LGBTQ+ Megathread & Lounge (Part 1)

This one.

Thatā€™s the thing right. Itā€™s just a general discussion post thatā€™s devoid of any kind of gender or sexual orientation. That was the point I was making before the person muted me. Itā€™s just a discussion forum thatā€™s all encompassing.

I dont mind people asking to be called whatever they want.
As long as they dont demand people say things it is their right to ask and generally a courtesy most people will comply with.

:rotating_light: Long post alert.:rotating_light:

People arenā€™t smearing you by pointing out your anti-LGBT+ behavior.

The purpose of this thread has been explained to you several times but it seems you are intentionally ignoring that.

You have been told repeatedly to mute the thread, reported, and go on your way and yet you continue and all the while playing victim because you were held accountable.

You came in accusing us of having superiority complexes. You were never interested in a normal or conversation. You were the really horrible person that decided to come in to our chill space and antagonize us for fun.

Do not get to play the victim. You are the abuser here and you have been since the beginning.

I mean your hatred of LGBT+ people was clear when you accused people who were talking about the new expansion of having superiority complexes just for chilling and minding our own business.

If you didnā€™t want to look bad you could not posted in the thread to begin with.

You came in here accusing a bunch of people who were just chilling and vibing of having superiority complexes. Then you have the audacity to call the people addressing that nonsense dumb, douchebags, scumbags, and blame them for what you brought upon yourself.

You reap what you sow. You planted bad seeds, and you got responses pointing that out. Youā€™re not the victim here.

You started with aggression in the first place. If you didnā€™t want aggression in return you could have not accused people of having complexes, being bad people and douchebags for standing up to your nonsense, calling them scumbags, etc.

We donā€™t owe people you obedience or submission or silence in the face of your nonsense.

If you want this to stop, apologize, mute the thread, and move on.

Actually, I think itā€™s you that is the jerk, and that you accusing people of having superiority complex is this what caused the threat to spin out of control not me standing up to you and holding you accountable for what you said.

Holding you accountable for things you really wrote is not smearing. If you didnā€™t want the bad things you said thrown in your face then maybe you shouldnā€™t have posted them.

Oh you sweet summer child, I donā€™t think Iā€™m fighting a war. Iā€™m just amusing myself for the time being at your total nonsense. Youā€™re incredibly funny with all your projection.

This is literally true. We just want to chill and vibe here, and we have plenty of cisgender and heterosexual friends that vibe with us and we have a good time until forum warriors come in here and make a fuss about us existing and start nonsense.

The purpose of this thread was explained to you several times. In English. By multiple posters. You have ignored them to keep whining about this.

You can make any kind of discussion thread you want so long as it doesnā€™t violate the code of conduct. For a while one of my alts had a cat thread. It started out one day when there were a lot of drama threads going on and no mods. So I made a thread that said the mods were asleep post some cats. And when the mods woke up I changed the name to cat thread or something. And the mods didnā€™t do anything to it they just left it there and for a couple of weeks we just had a cat thread on the forms and everybody seemed to enjoy it and post cats. Literally nobody cared.

I donā€™t see you in the regular mega thread complaining, I donā€™t see you in any of the customization mega threads complaining, but somehow LGBT+ is not okay. Golly gee gosh I wonder why that is.

Seconded. Definitely go make a thread on Pelagos.

Did you miss the intro post to the thread that explain what the thread was for because it covered all of this.

I mean, you came in here swinging and saying we had superiority complexes. Thatā€™s aggressive and invites an aggressive response.

Yes. Exactly.

As a cisgender heterosexual person you arenā€™t really cognizant of the importance of your gender identity and sexuality because you were raised with it normalized so being heterosexual and cisgender doesnā€™t take any thought or defense.

Are you pondering what Iā€™m pondering Pinky?

Iā€™m not at all triggered or even angry. I just enjoy slapping down nonsense.

Use heterosexual. Itā€™s only the short forms that are banned.

People have started to heterosexual megathread three or four times now, it always gets deleted.

Every time it happens, they always copy the first post from this thread and change up the words as a form of mockery starting the whole thread off in bad faith.

It doesnā€™t get deleted because of the thread itself, it usually winds up getting deleted because people come into it and basically spew hate speech against LGBT+ people.

Hey pot, this is kettle.

Burden of proof is on me, so I did uncollapse their prior posts (since I put them on ignore) to find them for you:

I would constitute the general lounge thread to not be about WoW from time to time, the same way this thread can be.

Sigh,
Indeed. There is no other LGBTQĀ±like discussion lounge for any other marginalized groups. So I did not understand why there was on for LGBTQ+ people.

But true. That was was the crux of the entire discussion before people like you and a few others just bullied the crap out of me. Was nice to have someone actually talk to me honestly and openly instead of treating me like I hate LGBTQ+ people.

I mean, they didnā€™t write anything malicious and I agree with who you posted.

Donā€™t engage anymore. Just walk away. Iā€™m fixing to do the same.

I didnā€™t say malicious. I said stirring the pot and not being consistent with their stance. If this is truly about sticking with WoW whereā€™s the hate on the other lounge thread? Why is it only this thread? Makes no sense.

'Cause BOTH threads are guilty of just being ā€œgeneral loungingā€ and not always talking about the game. Why is THIS the issue in regards to ā€œnot sticking with the gameā€? It makes NO sense!

I believe people should be free to be what they want as long as their freedom does not encroach upon someone elseā€™s freedom.
Prob my last post in this thread as it has nothing to do with me or my life.
If they allow a straight only thread I guess I will post in that one. Shame on Blizzard though if they do not. Good Luck people.

Why canā€™t we have a mage to take us to an Irish pub and we all respect and talk and drink together.

That would be the way.

Okay. I have laundry that needs putting away.

They wouldnt allow that and shouldnt. This isnt an LGBTQ+ only thread either.

Everytime someone does try starting up a straight megathread it just devolves into trolling and/or bigotry though.

Iā€™d suggest staying in here an chilling, you donā€™t have to be LGBT+ to be here, just be chill. From your recent comments in here you seem pretty dope :man_shrugging:

How is discriminating against LGBTQ people not encroaching on their freedom?

I read it as him saying he doesnā€™t have an issue with LGBT people because it doesnā€™t encroach on his freedom. Happy to be corrected.

Given the enthusiasm he has for a ā€œstraight threadā€, I suspect not.

Beware the dichotomy fallacy. Just because heā€™s proud of being straight doesnā€™t mean he is negative towards non-straights (I know ā€œstraight prideā€ is often used to achieve hate, I honestly donā€™t believe itā€™s the case all the time though)

I grew up with a narcissistic mother who was very abusive.

I have also dealt with a couple of narcissists on the server I play on over the years.

Iā€™m very familiar with all of the maneuvers of abusive people such as trying to be nice and make up, love bombing, triangulation, gaslighting, and so on.

That nonsense doesnā€™t usually work on me because I can see through it.

Iā€™d like to talk about the upcoming expansion now.

This is a literal argument used by white supremacists.

How about that new character from the cinematic?

Hold on, lemme find a picture of himā€¦

Ah, there we go!
