  1. Content Guidelines The following is considered prohibited content Hate speech: Hate speech is defined as anything threatening or abusive towards a specific group based on their race, religious beliefs, political affiliation, disability, sexual orientation or gender identity I know the HC developers (?) didn't come up with the content in the game that I posted. If you allow a female to be called a name in the game like hussy, harlot, whore, hooker these are derogatory terms, it's allowing hate speech, just because a member of the community suggests artistic license doesn't mean that it isn't hate speech in regards to gender, that's like saying (Insert slur name here and let's discuss how that's okay to use this slur name). Words like Harlot used in this way ,would be called called sexual bullying that means that this term is cultural misogyny. "any behavior which degrades someone, singles someone out by the use of sexual language, gestures or violence, and victimizing someone for their appearance." Kids play this game, women and girls play this game. The prevalence of this kind of thing encountered in every day life can be overwhelming depending on where you live and what your immediate culture/schools/work place allow to continue without support and saying no this isn't okay. So then seeing it in a game it's literally like wtf? Who is the person behind that and why would they think that is okay to do. It feels odd to explain this - Basically if you wouldn't call your boss if she was a female that name to her face, then why would you continue to allow it in a game when your content says that it's considered prohibited. Part of what sexual harassment falls under is things like; abusive, sexualised name calling and insults (such as calling someone a slut, or frigid) The person behind the writing of the text for this character, put sexual harassment into the game. In this response to me, it feels like you are saying "Let's discuss how sexual harassment is okay because it's fictional" yet there's someone behind the input of that. So I don't get that. I definitely won't be playing that arc again and I suggest if you're a female and have had to deal with this kind of thing in your life you avoid it. I know characters like The Joker were bad characters and the Penguin and scores of other villains and I didn't come across them calling Catwoman a slut or other derogatory name. Again I am offering my opinion. On this thread, It's my opinion and the amount of people who are like, You're wrong (for having an independent opinion that most likely doesn't come from their lens of life experience?) - or offensive things just ick. This may help in determining if it's okay to put in a game as this has everything to do with the gender of a female being called a Harlot : Could we make the person that he's calling a derogatory name with a disability and make Cole call the person in a wheel chair a derogatory name in game based on their disability? because that's a protected class. Maybe it could be their ethnicity. It could be one of these things that's not supposed to happen because of the code of conduct; race, religious beliefs, political affiliation, disability, sexual orientation or gender identity. Because right now it's not cool that it's being said about a female character based on what she's wearing in a game even if it's fictional because again, kids and women play this and I'm sure there are men out there who dislike that as well, even if they're not popping into this thread. and on this thread, there are tons of responses and people aren't like yep not cool to call a female a harlot in the game.
  2. You're insulting & I think you think that I am talking down to you yet I'm not, I put out something I would like changed in the game because it's offensive even based on the current code of conduct, and you are saying this: " and attempt to amaze us with your genius." I won't engage with you past this comment as it's a passive aggressive insult. Have a good day.
  3. Before I spend a long time doing an educational piece on why it's not cool. Just asking you first based on this part of what you typed "It's a complaint that tells me nothing and doesn't even hint at what I can do to fix the problem." Are you a person that would be fixing this problem? and that is not to be disrespectful. That is literally me wondering if I need to spend a long time doing an educational piece about sex labor, detrimental wording, education on misogyny, and how patriarchal viewpoints contribute to crimes against sex labor workers. Which I will do if you are the person this needs to be addressed to, if it is not then I will leave it to the people who fix problems to determine whether they want to inquire further about this. Thanks
  4. "a woman who controlled shadows and dressed like a harlot," Edited for clarification: This was the mission it was in Emperor Cole's Personal Story (Solo Mission) Speak with Praetor Sinclair People - not cool.
  5. Probably because Paladin was in game before AE. Do they need police drones near the AE building? Hey Dev's maybe get rid of those police drones if they're not needed?
  6. I'd live in Atlas and work in Warburg as an ice cream vendor riding around in my little ice cream van feeding all the local citizens creating joy they'd stop me as I'm passing through in my little ice cream van where all my flavors are guaranteed to satisfy. Then I'd diversify into Siren's call and Bloody Bay. No desire to go into Recluse's Victory though they're just too cranky. When I hit retirement I'm going to sell balloons on Spanky's boardwalk in a rocking chair with a dog at my feet. Probably move to echo Galaxy City to a retirement community.
  7. While waiting in the HIVE for the raid to start and listening to some groovy music in the background, it occurred to me that it would be appealing to have the Devouring Earth who apparently like to gather in twos at minimum and stand in long lines, to engage in the a Chorus Line animation. Developers can you get on that? Thanks xoxo

  8. Or there's something doing the 'confuse' power on him?
  9. Hello, On the picture below what is "null"? Also is Clarion the only Destiny incarnate power that provides status protection?
  10. Hi - this was on Excelsior server last evening (early morning). I was on the Market Crash task force on my level 50 came out of the first mission and then used the teleport to mission power. I ended up under the map but had fly and could fly up and click the door and went into the mission right off. This is what it looked liked under the map, the door I entered is right above my character
  11. Hi in Atlas Park at this location [941.9 41.4 -1148.0] however, there are multiple locations around this area where citizens who are lying on the ground do the same thing. This is the one that spawns the quickest after defeating the hellion, there is a hellion guarding a citizen lying on the ground and they reappear quickly when defeated the citizen gets up and the slides across the ground it's legs doesn't move, (like a zombie) their knee caps aren't working. https://streamable.com/rlq15y Video of zombie like citizens.
  12. The tours of the bases were my favorite holy moly so much creativity 🙂 Thank you for showing for all of your videos and time.
  13. This goes to https://discord.com/invite/2QkPXjmD Is it meant to go to Discord? I thought it would be a you tube video.
  14. There's pervo comments on Excelsior, that have made about genitalia in group/team chats before and I warn them and if they continue I kick them from the team, in my opinion the majority of people don't want to hear what they're saying. The person then sent me a tell - saying it's a teen rated game and I said it's really not go read the EULA agreement on the forums. I then blocked them. As I read further on in the thread*** not from this one I am quoting I have this comment to anyone posting or visiting this thread - As a reminder (and an education if you haven't heard this before) it's not about the clothes/costume someone even your online big busted female character or muscle bound male character is wearing, we don't blame any perverts activity and targeting other people, on the people who are the recipient of their behavior we blame it on their (the pervs) active decision making skills to visit their perversion on others. Thanks
  15. Never noticed the winter zone and you all did a nice job in it, I like the comet, aurora borealis, the halo around the moon and your homages to your friends as well as the diversity to the holidays.
  16. Hello, On most ATs when you drag the power over to the chat box and drop it in, it gives you the name of the power and then you can click on it and it pops up with information about it. On a Psi melee attacks I have it doesn't do that, the name appears in the chat box but the power doesn't have the brackets nor is it clickable to get a description. This does this on my Psi Scrapper and Psi Tanker Thanks Example on a scrapper of what it isn't doing correctly and what it looks like. What it's supposed to have, these are other attacks I have on the same character.
  17. In an alignment mission in Atlas for vigilante, there is a Frostfire mission with a bunch of other characters, Sardonic, and Pyrelord are two of them - On Pyrelord on his bio/description it says "Eery" instead of eerie (or at least I believe is the word that was meant to be put there).
  18. Because in my brain Page 3 is turning into something, it is like the new version of "Freem" I made this.
  19. Or make a different exit from the zone as I have encountered a few times when I've had to click around a bit to find a way out of the zone because people zone in and then don't move.
  20. That link doesn't work or has been expired when I click on it, it takes me to a page that says that.
  21. I have just rolled a controller on the server, I am @Zappalina in game feel free to send me a global tell, I am usually on in the evenings for an hour or two sporadically though. Occasionally other times during the weekends.
  22. That looks like the ludo power - rocks are his friends 😄
