Do you think taking up-skirt shots of peoples characters is creepy?

[SturmChurro]

How socially stunted do you have to be to think it's okay to make and use a panty stealing emote? Like, that's not even a sex thing (that is, it's not that he can't understand due to being a male), that's a matter of maturity or rather the astounding lack thereof. That's middle school behavior, seriously, and probably exacerbated by him watching apparently ecchi anime.

That dude probably knew full well it was super weird, and he got called out, so started to backpedal.

What we need is for gender locks on glamours to be removed and put dudes in skirts around Ul'Dah.


You know. As a social experiment.

You could do with some reading comprehension because the individual in question was recounting a story about a FC member. I was using "you" in the general sense, not referring to the person I quoted specifically, something that was made plain in the second sentence even.

I remember having a stern debate with one of my FC mates, because he liked to use an emote that was basically 'steals your panties and runs away with them." He was just a young kid in his teens, and was being playfully cute based off the behaviors he saw on anime. He had no idea as a guy what it meant to be objectified or even be on the receiving end of such behavior. He just thought it was something cute that people did in anime, and thus was acceptable behavior in-game.

I was implying this kid was backpedaling to not look weird, when in actuality I think he knew exactly what he was doing, in my opinion.

You were most definitly referring to him specifically here and here:

How would that quote even be a general statement, maybe NOW I am lacking reading comprehension, because that is a very specific quote.

No way. The most attractive would be Viera, Au Ra, THEN miqo'te. Not even talking about "Hot". Males it would be... hmm.. actually I don't really like how the males look in this game, they all look scuffed. By the way, since female au ra are so small, male au ra are packing small.

I can probably rate males on a "cool" scale. I'd say highlanders in certain full armor, covering their caveman head. Certain Hrothgar. Midlanders in full armor, covering their babyface head. Some elezen males have good designs, but the stupid ear armor ruins any kind of helmet. Roe has really tiny legs and they look like blobs, I don't think those ever look cool. Top 3 for me would be like Hyur, Au Ra - Hrothgar. I probably like more au ra looks than hrothgar though.

Oh, cat boys... I think they almost always look dumb. I don't think they are attractive or cute or cool. Some people have pulled off a look I like, but it's really rare.

My name is Sturm Churro, and on my females in SWTOR those were named Lalalachurro and stuff and I still got whispered. It's probably cause their character looks cute, wearing the carbuncle slippers and stuff.

How do you know I wear the carby shoes???!!? D:

I'm not actually shocked... but I do wanna know how. :O

I apologise then for my misunderstanding and agree that perhaps I need to reevaluate my reading comprehension. I had assumed that you were referring to the user JackHatchet rather than the person in his story.

I looked up your character on lodestone, took some photos.

I apologize as well then, I was inbetween queues. My reply may have come off harsh, didn't really have time to read into it. It popped as I was starting the reply.

I wouldn't say you're too sensitive as much as you're probably blurring the real world and video game world a little too much.

I don't agree. She's asking if you find an in-game behavior is offensive.

It doesn't matter it's involving pixels. It's behavior aimed at another individual's character which is perceived by our brain as an extension of that person. ((Really! It's a fascinating topic.))

That really only applies if you're the type of player that sees their character as a extension of themselves. Not all players do, I know I'm one of them. I personally think people doing the kind of stuff described on the OP are both hilarious and sad.

*nods* I read about the subject in a psychology paper. The subject of how our brain processes MMOs and the characters the player encounters is fascinating.

By the way, since female au ra are so small, male au ra are packing small.

Haahahahahaha!
