btw there's LGBT communities here : https://eu.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/17620841922?page=1
Good thing it has literally nothing to do with you.20/07/2018 14:48Posted by ScrimjawMaking 'communities' with group titles such as this is appalling in my eyes.
Please, continue your "I'm so offended that there is a community of people that I'm more than welcome to join but I'm still going to pretend it's not because I'm a bigot because that would make me wrong" rant.
I tried to join but it's not working.
I paste the link, hit join and nothing happens.
Anyone know what's wrong? D:

LOL. I really do not understand why anyone gets bent out of shape by what others do, especially when it does not hurt anyone in any way. I fail to see how this is different than various ‘expat’ forums out on the Internet where people sometimes want to talk with others facing similar issues or challenges. It is not like suddenly the rest of the world disappears and is no longer interacted with.
To each, their own. :)
Edit: Would be nice for a communities sub forum, though. I mean, one exists already for LF others PvE and PvP...

An italian community would mean isolate the italians? Not at all.
Yes it does, most Italians I meet are not very well versed in English, and thats because they stick to themselves and use an Italian game client.
Ofc. but not all. Im playin in English client but i would like to join an italian community.
If im more confortable to stay in the Italian community is not a bad thing. But i dont isolate myself cuz i would join in the pizza community, Politics community, Star wars community, mages community, TikTakToe lovers community usw.
Some ppl will stay just in "X"community but maybe b4 they played without any interaction.
And NOONE have the right to criticize'em.

Has nothing to do with me? I'm a wow player and I use the forums. So when I see a group made which has a title which is the definition of segregation I want to question it.

The title alone defines what its intent is. Cis or whatever the rest of the population is defined by those who want to stand out from crowd, are obviously not allowed in that particular community. As defined in its title.
Please feel free to answer any of the questions I raised in my original post though. Or you could continue to get defensive and call names some more.
20/07/2018 14:41Posted by YolandassI probably should not be admiting this online but when i was 12 Years old i used to feel like im Bi person for a short time until i realized some things about my self like where i feel comfortable in so i became Straight at the end(ouch that hurt my soul to admit T.T).
No, that's perfectly normal- at that age you're going through puberty and your hormones are raging you'd need quite some time to got used to it and learn about you body and your gender traits.
I know that when I was a teen I delt with it badly. But once I was 20 I was very comfortable because I fully embraced my gender traits and role. Though I always considered myself straight but I don't have trouble admitting someone is good looking.
But now ot - ... I'll just say that I won't support it. Especially the type of education they're injecting on kids and teens who should be spared from it until they reach adulthood.

So you wouldn't want to put someone who is hostile to you into "them" category and wouldn't want to surround yourself with people who are at least neutral to you, because it's segregation and isolation. Got it, an easy concept to grasp even for me.
If you so choose to misintrepert it, yes but that is on you.
I do this thing called "people". I don't segregate, separate or otherwise create division based on their looks, interests, opinions or sexuality. I do so on their actions and merits and then figure out whetever they deserve the respect or simply to be shoved aside.
I have fixed the original link, it was set to expire. It's now a forever link.

Wanna bet I could join them while being cis and straight?
Am I the only gay person who has never experianced homophobia towards me in the game?
20/07/2018 14:42Posted by TèslaOP: add group here https://eu.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/17620841922?page=3

I bet you could, I bet I could.
Still my questions stand from my original post.
Why bring your sexual orientation into a game/forum like this? What does that actually have to do with anything, to anyone or wow in general?
Has nothing to do with me? I'm a wow player and I use the forums. So when I see a group made which has a title which is the definition of segregation I want to question it.OP clearly has not excluded anyone except for those who wouldn't want to be there anyway. If you feel excluded it is your own fault.

Yes, keep teens repressed and depressed until they reach adulthood. It's the same as with sex education, it makes adults for some reason uncomfortable but it's necessary. Don't turn into grandpa and really try to remember how you were when you were young. I think it's awesome that young people see that they aren't alone.

The question remains, why not name it say, Sanctuary then?

Sorry to burst your bubble but absolutely no one cares :)
As a side note, as apparently most of you don't have enough grey in your heads, labels aren't cool and labels don't define !@#$ :) Each person is so much more than his skin color, gender, sexual orientation, etc. Labels are created so that people can be divided into different groups for them to be later on influenced more easily.
Being gay is a mental condition like any other. Being "abnormal" naturally makes you feel uncomfortable. The media literally takes this group of people, caresses them telling them how they're the most perfect being out there and that they're actually completely normal, and all of a sudden they've won this whole group of people by targeting their "weakness" so to speak.
It's actually for the safety of those very people to ditch the stupid labels, accept the fact that they have a yet incurable mental condition, learn to live with it and join the community as a whole making the best of their lives (as should anyone, really).
And don't get me wrong - I could care less for people's mental conditions. But I do care when people constantly shove things I don't care about into my %^-*!@# face. Gay pride here, gay pride there, rainbow flags everywhere, men walking as if they're on fashion show and women walking as if they're about to pound the hell out of someone, people participating in LGBT guilds so that they can shove their sexual orientation in the face of everyone in-game, etc. And when I get back from work and turn my TV on literally every single modern TV show should either have a gay/lesbian main protagonist or some sort of homosexual p0rn scenes in almost every episode. Gay people are statistically so few that out of the dozens of dozens of people around me I don't know of a single person that is gay. Yet when I watch TV, browse the internet or just play a damn video game it appears as if 9 out of 10 people are gay which is getting absurd. I'm honestly tired of rainbows, the four letters in LGBT and all this homosexual p0rn in the media at this point.
Making a Straight White Males community sounds rather absurd, right? Making parades in the city center about my straightness is even more absurd, right? Hell... if I parade about my whiteness they will lock me up in jail for being fascist... Hope you get my point :)
