I cant believe this thread is still going >.>

It's been quite the entertaining read, R'mah. For that, my thanks, even if it wasn't intended!
Best of luck with your event! And if you either need some sexy Roegadyn beefcake, hit me up.Â Laugh

I think from all this maybe there is something about thread subject marking.

Not saying they apply to this thread but somthing might.

Why not, it costs nothing and it benefits all to be clear on a thread that may have sensitive content.

So simple tags make things unambiguous.

Well, okay...but there's no sensitive content in this thread.

Yeah there's like no sensitive content in here aside from what was being discussed because someone made the wrong assumption.

A guy goes to the store and buys a bunch of bananas, cucumbers, and a pack of condoms.

Where did YOUR mind go? =p it's easy to misconstrue things and expect the worst, but uh.. that's not what's going on here.

If you need threads with this kind of themes labeled, you may want to ask Square Enix to label quests and zones where NPCs talk, because exactly the same themes are included in the text of the game.

Please, do get a grip Big Grin

WoD roleplaying communities tag shit.Â That argument doesn't hold any water.

So since someone else does it, then we must as well?

I'm afraid your "argument" (airquotes mandatory, as you don't really have one) is the one that doesn't hold any water, my good sir. Big Grin

They do? Â I admit that it's been a while since I've LARP'd or TT'd VtM or it's associated games (though I certainly miss WtA and MtA), but I don't recall anyone tagging shit. Â The setting itself is incredibly dark and violent and, quite frankly, vile, if you read the source material. Â What communities are you talking about anyway?

What I said isn't that hard to understand.Â Much the same as adding emoticons to your post doesn't make your response any less passive aggressive or annoying.

I'll spell it out for you.

Your argument is that because there's sexual themes in XIV, there's no call for us, as a community, to tag posts that contain graphic sexual or violent content that might upset someone.

I'm telling you that there's plenty of other settings out there that dive much deeper into these themes, yet the people who play in them have the good grace to tag their stuff so they don't upset anyone.Â It's a very common thing these days.Â People usually call them trigger warnings.Â Being considerate of others isn't hard.

Forum roleplays are what I'm referring to.Â There's other examples, such as fanfiction archives and the like.

Oh I didn't say it was hard to understand. As a matter of fact I understood it perfectly the first time. I said (not in so many words) that it's silly and an entirely invalid argument.Â

"others do it so we must do it as well" isn't an argument. It's simple as that.Â

No one here or anywhere else on the forum (to my knowledge) has gone anywhere beyond what we see and read every day from NPCs in the game. There's no need to pander to oversensitiveness from people that seem to have no problem with exactly the same things in the game

That isn't what Fenrir is saying.
