This game's toxicity is now off the charts.

[Awha]

i didn't call someone an idiot to try and change their mind, i called them an idiot because they're an idiot. it's not that deep.

reality exists, people who say it doesn't aren't worth my time to give a shit about. it's not a debate about concepts that don't have a readily studied answer to them, it's a debate about whether or not 2+2=fish or 4. in other words: it's stupid.

What I am saying is why calling someone with an opposing view an idiot over a topic that I agree is not overly complex or filled with nuance is factual true, does not do much to alter the fact that depending on who you ask based around their upbringing, location, belief system that they can can up with their own rational that supports their claims a certain group is a hate group even if it is not.

As mentioned if facts and logic were the corner stones of human interactions and discourse we probably would not have many of the problems that we currently have. They are not and that is a reality we must face. In short idiots exist, and because they exist in such a large number unfortunately we have to take their perceptions into consideration.

at least i'm not an internet centrist who regurgitates whatever the perceived most popular position is in any given situation.

That's a little ironic~

Why you have your own problems and hopefully it has been resolved by now Adamantoise has become a den of toxic players. Maybe this has some correlation with major wow streamers playing FF and getting more outside attention causing all sorts of colorful people to play the game. While I rejoice in popularity of the game I am concern of the certain players who do not share the same respect as the rest of us.


Things I have been noticing is the harassment of players and offensive and vulgar names. This has got to stop and the TOS team needs to act fast and hard. The very culture of 14 is at stake here. I don't want it to devolve into WoWs community or worse.

Oh no, colorful people. Whatever will we do?

Wait, nevermind -- we blame the WoW boogieman, as always. Why do I assume that different contexts make for differing answers?... I need to get over this naivety.

If you don't mind, could I ask you to clarify precisely whom you're referring to in this comment? Is this directed at OP, or perhaps one of the other commenters?

No, I don't think I'll say it was directed at a specific person and not a generic statement. You'll have to look for another excuse to report me.

Aside from the fact that this is a troll thread people seem to have bitten hard so I will say this. Listening to people claiming this game is really toxic is like listening to some middle class kid talk about how he grew up in the hood because he once stole a Snickers from the local organic supermarket.

Alt Right = Made up BS term created by the radical left to paint anyone who dares oppose them as an extremist.

Alt-right was coined by Richard Spencer. A neo nazi. Just so you know. Also lol at calling splc left wing while also pointing out that people use buzz words to denounce opinions they dont agree with while unaware of the hypocrisy.

The left didnt ran with it. The right did. That was the point of Spencer renaming the neo nazi movement as alt-right as a way to appeal to oblivious conservatives and anti-sjw ppl. I was knee deep in that seeing my conservative friends all of a sudden adopt nazi talking points. I hope the right are trying to distance themselves from that.

There is a kernal of truth in why you said it. There are hard left ppl that are too dumb to tell the difference. Hell ive seen them call Biden a fascist and thats just lol. But for the most part alt right is not bullshit. Its real and right wingers have a problem.
