And yet it hasn’t.

I take situations as they come IC. I mentioned before about one of my homosexual characters having a child. That was an interesting plotline that continues now by the fact the child is with them.
That isn’t relevant to the point I am making. I am talking strictly numbers. An orphan has already been produced and part of the population pool. Adopting doesn’t fix a population crisis. It has the potential to make it worse.
Yes but same sex couples don’t produce offspring.
I have repeated myself enough on this point. I am not addressing it anymore.
just don’t RP against the ToS lol

Then everyone should just RP nice characters who don’t say mean things.
The terms of service talk about abusing players, not fictional characters in the context of RP.
If this isn’t the case, blizzard need to come out and say “you will be banned if you RP a character who says offensive things”.

“Adopting has the potential to make it worse”
y wot m8
But I literally provided the means for them to do so just a handful of posts ago. Conveniently ignoring it does not remove it.
yeah true people also shouldn’t swear crazily, should just stick to things with a precedent in-universe that don’t break the ToS i think
so not homophobes lol

No. There are plenty of not nice tropes you can choose from that are supported by lore.
There is a player behind any character. Just because you say things IC doesn’t mean the ToS doesn’t apply.
Blizzard said multiple times that it’s up to the community to self regulate and report ToS breaking behaviour.

Somebody else gave birth to that child. If you adopt, you are probably not going to have a child of your own so the population doesn’t grow.
It’s maths.
It makes you look like the opposite sex. There is nothing to say that you would be fertile like that.
My characters see such as beneath them anyway.
I have supported myself with lore.
Then everyone should just not RP with people they don’t know under fear of they will get banned because they hurt that person’s feelings because their character said something mean to the other person’s character.
And this thread doesn’t speak on behalf of the entire community.
nooo let me be homophobic raaagh!
what a wack take, come on now.

Got it, so let’s villainise people that are sterile and infertile too.
No, it reverses your gender. As in, turns you into the opposite sex.
You have not.
I don’t want to be homophobic. I just want to RP my characters how I want to within the confines of the world.
Sure. I’m sure some of my characters will find these sorts useless to solving a population crisis.
Yes. But I do not believe it makes you viable to reproduce.
Hurting someone’s feelings is not the same as acting against the ToS lol. One is subjective and up for debate, the other is the written rules you’re agreed to when joining in.
You have supported yourself with an interpretation of the lore you’re basing on irl logic.
And racism is against the ToS. So that means elves should not think themselves above other races or say so openly by your logic.
Completely useless and best thrown aside, yes.
Based on what, exactly? The sole lore for it states it turns the drinker into the opposite gender, why would they not be viable to reproduce? 'sides, you’re using headcanon to justify homophobia, so in my headcanon it’s a very useful means of solving this crisis. And unlike yours, that’s actually supported in the lore based on what the tincture is said to do.

Irelia, unless your character is a very opinionated statistician with the entire demographic data of their race at hand, you might be somewhat grasping at straws at this point.
Have you ever RPed an elf? They are rather practical and less forgiving that we as people are.
Sure. You can believe what you want with the pot. As is your freedom to do so under your interpretation of the lore.
I’ve only seen evidence that supports that these sexual lifestyles exist. Nothing to say that some people will develop opinions against them. But that is as much as I going into it as it is getting tiring repeating the same thing now.
No. You just like to think that.
That fantasy racism is supported by the lore though… fantasy homophobia isn’t. Why is this so hard?
It’s simple logic. Adopting doesn’t grow a population.
