Was hoping ZOS posted in this thread to mention this possible emote.
I really hate clicking ZOS icon to just see "we have recently removed posts" each time.

All of those things add pollution to the air which causes more cancer and sickness than any cigarettes can.
Also...there isn't one actual case of second hand smoke causing cancer..if you truly look at the da6a..it's only PRESUMED and not hard data. There are plenty of counter studies to show second hand smoke as harmless and the likely cause of the lung cancer is pollution..seeing as many people get lung cancer who are never around smokers.
Cancer is not the only sickness caused by smoking, darling. There's pulmonary emphysema, air tract infections, asthma flare-ups, cardiovascular diseases, low birth weight in newborns, just to mention some. And your attempt to disregard my previuos comment still has no value since smokers do that too besides pestering the air with their arsenic-laced breath.

But keep trying to justify that habit and hide the fact that smoking is quite annoying and health risking for others, otherwhise we wouldn't need to have isolated smoking spaces in restaurants, and ban smoking in many places like hospitals, schools and government buildings.

Yeah, lets encourage all the younger kids who play the game to smoke tobacco or maryjane or dope or whatever the imagination can come up with. I know this is a game but for the same reason you can't advertise cigarettes on tv here in America lets also not encourage smoking in game.
And before people laugh about it just being a game, keep in mind the amount of people who lost loved ones in REAL life to smoking related diseases...

Meh, though I highly dislike smoking, I don't see a big deal to have it on a videogame. It's not like I have to deal with their disgusting smoke, and their body stench, like irl.
There's a part of me that wants to be against it cause i hate smoking and can't stand people that do it, but i just don't care anymore. I'm no gaming saint, I've gotten my hands dirty in Grand Theft Auto before. I've waterboarded an innocent with gasoline, kidnapped a crime bosses daughter, picked up girls working the streets only to run them over after they were done and got out just so I could get the cash they dropped.
If people want to puff the magic dragon in a video game, who am i to say no.

article you linked wrote:"No Clear Link Between Passive Smoking and Lung Cancer"{...}
"Passive smoking has many downstream health effects—asthma, upper respiratory infections, other pulmonary diseases, cardiovascular disease—but only borderline increased risk of lung cancer"

You do realize that second hand smoke is just a theory, and a widely discredited at that?
Plus, I dont smoke indoors, I dont like that myself. But if youre referring to outside, then the answer is "get over it"!
