You have changed the crouch emote for female miqo'te for a good reason (too sexual), so please, remove the slap emote because of unnecessary violence against female chars.
Thank you

Anita Sarkeesian says hi.

Please keep it in the game

Hey OP..../slap

:P

Yes, i take violence against females very serious.

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.

Pretty much while I hardly post in this forum myself, lol. Sometimes I wonder why I even bother checking out this forum considering the way most conversations and threads go on here.

But then I see something on rare occasions that's generally informative or an actual fun read. Enough reason to keep checking in on this place, even if I don't see any reason to post. :P

Speaking of:

You can use /slap to cure 'Confusion'-debuff as u can use /comfort to cure 'Misery'. Don't take it away. D:

I knew about the latter using /comfort to cure "Misery", but no one ever told me that you can remove "Confuse" by using the /slap emote. I'll have to try that next time.
