Just gonna say that was a mod and not me and I don't think this was the best decision. x_x Not that this is a topic that shouldn't be discussed, but rather, it shouldn't be opened without calling him out by name and using his quote in particular. I think that's only going to distract from the actual conversation of RL Gender vs IC Gender and make it all still about his statement. Seems like his thread was locked just so the poor guy could become the focus of another, brand new thread solely centered around his words...

*nods*

I was only about to click onto the second page when I realised that it had been closed and split so I can't speak for the intent but I think you're right in that he shouldn't really remain the subject of the matter, even if he is no longer reading it. Having said that I'm sure it simply wasn't anticipated ^^

Most people have expressed confusion or suspicion, which I'm fairly certain implies they're not only open to explanation from the OP but hoping/asking for one. I haven't seen anyone scream at the dude, "You want OOC sex/romance and nothing you can say will prove me otherwise, let's get 'em guys!!"

Personally, I was hoping for an explanation because I would like to give him the benefit of the doubt and believe his initial claim of not pursuing any OOC romance. But they only responses he gave were pretty much "It's what I prefer" and "I SAID PREFERABLY!!" Those replies didn't exactly help me understand where he's coming from any better.

It's subjective I think. From an outside point of view you can say that nothing particularly accusatory or mean was said but the tone of the messages, particularly so when they occur in bulk, can definitely be taken as harsh. At the end of the day, I personally don't think it's anyone's fault since everyone had the best intentions. Misunderstandings happen.
