new reason to kick people from static raids

[Reilyn]

Not yet. But I can only assume he's either faking it or covering up what he actually did/said.

Well we obviously don't have the full story. He very likely got himself kicked by his own actions.

itt: people comparing some random white dude getting kicked from a static in a video game to historical and systemic oppression in real life

I only commented on the fact the precedent has been set in American society for something like this to happen, so we can't outright dismiss him on his word either.

Short version: either one of these things could have happened. In an ideal world, only one of those things would be a possibility.

So, by that logic, if I state I'm a billionaire, I will instantly become one? If so...

*Closes eyes*
I'm a billionaire!

*Opens eyes and checks bank account*
...Didn't work.

Yep, and I'm a French model!



*Disclaimer: Not actually a picture of me.

To OP : your thread made me laugh very hard. It was great.

But, I must tell you tho, SE won't do à thing for you. They allow "anti-baguettes" pf in my Server and no french groups craps. And when reported, they'll tell you : " people have the right to play only among themselves " so, if indeed you got kicked by à group of people who judge other by their gender and colorskin (B*z*f*e*) like then, you're fine as you are (away from them) but I seriously think it's a hilarious troll and à good one

People get kicked in this game for Behavior. Your words or actions caused the majority of the group to decide they didn't want you around anymore. I'm certain you will find another group.

I think you're omitting some context here. Was it a club for LGBT people or for non-white people? Otherwise I can't see this happening. The vast majority of players are straight, white and male considering that around EU and NA combined make up 2/3 of the playerbase.

Huh, I'd seriously question that assumption. Not everyone in EU and NA is straight, white and male last time I checked, so if you're saying 1/3 of the playerbase is not in that group before dividing up those huge regions, I'm pretty sure there's not going to be any overwhelming majority of straight white dudes in these parts. The FF series is clearly very popular with women, and non-white, non-straight people are not that rare here.

I've been assumed to be a straight, white male quite often in games just because that demographic tends to assume they're always the majority. But they're probably not overwhelmingly so at all.

guy makes a really vague statement about something that happened to him and it turns into this really big discussion wow

Please stop generalizing. It's not right.
