Is there too much soy in this game's community

[Seraphor]

I do think this is a good topic even if it’s meant to rile people up. I find I don’t type much of anything any more because of people’s reactions.

I got kicked out of an alliance raid once after being berated for simply saying “please dodge” to a dragoon who got hit by literally every mechanic. Reamed out for telling a tank how to play when I said “cooldowns please. Need mitigation”.

This isn’t about not being able to be racist, homophonic or sexist like the one poster suggest. That’s a common claim meant to dismiss used by the exact community OP is referring to.

This community has become far too sensitive. Can’t hurt anyone’s feelings. Criticize anything. Burst their tiny bubbles.

But I tell ya, it’s ok when they do it. Because they are on the righteous side of protecting fragile feelings

Please do tell us exactly what the TC meant and how that actually conforms to what you mean now.

From what I can see, the TC specifically mentioned insulting and mocking people, specifically in making jokes, not criticising their skill or performance.

Several people have now turned this topic towards receiving backlash from giving constructive criticism, which might be what you want to talk about, but it's not what the TC was talking about. They're two entirely different things, with different arguments. So don't conflate them with comments like: "This isn’t about not being able to be racist, homophonic or sexist like the one poster suggest. That’s a common claim meant to dismiss used by the exact community OP is referring to." when that's exactly what it is about, in an attempt to discredit the counterargument for something completely unrelated.

So, because Skiros didn't specifically say that people can't take constructive criticism, other people aren't allowed to make mention of it? I wasn't aware conversations weren't allowed to grow and evolve. I also wasn't aware you couldn't use a troll thread to address actual issues. /shrug

You can talk about whatever you like, just don't conflate two separate things and try to use an argument form one against the other.

I disagree with bigotry.
I agree with constructive criticism.
It was implied that because I disagree with bigotry, I'm one of the players who can't handle constructive criticism. This is incorrect.
Get it?
