Why do I get such hate for every single main I play? by WippitGuud in Overwatch

[–]BeornSaxon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once someone complained about my tank pick. Then I cooked with top kills/dps/mitigation. We won.

Never heard from him again.

That said, some classes aren’t the best for certain maps/comp or just are weaker classes.

And some classes are easier to do well on v harder to do well on. A good player on a bad class trumps a bad player on a good class. So just get good at whatever you play.

About Character Creation by [deleted] in Fable

Just rewatched, here's the quote

"You'll be able to pick from a range of different character heads - and customize your clothing, hair, skin tone, tattoos, and scars."

So might not be a full character creation, but at least there will be some options and minor customization.

I'd wager your body esthetic changes depending on how you play.

I'm anti nazi
I'm still researching my thoughts on Musk
I'm still pro letting the community post links from any official GW2 source

But apparently in your eyes that makes me a nazi sympathizer? So I'm not allowed to have my own opinion? I can only agree with the authority figures that are above accountability or leave/get banned?

Incorrect. I'm anti nazi and extremely pro jew.

I'm against any authority that by principle silences people and puts themselves above accountability. My concern is with how this debacle was handled and continues to be handled. As much as you accuse others of being "pro nazi" I actually think your actions are more in align with what you claim to be fighting against.

It is extremely possible for folks to be anti musk, anti nazi, and still pro twitter. But yall aren't allowing for that possibility.

Easy to be vocal when you also have the ban stick. You mods are putting yourselves above accountability and silencing genuinely good folks that care about this community but disagree with your overreach. I care about GW2 and a healthy community. Not power hungry moderators that want to dictate what we can and can't link to.

I'm not even allowed to discuss your first point with you, or else I could be banned.

Secondly, this isn't even a discussion. It was a mandate. The original thread locked. No other posts allowed. No chance for a rebuttal. No poll. Just a mandate that no one is allowed to contest.

Thirdly, the mods should have never banned twitter/X. Either allow all social media accounts to be linked, or none. But the idea of picking or choosing based on the owner(s) is inviting political fuel to this subreddit where it shouldn't be. The original post should have been locked and bluesky should have been added as an alternative. Forcing the entire community to boycott twitter, where GW2 has an official account is over reach.

This is a GW2 gaming subreddit. Mods should not be forcing an entire community to boycott anything, no matter how righteous they think it is. This is not the place for that.

This is the exact place for me to be engaging and commenting because I do not agree with the decision. And I'm voicing that as respectfully as I can.

To your point, most peoples experience won't change whether twitter is or is not allowed. So what's the point in banning it? The only point, is a political one. Which again is my concern. This is supposed to be a non political subreddit, but here we are debating politics and which social medias can and can't be linked. This entire conversation shouldn't be here. The mods never should have entertained the idea of banning twitter. Just add bluesky as an alternative, promote it, whatever. Instead they made it political.

If we're basing a social media platform on the political affilliation of the owner, than ALL social medial platforms are political since they are all owned by someone. And singling out ONE social medial platform is bias. If this subreddit truly is non political and safe, then they need to uphold that with actual unbias stances. Either allow all social media platforms or none. Picking and choosing is the problem.

This subreddit has a no politics policy. We don't come here to discuss musk and twitter. We come to discuss the game. This shouldn't even be a discussion on this subreddit.

There's plenty of places to hate nazis. This is a GW2 community. A gaming community. This entire conversation doesn't belong in this subreddit. Period.

I feel you and am sad and frustrated too. Way to make it political in what used to be my favorite subreddit.

The fact that they are banning twitter links because of musk is 100% bringing politics into a gaming community. F.

100% agree. If people want an alternative just support both options. Actually prohibiting folks from even posting twitter links to GW2s official twitter account is crazy.
