Change/Remove Lalafell "Lifter"...

[CobaltH]

It is a reasonable assumption that when someone enters a bar, they might want to drink. What do you expect people to expect?

The issue is not that someone entering a bar may want a drink, but that people like you have an inability to mentally grasp that a gnome shaped like a triangle looks nothing akin to a child. This would be ultimately fine, as on it's own that hurts nobody, but people with media illiteracy like yourself choose to persecute people who play Lalafell based on your own impairments. If the end result of this was even people saying "I'd rather not be around Lalafells." Then we could live with that. Unfortunately instead, we get labelled with one of the worst things you could call a person, and treated like perverts, whether we RP or not, simply because we choose to play as a video game gnome. I'm certain at this point that you are just trolling and being willfully ignorant, but I think its better to argue in good faith.

Is this intended or unintended comedy? I can't tell.

People have Died because of the lengths of harassment people commit to on attacking the lalafell playerbase,

...Yer joking, right?


Oh no, your catgirl was called a catgirl. Please, get back to me when you've been Stalked IRL and tracked via IP, had your phone and email harassed Hourly, and be coerced into Race changing by threats of Violence, Arson, Robbery, or just straight up Death threats, just for being a Miqote.

I am so glad I came back to this thread, my sides are in orbit.

They targeted lalafells.

Lalafells.

Imagine, if you would, someone being dumbfounded that their lalafell isn't being allowed into a bar venue. Not even one of a billion brothels, but a bar. Everyone there is going to end up with the mental picture of the little guy taking a swig. There are people out there who have chosen to play a toddler-adjacent character, and wanted to get their sippy on because they don't see the issue. There are also people out there that pick the toddler-adjacent character to go to the same bar with hopes of ERPing. Might even be with another toddler-adjacent character. How do you tell in advance which is which?

To be fair, no one should ever be excluded from any venue because of their race. I was asked to leave a venue once because it had courtesans and they were uncomfortable having a Lala around. I flat out told them "No thanks. I think I'll stay around. " They were a bit confused, but didn't harass me. I expected I might get reported and messaged by a GM, but nope, nothing.

Unless you have someone actually making a scene, you have no business telling certain players or races that they can't be around.

Of course they can exclude you from their venue because of their rules. If you don't like it leave and go somewhere else

Good contender for the best useless drama of the year.

This is pure gold.

Sorry, I really don't understand how this chair itself is supposed to be infantilizing. Honestly.
A baby Chair looks a fair bit different, with them not only having a bigger back to lean up against in, but also being designed to quite literally contain a child in a way that doesn't let them fall out of said chair.

This genuinely looks to me like someone in Eorzea/the wider World of the Game noticed that Lalafells need chairs etc that are taller to be able to sit at tables made with larger races in mind. Even if you rename it from Lalafell Lifter to something like "Lifter Chair" or whatever doesn't do anything to change that. The Design of it is just cutesy to me, kinda like how Lalafell are supposed to be cutesy.

Of course there's also technical limitations to consider. Someone already said it earlier but I doubt with the current Spaghetti Code of the Game it's possible to specifically design furniture just for a specific race, so this chair does fill a certain niche in that regard and I wish it actually was even taller to actually lift anyone sitting on it higher up.
