    An MMO is for many such people a safer environment for the simple reason that if things get weird, there's an off switch. Getting on Discord voice with complete strangers is a very different experience from doing a DF dungeon.

    So which is it? I'll let ya'll decide among yourselves. Can't you simply "switch off" Discord, and if so, how is it a issue if comms are needed that you don't need to participate in? How about growing a pair and just being like "f this" if you have a bad encounter?

    Not only that, but voice comms aren't usually needed again, it's more to schedule timing for it. So again, IF you have such socially crippling anxiety that you can't even spend time to find a scheduled group for things like BA, DR or BLU Raids, then why does it matter if the content is not active? You clearly don't care for the content and you also don't deserve any items it rewards. You play an MMO that is going to force you into party situations. If your crippling anxiety doesn't allow that, then what is the point about complaining about content since you aren't intent on doing it?

    The contradiction is glaring.

    The people on these forums are hilarious. The moment you tell anyone they have to work alil harder, they tell you how they are part of LGBT, have a mental issue or some sort of physical impairment. It's ridiculous already.

    How about showing a little compassion rather than living in the 1950s?
