I'm gonna weigh in and then that's going to be it, there are important points here that
need to be addressed, but this is not open to discussion.
Jokes are supposed to be funny. This is unfunny punching down on the disabled.
What is funny is subjective from person to person, but this amounts to "This disagrees with my opinion on a social issue, therefor it isn't funny.". That's not a metric that's acceptable for judging. I would overrule you in a heartbeat.
Don't make an assumption that I'm the one assuming things, and please practice what you preach, thanks.
You came in here guns ablazin' because something offended your sensibilities and immediately went on the offensive instead of even
considering there was any validity here. You do not have the moral high ground you're pretending to have here.
it's hard to assume the addon was made in good faith.
This is not relevant to whether or not you can approach a topic reasonably and fairly. Jumping on the offensive immediately is absolutely incorrect from the outset. If you have concerns about something, I don't mind asking for reasonable clarification if you're up front and honest and not accusatory about the concern you have. That isn't what happened here. It's not a hard and fast rule, but Wikipedia's "Assume good faith" policy is a
really good benchmark for how to approach things.
I dunno, I think this is an important conversation to have.
I don't. This is not about to become a hub for discussion about social perceptions around a joke.
I just wish people like Prime and to a lesser extent CobaltBW would be a little more civil about it instead of being all like "you CHOSE to be offended"
They're reacting quite appropriately to the situation. Two people who, quite frankly, obviously came back to this thread just because they saw something that bothered them and have not
actively participated in the general community
for years acted offended and being aggressive about it.
You started the problem. You got called out on it. You have no business calling foul here
It costs $0 to stay in your lane and have some empathy.
Was this a personal attack against you? If not, I suggest you take your own advice here. Stay in
your lane and stop trying to force people to abide by your beliefs, or otherwise make them accountable for you as though you're a presiding judge over them.
Or to be more blunt, if Prime had just kept his unnecessary remarks to himself and waited for Inazuma to weigh in, we wouldn't still be talking about this. Inazuma's clarification
The unnecessary remarks started with the obvious passive aggressive attitude you came in with and were inflamed by someone else saying "Well if I were a mod or admin this would never happen.".
That is what was unnecessary. That behavior is antagonistic and you got the
completely predictable response.
This is not going to be allowed to go further than this. Please keep all comments related to the actual release and not this past roughly page of drama. Thank you.
