As it's Valentione's Day, I ask do we even need in-game marriage; period!

[Fiorana]

I disagree. They absolutely are. Everyone with the opportunity to establish a statement on this matter is in such a position. We all are.

It's ridiculous that there's even debate going on over this, though. It should not even be a question. When implementing a marriage system in-game, the thought of restricting it to only opposite-gender player characters should not even blink into existence.

And why should it not, because you don't want it to? Other people share the opposite opinion of you if you don't recall why all these topics get closed, I'm actually happy to see SE hold out since it shows that they have some other considerations other than money or they would have taken the easy way out already.

It shouldn't because the opposing opinion is hardly a valid opinion in the first place? An opinion of "my type of people deserve to have this system cater specifically to us, because we're of the opinion that people like you don't deserve to use it" is kinda toilet-level garbage. These topics get closed because people with this opinion that only they deserve in-game fluff services for their own sort of people make a huge stink when other types of people might get to play with what's been exclusively their toys in almost every other instance (and the people they want to take the system from, for no real reason, get a little fed up of reading it. At least I do, though I'm just sick of this stupid attitude in every area of life including the games I play). It's just a bunch of conceited, whiny people trying to diminish fun for other paying players because they're more "important" or somehow more "correct" than those other paying customers... not an actual, reasonable, rational position.

Both sides of the argument are (put nicely) off the deep end. And this is why I don't want any involvedment on SE's part aside from making the assets for formal and wedding attire, accessories, items and writing lore behind marriages in the city states. This way both sides get what they want, SE isn't forced to say much on the matter and we can all be happy and organize marriage as we want to.

As I've mentioned, Blizzard pretty much put in wedding attire in WoW, made it wearable by both genders and left players to do whatever with it. The nonsense and arguments seen here haven't popped up in WoW's forums at all. At least, not in the 5+ years I've played that game.
