Is there too much soy in this game's community

The original post and title feels so familiar that it reminds me of “XIV players are mentally fragile” thread.
And the author of said thread is also the one that necro-ed this thread. They share the same avatar.

coincidence?

the most successful bait lately no one even noticed it was me

Getting offended is not a choice. Different people have different sensitivities.

Sir... this is a role-playing video game... human endocrinology has no possible relevance in the FANTASY world of Eorzea. Please do us and yourself a favor and keep your personal views relative to the hormones of human males out of our magical fantasy world. Thank you.

Offence is taken, not given

Nice cop out of taking responsibility for your actions.
Depression and suicide exist. Words have power.
Be an adult and take responsibility.

Calling it a cop out is a cop out. Just because you have certain “sensitivities” doesn’t mean someone is trying to “trigger” your fragility. You could grow a spine, or some thicker skin, go back to the old adage of words don’t hurt. Or curl up in your ball, trembling because someone said something you didn’t like and you let it break you

Yes yes it's very easy to be tough and edgy behind internet anonymity.
But I guarantee, you have friends or family members with mental health issues, who struggle with these things. Do you tell them to 'grow a spine'? Or maybe you don't realise because you're the type of person they wouldn't confide in. Maybe it's a cousin with an eating disorder, or an uncle with PTSD. Mental health issues are real, therapy exists for a reason, and it's not because "everyone's so fragile nowadays".

Or possibly I, like many have my own issues. But they are no one else’s responsibility. Stop shovelling your crap onto other people and practice personal responsibility. Not up to me or anyone else to tip toe around your personal issues

It takes no effort to not be an asshole to people. Grow up and treat people with a basic level of respect. You don't have the right to intentionally trigger people because you think it's their responsibility to deal with your bullshit.
