to insert it into your RP.
Which shouldnt. Pro rpers can make epic funtime and stories without breaking the ToS.
