No I didnt. Thats the third time you have tried to make that erroneous assumption now and the third time I have denied it.

You obviously have no wish to have an adult conversation about this, and all you seem to do is try to insult anyone who disagrees with you.

I have asked you directly about what you think of the thread, the OP and what is being discussed in order to put it into the context of what Im explaining, and this, according to you is "trolling".

I cant possibly begin to imagine what you qualify as as actual discussion given that basis, and so I can only conclude this derailment on your part is the purpose of this discussion.

You say you've denied it, yet I haven't seen you give a single bit of reasoning for it. You consistently pick out a single sentence of my argument and use that as if it was all I said and argue against it. You asked for my opinion in an obviously baiting manner and in a way that wasn't relevant to anything I said. I could care less whether this thread is derailed, but it's obvious having a reasonable discussion with you isn't possible.

You mean the bit where you clearly havent understood what Ive said and get it backwards, then regurgitate it at me as if its what I said?

If I dont point that out, then Im hardly going to make a case based on what you think I said, am I?
Derrick Miles wrote:

No, I asked for it so I could illustrate my point. Its what one does when you discuss things, you try to understand things from others point of view. You must have a persecution complex if you think people asking your opinion is baiting you or attempting to entrap you.
Derrick Miles wrote:

It was relevant to the OP, the thread and the point I made that you disagreed with without understanding it.

You mean you couldnt care less.
And if you are admitting to attempting to derail it, then Ill be reporting you for it.
And dont try to throw what I have said about your inability to discuss things in a sensible manner back at me, as this rant from you has just shown me exactly how well you debate anything; like a ranting 16 year old who isnt allowed the keys to the car, apparently.

Don't think it matters if the thread is derailed, it's already a bit of a train wreak.

Plus the topic is effectively talking about moderation. So I expect it'll get locked sooner or later.

Yeah, I'm a bit surprised that ISD hasn't locked this one already actually. The title does grab one's attention.Lol

This character has openly flown around and participated in new eden for over 85 months with no or minimum protest, objection, or grievance.


Just because nobody reported him for 7 years, doesn't mean that the wasn't offensive.


And what about the other 332 using the word 'anal' in their name?

How long have they been around?


Actually I petitioned myself and CCP told me my name doesn't break the rules.

Of the roughly 500 that showed up, around 15oish were AnAlt. (of some form)

Made me laugh, but at I have no qualms about that. Just everyone else. WAIT! I think everyone needs to have whatever name they have pick to be reverted to a number & race! I can't wait to talk to CALDARI CITIZEN 11482952 about the show and or game last night!

Dorrim did a sweep earlier and left this intact. There was some speculation as to why he might have done that... I don't think I'll be repeating my own suggestion just for the moment, not until I've decided whether I want to remain subbed or not. I'm on the fence at the moment. Been playing some Elite for a couple hours to check out the 1.4 Beta, which I realised I hadn't done yet.

Hi!

I don't want to open myself to discrimination.
I suffer from a diagnosed personality disorder (ICD-10 F60.5).
I suspect that with DSM V there are many diagnostic possibilities for me.

But now I am prepared to take a dictionary... and search every single maybe offensive character name... and submit an original, individual ticket.

Because the LAW is the LAW... and when one person can get in trouble for something... then everyone can get in trouble for it.

(Plus I saw a lot of people using "BOOBS" for their character name. Here in my mother's basement I don't have a lot of access to BOOBS... so that must be why the feminists are against me focussing too much on BOOBS! Praise Equality).

So this weekend will be spent petitioning offensive names.

I always strive to be unbiased as can be, so I don't mind one way or the other. What I do mind is the fact this is in essence a blatant attack at a GM decision, something which is quite against the forum rules.
