Change/Remove Lalafell "Lifter"...

[LostUser]

Oh don't you worry, I don't plan on using it and will pretend it doesn't exist for all I care.

But if I see someone using this exact same item as further leverage for more arguments about how "Lalas are just children", then interestingly, that's no longer a me issue, it's an issue that SE is perpetuating by giving ammunition to people who indeed make their own view other people's problems.

And I hope that since you seem to agree that people should handle their personal issues themselves, you will also call those doing that out (because they will emerge).

Or, you know, it would be very hypocritical otherwise.

P.S.: Oh also, while we're at it, how about you start by calling out those complaining about a complaint or those calling others "childish" while using childish retorts. I mean, it's only fair.

People can, and will, utilise anything incorrectly.. it's just a fact of life. That doesn't make it a problem for SE beyond dealing with the very few reports they'll get about it. It will still be a "you problem" for not liking how others use something, or a them problem for using it in a way that is forbidden (abuse, for example). Unless it's a fairly significant proportion of people utilising it for that purpose, then it's not an issue that needs dealing with in any way other than with a handful of bans and warnings.

As for people coming here to complain about a complaint, they have just as much right to complain about the complaint as OP did to complain about the item in the first instance. Obviously, there's no room for bullying/harassment within that scope, and people shouldn't be resorting to that for any reason whatsoever, but the fact remains that you can't have one side expressing their opinion whilst simultaneously telling the other side that they're not allowed to express their opinion.

Personally, I think this entire thread should be deleted and OP should start a new thread asking for a new item that caters to the part of the community that don't want their characters to resemble children in any way beyond stature -- that's not something anybody would have a valid reason to argue against since it isn't taking anything away from anyone. In all honesty, though, they could fix this entire issue by simply allowing full re-colouring of the item so that it optionally appears less child-like. Anybody continuing to cry about it having lalafell in the name needs a healthy dose of reality and quite possibly some professional help.

Edit: I actually slightly misspoke there; The people coming here to complain about OP's complaint have more of a right to complain than OP does, really, since they're trying to avoid having something taken away from them as OP is calling for. Hence my suggestion that a new thread be started asking for something without taking anything away from other players.
