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

*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.



Haahahahahaha!

Can you link me that paper? o:

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.))

If we buy dolls, and a person thinks the doll is a representation of themselves, but then someone touches that persons doll inappropriately, its weird, but its not directed at that person.
If they create a statue of themselves, with the intent of it being as close to them as possible, and place it on their lawn. Its also weird to see someone stranger gropping the statue, but the statue is still not the actual person its based off of.

I understand the person in the skirt is looking at the situation as "This stranger is acting in a bad manner towards me", but if its in an MMO where you can player kill someone, we shouldnt consider the player killer the same kind of "messed up" personality as a murderer. (not saying the act is the same, but the comparison of personalities between the murderer, and PKer.)

Just as people consent to playing a game with PKing, but yet still avoid it, and dont want it.
Some people consent to games with adjustable cameras, wearing micro miniskirts, and yet want to avoid ppl who look up them.

I can understand that people find it creepy, because its how they think, and that feeling doesnt just go away. But for the sake of not opening up cans of worms that shouldnt be opened up, lets not make it out to be anything more than it really is.
We can hold sympathy for those bothered by it, but that's where the topic should end. Going any further will have similar effects as those who claim we need to remove freedom of speech, because it will not only harm the "enemy" but it will always come back to bite you in the butt as well. (Im still referring to the act of "upskirting a video game character seen as something "morally wrong/incorrect". Its something unlikable. Just as I dont like it when people yell, its not a morally incorrect/wrong thing to do. Both are considered impolite as well.)

Come to Midgard and I will hug you.
















.................. And then I will pet you

Last lala I petted immediately unsheathed his sword an launched circle of scorn in front of me, it was traumatic.

Not gonna pet anyone anymore.

手ゃts買う背いt和sアぁぁ。 OH WAIT.... that:s cause it was a Lala. She was replying to me. I:m a miqo. And I:ll feel bad pulling out my weapons on someone who patted me.... tho I still will ask why.

[xxvaynxx]

Like how everybody always thinks it's guys that do this.
While I think there is a higher chance it's a dude, girls can be just as creepy doing this crap.
But to the topic. It use to bother me but I stopped caring since mods are a thing. Almost every popular outfit is lewded in some way, people can even make you naked if they're that thirsty.

[Fawkes]

I need to wear more skirts, apparently.

[Granyala]

I must be doing something wrong too then. Cause I don't get ERP like tells. Again mostly all people do is pat me on the head D: Like not even the hug emote... freaking pats. PATS D:!!!!

/pet :3

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

*chuckles*
Guess there's no way around that. Must be an embarrassing sight though.

Hmm I wonder what race is hotter to most people? I hear alot of people make miqo memes but like I said.. I don't get much attention. If any it's freaking /pat. I'mma start asking what race is the hottiest from 1 to 10 to people. The results might be eye opening.

I will hopefully come to you and give you tons of hugs. I might try a drive-by hug first, those are the best kinds of hugs. I remember back when I was a lala, three people ran up to me and all 3 hugged me at the same time before darting off.

I would like to re-enforce the notion of hugs: I really do like giving these.

[Alaray]

In a game I don't really care, the character isn't me and I don't have a physical attachment to it. I find it a little weird, but that's the extent of it.

IRL I'll jam a heel into a foot.

[Fredco191]

Yes. I do think it’s creepy.
