I read the topic on ResetEra. TC, you werent being offensive and the context you used the words in was appropriate. People on ResetEra go out of their way to be offended. Most of them dont even live in the real world. People get warned or banned there for the most ridiculous things. I have some collages that Ill post soon so you can see for yourself.
Thanks. I was hesitant on posting the link here but I pretty much described where the topic was.

I was speaking frankly and asking what I considered honest questions about the topic. Nevertheless, I didn't use "female" in a derogatory way at all.

This is an older format of the website. As you can see, mods in ResetEra will warn or ban you for just about anything. Anyone into games will just have to tolerate this place since so many insiders and devs flock to it like moths to a flame. I only check in daily for potential leaks and insider info but I rarely post anything. Its better to lurk than to actively engage with that user base.

Yes, an alt account with the initials KKK just happened onto ResetEra and just happened to get banned for a complete misunderstanding.

Seems like a lot of coincidences at once. And we definitely got all the context from an alt account with almost a third of the possible karma.

If it makes you feel better tc I was once modded for using the word "girl" to refer to a 20 year old. Apparently "girl" was offensive and I should've used "woman"
There certainly is a best way to speak, cant have fast talkin people posting senselessly

I feel like something more probably happened. Everytime these type of stories pop up, the person downplays their behavior. That's not to say that Resetera doesn't easily ban people, but still.

On most websites I would agree with you. However, the mods at Resetera so power hungry, they make GameFAQ mods look like saints.

That...uh...person of the feminine persuasion who went ballistic about "female" in the post I quoted would have flipped her shit over "girl". It's so fucking ridiculous you don't even know what you can refer to someone as now without them losing their shit completely no matter what the context. I'm over it.

Yeah, I did some research on it this morning and came across this page. Seems very accurate.

Dude that was not what I was saying. Funny how that's how you want to interpret it though, that's some hardcore projection right there lol. Point still stands anyway. Never said that low karma isn't an indicator, but at the same time, you don't have to use this site everyday. A karma ratio like TC's isn't even that absurd either.

Yes, because you brought that up for no other reason. You dont even need to post to get karma. You literally just need to pull up the boards once.

Like I said; there was a reason why I said what I said. Again, its pretty funny how youre getting butthurt about me pointing that out when you literally have two accounts. Pot meet kettle.

lol okay guy. You're the one taking a simple statement as an attack. Is it really that foreign of a concept to you to not use a website for a day or two? I have said nothing at all in regards to having two accounts. I openly admit it actually. Going 2 for 2 on reading arguments that don't exist

Looks like post #69.

Is that the post that got him banned, though? I thought the post usually shows the reason for the ban.

Basically, just don't use female as a noun. It is dehumanizing to refer to a person as a female. It is the same as calling someone a transgender, a gay, or a black. You are not considering them as a person and are instead breaking them down to a single characteristic. It is insulting and people often do it intentionally while feigning ignorance. These people never use male in the same fashion. It is clearly meant to be sexist.
This is the reason, as crazy as it sounds. I (very briefly) dated a girl who was obsessed with social politics and she asked me not to use the word female, then talked about how it's only tied to their ability to reproduce. The girl was extremely openly racist against white people and hated Harry Potter because she claimed she hated trans people. I eventually just stopped responding to her text messages because she was just an overall awful person.

Shocking no one, this person got banned for something other than what they said they got banned for.

FFS, the messages directly after his are also saying female, its extremely obvious he didnt get banned for that lol.

From the interviews I've read she has made some very middle ground statements people seem to be extremely sensitive over, much like the TC's story. Do you have any first hand examples of her "hating on" trans people? You're probably like the girl I dated.

Regardless of her feelings, it does not effect my respect for her work.

I believe TC

Some people just want to be offended.

Gamefaqs isn't an exception. I got modded twice yesterday for asking users their opinions on police misconduct because "By asking people what they think, you're making implications of their beliefs!"

Which pretty much translates to "You're not allowed to talk on a message board" It makes no sense

And ResetEra is way worse than here.
