No. Buying 10 tokens per week while they are at the current 190k+.
I never said I was going to uninstall.
I’ve said, from the get go, that I’m staying. You’re confusing me with someone else. Either that or you’re outright lying. I can’t tell with you anymore.
If Roux was actually being racist/sexist, I absolutely wouldn’t be saying the things I’ve said. But neither is true, and the trogs keep getting their knickers in a twist over it because their masculinity is so fragile that you could shatter it by hitting it with a pillow.
Because dev’s should be listened to as much as salty players on the forums why?
IF???
Yes, if, because I do not consider what she said to be racist or sexist.
Really that simple.
And before anyone asks, yes I am white, yes I am a man behind the keyboard. But I have enough brains to know what the context behind those tweets were, that the context is important and that she was not talking about people like me.

Gonna have a hard time disproving those twitter links i’ve linked as “false”, but i’m sure your counter point will be a doozy.
"Actually, i disagrrrrreeeee! "
If she has not mentioned any sort of race and gender and haven’t talked down or insulted them, etc in these twitter comments, then you would be correct in saying she’s not racist/sexist. But she did mention “white men”. Which last time i check, are a race and a gender that exists. Meaning she’s making it about race and gender, and then proceeding to insult or put down the race/sex she’s against. She wasn’t even targeting a specific individual over anything the person says, but a specific group, based on the virtue of the external traits they had no say over.
We both know if she’s talking about anybody else, like black women for example, nobody in their right mind say she isn’t, and even her hardcore defenders will turn on her. The only thing worse is if she brings in sexual preferences.
Edit: Ignore the ping, i just had to fix this part.
And to be very honest, your comment here is pretty …alarming to say the least. You’re essentially saying that we can’t be offended by this because of… what exactly?.. What’s your reason on why we can’t be offended by this or find this offensive here?
And don’t tell me you didn’t imply or say that, because then you wouldn’t have made that comment otherwise, the “Oh it’s because their masculinity is so fragile” comment that is essentially telling us were wrong to take offense to that.
Do you know the context behind those tweets? Look at the dates, and I mean really look at them. Can you take a wild guess? I’ll clue you in. The 8th of November 2016 is when the American Presidential election ended. Donald Trump and Mike Pence were elected to the Presidency. The vast majority of their voters? White men. That’s the demographic. So she is upset at a demographic that put a racist bigot in the White House and who screwed America for 4 years, just like he screwed his own businesses.
A lot of people were upset at white men during that time. And I don’t blame them at all for venting their anger at the demographic that largely voted for Mango Mussolini. That’s why I don’t consider it racist or sexist, because it was political frustration being vented at the demographic that got Trump elected to the White House.
That’s your reason? Dates? Just because something is old, doesn’t mean it’s invalid. I mean if that’s your reason, then you would think that invalidates a lot of nasty things said to spefific groups and such, because… look at the dates!
But that literally has nothing to do with her comments. She doesn’t even mention trump or make a hint that it’s about trump, even with the dates. Remove the dates and you will go from having a 7% of an idea where she’s coming from, to 0%. Heck, one of them is from 2018. Long after the election.

How does this answer you’ve given make these tweets suddenly not racist/sexist or not hateful?
I fail to see how this is a bad thing as you are suggesting here. It’s just a reporting of what kind of people voted and how much.
Look, i hate Trump as much the next liberal, and if he had done or said racist things in the past, sure. (Though why you’re not dismissing Trump for the same way your dismissing Roux for the dates is kind of hypocritical…)
But that’s literally no excuse for Ronx to say what she did. If anything, it would’ve been the perfect opportunity to… you know… be above that? Not be hateful? Maybe even look into why people were voting for Donald Trump?.. I mean i’m a liberal white man… (well classic liberal these days), and i understand why some might want to vote for him. If not for those who are more interested in saying your freedom to vote makes you a bad person unless you vote for our side, it’s another reason, like… gee. i don’t know… this stuff about Hillary?
That literally excuses nothing.
Hatred to a specific group is still hatred. It doesn’t get exceptions because it happened to be a group that is a majority demographic in the USA, or what she is or who she vote for even. I mean people still wonder why racism and xexism still exists, and yet at the same time, okay, don’t mind or actually get annoyed when people complain about those people being racist/sexist to white men. Like do they (the people hating white men) not think that will create more racism/sexism?..
You do not fight fire with more fire. You fight fire with water.
true to form
Then they wouldn’t have employees to make the game better.
Devs get rid of microtransactions. Don’t be “that company.”
Microtransactions with electronics Arts we’re not the problem I really don’t think you understand what you’re talkin about.
What you bought in the microtransactions was the problem. What you bought in the microtransactions was the main way to progress in the game. Even then you weren’t guaranteed the exact items because it was loot crate’s and it was random.
To rephrase selling a mount is not a problem. Selling anima needed for game progression and that’s the only way to get it with no other methods being available in game is a problem. That’s basically what Electronic Arts did and that’s why there was such an uproar.
SWTOR sells loot crate’s with random items in it. There is no uproar are public outcry because it’s only cosmetic items in the crates and the same cosmetic items in the crates are available through other methods in the game. Please understand what you’re talking about before bringing something up
It’s weird when people who are subscribed to this game say this…
You’re paying to post on these forums…
Oh so sexism and bigotry are excusable if the opponent is guilty of same?
Afrasiabi didn’t say or do anything in game or on the forums, either.
Exactly. Just go.
That’s what I would say too. The problem with virtue signaling is when people like me remember that you made claims you would never back up and I remind you of your transgressions. You’re like the people that were moving to Canada if Trump got elected. They never moved either.
Oh, so you are just a troll? Imagine if what she said came from a white man and was said about black women. Would that be racist? Why am I even asking someone of your limited reasoning capabilities?
No thanks.
Is the 20 dollars coming from my pocket? Nope
Then yeah I am not giving them any of *My money
I have also no issues with the game apart from minor inconveniences. Infact almost all the stuff I wanted is in the game like not having a strength based pole arm in MoP or strict mogs stictions for legion artifacts, are no longer issues.
All the real salt is coming from the meta slaves, who will always have complain for every expansion feature, balance notes e.t.c. There is not one expansion or balance pass these samples have not complained off
In regards of the token . You need to talk to the ppl buying the token for 20$ and tell them to stop buying it …good luck with that
WoW tokens are the best thing to ever happen to WoW!
