Nah, citizens do not care. For as long as money flows in the funding tracker and CIG and shills do shiny videos hiding the fact all is broken, and there are no actual reviews, the show will go on.

hello there, first of all its a shame what happened to our titanic. someone said 1 thing that not everyone can agree to 100% > ban. i was a bit shocked honestly.
then someone else says: "i thought she was such a good poster and then she says this? how could i be so wrong?"

well, if you think that a friend is only a friend if they agree with you 100% of the time, then maybe clone yourself?
or join the borg collective?

i might get banned and yes gimme the banhammer why not.
titanic was/is a cool person. she is a ship godammit! i'm a robot. what do we know.

anyway...cig should just get rid of quantum travel, that gives em some time to build systems while commandos travel at sublightspeed.

She wasn't banned, she just stopped using the forums (or at least posting) after a bunch of people called her a nazi and said she should be killed. Or she's mad about being on such a ~~wOkE FoRuM~~ :iiam:

Bringing this conversation back up is a terrible, terrible idea however lol

If any of you ever ventured outside this increasingly terrible thread you’d realise the wider forums have no tolerance for bigoted bullshit.

I’m surprised it even still exists given CIG haven’t done anything funny in years and it’s now 90% just reposting one specific idiot’s comments from Reddit and circlejerking over what a weirdo he is.

You’ve gazed too long into a particularly lovely abyss.

If anyone is wondering why stuff like that results in an almost insta-probe I suggest you check out the rest of the forums, SA is not Reddit thankfully and doesn't suffer bigoted hot takes well.

There's a reason "lurk more" is at the top of the forum rules, you're gonna eat a probe if you post here like it's Reddit.

Since I guess it needs saying again, trans rights are human rights, and I don’t think anyone here wants to read anyone’s opinions about how maybe trans people are actually in the wrong for wanting basic human rights.

Also bans and probations are different and mean specific things here on SA. Let's say what we mean.

Coming in to complain about Titanic being banned is so telling. Mods made this clear.

Lots of people who joined SA in the late 20-teens to make mid jokes about star citizen have adapted to the culture of the forums. If you haven't maybe that's a you problem.

Yes, I would in fact cease being friends with someone who was a bigot. It's a pretty easy stand to take. Have some principles for gently caress's sake.

And it actually kicks rear end that Titanic was so shouted down that they have entirely stopped posting since being probed. She literally said that trans people shouldn't have rights because boy howdy, it sure muddies the water on what it means to be a woman.
Come on.

Are you a woman and worried about women's rights?

Wouldn't it be great if you had other (more) women that also want women's rights and would support you in your struggles?

Trans Rights are Human Rights.

Well seeing as the thread's gone to poo poo...

I don't agree with Titanic's position. But I understand that some women who've been victims of sexual assault, in particular, are going to feel that way regardless. Titanic felt safe enough in the thread once to discuss her own experiences in that area.

In that light this dog pile looks all kinds of crap to be honest. Her post wasn't worded with hate. But it may well have come from a place of fear. That kind of transphobia.

If this was a great place for discussing such things, then it would be great if it could be done better.

But it isn't, so back to the cats.
