what is a homophobic person anyways? One who doesn't like 2 guys to get married? I don't like it and don't care what you think? I'm not homo centric I'm normal.Quote:

Back to topic this here is pretty funny and OP sorry but let people do what they want and not what you want if they block lgbt with whatever reason its fine its there point not yours. But yea its anyway a bait but still wanted to throw my 2 cents in. Hate it or love it everyone is free todo what they want its the same what most people in the LGBT community want aswell todo freely what they like todo and loving who ever they want without judging... -

Pretty sure most people are only doing this because it's an effective catch-all for the grand bulk of venues/free company spam and not for malicious reasons.
If anything, this shows why a 10 word limit was a mistake because people now have to optimize their filters and unfortunately that leads to unintentional side effects. It's much akin to how some people are also going to filter "gil" "gold" and "music" even knowing it's going to snag normal chat that has nothing to do with RMT or clubs. -

And no, don't even try to pull the "oh but the majority is heterosexual, it's the norm in terms of numbers I'm referring to". It's very clear how you used the common linguistic trope of "I'm not x, I'm normal" in your last statement.Quote:

To filter < LGBTQ+ > does not filters "clubs": a FC or a static could ask to be "LGTBQ+ friendly" and this POLITE request will be filtered.
To filter that acronym is a clear intolerance, because if the problem is "CLUB", you filter "CLUB", not "LGTBQ+". -

As Nightclubs, Static Recruitment, Arabic/Spanish, rp, contest, I have no interest in that so I will filter them as I'll filter lgbt

06-27-2024, 09:11 PMTheCountI genuinely cannot comprehend why that is even needed for an advertisement in the first place. Wouldn't that be assumed? It's like the most superfluous thing to tack on in a static recruitment ad. You people afraid if you don't tack that on there that you'll get a bunch of hatemongers cussing left and right about the LGBT's or something?Quote:

Once again (unfortunately I feel obliged to specify, because now it's very easy to be accused of intolerance): I'm a member of this community, and it's a tag I've really thought about blocking. Is it because I have internalised biphobia? Not at all. "LGBT" just allows me to avoid a wider range of ads that don't suit me.Quote:

Filtering all of that didn't even occur to me. Thanks for the heads-up! Gonna be nice to restore my game back to pre 2016 sanity.
Cheers.
