View Full Version : Since the GM's are banning unwanted content - can we update the Forum Post Rules?

While we are at it, can we get rid of the the video depicting Nizzar in a wheelchair and committing suicide? I am very offended as a member of a major wheelchair advocacy group I feel that this is a form of ableism that disgusts me.

Further, as someone that volunteers at the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, I do not think that the guy in said wheelchair attempting suicide is a laughing matter. We should be cognizant of a person's feelings if they are depressed let alone depressed from their disability.

I'm also offended by various sigs and avatars in this forum. For instance, HippoNipples sig is a form of sexism and chauvinism. As a 4th Wave Feminist, I would like his sig and all other similar raunchy sigs to be removed. If you feel that this is out of bounds, my apologies. If you think that I should just put Hippo on ignore, then I say put whoever posts the Nihilum Recruitment video on ignore.

If the GM's are censoring the group as a whole, I recommend you either update or re-emphasize the rules for posting.

Thank you for all of your hard work and contribution.

Fictional videos are definitely the same thing as actual exploitation of children in third world countries for the sole purpose of chuckles on an emulated server for a 17 yr old video game.

I never said they were the same thing. I'm just saying that if it's the GM's practice to respond to one individual of an entire populations' personal offense to a video (i.e. Heartbrand crying about the recruitment video) and immediately being responsive to his every whim (i.e. banning the video) then it should be extended to other members of the community.

As someone that is a Feminist, Suicide Prevention Volunteer, Disability Advocate, I am requesting that the GM's just update their forum posting policy and perhaps be more impartial to ALL posts in this forum. Not just Heartbrand's. But I guess "Donator Status" has far reaching implications.

You think this is exploitation? How many people you think ACTUALLY give a fuck.

OH THE HUMANITY. A CHALK BOARD THAT SAYS PRAISE THE DUKE SO THEY CAN PRACTICE THEIR ENGLISH AND HAVE A SQUARE MEAL. FEEN IS THE MICHAEL VICK OF RED99.

I see this more like the awesome games done quick for cancer research.

Red99 chortles are FEEDING HUNGRY CHILDREN.

Can we please not derail the thread? Let's focus on an update on a GM Policy to police the Boards.

After all, many people here are well educated, seasone, and well-traveled. I mean, Heartbrand was a wonderful volunteer and advocate of poor children of India ages ago. His thoughts and opinions matter. So does everyone elses.

We are stalwarts of our real life communities. Let let that translate into our EQ and Forumquesting venues. Bring equal opportunity and a free discrimination zone to the Forums!

My cousin was mentally ill and she passed away at the age of 22. I do not like people using the word "retard" as an insult. Please ban Smedy for the video of Lamort finding himself.

The scum lords continue to make a mockery of this server and GMs. Laughing at their threats and continuing to disobey the GMs that donate their time to allow this filth to enjoy Everquest. Members continue to put effort into supporting the exploitation of the poor and enslaved children from 3rd world countries just to defame the innocent players here on Red99. The old toxic players, banded together by guild tag, will do whatever they can do drive away the Everquest population from this server. Showing they have no pride or honor and do not wish players from blue, eqmac, etc. to play on this server and only wish to destroy the work these fine devs have done.

A truly disgusting time and low point, even for this server.

I agree with everything you said (maybe not about the boobs, im anti sexist to the point where a woman is being depicted as inferior, dont really find boobs offensive) but were in the minority, bunch of morons here who would probably +1 a thread announcing that a fragile member of the community commited suicide over bullying that carried on to RL. Youre wasting your time, community is a cesspool.

The video _is_ exploitation of those children.

You can justify it how you want, but if you really wanted to help them in some way, donate without receiving something in return. That includes attention.

Alas, we know that you have no comprehension of the word exploitation though; poster above me said it best.

Youre wasting your time, community is a cesspool.
