Well, that’s kind of my point.
You can make anything into a problem if you dislike ‘something’.
The problem is the dislike. Not the ‘thing’ being there.
I was scrolling down this thread, replies appearing faster than I could read them, and when somebody asked about Body 3 I said aloud “Drakthyr”. Scroll down 3 seconds later and find this.
You also mentioned you write stories? Excellent, so do I but atm mostly for my DnD games and world. And it’s painful seeing what the ‘writers’ of WoW are doing to its world. And I’m not even on about agendas. Just in general, it’s become so stale, plain, bland and empty. It’s either extreme grimdark SL or extreme drug-trip happy in DF. No nuance, no balance.
Just because many of us think differently about this subject, doesn’t mean we’re not allowed to express our opinions about it in here. You opened that door and let everyone in.
The forum has a lot of insecure young male people that on one hand try to call everyone not their opinion a snowflake while behaving like the insecure snowflakes they are.
Sadly the forum moderation isn’t willing to stop crap like that. So, all we can do is block, report, repeat.
Got it. That’s a huge problem for me on a regular basis.
I’m working on a science-fantasy novel where one of the main character is a female from an advanced civilization who basically gets stranded on a planet in a medieval setting and has to deal with theocracy and other crap.
Given her nature and the knowledge she has, I have to be very careful not to turn her into a mary sue.
But in this case we’re talking about the desire to completely ignore the existance of other human beings. That isn’t and shouldn’t be something that other people have to put ANY stock in. Just like other undesirable behaviours aren’t promoted or supported.
