Moral Chaos

Moral Chaos

I started playing a new quest and noticed all the characters had pronouns next to their names, and one of them had plural pronouns (they/them), and I found the update uncomfertable. Runescape was a means to escape politics and nonsense, but now it's adding woke ideologies to its own world. Obviously, it's a fictional world and can have any made up ideas it wants, but this new addition clearly came from the false political narrative that gender is a construct and not a birth right. I really wish Runescape would stop trying to push political nonsense into a fictional world as a means to appease people who will never play the game and just make it a place to escape from reality.

^how is Moral being hateful?

Your talking about those pronouns that go against my beliefs and forced upon me and my kids....

So this 'Hate' talk is a double standard on both sides of view.

I skipped the quest chat and noticed it but it's whatever to me. World still spins and humanity is breaking apart on a division event that might cause another War based on religion.

Humanity truly loves to repeat history, chaos then order...

This isn't really a recent update, but I hope the FMod moves it to General forum rather than locking it.

Nothing wrong with having input on the state of the game, that's what the forums are for.
Except that OP clearly sees this as a political, not moral, issue, and the discussion of politics is not allowed anywhere on the forums.

I think (may be wrong) but discussion of politics ban means real world politics that are completely in real world like elections/wars/border disputes et al. This would be kind of a grey area as Jagex took that politics and put it into the game themselves.

Therefore in my opinion the real world political ban would not apply in this case.

Idc what pronounces Jagex gives their characters, but I do mind they forced they/them on my character in the recent updates/quests.

So how about this... since this game is more or less togglescape already - give us pronouce toggle for our charaters: he/him, she/her, they/them, etc... and let that affect how NPCs adress us in the future updates/quests, no need to retrofix this for old content imo (unless some jmod has too much time on their hands). They managed to do this for Duke/Duchess/Dux, so why not this?

Seeing as this is not a Recent Game update and been in the game for a while I've locked it.

You need to remember it's a game in the end. Some parts you may not like. Some parts you may like. I have parts of the game I'm not keen on so keep away from. I still play the game.

Also rememebr Politics can't be discussed anywhere within the Forums and you made this a Political thread so was locked instead of moved to Rants.

I've also removed the Duplicate thread. Comprehensive Account Security
Live long and Prosper...... :P
