Re: YDIW disguised moderation ?

As far as I can tell the moderated post was a response to my suggestion that, in order to explain the character's ignorance about Minmatar culture, Adreena have an ex-slave or diaspora origin. No idea why that provoked such a fine display of frothing. I don't recall saying anything about being an abused ex-slave.

Of course there's the whole debate about "does slavery constitute abuse in an of itself?" But that's been done quite a bit elsewhere.

I was just trying to expand on that, no negativity was intended.  :| I'm basing my argument of "try something not cliche OMG raped slave" on several ooc talks with mini rp'ers who told me that, in hindsight, they'd rather not have chosen such a problematic background...


Regarding the frothing "YDIW" moderation:



Edit: Just saw this and could not pass up the chance to reply :D

Ok, I see your point, even if it's quite... looking for it imo. Thanks for the answer.

You are free to disagree.

Why adding that bit ? It's just the polite form of

"This is why we did this and stfu if you disagree"

It's annoying (and not very respectful), especially since I don't even disagree.

I would imagine it was added to let you know you are allowed to disagree.

Yep, nobody is mad with power here, please move along citizen, there is nothing to see!

[mod]Personal attacks. If that was the point you wanted to make, you should ask yourself why you did not word it that way the first time around, which would have been acceptable.[/mod]

Morwen's Law:
1) The number of capsuleer women who are bisexual is greater than the number who are lesbian.
2) Most of the former group appear lesbian due to a lack of suitable male partners to go around.
3) The lack of suitable male partners can be summed up in most cases thusly: interested, worth the air they breathe, available; pick two.
