Can we make the AI on kidnap missions less of a hassle?

 

I dont expect them to have super speed or keep up like MM pets for lore purposes but I shouldn’t have to move like a turtle stuck in peanut butter while escorting them out either.

 

This should be a relatively easy fix. 

 

Thank you.

Can we not call things a slur for the neurodivergent? Thanks.

 

Anyway, there's a thread already on this here: 

 

Appreciate the info. 

 

And no, that’s the way I talk. But you’re welcome to ask for clarity if something I say is questionable .

Well, "the way you talk" trivializes and demeans actual people who already get trivialized and demeaned often enough.

Or just don’t be overy sensitive about  figures of speech. What’s next, someone complains I took the lords name in vain on the topic title?

 Those aren't even remotely comparable. Taking the lord's name in vain doesn't perpetuate a stigma against the disabled.

Try telling a Christian that. The point is, is that what you find or others might find  offensive is subjective. And until I provide clarity of my intent you can only assume. And we all know how that saying  goes.

 

Imagine coming to coh forums and purposely deviating from the topic and instead digging for something to be offended about.

.... with slurs.  And you're actually proud of it.

 

"Retarded" isn't really any better than racial slurs like any of these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_slurs

Asking you not to use a word that's been routinely used in living memory as both a term for a group of people and as an insult, aka a slur, is not 'virtue signaling'. There's no one here any of us are interested in impressing. It's asking for some decency and respect for those are different and routinely trodden upon.

I wish you well in your endeavors.

It's one thing to have a slip of the fingers and use a word that you haven't thought about the implications of, but it's another to dig your heels in and get angry at the people telling you what it actually means.

 

Thread closed, and in the future please use descriptive titles.
