    Furthermore, it is their game in the end. You might be paying for it, but you're paying for what they create. If you don't like this then it is your right to stop service and not pay anymore. There is an understanding to create towards what the community wants, but this is only for inspiration. Developers don't exactly get into the business to create exactly what you dictate. These is no creativity in this; no outlet. So, having this creation blocked is not something that's going to be on the table. Also, them giving you the option to block it and all others using it is counter productive. They should be creating things in such a way where people won't want to block it. That is, when it's released. Wanting to block it prematurely is just ignorance.

    So you're going to sit there and tell me that my blacklisting someone or being able to block what someone does on my screen coerces them into a negative situation? That is absolutely asinine. I'm not forcing anyone into anything by wanting them off my screen. It is not forcing anything onto anyone else by being able to eliminate on MY SCREEN what you or someone else I have blacklisted. Hell with your logic, we shouldn't even be able to blacklist anyone nor report others for harassment to begin with!

    I'm not even the one asking the developers for something that requires a lot of programming to begin with.

    It's irrational though. Why would they allow you to block someone partaking in a system of their own creation? Now THAT is asinine.

    The chat system is their own creation, so why should they allow you to block someone partaking in chat just because you don't like how they are using the chat system? No, I am being quite rational because I'm not forcing anyone into anything, YOU are.

    Edit: and something to add, that is a negative situation because allowing you to block these people completely over this addition is perpetuating an option that allows segregation over feelings that are completely irrational. Allowing you to block them justifies these ridiculous feelings.
    No, because I'm not preventing you from enjoying your jumping. I'm not preventing you from doing something out of boredom. You want to whine about segregation? You're the one that wants to force your enjoyment onto me. Allowing one or another to block people allows both sides to enjoy the game. There is no rationality in preventing someone that doesn't enjoy the game as you enjoy it from enjoying the game the way they want to enjoy it, using the same logic as people that want jumping to be put into the game to begin with.

    Something to add from what you said previously, that is a negative situation because allowing you to block these people completely over this addition is perpetuating an option that allows segregation over feelings that are completely irrational. Allowing you to block them justifies these ridiculous feelings.

    This cannot be compared to the chat system because words can be offensive. Therefor, someone who is using speech that offends you can be remedied by the user very quickly by blacklisting them. This isn't the same as jumping, as I just said, you cannot block people completely over your irrational feelings against looking at jump in it's simple form.

    The developers created it for the game, for players to use, the only solution to escape this is to stop paying and to stop playing because you don't believe in paying for a service that offends you. No matter how irrational that may be.

    It is the same thing. Maybe some people really don't care about being offensive, and yeah they can hide it. Hence why there are such things as M+rated linkshells (yes, they do exist for us since we understand that the mass majority of the userbase isn't mature enough to handle offensive language or concepts).

    But at the end of the day, your hypocrisy is appalling to say the least. People want jump in the game so they can enjoy it their way, but when it comes to being able to turn the animation off so that other people can enjoy the game their way, you're not even willing to support it and instead you have to balk against it for some asinine reason.

    I think the difference between you and I is that I am not running this discussion on emotions. You seem entirely too passionate in this discussion and maybe you should sit back and look at this with some common sense.

    It would not make common sense to implement what you are asking. There is no whining coming from this direction in the slightest. It is easy to identify your actions as being irrational by how emotionally driven your suggestions are.

    I think the point is:

    Just given what you said, being able to filter out chat and the like is on the same level as wanting to being able to filter out jumping, because you're blocking out something they created, unless the chat system was designed by someone else?

    People of this community is all for freedom of choice and someone's choice is wanting to block out jump animations, why is that not ok, but freedom in everything else is?

    I think turning off other people jumping and then having them fly around up cliffs and stuff would be more immmersion-breaking than being able to see people jump.

    Fine, keep dodging the issue.

    Once again, using the logic of jumping being implemented for the sake of some people's fun, the ability to be able to turn it off for the sake of other people's fun is only fair. You claim to want freedom of choice, but obviously you can't support it when it goes against what you want.
