This whole topic makes me think of one thing. Monty Python.


"Help, Help, I'm being repressed" (in a video game)

Sounds kinda stupid doesn't it? That's because it is. I hope SE changes it so anybody can marry but not because of any of the reason given in this thread.

I feel this topic came from a gay community that is on the hot topic of gay marriage in real life. They feel repressed in real life so when they are "escaping" real life by playing an MMO and they see that an issue that is a hot topic for them in real life matches in an MMO they take to arms on that topic too.

Again I hope SE lets anybody marry anybody. I hope that the marriage in the game is just a silly ceremony and thats it. No extra benefits.

This is why it's stupid for SE to stop it because its a FAKE marriage in a video game. It means absolutely nothing. The fact that somebody is trying to restrict an act that means nothing in a video game is stupid. Then again I think that the fact that people are fighting for something soooooo trivial is funny. If people in this thread took the same activism to write your congress, hold rallies, and be more active in the real life community then maybe you'd change things instead of complaining about a video game.

If you changed society views on marriage first, then video games would follow suit. So please stop complaining about a video game that will change nothing and will mean nothing if you do marry in it.

Lastly, please bring on the people that will feel hurt by this post. I won't be reading this topic anymore because the amount of butt-hurt (pun intended) people about something so pointless is ridiculous. If this was a forum on something that mattered like a vote, a rally, a real life matter, then and only then would it mean something.

So any of you that think that if you change something in this game you'll feel better or get to "pretend marry". Go to a park, dress up, same some silly words, and kiss because that would be more real than what you're fighting for here.
