The only controversies I'm aware of involve asshole individuals being assholes, though I admit I never actually watched the infamous Jak and Daxter run from Bonesaw. This is why I said what I said. You seem to be implying that GDQ, completely by their own volition and not at all at the recommendation of any of their sponsors, are bringing an inordinately large hammer down on people who swear on stream. If this is true, can you cite examples? I honestly hadn't heard of any. Like, I remember Linkus7 dropped "shit" at least once (I think it was twice) during his WWHD 100% run. Did he get in trouble for that? If this is not what you are implying, can you clearly state what you are getting at, and provide examples of such? |

Seriously, stop spinning this like I'm against everything GDQ stuff does. There are no f-words and I can get behind that. But some decisions just start feeling ridiculous. Or is it forbidden to have opinions here? |

You are free to continue appealing to emotion and making other statements that suggest you are not actually interested in a good-faith discussion, but do be aware I will not be dignifying them with direct address, and that the overwhelming majority of the people that read this thread will similarly not be baited. It is a waste of your time to continue them. The "who's decision was it" is indeed important. If profanity muting is strictly a GDQ-as-an-organization decision, then certainly there are changes that could be suggested to make the situation better. But let's say PCF itself called for a muting of profanity. In that case, what's your proposed solution to the issue? I had not heard about this alleged coughing censorship, as I caught maybe thirty seconds of the Vice City run. Is there evidence the coughing was an intentional profanity-censor, done at GDQ staff's behest, and not someone actually needing to cough, or people that knew what was coming having tongue-in-cheek fun with the run? |

But I guess I'll take a page out of your book and won't bother with any more answers since you --- Quote from: Suwako Moriya on January 23, 2019, 05:42:03 PM ---will not be dignifying them with direct address --- End quote --- Believe whatever you want. |

--- Quote from: CyberAngel on January 23, 2019, 03:21:34 PM ---And if you think I'm overreacting here's an analogy. You come to a restaurant and order a pie of your favourite flavor. It's delicious but halfway through eating it you notice a metal bolt inside one piece. You throw it out and finish it. The pie is still delicious. But you'll forever remember the restaraunt as "the one where they put bolts in your pies" and feel like avoiding in in the future. Is this not a reasonable reaction? Is mentioning that metal bolt incident to your friends suddenly a faux pas? --- End quote --- That's... really harsh. It's just swear words. You're letting this get to you too much instead of just enjoying the marathon. |
