What is a PCU?

Galford is truly the most oppressed minority because he :poop: on transpeople and tries to zing me by dismissing harassment I’ve received.

What a brave man standing up against those who silences him.

if it makes people feel comfortable with themselves and the intent isnt deceptive then literally what harm is in it
can we not demonize every little pocket of respite marginalized groups have like its meant to attack and dethrone God

The OG Arathi norfen RPer Galford wants to emulate, Cathan Felian.

Yes. :fist:

God is dead. Galford killed them.

riddle me this galford

if voice changers should be banned because one person used it to groom a child/be a creep/whatever, then you too should be banned because there’s way too many conservatives who have groomed children

sorry you made the rules, you are banned now.

I argue differently, that if it’s used as a coping mechanism then it’s rational to self medication or treatment for security issues. If someone feels they need to digitally alter themselves to appear differently whilst not telling anyone, then they should definitely try and work on becoming more confident rather than using it as a reliant.

I agree there, if they were using it as a coping mechanism for comfort socially I wouldn’t agree. They should again, try and face how they sound and accept it. My issue with promoting this sort of stuff, is it becomes habit, especially to children.

People are different, but the possibility still stands that it might not be beneficial. Dealing with security issues, it’s always best to talk about issues to someone rather than hide it away or create a false sense of identity by means of digital software. Again perhaps it could manifest into something like catfishing if we’re talking on social acceptance

To me deception is deception, lying, not the truth, not real. It doesn’t have to be nefarious, I could be told by my guild master that I need to tell a certain member to stop breaking rules, but out of empathy I don’t but tell the GM I did anyways. Because frankly I didn’t want to see the guild member get upset.

I deceived the GM, but frankly the member is still breaking rules.

(I appreciate you responding

My stigma with voice changers are they may not be inherently bad, not everyone may be a catfish, but what’s going on behind the screen needs to be noted. We can’t be reckless and encourage it, without warranting any of the cons that may come with it.

I just did.

Something about you flipping from denying Vixi her experience with harassment to this makes me feel majorly uncomfortable.

For the record, I want to state that Berach is entitled to his own (wrong) opinion. But disguising an obvious insecurity as “caring for others” is a huge yikes, especially when you have no experience in psychology nor in the provision of care.

Then, on top of that, this clearly isn’t an issue that affects Berach yet he’s unwilling to perceive and accept other people’s opinions, experiences and reasonings.

Absolutely bananas.

Because she’s bothering to actual put effort into a response lol

No, it just sets off my sociopath alarm.

I am willing to accept someone being open that using a voice changer is beneficial moreso with cons

It’s honestly more than you deserve given the quantity of vile takes you’ve spewed in this thread alone.

But you are forgetting, mister Galford, that the people’s flag is deepest red and often shrouds the martyred dead.

Trans-people and trans-allies (in the particular context of someone being trans, since that’s where this all started) in this thread are telling you differently based on their lived experiences. What is your basis for arguing?

As to Bee’s earlier questions, it doesn’t seem to be based on experience with therapy/counseling/studies with coping mechanisms for trans-people.

But we’re all telling you about how it can be used for beneficial purposes, and you’re arguing the toss against it.

Because they should be more confident!
The tools that give them confidence and comfort shouldn’t be used.
