I get it… if you don’t want your thread deleted or a ban, you just need to put LGB something something in the title…
No no no, you need to make sure your OP of the thread doesn’t have anything that is technically in violation of ToS. Which, OP has done and usually does with his threads. If anything I feel like it should be considered spam, especially when they made several threads with similar topics and they are all active… bumping it after three days doesn’t help.
It’s been addressed and covered, even though many of us feel or know (or think we know) that they are trolling, Blizzard made their assessment and disagreed. Threads like this are NOT immune from deletion and posters like OP have had vacations before.
Not really. I’m following forum rules and within forum CoC. I’m doing nothing wrong by voicing my feedback.
I know people have a hard time understanding this, as saying anything related to lgbt seems to bring all the haters into this thread to try and take it down. Just glad blizzard can see this and I hope these posters get punished for acting that way!
You’re trolling, while staying within the rules.
That’s still trolling.
It’s like " I’m not touching you!! I’m not touching you!! "
I think you are doing a disservice by scaring people away from posting their feedback and opinions. You’re free to post what you like, but I’m also free to ignore and giggle at you because you think anything you don’t agree with is trolling.
I think this is dumb just be the gender you were born
we still going at it
I have never understood this mentality that what some stranger in a video game says can cause actual harm. I’ve been called things before online that I do not like, but never taken it to heart. If they are being a jerk like in your example of mislabeling (assuming its intentional), just /ignore them.
Well, allow me to explain why that is.
Labeling people as bigots without any proof is not only stupid it assumes the person doing the labeling is the moral arbiters on the issue and has the right to speak for everybody if they are not trolling… (which they don’t and they are not), but also presents a potential of ruining their reputation, inciting hatred against them, or worse, even get them fired.
And i know what you’re thinking “Don’t be a jerk then”, that’s a fine enough advice. But it wouldn’t matter to them even if you weren’t a jerk to them. Or even if you did anything to them at all considering they don’t even need you to have done anything to label you as a bigot.
You can be the nicest person on the planet, but because you disagreed with them, to them, that’s being a jerk and they will treat you as such, making you look like a jerk in the process, so that advice isn’t exactly helpful.
And the scary thing is, they don’t believe in ‘innocent until proven guilty’ process, they want ‘guilty until proven innocent’. Or most of the time, ‘guilty until proven guilty’. Which i don’t think anybody wants. Context is everything.
And i know, i know, you think OP is trolling. But OP has been at it for way too long to a point where to give him the benefit of the doubt that he’s not serious, along with Talonel, whom especially the latter is even using his own hypocrisy to tell people to stop using language that harms people while using language that also harms people though mislabeling… It gets to the point where calling it trolling is simply excusing it.
This behavior isn’t just exclusive to the Forums, but seen on YouTube, also unironically, like channels like Riley J Dennis, or Jim Sterling sometimes. Or any other progressive that aren’t in it for equality.
When It comes out of your mouth,It is trolling.
You’re are the one doing a disservice by scaring people away from posting their feedback and opinions.
LOOOOOOL this is blizzard, not FFXIV. They will NOT enforce it. They can barely enforce bans on bots in classic, its as bad as Lost ark bots problem.
When It comes out of your mouth,It is trolling.
Wrong again.
You’re are the one doing a disservice by scaring people away from posting their feedback and opinions.
The projecting is coming from you
It’s basically a very extreme form of advocacy where the people who take pride in being advocates turn into the very things they hate but their brains justify their usage of such behavior because it’s for a cause they believe in. But then they’ll chastise that same line of logic when someone on the other side uses it.
It’s literally the spiderman meme where they’re pointing at each other.
It’s all so tiresome.
Imagine playing a game where you believe every player is toxic except yourself. Yet refuse to leave said game. It is indeed all so tiresome.
I think this is dumb just be the gender you were born
Everyone is, trans is a social construct, just self proclaimed titles. To each their own as we all have our fantasies about life. My only issue is why even want a change to a fantasy world like WoW. Most seem to play it to get away from the real, so why is the LGBTQ community so set on making WoW a reflection of real life. Just odd, yet to hear a logical reason for it.
so why is the LGBTQ community so set on making WoW a reflection of real life
Infiltrate and destroy “problematic” hobbies is the mission for a lot of people these days.
Essentially what i’ve been saying for a good while now: Hatred begets Hatred.

I’l say this right now, there’s nothing inherently wrong with having LGBT characters. I mean some of the greatest games of all time allow you to either create some or you meet some.
But i don’t think they realize what they want is either at best, when removed from context is pretty much meaningless as representation (for instance, pride day. That came because of hatred, and given that homophobia isn’t canon in Azeroth, this can’t realistically exist because everybody is already getting along.) or at worst, make the LGBTQ community look bad though special treatment, inciting hatred against anybody who isn’t (which in turn comes right back to you in a cycle of hatred, it doesn’t go one way.), as well who disagrees with you (which mind you, some of them LGBT), or just don’t see them as people, but rather propaganda machines.
I infiltrate and destroy my bathroom everyday,
DIE TOIL-LIT!!
Smashes the toliet with a sledgehammer multiple times.
I infiltrate and destroy my bathroom everyday, very problematic for those that follow. Maybe we should put that in the game. Put on your mic, headset and nose piece, time to add the lovely smells of real life while you play.
Infiltrate and destroy “problematic” hobbies is the mission for a lot of people these days.
Spoken like a true conspiracy theories.
so why is the LGBTQ community so set on making WoW a reflection of real life.
Why do we have female and male characters? It doesn’t need to be a reflection of real life.
Why do we have humans?
Why do breasts exist in game?
Why do kings exist in game?
Why do people fight in the game?
We need our fantasy to exclude all real life elements, because we are here to escape the things like war, men, women, humans, animals, and all that other real life crap.
Just make everyone grey featureless blobs.
See when they copy paste real life things you think is “normal” it’s okay. But the MINUTE something you don’t personally identify with enters the game, it’s “Forcing in IRL stuff”
Literally fastest way to out a bigot “Why does your fantasy world have real life concepts, but not concepts you dislike personally?”
Edit:
“get away from real life”
So LGBTQ+ people are things you “Want to get away from”?
Interesting, please, out yourself more.
