Which is why the whole ruse looked farcical to me. I actually disagree with you. I don't remember the exact offending statements, but I know I had a read during the game that I thought rsoultin might be scum because she wasn't offended enough. Maybe my sensitivity is set a little higher because I'm a not-straight guy who lives in the bible belt, but I don't think so. To give an example, one of my friends I can't make "Your Mom" jokes with because his mom died of cancer two days before I was supposed to go visit her. We've been friends since I was like 6 or 7; and our circle of friends were all very close with his family (even though we all still joke that she was a bit crazy and yelled at us to go to bed instead of playing video games). It's just an issue that even 5 years after the fact is a very sore spot. I get very heated when people I barely know make homophobic comments or gay jokes; to the point that when a patient made a homophobic slur against me, the staff I was working with didn't allow me to have a patient to prevent any sort of problems. If I were a mod, I hope I would've stopped the shit that went on in this game earlier. I don't think there's a clear delineation of where I can point to and say, "This is over the line." Because it's ok to call people bad; there's also a point where calling someone bad repeatedly is over the line. I don't think everyone's line is going to be in the same place; lord know's palmar's isnt. But I think that when it comes to the historically oppressed (women, transgender, gay, non-white, etc.) we should err on the side of caution so everyone is capable of having fun. | ||

Adding femine as a descriptor for lots of hearts and squiggles I guess is inherently sexist due to being gendered but it in no way implies she is doing these things because she is female. Quite the contrary, I call her mafia for the buddy hearts. This I think is a fine observation; I think it hits on whatever it was that I couldn't pick up on why I didn't like her early on. But it's not how it came across in game imo. To me, it came across as more "she's acting like more of a girl now;" which I think is why I didn't really follow up on or think about those comments seriously. | ||

The thing is that the TLMafia boards, because of the nature of the game, have a bit more lax enforcement. Any blatantly homophobic, sexist, over the line jokes, can and should be reported. However, the problem is that many times what would be ok to post here and what would be ok to post on the rest of the forums are entirely different. So because we tell everyone, especially newbies, to not use the report button and instead take it to the mod; some things don't get handled as swiftly as they would elsewhere. And most mods know to let TL mafia police itself unless it's blatantly over the line. In my years of being here, I think I've only used the report button twice and once was Robik. | ||

And the problem is I know all of you off of the mafia game but clearly not enough that you know me as a person and what I'm like. I'm all about the inflammatory boundary pushing and trolling to make people laugh for sensitive topics and that doesn't translate well to a forum where you can't hear cadence and tone. No I get it. A bit ago, I made a facebook post about how Wizards of the Coast has a problem and it's best seen in it's recent promo video because all the ladies in the promo video were fangirling. I was trying to make the point that WotC has basically hired people who are just "Yes men" and refuse to challenge stupid/bad ideas and mechanics; that wizards isn't hiring quality staff (regardless of gender). But it turned into a cluster fuck post where most people called me a sexist bigot and didn't listen to the point I was trying to make (or correct their misconception of my stance). | ||

Like here's the thing Rels. If you start playing and start to look towny on D2, you've helped scum get a more favorable lynch on D1. On D1, I think Rels, SL, Koshi, TW, Tina and maybe EC could've all been solid lynches as Lurker + questionable play. On D2, Rels removed himself from that list; maybe EC did too. IDK, I feel really good and bad about my EC reads this game (which I'm ok with since I haven't seen him before). IMO, the most important thing you can do as town is to remove yourself from the lynch list. If all townies are obviously town, then finding the right person to lynch becomes super easy. Even if they're just reasonably townie, people will find reasons to lynch someone else. | ||
