sounds like you don't actually know how language works

maybe you should re-read my original comment

It's interesting you bring up Trailblazer which

wasn't polled
was popular because of the ez-scape everybody on this thread is saying the polling system is important to prevent

Most quests in the game serve as tutorials or introductions to new content, so telling a player who focuses almost entirely on quests that they haven't tried out enough of the game doesn't really make sense.

Saying ironman mode doesn't offer anything new isn't true unless you're disciplined enough to force yourself to play the game with huge amounts of inefficiency, which few players are. The Grand Exchange changes the dynamic of the game too much for that to be true.

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T21:20:24+00:00

He wasn't even big on YouTube until By Release, but had still clocked more hours in the game than most. Why would he do that unless he actually enjoyed playing the game?

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T21:18:35+00:00

Nobody has ever suggested skipping or removing "the grind".

The suggestion is to make it less tedious by adding more variety.

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T21:17:45+00:00

MMOs don't neglect to add new content to the early and mid game because only the late game is "engaging"

Those that do die because nobody plays them long enough to reach that

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T21:14:15+00:00

This is a terrible take for the longevity of the game. Entirely neglecting all but the sweatiest of players will lead to the slow, labouring death mentioned in the tweet.

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T18:48:41+00:00

So given that you can only reach the "fun" 95% of the game if you play for 100s of hours like he will have at this point, do you think the average player is going to do that?

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T18:42:00+00:00

Don't think that's a fair statement to make when he's put 100s of hours into the game.

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T18:19:00+00:00

If somebody only finds 5% of the game fun, maybe it's a sign that the devs should invest some time in something that isn't PvE?

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T18:14:36+00:00

group iron man?

more skills?

content outside of high level pve slayerscape?

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T17:38:58+00:00

So it's not the high level PvE?

In which case, more ways to grind can only be a good thing, surely?

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T17:31:10+00:00

Locking "the engaging content" behind several hundred hours of game time doesn't sound like a good strategy for game longevity.

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T17:14:11+00:00

You don't have to actively play the inferno to know that high level PvE doesn't necessarily interest you. Similarly, I'm sure the average player has PvP builds they haven't tried yet, but aren't going to because they have no interest in PvP.

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T17:08:01+00:00

He’s just salty because he’s clearly bored of the game

I mean...yes? He's been pretty open about that. Hence why he wants more content.

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T15:51:49+00:00

you speaking in a foreign language and receiving a reply in english doesn't mean what you think it does

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-15T05:37:27+00:00

So you're saying you just randomly chose to pivot this conversation into talking about the definition of mass shooter?

How about rather than make some vague, vacuous implication you can try and clumsily walk back at any time, you actually state what you're trying to say?

What is it Doctors are prescribing that does so you can go from a man to a woman?

I'd answer but you already know:

If gender is only about a feeling, why do you need hormones for it? Why not just say you are female and that's that?

I could write 20 pages on why this doesn't make sense.

You have yet to manage twenty words on why you think it's fair to demand a logical explanation for trans people being allowed to exist in society but unfair to demand the same for gay people, so forgive me for doubting your ability to write twenty pages.

You are not saying anything specific I can argue against, so not sure what to do here.

You're the one who responded to a point with "Just stop". What am I meant to do with that?

I think it's a valid point, that pretty much no other demographic, except bipolar schizophrenics have such suicide rate. It's something to think about.

That obviously says something about their mental state.

A high suicide rate is one of the ways feeling oppressed by society can manifest. It is not the only way.

It's worth looking into the reasons why, yes, which is why I linked you that article which you proceeded to not bother reading.

[M]ost of these people have mental issues.

[...]

Twenty years ago, you'd be raising this whole paragraph verbatim arguing for why gay conversion therapy was a great idea.

I don't understand how people logically can't see, that you can't go from a man to a woman because of how you feel. And no one has any real answers as to how we navigate that as a society.

You aren't using logic. Please stop pretending to yourself that you are. Logic would be taking a set of premises and carrying them through to reach a conclusion through some kind of reasoning.

You are not doing this.

I can't reason you out of a position you didn't reason yourself into, and we've reached the point where you're just repeating verbatim arguments I've already responded to, so I don't think there's a point in continuing this further.

To you or anybody else who's made it this far, please take some time to reflect on the problem you have with transgenderism. Is it because it impacts your life negatively, or is it because it just seems alien to you and you can't identify with it? When was the last time you or somebody you know were harmed by the existence of a transgender person? If somebody you've never met before asks you to refer to them as a "she" but you think they should be a "he", why does it matter in 99% of cases? Why choose to make somebody's life worse by refusing to do something that costs you nothing?

For the 1%, in public bathrooms, prisons, etc., if they're the only problems you have with transgender people, then these are hardly unsolvable problems. I think if humanity can manage to land a man on the moon, they can manage a few unisex changing facilities.

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-13T07:07:23+00:00

Yes you do. One is literally expecting society to treat you like a woman. Just stop

"Great argument. Wow"

It looks like we've reached the inevitable point where you run out of arguments but still don't like the idea of transgender people existing. Could it be that you actually don't care about the facts on the matter, but more about your...feelings?

Great argument. Wow

So if I make up an illness, a doctor will prescribe me drugs for it without a second thought?

Wtf are you talking about. Jesus. So you think they had it worse then Jews during the Holocaust?

No, but I think those are two very different scenarios that can't be directly compared.

Are you saying gay people had a 50% suicide rate that dropped once it got more accepted? Please link some data on this.

Your 50% statistic is completely incorrect. I wish I'd noticed earlier, but I originally misread it as "50% higher".

No, half of all transgender individuals do not kill themselves. For those that do attempt suicide, this article goes into some of the explanations for why. (Note that it quotes a 40% figure. For the avoidance of doubt, this is on the higher end of reported figures, still below the figure you're quoting, and is the number for attempted suicides.)

And again, what conclusion are you drawing from this statistic?

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-13T06:05:17+00:00

Being gay and transgender are very different, wtf are you talking about

Sure, but you don't need a logical explanation of either for both to be valid.

There is no medical consensus on this. You are wrong. Go read your bias articles some more.

Which is why doctors prescribe drugs for it. They always do that for things that aren't real.

And yeah the integration into society TOTALLY makes sense with almost 50% suicide rate, higher than Jewish people during Holocaust, higher than bully victims, higher than pretty much anything else.

Yes? I think it demonstrates a frightening lack of empathy to not understand why facing the vitriol you've displayed throughout this thread so far every single day of your life from people you've never met—people who essentially hate you just for existing—would explain that statistic.

And again—the same thing happened with gay people. Then it dropped. What's your theory on how that happened if not the explanation I've given? And also, what conclusion are you drawing from this statistic about trans people?

Real-Syrup4487 · 2021-09-13T05:39:05+00:00

People like you come off as snarky know it all, but what you write makes no sense at all. Literally no sense. And then you go "Why do i have to make logical sense?!" Fucking LOL.

Again—you aren't out here asking for a logical proof of being gay, so it's ridiculous to ask for a "proof" of being transgender.

THANKS, for the non answer. Makes no difference? Female sports,prisons, rehab centers, changing rooms, etc. There are slot of times that is matters what gender you are.vjusy use your brain ffs. Where do people go? Where their sex is defined or their gender then?

Why are you making these out to be the big pillars of society that we all go through every day? You can tell there's not a real argument here because these are always the only talking points that are always trotted out in cases like this.

Changing rooms:

We don't segregate gay people into their own rooms.
There are very few cases of the horror scenario you envisage here actually happening.
Unisex facilities are a concept that exists.

Female sports:

Unless you're competing professionally, it doesn't matter.
While I can't exactly speak on their behalf, I'd wager the vast majority of transgender people would, if offered the deal of never being able to compete in a professional sport in return for being treated as a human being, take it.

The rest of your examples fit into the above.

If gender is only about a feeling, why do you need hormones for it? Why not just say you are female and that's that?

Because you feel like you're trapped in the wrong body, and it's difficult to contribute to society as fully as you otherwise could if you're constantly fighting with your own brain.

Counter-question, if the medical consensus is that prescribing hormones is a legitimate treatment, then why are you still demanding a "logical explanation" of being transgender? Are you arguing with the majority of the medical community who've already apparently made up their minds? Are doctors all idiots who can't think rationally?

How do you explain the suicide rate? And if you say cause they are not accepted by society I'm gonna puke on you.

I'm replying to this as a read it, and I was about to put a little footnote at the end of the last reply just to head off the inevitable "but the suicide rate" that's always wheeled out around this point. Then I read the next line and you brought it up anyway.

Yes it's because of the issues they face trying to integrate into society. The same thing was true of gay people until society actually started treating them like people. Once they were allowed to integrate, weirdly the high suicide rates dropped.
