It never was, but pretending not to know or heard or seen means you can always deny the fact.
Almost like real life and wars and politics and all, just pretend you didn’t know!
You’re applying social justice and being far-left leaning to opinions on a forum without knowing where they lean, neither are applicable in the case you’re trying to make.
It is not exclusively left or right to not want a minor to potentially be caught up in ERP in this game or even online, to insist that it is is just ridiculous. Given recent allegations and alleged activity being exposed by and about streamers regarding sexual activity online it is clear that this needs a discussion that doesn’t just end with people like you screaming that this is the far-left on an agenda.
You see, your naivety on how politics effects our every day lives even on our favourite online games is not of my concern, I will just carry on with my day while you reply with sarky comments with this “hah, gotcha” attitude. No skin off my back (not like I have much skin there as an Undead…)
That’s where you’re wrong, because what you want (in the OP) is not the exclusive outcome of one country, it’s global. Another person who hasn’t got a clue on how and why politics effects our every day lives.
Do you not read? Blizzard already takes action against players who write such in public chat channels and even in whispers, if the victim reports them.
You, being the extreme person you are, are asking for a purge on a whole “RP hub” (regardless of its purpose and intent) because you, yourself cannot handle the experience you’ve dealt with by being a responsible adult (assuming you’re an adult) by using the necessary tools; AKA REPORT ABUSE.
Instead of going on your little crusade of “ermahgerd i hate this place blizz pls ban them all” why don’t you ignore and/or report the players who’re breaking the rules? or are you just desperately seeking attention on the forums?
Literally pulling this out of thin air. LMAO, quote where I said this. I said that people are free to privately RP with each other in private channels, obviously if both are consenting adults, they would do just that.
Not once did I say what you’re suggesting; so as I’ve stated already, you are a clear example of a social justice warrior.
I literally just asked you a question, because I was confused, you didn’t answer it, leaving me confused.
And I’m snarky for it?
If you say so I guess.
I know politics affect our lives, but you didn’t explain how Left Wing Politics in particular relates to people wanting Goldshire “deviants” banned?
Seems to me whether one accepts stuff like that or not, is not related to politics. But rather “personal morals” or whatever you wanna call it.
Isn’t it blatantly obvious if you can already read these kind of people like a book? Yes, because it is.
It’s clear that you’re not understanding the context or my perspective whatsoever.
Like I have already said, the OP wants to ban all/purge Goldshire because of the possibility that a minor could get caught up in erotic role play, when, like I have said multiple times now, the report feature is there and if a profile is an addon’s profile (which they’d need to install) has NSFW info on it, then they can also report the profile to Blizzard.
I am literally quoting what Blizzard themselves would say, and yet you’re gas-lighting and projecting.
only because a game has a report feature doesnt mean everyone is allowed to erpg or break the rules how they please.
pure speculation. you do not know what blizzard would say. nobody does that. you are way too speculative. you assume peoples political leaings, you assume what blizzard would say about subject x.
you think you know whats going on and what people think, but in reality, you dont.
You’re not even from Argent Dawn so don’t worry, you won’t have a clue what ERP or Goldshire is. The context just isn’t there for you.
I can simply re-explain what it is for you, though: There’s a bunch of players who dance naked on tables for gold and stand around being erotic with each other, also a lot of lollers.
There’s a RP addon where you can write info about your character for others to see. People were writing some crazy stuff, so Blizzard took action and many have been suspended for such already.
The OP wants the whole place nuked because he/she assumes that there could be a minor there who gets exposed to it, even though players don’t randomly talk perverted to each other there because it’s against the rules and they’re aware of this, well, most sensible players are.
So my question to the OP is: If a minor did happen to go to Goldshire, what would they be exposed to exactly?
What is obvious is you have a short fuse and will instantly link peoples replies with the most current used buzzwords to categorise them and make yourself feel better with what you’re about to say.
You’re just as much the problem here.
That’s rich considering you missed the perspective within the conversation in place before you came in speaking your opinions like they’re facts.
Like I said…
Also let me add to this, not many adults are comfortable with this either.
Congratulations on linking your AD characters, but in my opinion, that doesn’t prove that you know anything about the context of this topic.
You’re welcome to your opinion, but all I’m doing is offering a different side to this coin. To this… story. This topic. You see, too many people (especially on the left, hence why I’ve made the connection) like to run with one narrative. “Alternative is BAD!” right? so it’s only right to call people out on what they really are, let’s just call a spade a spade, shall we?
I may have jumped the gun and I’m sorry for that, but I said you have missed the point of my replies to the OP.
You’re making it out like as if I’m defending pervs who try to ERP with minors, when that’s not at all the case.
I am literally typing (as you can read) that for a person to want to shut down a whole group for a few bad apples is a typical far-left ideological tactic. You can disagree with that all you want, but I stand by it regardless.
Also, as I have explained already, the OP has got you all believing that all it takes is for a minor to go to Goldshire and experience perverted RP/harassment, etc. That is false, because like I have already said 10 times, explicit material is not that open and available unless said minor downloaded TRP and individually checked-out each player’s profile until they found an explicit one, which they can then report and Blizzard can take necessary action.
So wrong. That’s just what you see at first glimpse, but there is so much more to it.
You are also blatantly lying, you said your friends got banned for erotic emotes. You know very well what goes on in there and private messages/instances afterwards.
Honestly? Your manipulative excuses trying to shift blame from politics to social justice and whatnot just to dismiss the topic? Avoiding basic ethics and morals?
You’re not fooling anyone, you’re just desperately trying to defend your little sex nest in Goldshire.
Same goes for you if we put it that way. To be fair, I get the feeling you don’t really know what you are talking about, if you defend minors visiting AD Goldshire.
Which also makes it obvious why you don’t link yours. You know exactly how your friends on AD would react to that. you are defending opinions that you wouldn’t defend if you weren’t semi-anonymous.
(Public) erotic roleplay does not belong in a PG-13 game
