Genderlock reminder to SE

[Villz]

Ehhh, pretty bold claim to say a majority even care about it being genderlocked since the most likely scenario is that most people who wanted viera are gonna play Female anyways.

Yeah, I find it funny when people say "see, a majority agree with me. I have a poll! See! See!"

What they don't understand besides the fact that self-select polls are statistically worthless is that yay, they got a whole 5,000 people to vote. In a population of 5,000,000 +. That's a whopping 0.1% of the population.

The important thing to compare it to is how most topics are treated here. When you compare the level of interest in the Viera/Hrothgar threads to any other here, you can see a more significant number of people are involved. A lot of people joined the forums just to show their support for removing the genderlock. Trying to apply statistics to it all is pointless, but it is obvious a good number of people care.

I'm optimistic about it since SE specifically said they were looking for feedback on this. And there are way more voices asking for the genderlocks to be removed than there are supporting them.

That also proves absolutely nothing. People are many times more likely (generally 1000%+) to post on a topic that upsets them than to post on one they support or are indifferent to.
