quite interesting. Weird that it was an issue at all in the first place. This was my favourite bit in the article, made me chuckle:

Gay pride marches are known to have taken place in Warcraft


must have looked fantastic!

Gay Barbarians?...

pretty scarey heh, I mean when it comes to rape and pillage, you'd better hide.

ROTFLMAO @ GA... good one :)

Stupid gnome...

There was a guy on the server I used to play on who had a guild called 'Only Gay in the Village' with only him in it, and he's announce over the channels to complete strangers that he was gay.

Whenever anyone got into an argument with him, he'd play the 'is it because I'm gay card'.

there's a card for dat!!!???

well... live and learn...

When i reached level 50 all i could think was: "World of Waiting is gay".
Started Star Wars Galaxy a week before SOE changed gameplay to fit needs of WOW players.
SOE call it NGE...New Gay Experience.
Started Everquest2 just to find out now that they will change gameplay to make it simple enough for WOW players. But why 11 year old need gay gameplay?
Before Blizzard i had nice complex worlds to play with, now i have nerds which would do everything for some items...everything..hehe
I always knewed, Blizzard is the leading company if you need high addictive gay gameplay.
An what did they expect? Most poeple usualy have to wait hours to get a group together, thats boring, and not enough female elfes out there...
I wouldnt care if other companys wouldnt change gameplay to that Blizzard gayness.
Nothing vs gay at all..

Why should you have to listen to someone talk about their decision to not reproduce, when all you want to do is play a game?

now here's an idea. How may people in WOW are gay but have normal characters and how many "normal" people have gay characters, for a laugh? In fact how many pretend to be lesbians?

..I like gays becouse I have more womans for myself :))...but....hmm..burn them anyway..

hahah...they have gay pride marches in WoW.....now i've seen everything...

The whole issue is very ghey.

i agree... some of those posts above appear... well, just a lil gay to me...

..any skinhead here?? :))

well it wasn't sposed to be an anti-gay thread. I just found it interesting is all.

There's a specific type of gay person I hate. It's the kind that goes on marches and constantly talks about how they're gay.

I'm straight, do you think I go around saying I'm straight and march around in the streets (causing a great deal of problems for those driving) saying it? No. I've deduced that the vast majority of gay people who do this are attention whores who have nothing better to do than talk about how they're gay. By this, it is obvious that their entire life goes to how much attention they receive over their sexual preferences.

And, unfortunately, a lot of these people seem to be playing World of Warcraft. Looks like I'm going to have to make a point of avoiding another group of people.

MMOGRPG? Its all about the Gayplay.(TM)

You can't trademark that... They class themselves as GAYmers!

@Noel - lol, good point, though I bet someone will take offence.

Looks like I'm going to have to make a point of avoiding another group of people.
... another group... just how many groups of people are you actively avoiding at the moment...

Red: More than I can count.

heeee heee heeee... somehow, i kinda guessed that that was the case :P

loosen up dude... give in to your x chromasome desires... don't be afraid... you know ya want to :)

oh, me... nahhhh... i've got 2 y chromasomes... so there's no chance in heaven...

... not that there's anything wrong with it!!!

--Mike

I wonder what group category I'm in on Noels avoid list. I'm thinking the "schizophrenic "Oh no this guys charles manson"" avoid list.

hahaahaha :)

Um, yer, it's amazing this thread hasn't been locked.

Schizophrenics are only bad when the vast majority of the inside of their brain is gone. So it'll be around there in about 20-30 years.

So it'll be around there in about 20-30 years.
... yeah, schizophrenia is one thing... but the paranoia that you admit to, is an immediate thing... at least he has another 20 or so years of good living... you're already in need of treatment :)

Paranoia and avoiding people to spare me the irritation they cause are much different things, Red.

naahhh... it's not noel... the underlying cause is the same...

it's the fear of what you don't understand about them that makes you feel the need to avoid them... your inability to acceptn or even entertain the idea of certain concepts is at the root cause...

... or it may just simply be a neural chemical imbalance.

either way, it's a classic case of paranoia if i ever saw one :)

I think this has steered off topic somewhat.
