While hilarious to read and even more enjoyable to dissect, well, it's still inherently a waste of my time. You will be called out for discrimination though. I'd hardly describe myself as militant, but I will be the person I need to to shove common sense down your fucking throat. You know what I want to do on this forum, Rhinox?
I want to talk about Final Fantasy XI Online and other subjects that are important to me. One such subject was the brutal attack on somebody targeted due to their sexual orientation or gender identity! But you know what I like doing more? I like sharing what music I'm listening to, and I like being berated when I make a less than stellar post! I really do! I like posting about the good times I had on my server with friends that have long since quit. I liked going to this forum more than I did other places, and that's still the case for the most part, but you brought something to light which I could not ignore. Look at what you've done, Rhinox. You personally spearheaded 34 pages and counting of bigoted(yet sadly expected) comments from a wide array of people on this forum. You have made jokes upon the backs of the people who have been hurt by the same words you still shill out. And I don't want to play FFXI Online anymore. I don't want to play FFXIV anymore. I don't want to play games anymore. And they have always been an integral part of who I am as they have so often gotten me through rough patches in my life and the friends I've made, while few, have also helped in that. I am at a loss now and I am simply tired of trying to get you to see where I am coming from and why what you're saying is less than acceptable behavior. And this too will almost certainly be mocked too.
