Being LGBT, I actually don't mind the topic being banned from the forums. I don't think Jagex is in any way homophobic, I think that the ban is more akin to the reasoning behind banning political and religious debates. Someone always, always , always ,
ALWAYS
takes things too far and these discussions end up as flame wars. I haven't seen a single instance of this not happening, in all of my time using the internet , not just this website.

We don't want a debate, and the debate over LGBTQ+ topics can remain banned for all I care. Just like religion and politics, but you don't see the word "republican" or "christian" banned.

yes but regardless, LGBTQ terms deal with sexual things, they don't want any sexual things,

I disagree 100%. LGBT terms are ways that people identify themselves, similar to what is mentioned above about how it is perfectly acceptable to say "Christian" or "Republican".

The LGBT terms are not always talked about in a sexual nature.

nice click bait.

I don't want to hear about anyone's straight, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, intersex, asexual, ally or otherwise pansexual life. The RSOF is not your sexual orientation blog or political agenda.

There is no reason, on the Runescape official forums, that I need to hear about whether you are straight, gay, or whatever else you can come up with to identify yourself. There's no reason. This is a game forum.

because it's so important that OP tells us he identifies as an androsexual. God/Allah forbid we talk about Runescape on these forums without him first telling us he identifies himself as a common house plant.

as a straight liberal omnivore i find it offensive that you don't care about my identity

Nice try. Being LGBTQ+ isn't inherently sexual and is more complex then just sex. Love does always involve sex. And Transgender does have anything to do with sexual things, it's gender identity, completely different. Again, if LGBTQ+ terms are allowed on the forums there is not going to be rampant sex talk on the forums in fact those type of threads should always be locked but one should be allowed to say, "hey, I am bisexual, gay, lesbian, transgender, queer, etc." Queer folk are not going to be divulging their sex lives on the forums, straight people don't do that now, and we're no different.

The importance of it to you, frankly, is irrelevant.
