yeah its really unfortunate. in a community so racially diverse and largely lgbt its tough when you find out you have a transphobe or should i say transphone on your friends list. im in a bit of a pickle here but my struggles isnt anything compared to the minorities that go through hardship every day of their existence

yeah thats why i thought this was a good idea to bring yo the public. it really is an issue we need to tackle as a community, telephone fan being a famous person where tonnes of players idolize him sets a terrible example to the youth wherein it creates a toxic environment to the most vulnerable. TF2 is a community rife with furries, homosexuals, transexuals, blacks, asians, mexicans, etc should be leading an example to the rest of the gaming realm

it has to stop NAO

Most people who develop an utter hatred towards, say, gay people (though it applies for the whole LGBT community), is due to their inability to process the fact that being such themselves is just normal, usually clashing with what is set to be appropriate or acceptable by God - in case of religious parents, during their upbringing.

What I am saying is, odds are, telephone fan is trans himself

hows it autistic? just recently we've had quite a big thread about Stephenie, a well known member of the community, being harrassed by two vandals on TF2 center. how is it 'autistic' that i want people to enjoy their hobby rather than live in fear that they will be attacked? or how when Nursey is mentioned in a twitch stream and the whole chat goes 'you mean him' ?

but of course, you're going to describe that as 'autistic' because you're an ableist so you're probably a transphobe at the same time. grow up fool

edit: just realized my remark of 'kid' was ageist so ive changed it. my mistake

Your reputation on this site is trying to use an extremely awful level of humor trying to sound above people or trying to get reactions out of people by you intentionally saying something incredibly stupid (I hope intentionally or else I would fear for your actual brain development). You should be able to understand why no one wants to take what you say seriously at all, but I highly doubt someone like you actually even cares or maybe you even believe this is a great way to get laughs.

I've been harassed a multitude of times while playing this game. I wasn't a saint myself when I first started so I always just took it, thinking it's what I deserved. I think I've more than enough developed myself to be able to say I don't really do anything to deserve this unwarranted disrespect anymore. Having your friends message me 'can u have sex with funhaver' is incredibly unfunny and just ruins the small reputation of what we have even more. I don't even know why TFTV even continues to allow unfunny, harmful circlejerks like these to even continue.

There is nothing you are doing that is helping anybody. This forum is all the competitive scene has for conversation and the fact it's allowed to be plagued by the likes of conversations like this is genuinely awful. I hope one day you'll mature and realize what you are doing is genuinely awful for yourself and those around you, but with how consistent you are in acting, I doubt that day won't come for years from now.

you saying 'chicks with dicks' is like when someone uses the n word hard r but says theyre not racist and how a non black could be a hard r n word. you don't see them as women you just she them as a guy in costume. its transphobic. if you were a minority you would understand why what someone says on the internet is because it reflects how people think in close doors. if IRL nobody said anything and on the internet everyone calls you a 'tr*nny' it reflects how the main population really feels about you but won't say it IRL because there's no repercussion

and look, youre using the R word to describe someone stupid. youre abelist and transphobic and you don't even know about it, but its common speech so you probably think i'm just chatting shit because youre doing what the main population are doing, but the influx of people using these real life states of identity that effects real people causes real life harm despite it being on the internet

not trying to sound like im above anyone, i'm trying to educate people and hold people accountable when they do something wrong the same way people who say the N word irl get sanctioned.

your interpretation of my sense of humour is just your own perception, its not whats actually happening. the thread is just holding a member of the community accountable for toxic views. as an ally, im trying to do what i can to free up that abuse that you recieve and we haven't even really got that far with it to say if its helping or not.

lets see how niko responds to see whether or not its worth it. probably can assume he would be someone who would hurl abuse at you, but maybe we can open his mind to it.

its yone far too long. remember the tagg situation? that was a mess and now we'v lost onr of the greatest roamers of all time. its gotta stop

huh? if you use terms like 'retarded', 'autistic', 'down syndrome', etc as an insult, you're saying that to be those conditions is a bad thing, but having autism and having down syndrome are real life things that people have and those people can do amazing things

for example my teacher in secondary school was an autistic savant and he could read our multiple page essays just by glancing at the page. he absorbed all the information of the page at the same time. but Yight's gonna make fun of autistic savants when he's playing vs someone playing bad form in MGE. that's abelist and people just laugh at it like its a joke but it has effects on real people.

and because you're a cis het white male you're not gonna feel that because no ones making fun of you. you're not gonna catch Niko here saying 'wow i'm being so masculine' as self depreciation because its not seen as an insult, but 'wow i'm being so retarded' is because its seen as an insult

@Nursey
It's all down to who cares and who doesn't. As if I started bitching on the forums when someone comments on my profile 'suck my dick' or whatever since I'm gay. Instead of taking it personally and complaining about it, laugh it off, because none of the words spoken matter. People who insult others really care less than you think. Nobody is going to hurt you, accept it as another visitation (haha pun) in your life to overcome - not to be so labile and be more thick-skinned.

Surfing on NA MGE Ammomod helps with that. Kappa
