Why do we have to dwell on meaningless issues?

[Ingolf]

I wholeheartedly disagree. His concerns are that people try and focus on the game itself and less on the little nitpick details. He has made many statements that coincides with XIV, and speaks of a community where this really shouldn't be that big of a deal. You trying to belittle his opinion is more of something that doesn't have a place.

The point he was getting across was that all these things are not that important when it comes to the game, and honestly, it isn't. Do you think male characters are pissed off that when they wear a subligar it doesn't represent their accurate size of their penis? Seriously, the sexism and marriage agenda is just poppycock.

Subjective.

get over it, op.

The thing is... What you define as nitpicking isn't necessarily what everyone defines as nitpicking.

I dislike that there's no turning animations in ARR. If this isn't important to someone they will see it as nitpicking. I see it as a real issue worth debate.

Well, like I said, I have no problem with debate. I also have no problem with whatever opinions you have on ingame issues. I never said otherwise. If that's what you read, you're reading into it too much. So, now that we've established that we have no disagreements there, I just want to ask: why did you make assumptions and nitpick at my posts? The minor issues I was talking about are exactly this kind of thing. I basically was suggesting we should all stop picking at each others words, and immediately you come along and pick at mine, jumping to conclusions. Is it that hard to let me have my opinion?

This is what goes on here on a daily basis. Every time I post I know I'm going to have to chase it up with 3 or 4 more posts of elaboration because somebody minced my words. You don't have to make people feel so uncomfortable in posting, you know.

See, that's just cause you're doing it wrong.

One would argue that the refusal to add same sex marriage into a video game is a reflection of real life. People are against it for whatever "good" reason they can come up with...This is/can be viewed an extension of someone forcing their beliefs on people through a digital medium.

So...it actually does matter...believe it or not.

You call it nitpicking, I call it debating.

You can call all attempts at debate 'nitpicking' it depends on how important the issue is to you. If you can't handle people replying with a difference of opinion then a forum isn't the place for you.

Sounds about right, yes.

What are we debating, exactly? Because I thought you just made two separate and incorrect assumptions about what I was saying. The only message I intended to get across was that I think we should stop mincing each others' words and harassing each other over inane crap. I don't recall actually having a difference of opinion with you.
