Hardly, but was fairly easy. Am at near 600k now and it's pretty comfortable in that I still have to not faceroll champions or elites but don't get bogged down fighting whites.

Or are a bit suspicious of a Wikipedia article about a hot event.

And somewhere someone has classed you as the same that need to be "removed" from society. Price of freedom is hearing dumb stuff now and then, and all.

If only the promancers would.

Wow thats an unnecessarily rude and dismissive comment Drowsy This whole thread is basically about social justice issues. If you really have an issue with someone indirectly responding to you than rather don't comment at all. You do have the rest of forum to discuss what you want. But on this thread we don't have an issue where someone challengers our opinion What's wrong with being rude and dismissive ? You're that way plenty of times - see the Ukraine thread.

Nabbed Democracy 3, here's hoping it's worth the $7

Well then, no need to apologize. Not too sure of where you are getting this impression or what points I've 'intentionally misinterpreted' with respect to feminist arguments, but you can certainly labour under it.

Uhm ok, what preconceptions do I have exactly from that post ? I never said anyone here said the argument, but it's what I've read in certain places and related to Bruce's post that Orugon01 was quoting in his response and to Orugon's post as well.

Wait until they find the hot women thread....

Yep, it's Bruce's alt. And I think Bruce is attracted to being a Social Justice Warrior (god, how I hate this term) because of his idealistic outlook, not out of any kind of man-hating. Yeah I definitley don't hate my own sex. I just feel we, men, need to do much more to address the scourage of abuse both physical and verbal that women are subjected to in many aspects of society I thought the whole point of women emancipating themselves was so that they would do all the stuff that we do. Either women and men are equal or do men have a privilege? Cause it always seem that the privilege conveniently presents itself to make up for some woman's shortcomings. Well, the argument goes that men will listen to men more than they will women so that's why men have to be, heh, "allies" and convince their fellow men to treat women in The Right Way, and so on. At least that's what I've read here and there.

I'm probably over cautious and could have gone T1 sooner. Had 400k dps and 6.5 million toughness and stayed on Master.

Well aside from judging the forum from one thread, insinuating a moderator is planning to or will persecute him and that there is indeed crude commentary in this place, I guess there is something refreshing there. *ahem* I judged it on at least two threads. (Actually more, but two that I actually paid attention to properly.) So there. (& there's definitely bigotry and crude commentary present as well as derogatory terminology being used in some instances. There's certainly also some backlash, but it's not universal. I mean, case in point: you have a thread about whether women [to identify a single frequently-disadvantaged group] in gaming are disrespected and whether steps should be taken to address that, and if so then what those should be.. yet people are attempting to argue that it isn't the case or the status quo is fine and things will just.. magically sort themselves out? Without any actual action or change?) Though if you'd rather weakly snark in my general direction instead of respond to points then that's your prerogative. I'm well-aware I was being argumentative and confrontational. That does tend to be the case when arguments are taking place. (Would you rather I treated you like a delicate flower? Some seem to be vehemently against anything like that.) As for moderators, well.. based on the available evidence at least one of them doesn't seem up to par. My experience has been that, given any authority, a significant proportion of people will tend to either be inept or corrupt. They're ineffectual or they're abusive. Varies in degree, but that does tend to be the case. (I'd welcome being proved wrong on that.) Well, you certainly are posting like the type I classed you as, so that's one good thing this afternoon. Point was your statements are rather unfounded. Not many people here complain about the moderators letting this place fall into a cesspool, people bitch at each other and argue and that's fine as none of it is over the top - as you'd notice if you'd actually read threads. Perhaps your sensibilities are a bit softer, but basing on your back handed hard man posting, that's not the case. Good trolling though, perhaps Gfted1 will take the bait. Heh, these 'safe space' things do run the risk of backfiring, sort of a target rich environment for people who want to abuse them for whatever reason they have. Only permanent solution is to somehow magically make people more civil to one another online.

Apologies. I mistyped. (I'm sure the quoted text in the input box had your names switched about.) That said, I do believe the comment still holds true in as much as Gfted1 is complicit in allowing the more crude commentary to go unchecked. Right. Well glad you registered here to spread the light.

Read a bit better, that was my post not Gfted's and thankfully I am not a moderator. So might want to check the victimized rant a little bit.

Well for forums the solution isn't to have a "safe space" just for them but to just moderate the forum - men will be catching abuse from other men and that needs dealing with so a catch all helps. For games themselves, meh, easy enough to have a moderated servers run by communities or just play with friends. For MMOGs, that's a bit harder as well, they have to leave their "safe space" some time - and that's not helping the community at all get better, for whatever metric one wants to use for that.

Don't bring up the Star Citizen issue as an example of anything. Too much aura of SA/Goons at play in that thread for it to really be on the up and up.

Already have those - RPS & Kotaku.

Talking about this here is like worrying about a building collapsing before it's built.

Meetings are great for me to catch up on sleep during. Last one was funny as about 4 people were playing with knives, though.

Probably just Bruce's alt. So I guess we are cavemen that need educating. When's the Obsidian Forum gender studies course starting ?

You're quite mistaken if you think that's the case, heh. Even a cursory glance of the threads in the C&C forum would disprove that. It's funny how sanctimony and preaching is a common factor with you types.

Are you always this cowardly ?
