[Nix]

Questing sounds neat! Gonna give your post a like♪

Ah, one of these.

Not sure I'm gonna get near this one.

We need to be careful not to criticise those who think different to the majority (that SSM is fine).
People have the right to be stupid.


Allowing same sex marriage will have no effect on people not participating in one of those relationships.

Just thought I'd point that out


Suggestion: As marriage is a perfect gil sink.. why not make it something people can benefit from?

Expensive gil fee for the ceremony and invitations, Disciples of Hand can craft the outfits and any other things wanted in the ceremony.

fancy the concept of exposing their children to a setting where something so morally debased is glorified.

your poor kid will learn to be close-minded from start... sad
and he will learn that even in fantasy world you are bound to real world laws... super sad

Yeah I was thinking you would be able to get a couple of friends to help set up the ceremony. Maybe have a weaver craft the dresses with special mats given to you, a goldsmith for the rings, and they can finally put a use to the multi-craft giant cake for culinarians.

Well I play a female character and so does my fiance, guess it would be good for us to be able to take the plunge in game too

Oh please don't start this again. If your post means anything but that you're an uninformed idiot, clarify now so you have no defense of this comment later.

I'm well-informed people lack a great deal, and that it's so easy for the foolish to call others fools. You may call me an "uninformed idiot," but of the post revealing such you may not correctly say so. You may, however, think you can correctly say so. I'll let you have your opinion on the matter. Now leave me to think as I will without insulting me for it.

If the concern is for gay people, fear not. I believe they should be treated respectably as any other. Certain actions, however, do not merit approval. Coldheartedness included.

Some words I say simply don't pass on properly, and I am often judged strangely for it, with here being no exception, but whatever... I'm not a magician of conveyance. I'm just an "uninformed idiot," and what information can be gleaned about such from the selfsame? Consider me an enigma.

TBH, the only real use of threads like these at this point is just for people to quickly see who they see as bigots, or immoral heathens, or who just really don't give two **** and just want ARR already :P

I vote yes for same gender marriage but i wonder if there any issue allowing so in country that FFXIV is allow. Like if they if country could ban FFXIV for having same gender marriage ingame.

This what the exact reason i brought up country issue, so yes i care about if i will be unable to play because of country's restriction and close mindedness, although the chance of it being issue is probably not big, i am still not taking chances.

I came here to play not get married, get off the game if u want to experience marriage.

and is it only me or the one that keep arguing here doesnt even comes from LGBT community? jesus christ, i come from LGBT community and u people need to stop speaking for our sake when it comes to this game forum, if u want to support equality get out there with other people, wanna bet how many ppl actually never get out there to support and only sit behinds their screen? lol

Reading through this thread gave me an idea, let's say we built on this and instead of it being a marriage in the sense that it's a partnership of two people in love, why not make it so it can be a pact between friends who are sworn to protect each other etc.

Square could advertize it as a Pact / Bonding / Pairing etc, but it would be up to the individual adventurer to define what that pact means, whether you are married to each other or whether you are best friends and so on but for everyone the ceremony would be the same - you would just swear a pact of allegiance to each other, or if it's player controlled then do as you will. Having a ring or amulet to show that you are bonded to another, with their name would be pretty neat too!

"Pact" would work brilliantly. That's a fantastic idea at pulling it off without marring SE's reputation and allowing individuals to roleplay it out as they want.
