Seriously, as a gay player I am appalled that I can't say gay in the game!

THe right word you should be saying is Homosexual if its to long for you use homo.

well am muslim and i hate gays. now is it necessary to say am a hater or muslim?

Wouldn’t it be easier just to ask for a option to turn off the filter?

…Eh?

Anyone with a brain would NOT get insulted by being called “gay” or “■■■*ot”. Just by knowing the origin of the word “gay” should make it completely non-offensive.

IF you’re offended by the notion of someone thinking that you’re a homosexual, then you’re probably slightly homophobic. However, even if you are, YOU KNOW that you’re not a homosexual, and that’s all that should matter to you, thus making you not have an aggressive reaction.

And yes, I know that if you’re homophobic, the word “gay” would probably be offensive to you just by the fact that you are homophobic, but since we’re talking people with “brain”, then I’m assuming that simply by considering everything (what the word means, the fact that you know that you’re not a homosexual…etc), you would still have enough self-control not to act aggressively to it, or even get defensive about it, but rather just ignore it.

“■■■*ot” is an informal offensive way to say “gay” or “Homosexual” and should really only be offensive for a homosexual person. Sensitive ones, at least.

Now, homosexual person that has a “brain” and is a bit less sensitive should in my opinion just go like: “Wait, ■■■*ot essentially just means homosexual (Talking NA, not British) and that’s what I am, should I really be offended by this word, just because someone, at some point labeled it as an informal offensive word for homosexual? No, I don’t think I should, so I’ll just ignore this person.”

I mean, if you think about it, when someone calls out a homosexual person with “Hey, ■■■*ot”, all they are saying is “Hey, gay” and for them, that should really just translate to “Hey, person that knows oneself”

That is at least how it would probably play out in my head. It’s what I think when I’m trying to empathize at this moment with a hypothetical homosexual person.

That’s my thought process for any word thrown at me that some people consider offensive.

I first think does that word even apply to me at all, based on who I am. Then HOW it applies to me… After which my reaction comes into place.

For me, calling me “Stupid” is more offensive than anything, seriously. There is literally no word that offends me more. Because it’s something that can be applied to me and ANY person. I think people should be more offended by being called stupid than anything, lol.

When people on the internet go ham on me for some reason with insults, like: “Hey ■■■*ot, ■■■■ loving piece of ■■■■, mother fucker…etc” it’s like they’re just writing “bla bla bla”.

If someone was saying that to me IRL, outside, as long as there’s a decent distance between us, it would be the same. I’d move away, not because I’m offended, but because obviously he would be yelling, so the noise would be extremely annoying.

If he was doing the same, but also invading my personal space, I’d probably punch the person as precautionary self-defense of a possible physical attack on me. Still not offended, though.

Look at this for example:

For me, those reactions make absolutely no sense. I would never react to that in this way.

I’d just say “No thanks dude” and move on.

tl;dr - People get offended by the most ridiculous things and I am glad that I am one of people that don’t get offended by many things :stuck_out_tongue:

Having it be filtered, but able to bypass that filter doesn’t change the fact that it’s a censored word and is ‘‘not okay’’ to say.

Although yes, a filter bypass definitely would be a good feature for this game.

Homo is used as an insult all the time though.

Yeah, i can clearly see the tolerance and civilness (is that even a word?).

I’d do the same.

do you have a summary for your long shiit?

I left a tl;dr in the end, lol.

You know… i thought this post worth a bit of the nosense but seems to not.

Hey don’t take me wrong, because i am lesbian. But you know my dear friend, the censored list that IMC have was provided from korean version… they just translated to english, is a shame that words like gay and lesbian were in the list, but this is how it is, Korea and the Werstern got 2 cultural standards so different and you can not do anything to change that… do you really think that with all the issues kn game IMC got they will really pay attention to a insignificant thing like this?

Cmon dude, this won’t happen and you will need to agree with it even if is contradictory to your believes, i don’t like it neither but this is how the world spin.

What made you thinl that IMC gonna change this words stuff when they can’t even do something against bots, dungeons bugs, spawn time and those stuffs?

All i see here was a little kid complaining because he is gay and he can’t say the word gay… sorry dude i am lesbian and believe me… this thread is a waste of time for IMC and everyone sorry but is the truth

Don’t get buttblasted because no one cares if you’re gay or not.

Players still use it in a derogatory way in online games a lot, which is why its blocked.

Is your standard conversation starter “hey guys, guess what, i’m gay!” There’s no reason for you to use it in general chat that often.

It has nothing to do with you as a person, but for the game as a whole and how its more commonly used as an insult, so stop trying to think you need special treatment here.

I’d say this were a joke topic as well, but with the way people are on the internet and other public media nowadays, I wouldn’t be surprised if this were serious.

It’s hilarious how you can’t say ‘gay’ in Three of Savior. I mean… the costumes are fabulous, my character is almost a drag queen, already!!

But seriously, gay isn’t a offensive word, the main problem is the straight fragility, as in PPG “Whenever their masculinity is threatened, they shrink in size”.
And of course it’s not a joke, it’s really bad when you see how your sexual orientation is still linked with something bad, an insult, even in Korea. Associating sexual orientation (gay, homo, fag) or gender (pussy, girly) with something bad is so 50’s.

Anyway… just play TOS, buy all the fabulous costumes, name your pet Phi phi Ohara. We can be as queer as we want without saying the word ‘gay’.

But this is why make the post. To get it corrected. Also ■■■ should be blocked.

even because of that reason, the truth hurts and the truth is that IMC will not pay attention to this sadly.

why? just knowing all the issues they got ingame is enough to know that they will even do not care about insignificant things like this.

Even if it is a small thing. I care about it and some other players here do too, it is a very easy fix compared to the bigger things.

exactly,

IMC can’t get rid of their biggest issue… what make you think they will change this matter? lol

this sadly is not gonna happen for a while.
