I mean, if you are intentionally misgendering someone because you feel like it, then you are just being a toxic dick, right? And you should be banned for that .
Just like if I start spewing racist shit, or being an overall asshole, you should get banned.
No one will ban you for "misgendering" someone that you didn't even know preferred a certain pronoun.
In the end, it doesn't hurt you in any way. You are a big boy, you can adapt.
NPC's are the perfect solution for any player-specific changes. Just like you can visit a NPC to freeze your levelling, so could you visit a NPC to inform them you want to change your pronouns.
The beauty of NPC's is that players who don't want to have anything to do with it, don't ever have to meet that NPC.
And keep in mind that the people who don't want to be confronted with pronoun selection, though probably mostly bigots, can also be dysphoric people who themselves want to escape into a game where they can be anything, including an entirely different person than themselves. Just like how roleplayers like choosing an opposite gender, not because they long to be that gender, but to simply enjoy being someone or even something entirely different for a change.
Sweden, our version of slaves were called "trälar". The definition (paraphrasing from memory) was something like unfree servants that could earn their freedom. They could also have become trälar from prisoners of war, debts and so on. They were the possession of the housemaster and wasn't considered members of society.
With that said, we had pretty much nothing of the slavery and atrocious you had in the US. Trälar were a valuable commodity.
Uhhh pretty sure you're the one who has to prove the MAPs are tolerated by the left. There's a long tradition within LGBT advocacy groups of telling them to fuck off, starting with NAMBLA back in the 70s. As a self-professed gay man, you should know this. MAPs are just a new iteration of a very old problem. And it's not whataboutism because I'm not trying to distract from a real problem, I'm saying the actual problem is on your side, it doesn't even exist on mine. Please, show me some statistics to prove me wrong. And the condescending remark was you calling me darling or some other such nonsense that I doubt you'd call a man. It reeks of misogyny and superiority complexes.
Who says I'm here to discuss? What is it with you neckbeards and going into debate mode whenever you're trying to suck each other off over making points that appear logically consistent?
Maybe I just want to go into a thread full of cunts and let them know they're cunts. Maybe you're taking yourself far too seriously. Maybe you're vastly overestimating how much thought I put into my posts.
Maybe it's all of the above. Who knows? Who cares?
There Blizzard goes, just proving what we all already knew. Men are superior to women! 1>2. Body 1 > Body 2. Thanks Blizz! Men in First Place as usual!
Once again you are full of shit. There's a 60% reduction in moderate and severe depression after gender-affirming care, and a 73% decrease in suicidality.

Because unlike you, I would prefer that the hate stopped and there could be a middle ground where everyone can be happy and not just one side being happy at the expense of others? And I feel that's impossible without having a discussion about it?
But as usual, your side is pretty incapable of that and rather stoop down to shit talking.
You don't HAVE to, just like you don't have to be nice to people, or be considerate to people.
But doing those things, is just overall better for everyone, at the cost of very little effort on your part .
Might seem a bit silly in your eyes, but at the end of the day, you can improve the lives of some people with very little cost!
And I think that is worth it ^^.
Lmao, according to who? Using incorrect pronouns usually leads to "oh, I actually go by they/them" or whatever, and then you say "oh sorry, thanks for letting me know". And then everything's fine.
Unless you're a cunt who refuses to use preferred pronouns, then it gets a bit less civil.
When are they going to address the issue that Body 2 characters receive less gold per kill than Body 1 characters?
And all of that is fine, you do you. But you'll find that more and more people disagree with your sentiment, and that as a society we are moving forward and getting more accepting in our ways.
But it costs so little to be nice to people, so for me, the choice is easy!
