I wish there were some rainbow flags in the bar in the fall.

    Problem I see is, it is a game and should stay to those standards when you start entering in lifestyles and ideologies you have to allow all of them no matter what one thinks.

    Confederate Flag ideologies
    Roman Catholic ideologies
    American Flag ideologies
    Heterosexual only Bars
    Rebel only Bars

    This will only divide players, and possibly lose players that do not agree with those ideologies.

    I think as a game attention should be paid to alot of other matters than personal lifestyles or personal ideologies..

    No idea anymore when I was young.

    Gay = happy
    Lesbian = Female/Female
    Homosexual = Male/Male
    Marriage = Male/Female
    He = Male
    Him = Male
    She = Female
    Her = Female
    And the rainbow came with 2 pots of gold and a Leprchaun.
    And a trans or trannie is what made my GTO go down the road like a bullet...

    Interesting points all around. As an aside...my wife came home from work (she's an engineer at Intel Corp.) the other day and mentioned that they have a rainbow flag flying from the poles at work this month.

    Recently I dyed my cloak pink for Breast Cancer awareness month...If they had a rainbow dye.. I'd go for that.

    Yea, I was pointing this out when people were asking for women guards in towns.... that all of the enemies are men but nobody was raising a problem about it. All the elves, satyrs, kobolds, and you can count trolls even. They hide all their women away. We do have a woman bandit of a sort in Owls Nest, though :D

    And... I don't really think its a good for people to assume that because you have a group of men only they're gay, either.

    We do... the cycling dye.

    If you are discriminated based on you sexual orientation then yes you would be a minority just like asexual are.
    There is no such thing as a sexual preference. If there was then you would have no problem choosing to be gay since a preference is something you can change. Sexual Orientation is not changeable it is decided at birth. If you some how think religion in not in the game I don't know what symbols you have been looking at. There are multiple religious symbols in this game. As well as multiple people play religion characters including yourself playing a druid character which is also a religion.
    Really no discrimination? Tell me where in the game there are two girls or two boys living together as a couple.? Where are the gay and lesbians professing there love to each other in Ardoris. If you see no discrimination in the game I don't know what to tell you. It's there and so there should be rainbow flags to remind people that discrimination is not ok.

    The lack of something is not proof of discrimination. If it were.. we could claim the game was biased against babies and giant toads as neither is to be found anywhere.

    There are those who debate this. What we should be able to agree on is that this isn't the place for that discussion.

    Exactly. But the weirdos are trying their best to drum up drama. Why in the OP is the bar in the fall referred to as "gay", but noone has questioned it yet? Why does this thread exist?

    Why is the Aerie Fund's latest project post pinned, after it wasn't, after several deletions, several edits, several questionings "why is something controversial and political being pushed on this game"?

    Being different or having another opinion doesn't make someone a weirdo. That's exactly the kind of talk that drums up drama.

    Maybe they own the bar and decided that's what it is? Why does it even matter?

    Being different or having another opinion doesn't make someone a weirdo. Posting weird **** makes someone a weirdo. As in "there's a gay bar in the fall" when there isn't, as far as I know OF COURSE NOONE WILL ANSWER THE QUESTION.

    Actually lack of something is the epitome of discrimination. A perfect example of this is and was in some places the lack of marriage. By preventing a population equal right you are discriminating. By not have representation in the game there is discrimination. They have a triad sex couple with two guys fighting over one girl in Ardois that includes S and M play yet I don't see any normal homosexual couples in the game.

    For the record I assumed they were talking about a town and just weren't being clear about it. You are obviously thinking about the dungeon.. of which I have seen very little so I can't comment.

    Not commenting on the Fall, but I wouldn't mind seeing a rainbow flag available. Heck, set it up as a Make-A-Difference store item, so it actually funds something worthwhile. I'd pick up a AERIE Fund sigil too.

    Help us support our own community. There is no more worthy cause.
