    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?

    Using the chat system as a comparison to block jumping is an incredibly poor argument. The need to edit chat and block certain characters is to evade something more damaging than a jump animation.

    Also, "freedom in everything else", what exactly? You have the freedom to ignore people's speech. Yes, but what else? Look, I'm not arguing this to push my own agenda. I'm just pointing out common sense. You cannot block flashy animations that were created. You cannot block really any animations other than physics, but that is to relieve system performance.
