Marriage feedback [inofficial Poll]

[Gugnir]

Personally, I would get married for the benefits of it. I don't care about any religious contentions attached to it. If you're able to split your in game assets with your partner, I want to share my fortune, housing and life with him officially just like everbody else that has found their special some one. If you're against it, good for you thats your opinion but ultimately gay or not we pay the same subscribtion fee.

Well I saw nothing on the JP forums about same gender marriage so I made a post. Hoping it gets some kind of response. So at least we have more than just the english speaking forums to go by.

The devs should be focusing on gameplay and designing end-game content. Get your priorities straight. I swear, you idiots ruin everything.

Yeah, trying to bring social activism into games people are paying money for is sort of stupid. I don't really want my money going towards trying to straighten out this topic. Its a game. Let's worry about game-like stuff that will actually make a difference. Content, lag, new jobs, etc. And people that really care about this issue - there's probably better ways to spend your time crying about it one way or another. Leave it out of FFXIV.

It is a social game, social activism is part of it. Anytime you say something to try to curb someone behaviour one way or another is social activism for your viewpoint.

I don't care, and neither should anyone else.
Equal misery for all!

Oh no, it's huginn again, someone please handle this!

Apparently a great many of us do not understand sarcasm or satire or any other form of writing other than literal.
When i say i dont care if you marry a tree, i mean i dont care what gender the tree is. When i say that we have to make sure the players are not homosexual but characters are ok, i figured that this was such high hyperbole that no one would possibly take it seriously.

and when i make a comment and then have to use the phrase "in all seriousness," that means that the previous comment was most likely not the heartfelt truth.

What i actually do mean is that I believe that pushing your own personal agenda on something that does not affect the game in a meaningful manner is ridiculous. Is it really very important for someone's civil rights that they be allowed to marry in a virtual world? Do you have to try to stir up trouble with cultures that you do not understand?

I actually do not care what you do with yourselves, so long as you exercise personal responsibility and take responsibility for the consequences of your actions. Additionally, that last sentence was a generalization, i am not insinuating that there are some kind of dire consequence to homosexuality. I am sick and tired of the exceptionally exclusive GBLT club, no heterosexuals, no hermaphrodites and no asexuals or quirky alones. Take your agenda and go have fun, but stop badgering me.

I ask you this one question: What does my marriage between myself, a man, and my wife, a woman, do to damage your life? Stop telling me that i am to go to hell because i am the minority (the group who doesnt care what your marital status and eligibility is based on gender). I also have some news for you, even california voted to forbid gay marriage, you are indeed in the minority, they call it "the vocal minority."

If you truly don't care as you say, then you are not among the people I was referring to when I said they can go to hell. So no reason take offense or try to build an argument around my comment.

Also, the fact you would even state the LGBT community is somehow exclusionary betrays the reality that you've never had any kind of real contact on interaction with us. For starters, go look up PFLAG.

Anyone is more than welcome as long as they aren't trying to deny us rights, lambaste us with hateful and/or faith-based rhetoric, or harm us in any way. If that is what you want to do then, yes, you aren't invited to the party. Nobody likes a party-pooper.

a.) I'm down for equality

b.) My fiance is considering playing a male miqo'te, so if my main is still a male in ARR I would still like to get married to her main.

Thanks for making this thread! I think it's important that SE be able to receive feedback from its players about this. It'd be such a stupid, ugly pointless thing to disallow given especially that many people aren't even playing characters of the same gender as themselves.

I have to hear this everyday in Real life Don't bring this crap in my digital life

Seriously if im paying for this I don't want to hear about it, see anything about it

This is a game and lets keep it that way

Haven't you guys heard? This topic has been discussed before so there are no new opinions, according to the reps at least.

With all due respect reps, that's messed up. Topics that have been discussed to death 100 times already are free to stay open but the same sex marriage one gets closed?
