VERY unwanted interactions in game

At least they did away with the wolf whistle.

It’s hard for them. They watch media and hang out with people who all say the same thing: they are the victim of persecution and the rest of the world has to change so that they can maintain their victimized identity. If that is all you’ve been taught, it’s not easy pulling away from that mindset.

Assuming this isn’t a troll post, which it might be. But the discussion we are all having is still valid.

No. Be an adult.

I feel like youre right, this is about pride stuff. Anyone else wouldn’t have even mentioned the bit about “id rather not mention my gender” because that’s irrelevant.

My wife gets inappropriate comments all the time. Guys have even whispered her in game. She tells me and I think she wants to see me jealous. Funny thing is, even irl when she is getting checked out or something, I laugh. I’m a very lucky man because I really married up. My wife is very beautiful, and I keep telling her that as long as men are doing this to you then you must realize how truly blessed you are for keeping your looks into your 40’s.

She has long dark hair and brown eyes. She’s half Sicilian and half Irish. So, I got the think headed Italian and the fighting Irish to contend with.

Please, no one out me on giving you any idea her age.

Yeah I think so too, but don’t want to outright assume. I’m gay myself, so none of what I wrote came from judgment or malice. But the ONLY way ALL people on planet earth will find peace is if they heal their traumas. Literally. And it gets harder and harder to do with all the distractions we have going on (by design, since whole and healed people are harder to control.)

It’s gotten to the point now that telling anyone to heal their crap is being taken on an attack to their identity. But how do you tell people that they’re identifying themselves incorrectly? You really can’t. How do you explain the color blue to a blind person? You need the experience to truly understand, and as long as people hide beyond identity politics, they won’t be able to understand who they really are as a human being. All these categories limit personal growth and self awareness.

Its not if its same side and done with /e

You’re right, let’s do that thing Runescape does (did?) on some worlds where you aren’t allowed to use chat except through a menu of preset phrases.

go club penguin route. ALL THE WORDS ARE AN AUTO BAN.
all the cs forum threads would be hilarious.

Use the ignore feature

I don’t think it is right to assume people are like this because of some type of trauma. Somethings just come from a place of fear and/or hatred, nothing has to happen to a person to fall into these. Some people just have to having someone lower than them so they feel better about their life. Understanding yourself means be able to face the nasty parts of yourself and not blame that on “trauma”.

Honestly, if you are getting triggered by something like an emote in a video game, then you might have some issues you need to address. And in order to play a game where there are hundreds of people interacting with each other, you need a thicker skin.

Not trying to belittle how you feel. If this is indeed true, and you aren’t just trolling for the fun of it, then you need to either ignore it, deal with it, or seek gaming entertainment where it’s exclusively for solo players.

We have enough of the suffocating cancel culture around….don’t need it here on Azeroth.

Ask them to give you things, they might fall for it.

Tell me how you think this will solve any kind of issue, when they can just SAY these things in chat either way? I’m sorry some dude was being a creep, but… Get over it?

I can SOMEWHAT understand the rationale behind removing the /spit, considering it was simply toxic and served no other purpose, but I don’t support removing a whole host of emotes just because some people are WAY too sensitive. Just ignore them and move on with your life.

Turn off the emotes.

Fine, but /waggle comes in to fill the gap.

Dance naked on a mailbox for tips.

As is tradition
