DEV REQUEST:DUEL/SPAR system

[Teryaani]

He's just telling it how it is. That "carebear" crap is a very real excuse that people try to use to not have dueling implemented.

And dropping to name calling doesn't help make your case. If SE implemented it, with controls from the start to prevent the spam requests, the only thing you'd have to do is ask dissenters "How does this affect you? Not at all? Then why are you arguing?"

Carebear is name calling? Last time I checked carebears was a cartoon. A person posting before you even says hes proud to be a carebear. Anyhow, he doesn't need to make a case. Dueling seems to be supported quite well in this thread.

Please don't be insulted that I called you out. This is what happened here: You viewed someone using the word carebear as an insult, and then someone owned up to being a carebear and that he was proud of it which contradicts your argument. I called you out on it and now you are sitting here grasping for straws to counter that. Sorry man, if you feel insulted by me calling you out on a forum I think its time you take a step back and take a deep breath. It's just a video game forum.

Besides, I know you won't explain the supposed insult behind the word carebear because you know there is none. It is incredibly subjective that you view the word carebear as an insult and there's not much you can do to prove to myself and others that it is.

Sorry man, but whatever you say doesn't change anything. Please don't feel insulted that I called out on an event that contradicted your logic. I'm not used to carebear being seen as an insult and I still don't believe it, nor will you explain it.

You didn't contradict anything and I don't feel insulted. I'm feeling a bit of pity right now, but not insulted. You just chose to ignore the things I've said. I suppose that's easier than answering them.

This sentence was uttered before you said being called a carebear was an insult.

Damn straight we're carebears, and proud of it. In case you haven't noticed, FFXIV is a carebear game. While I haven't taken a poll, I think most of us like it that way.

Apparently, this person doesn't think so, nor does he give any hint of it being utilized as an insult. This is what contradicts your argument.

I'm choosing to ignore the petty insults and attempts to get under my skin in order to respond in the most neutral way possible. But this should not be seen as demeaning or passive aggressive in any way.

I'm sorry but urban dictionary is not a credible source, and nor are you. I'm unaware that the word carebear is used as an insult and I still refuse to believe so.
