Please stop using the word rape to describe how you bested someone in a game. I get that you think it's cool. It's not.
What great old news.

I prefer my victories to be characterized as merciless slaughter where my game enemies are crushed, destroyed, and ground into the blood-spattered dust. Savage butchery? Sure! But no rape. Maybe some rapine, though, depending on what we're playing.
GW must have gotten teabagged by a 12 year old in a shooter.
Quote from: danbuter;514226GW must have gotten teabagged by a 12 year old in a shooter.
It's only rape if the teabagging wasn't consensual.
it's not anonymity. everyone uses this vile terminology all the time in gaming. it makes my skin crawl.
if i see it in WoW, the user gets reported then ignored. but i don't do raids or battlegrounds, so i don't see it too often, thankfully :mad:
Oh noes! It's rape culture again!
How about let's show our righteous fury for, for example, Saudi Arabia, where there indeed is no "no for an answer" in marriage, rather then bother with online snarks?
this is indeed a terrible thing...

because saudi isn't an 'other game', it's a country.

Dear pussified male feminists offended by words: please go back to Tangency.

Why can't we do both?
Just remember, you're supposed to rape the women and burn the fields, not the other way around.
I agree it's pretty obscene. It gets used, however, precisely because it's obscene. Solution: don't game with juvenile assholes.

I thought it was rape the livestock, burn the women and slay the houses.

This thread has about as much to do with gaming as BADD had with D&D.
In the end - grow a pair. People screaming insults on the Internet? Yeah, it's offensive, and I don't do that, but for fuck's sake, those are just words. Save your anger, you Tangency warriors, for the causes that deserve to be angry about.
Looks like the OP got raped in his own thread.
Definite p'wnage, yes.

Welcome to the Internet. At least here we don't quietly hate your wife because of her religious beliefs.
By asking guys to stop using the term "Get raped", or variations thereof, you agree to do one of two things:
1) Make guys not talk shit to each other (you can't do this)
2) Make rape not emasculating (you can't do this)
Don't worry, I assure you that the entire adolescent male population of the world will hold up their end of the bargain when you hold up yours.

Careful, you may offend someone. While we're on the subject, though, does anyone know what the "H." stands for?

It's a slang referring to IHC - Greek spelling of first letters from his name. Most commonly attributed meaning is Jesus Christ Saviour, as it can be also written IHS

Oh, okay. I'm familiar with the IHC/IHS abbreviation based on the Greek. Never connected that with the "Jesus H. Christ" thing, though. (Probably because I think of the abbreviation as being iota-eta-sigma, so I don't really think of the eta as an English H.) I get it now, though.

Cutting down rainforests, poisoning water supplies, fostering wars in poor countries, making a profit out of famines, using Third World populations as guinea pigs for ethically challenged drug trials, selling life-destroying psychoactive drugs like crack or heroin, actual rape... that's vile.
What a sheltered life you must live.

Not US specific, Rince... for one, not having rainforests of their own, the US will have a hard time competing with Brazil on the deforesting department.
As for volunteering, allow me to suggest a hospital close to your home or workplace, with a structured volunteership program.
I'm just surprised nobody posted anything about squealing like a pig, yet.

Oh I know The Butcher. I just love stabbing the Hamburgerland. I wanted to volunteer for quite a bit - but then again, I won't be able to keep my asshole's cred if I do so.
The sacrifices we make, eh.

I think it's a bullshit word choice because, by definition, nobody agrees to be raped. There's no consent.
However, if you step in to a deathmatch arena, you are agreeing to kill and be killed. There is automatically consent, else there wouldn't be a deathmatch.

I'm going to be a tremendous asshole here and return to comment on this. You are calling us "vile" because we're making fun of the OP for being oversensitive. We're not downplaying the experiences of rape victims. We're not saying that women deserve to be raped. We're not saying that women who are raped are bad people. We're saying that getting upset over the use of the term "rape" is stupid because it is a word. It is a
word on the
Internet.
Meanwhile, you post on a forum that hates your wife. They hate her religious beliefs, they hate that she's going to Seminary, and they hate her moral convictions. They see her as an enemy to their goals, an enemy of "their" society, and they want to silence her. They see her as ignorant and backwards and bigoted, and they hate her. Do you understand me?
They hate her.And we're the vile ones for telling someone to get over the use of the word "rape."
:rolleyes:

I think it would be better for gaming and, in a lot of cases - especially the kids that end up using these words without much thought, if there was a bit more sensitivity. People here might be smart enough (no guarantee though!) to get away with making fun my post, but i believe many, unfortunately, aren't.
Do not engage in crossboard dram- oh who am I kidding, I have another cheap laugh.
As another stab in the back for you, GW - cursing online will turn you into Bruce Willis!

RPG.net. Home of a vocal, atheistic left-wing community that perceives Christianity and anyone to the right of Karl Marx as an inherently evil person.

And did they actually express that hatered or is this just "they hate all christians, therefore they hate this christian"?

The rpg.net members may hate his wife, but the mods nuzzle his balls every chance they get. Might have something to do with it.
Quote from: DominikSchwager;514701And did they actually express that hatered or is this just "they hate all christians, therefore they hate this christian"?
Well, he did 'leave' RPGnet for a while because of this.
I dunno, what's more vile, a multitude denouncing someones closely held religious beliefs or a couple of people being irreverant about the term "raped."
As someone who couldn't give a fuck about the former, i think i know where my thoughts lie.
Quote from: DominikSchwager;514701And did they actually express that hatered or is this just "they hate all christians, therefore they hate this christian"?
The latter. But anyone of the Christian faith is an enemy, unless he subscribes to the worthless left-wing anomaly that more resembles Christian atheism than Christianity.
