SE Censoring Emote ability due to select few is not the answer.

Maybe my game is just special but I can still use /doze and it plays an animation. You're losing nothing.

I'm kind of tired of your type, always thinking that just because something is small and doesn't effect you that it couldn't possibly effect anyone else or be worth a look at.

Really? Get over yourself.

Sure, lets not enjoy our game and alow SE to restrict us from every single little new thing they add, RESTRICTION THIS RESTRICTION THAT. I'm tired of all there restrictions, SE just let us play and enjoy the game without keeping us from content and I'm not talking about the emote, I'm talking about everything.

The funny part? People who make this a big deal are doing exactly the same as she's doing - "Why can't I use this style of /doze anywhere SE? It's a big deal, it's game breaking and quite frankly silly that I'm restricted from an animation."

Don't tell people who find this insignificant to get over themselves when they're not the ones making a big deal about it :\ I mean, look at how angry you got over a non-issue.

1. You need to check your definitions for fact and opinion.

2. Posting in this thread stating that restricting the /doze emote was a bad idea does not exclude me or anyone else from posting in other threads about other issues. I'm a pretty vocal person, and I do speak up when I see something I'm unhappy about (as anyone can tell from my post history).

Back on topic: SE needs to stop smothering their playerbase and just give us their content without arbitrary restrictions. Let us use the darn /doze wherever we want.

Only in a very particular location that the majority of players do not have access to. It's absurd. I've never seen this in emote systems in other MMOs - and for good reason.

Incorrect. I'd still be upset once I noticed it. I did make this thread after all.

And Imapoonu, thank you for not actually providing any counter to either of the two statements I made towards you.

I'd SE would have said nothing and did nothing you all would have never known and would be happy....think about it.

Here's my best guess on how this conversation went at SE HQ...

"A conversation between John Doe and Jane Doe"

"Hey John"
"Hey Jane"
"Did you see the memo about the lay down emote?"
"Ya, pretty silly huh?"
"Ya...let's just scrap it. We have a couple other things to worry about."
"Okay, just scrap it?"
"Yes. Release a pa stating we just don't see the need for developing content that can be used in a provocative way. It's not like they won't do it anyway lol."
"Lol. I'll get on it."

.........2 days later.......

"Holy crap! Did you see that thread in the lodestone?"

:eek::D;):eek::p:confused:

EDIT: And also...

Nope.

Here's another fact:

Animal rights are more important than the rights of match box cars.

Making unrelated, nonsensical statements does not actually constitute a valid argument. "Match box cars" are inanimate objects and do not have rights.

Even if I were posting in this thread to the exclusion of all others (which, as I already pointed out, I am not, nor are the majority, if not all, of the other posters here - this alone negates your entire argument, as it is based off the premise that we are ignoring other issues), your opinion that this issue doesn't matter would still be precisely that: an opinion. As a roleplayer, the emote system is of huge significance to me, as I make use of it regularly to engage immersion during scenes. Being unable to access a simply laying down emote because of a completely arbitrary and nonsense excuse is not something I am going to just passively accept.

Oh, oh! Let me try:

I breath air. Therefore, you are wrong.

I totally won this discussion!

All freedom is important. I wouldn't give much for a world where I was allowed to do anything, but all books I read must praise god every 10th page because religion is important among book writers.

Ha! You lose because you used the word breath (a noun) instead of the word breathe (a verb.)

PS I also breathe air and you've been using more than your fair share.

I don't understand the relation between these two statements. What I do understand is that you need to widen your literature. There's plenty of book writers who don't think religion is important, who think it's silly, who think it's evil and those who think it's important as long as there's no God involved...plenty of writers writting all kinds of stuff!

Ah Hippies :)

Where do i sign up?

I didnt say were losing anything.

I said that the problem that SE wants to remove by limiting this emote isnt going to go away, only by removing all emotes or shutting the game down will they stop sexual emote acting to ever take place ingame.

I am glad Square has no issue with these pulled from the .GIF thread...

But laying on a bed is just TOO much. Glad we have some perspective.

Creating a couple of posts grumbling about an emote censorship isn't putting much energy into something. If only protecting our real life freedoms was so easy and effortless.

Not to mention that in many places fighting for your freedoms involves going to jail. This is considerably easier.

On topic, I'm amazed no mods or devs have chimed in with something, seeing as it's now 14 pages. seems to me like most people here are not happy about the censorship from SE.

I think they hyper-conservative folks in charge of emotes need to have a word with the guys writing NPC scripts. On the one hand you can't have harmless emotes for fear they might be abused and on the other you have Hildebrand exclaiming, "Bugger me with a bloody spear!"

She is belittling someone that is just wording there opinion on something they feel is potentially making the game less enjoyable and for what IMO is a silly reason. I'm not angry but I am tired of seeing people put others down just because it isn't important to her doesn't mean it's not important to the OP.

So it's one emote and the next time it might be a peace of clothing without the /visor or something else small but the thing is Tupsi there is always room for improvement, even on small things. Content is still content, people who put down things just because there small are just holding the game back preventing it from potential content, I don't care about the emote but I do care about people constantly bashing others views in this forum that can potentially improve the game and it's content.

So the guy or girl wants to use the emote anywhere and not just at the one place you'll probably never be able to afford, I honestly agree with him/her, I would rather use the emote anywhere too and white knights who defend everything SE do need to wake up and see the bigger picture.

Do you want to lose content over such a stupid reason, who cares if someone takes a screenshot, there are plenty of screenshots already out there with what emotes we have now what difference would it make, people like that will find a way to do what they do weather or not it's able to be used in or outside of the FC housing. Why should anyone be ridiculed for wanting what should be available to us?

Today I ran my SMN AF quests and this happened.

Please remove Summoner Horns from use in public areas as well, since they can be used for subjective screenshots!






(Psst Not serious, for those who don't get sarcasm.)

And for people who do not understand, the problem is also that they waste time spending more time on content to disable content.

Who here actually wants developers spending between 5 seconds and 5 days extra on disabling content on updates? I sure would like it more if they worked on adding content instead.

Other people have already mentioned it, but I also feel the need to throw in that it's absolutely hilarious that in a game where half the dialogue reads like SE just realized that sex is a thing that exists they want to at the same time restrict us from using emotes in a way that might be deemed "inappropriate".
