The most stupid M+ Attitude I have ever seen

Maybe you should.

Wow, what a comeback.
Ok, I’ll reply in the same manner:

No you.

No worries, i did.

Good.
Then you now know I’m right.
I wish I wasn’t.

It pains me to agree with Tahra, but it is discrimination(which is a good thing):
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/discrimination
Apart from the definition most people think of, there are 2 additional meanings of the word:

  • the ability to recognize the difference between things that are of good quality and those that are not
  • the ability to understand that one thing is different from another thing

No it is not. The important thing is selecting/excluding based on irrelevant aspects.

Experience is relevant for M+.

For the dutchies wiki;
" Discriminatie is letterlijk ā€œhet maken van onderscheidā€. In de huidige maatschappelijke context betekent discriminatie: "het ongelijk behandelen van personen of groepen op basis van kenmerken van die personen of groepen die in de gegeven situatie niet relevant zijn.

But that’s not what she meant, we all know that.

Probably, I just needed to point out that discrimination is not a bad thing generally.

And I’ve agreed with that.
But there’s more to it, isn’t there? Yes. Yes there is.

I can’t believe how dishonest most of you just keep on being.
Man oh man.

Then we have different definitions of it; since on the dutch it is literally saying; treat people different of people or groups on aspects of those people or groups which are in given situation not relevant.

Which is very bad in my world.

No, we don’t ā€˜all know that’.
Because not everyone is in this to spin a better scenario for themselves.
Not everyone is in this to protect their own egos.

I’m not. I have no vested interest in this; I’m not running M+ regardless.
I’m looking at this objectively, factually and honestly.

And just because I’m maybe ā€˜hitting a bit too close to home’ for some of you, doesn’t change the facts.

You should become a comedian, that’s comedy gold right there.

It’s true. You can ridicule it all you want; won’t change a thing.

I am dishonest? I literally show the meaning of discrimination. I am not the one who is comparing groupmember selection with not allowing different skinned colored people in the bus. I am not using the word apartheid. It is all coming from you.

You asked for looking up. I gave references. I gave all the information.

If the shoe fits.

At the very least you are not being ā€˜complete’ with your arguments.
Because yes, experience is relevant but it is NOT the only ā€˜judgement’ that’s being used when selecting people in LFG. That’s where your dishonesty lies in this matter.

Sure, nowadays some people have hijacked the word, but the original meaning has nothing to do with race/gender/ethnicity

Experience is the only way of selecting. You tell me what other things we use? Oh right; classes with needed utility. Also very relevant for success of the run.

I prefer to use the meaning of the current (and the last decades).

And when someone shows up who’s ā€˜more qualified’, you’ll ā€˜ignore’ someone who’s also qualified just because it’ll make things easier and quicker. Upstanding behaviour that.

Ah, yes, no apparent reason at all.

The topic has long diverted from the ā€œThis guy is a doucheā€ (which basically everyone agreed upon), and people started talking about the ethics about inviting/not inviting someone and some sort of automated matchmaking/LFR-type system for M+. An input from a person who doesn’t do and and has no intent to do this type of content on this kind of topic, especially when they already expressed that they’d rather dumb down the content than address all the complications a potential automated system would cause (like group composition in regards to affixes etc.), is most definitely irrelevant. It’s the very same reason I don’t talk about stuff like PvP, content I’m very much unfamiliar with.

If you think it’s wrong, then by all means, present your own opinion- just spare me this ā€œpersonal attack for no reasonā€ nonsense.

I don’t know, is this a throwaway phrase then? Besides that, you literally compared not inviting someone to a group to ā€œmarking jews with a starā€ and "not letting a black person sit on certain seats in a busā€. Are bus manufacturers also bigots if their buses happen to not be able to fit in all the people on the bus stop?
