  1. Saying that someone killed themselves due to a transphobic reaction is not the same thing as being transphobic, or encouraging it. If someone in your neighborhood killed themselves after having such an experience, and then the local news reported on the incident, would you be calling for them to stop reporting on the story? Not talking about it won't unmake it happen. Someone may read that memorial and be offended, but the same could be said for any of the other memorials. People can take offense at whatever they like. Being offended by something does not imply that it should be censored. If it did, there would be only nothing because everything offends someone.
  2. The combat log shows a simplified version of the combat results. The crush damage you are seeing is a total of all of the damage types done, and listed as "crush" damage because among the damage types done, crush damage was the type with the largest amount. If you mouse-over that line in the combat log, a pop-up will display the detailed version of that combat event. For example, the combat log may say "16 crush damage", and the pop-up may detail "13.1 crush damage + 3.3 burn damage". -HOWEVER- I'm not convinced that the damage is being calculated correctly, at least in the case of Lightning Strikes. (Turning Wheel damage seems correct, but I'm not certain.) The damage from Lightning Strikes is supposed to be "+10% damage as shock damage", but it seems to be more like 5%. For example, if I hit for 24 damage then the combat detail is showing something like "22.9 crush damage + 1.1 shock damage". 10% of 22.9 should be more like 2.2 or 2.3 shock damage, I would think. Smaller hits (say, for 13 damage) don't show any shock damage at all. In a case like that I'd be expecting to do around a point of shock damage if there were +10% shock damage. So either I'm missing some aspect of how the game calculates the +10%, or there's a bug that's causing the damage to be calculated incorrectly, or Lighting Strikes is only supposed to do +5% damage as shock damage and the description is wrong.
