    No, it's not. I've spoken to some of the abused player (one from my fc), and they all said that they were ashamed by what had happend to them. Does not sound funny to me.
    I don't think that it's part of "enjoying the game" when you get slapped around by a "funny" player.
    Log off. You and whoever was offended by pixels, log off. Take your modem, laptop, desktop, cell phone, everything and just burn it.

    Ashamed of... what? /slap? Seriously? Are you sure this isn't a joke? Or then you're leaving something serious out of the story.

    As a person responsible for raising 2 young ladies, I share in your concerns about the extreme level of misogny that exists in many online communities. However...

    No, it's not. I've spoken to some of the abused player (one from my fc), and they all said that they were ashamed by what had happend to them. Does not sound funny to me.

    First, this is pure heresy; do you know any of these individuals personally? Can you confirm the claims of abuse? Because it's not like people will lie about something in an online, anonymous community. Seriously, if these girls are telling the truth, the only appropriate response is to grow a thicker skin. The world in general is not a nice place. I'm definitely teaching my girls how to defend themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally, because if they don't stand up for themselves, why the hell should anyone else?

    Why are you even playing this game then? You've be smacked, stabbed, pushed, grabbed, burned, ice'd, lightnin'd, water'd
    by monsters and humans ...But God forbid if someone slaps you.
    This is why Dev's never take us seriously with topic like these.

    If you're really serious, uninstall this game and never return...never play any game ever.

    I have a great deal of feminist sympathy but this particular stance is flawed in many ways:

    1: The emote itself is entirely gender unbiased, both genders have equal access and there is no advantage to being male (there's no power difference unlike real life where men are typically physically stronger)
    2: You have no way of knowing which gender uses it more often as a) you have only anecdotal evidence as to which characters use it most and b) you do not know the gender of the player, only the character.
    3: Players have the ability to the message appearing (blist)

    most importantly:

    4: Removing the emote would not stop the abuse as long as custom emotes still exist. Your *fix* would fix nothing at all.

    I would have more sympathy with the notion if it was just based on "violence should not be encouraged" but this is a game where you stab, slash, pummel or burn other people, even other players at every turn.

    There are better battlegrounds than this.

    Soooo the pvp is what? Incitement to war and massive murder?

    Please learn to distinguish the context.

    If you really did it, then fight real problem. This kind of post undermine the credibility of a good cause.
