Oh, Viscere, you must have gotten so excited to see Detoxx double post, twice (cos so angry) in your thread, but alas, no, he has not publicly acknowledged you exist yet.

Keep trying champ, I'm rooting for you.

I guess it's hard for you to understand that some players put principles like basic respect over pixels. That some players might actually care about the social environment in a guild and not just what they can walk away with.

Funny, could've swore this game was called Everquest, not, Everprincplesandvaluesthatreflectmybatshitinsanewo rldview.

The cognitive dissonance required to never understand the reason people don't like you isn't because they don't understand/accept/like you, but that you're constantly trying to push yourself like a cheap, disgusting used car salesman until you hope to God that maybe one day, somebody will like a minute portion of that thing you call a personality, which in reality is more like a 1 sided piece of paper, is so vast and immeasurable, it's comparable to the ever-expanding borders of the universe.

My point was that if DMO was disbanded for racism, then the server staff shouldn't tolerate Vanquish's leadership being okay with racism and LGBT hate. Or being a part of it in some cases. It goes beyond just protecting one's self. It's about protecting others who are minorities.

The culture in Vanquish is not at all like Rustle or AM. I can say you wouldn't stick around in that sort of environment, given the run in with Sedyt. When an old time AM member comes back and is so disgusted they quit in less than a day, there are big time issues.

What about Sedyt? That guy was so far on the spectrum he never did realize me asking to be referred to as "it" was just me fucking with him. Was pretty funny how that played out in my app thread when he kept calling me it.

I can handle playing with guys, though. Not sure you can tbh. Very, very sensitive. Tsk tsk.

I may have some issues with authority I don't respect. I think most people do. So, let's say some trans woman starts telling people what to say or what's not right to say and you have to do this because I'm-a-fucking-fended. No one is going to respect you unless they believe you're a cool person or have some other redeeming quality that keeps them from wanting to fuck with you more.

Haters are powerless if you don't give them power. That blowhard thought he had power and I just refused to give it to him. It drove him fucking insane. There's a lesson in this.

*barks*

I don't know if you learned this during your socialization as a male, but being able to take a joke/hazing/taking straight up shit in stride is a very important part of getting along with men and having them respect you... aka everyone here you'd play with.
