Petition to support polygamous marriage (when the system is released).

And this further reinforce that SE should just drop the whole marriage/eternal bonding system. Because players will never be happy.

Exactly. I tried: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...arriage-system

Unfortunately people feel the need to bring all the crap of real life into a game. Just drop the marriage system. Be LGBT, be poly, we don't have to know. We want to know if you can dodge landslide. No wonder there are misanthropists..

SE hasn't actually brought in "marriage"...it's "life bonding", which was a clever answer to the whole "equal rights" thing. Unfortunately we now have the OP raising another "alternative" albeit rare and mostly illegal and wanting "equal rights". Where did the rp go in mmorpg?

The only lore support for polygamy in XIV is the clanned miqo'te, the U clan in Forgotten Springs being the only obvious example. But, really, they aren't married so much as 'mated' like a pride of lions (though that makes one wonder just how awkward the line of succession is given that the nuhn's sons are in line to inherit the clan...). Thus it only makes sense for miqo'te. Applying this to the real world, only certain countries have polygamy. Japan is not such a country and only Mormons legally follow the practice in the US. No reason to have it in XIV.

Hi! o/

Sorry to interrupt your discussion, but I want to point out that this is incorrect information.

ITT : Attention wh*res and the players who love them.

[LalaRu]

Isn't it possible for us to love and be friends with more than one

Yes it is possible and it is already in game:it is called "Free Company"

[Seiryuukishi]

Do you not believe in the power of love, brah? This shit's for real.

Sadly no. I do not. It has never given me anything but grief.

A question I'm sure can never be truly answered.

Objectophilia!

Inanimate objects Yoshi-P. Why does my marriage partner have to have a pulse? Beef jerky will never betray me. Pink subligar won't abandon me and lay claim to half of everything I own. You get to marry a cat; why can't I marry Petrified Lumber? My mailbox is there whenever I need it; everyone else only logs in once a week for raids. How does that keep me warm in the middle of the night?

If your log can give its consent then why the hell not!?

On topic; this thread makes me feel like the OP is a little bitter about SSM. It's like they guy in Florida that wanted to be able to marry his computer if gays could get married.

I'm all for equality but where was this thread when the marriage system was first announced? People wanted SSM in FFXI and they asked for it as soon as it was announced for FFXIV.

Do you actually care about this topic or are you just salty about SSM?
