I don't think that anyone is asking for it, however as a woman I'm well aware that those to walk alone at night in mini skirts are more likely to be targets than those that dress normal in pure daylight. If you're a dude you wouldn't walk around at night alone in fear of getting murdered or robbed. Somehow some things just make sense as self preservation do they not?

Read back what you just said slowly. Instead of making the place safe for women to dress as they want you're saying it's better they didn't look a certain way because it makes them targets. It's okay then, because they deserved it... Now if they'd been dressed "normally" (as you put it) then their rape would be far more shocking. READ WHAT YOU JUST IMPLIED. I am genuinely mortified.

It's doesn't help that this thread started with a lie. As has been pointed out you can not see your opponents chat in pvp. The op was either trolling or wanted to start a discussion here but got caught in a lie. Making up false stories to push an agenda isn't the way to go about it.

OP post is not what prompted my reaction at all. My reaction was prompted by a few comments thereafter that left me totally baffled..all I can do is try to take those comments as coming from young people, because if they come from adults with family...I am scared for the future of this world, be it virtual or, even more preoccupying the real world. The message carried by OP is very sensible, maybe the mean used is not right but that doesnt invalidate all what he said.

Psychological warfare is part of every PvP, going so far back as to chess. While "go kill yourself" is more of a modern thing, you should never let the equivalent of a 13 year old doing some vintage Xbox Live Halo trash talking get in your head like that regardless of your mental health. I don't condone what he said, but at the same time, he played you exactly like he wanted.

I suppose you consider your post as a somewhat mature post ? right ? I suggest you listen to your own comment, you know the part that speaks of *stay away from internet* might be a good thing for the community as a whole

I'm not going to argue whether it was mature or not, but it sure reads logically. The internet offers some dangerous levels of stress, from toxic people, for those who cannot handle it. Also, I'm not the least bit surprised that users, yourself included, found my reply offensive. You immediately insinuate the worst, because I didn't show my undying support, for OP's imagined slights, with a bleeding heart. What I found even less surprising is you spoke of maturity and then attempted to attack me with my own post. Please, forgive me if I've offended your delicate state of mind; I mean no harm.

ON top of that, the post is fairly hypocritical which goes on to talk about how one should be sensitive to the possibility of mental health issues of other players, but then doesn't acknowledge that the other player (which I guess is made up) could also have a mental health issue which results in them speaking that way.

I agree with you. If a 13y/o speech and or attitude get to you then you are not capable to be in the internet. It is like allowing a child of age 2-3 cross the street on hi/her own. This person who has mental health problems have a guarding with him/her while playing the game.

Or it is like children allowing to marry a man or a woman to find the role model of a father or mother....sure you would sleep and reproduce and do your marital obligations with ur parents (this is in regard to another thread, the OP said happy Father's day be it biological, adoptive, as a role model or by marriages....)

Lol, no they don't.

No, you can, just not without cheats. That's the funniest part here, OP incriminating himself in a very obvious way on SE's own forum.
