Then why 10 years ago everyone would just laugh at these petty actions. I'm only noticing people getting bothered by everything these past couple years. Especially here in North America. It's going backwards here and people are sensitive to everything. I miss working in Europe sometimes. People there don't care about stupid crap, laugh and just live their lives as best they can.
It has been said by some that people laughed 10 years ago because they were not enlightened. Same for women's suffrage, etc.
How can you even compare woman’s suffrage to a video game unless you are of course trolling.
This game at its core has slavery built in, oppression of certain races and imperialism with races going on conquests to take over lands and enforce its ideas, laws and beliefs and others.
You seem to want to compare in game actions of players to real life actions/feelings but all of these in real life are deemed highly offensive and wrong/illegal yet you still play the game and take no offensive at these parts?

You mentioned in previous post about banning people over white robes...you do realize ZoS allows us to play AD, an alliance filled with racial supremacists, right? Even Aryenn with her selective racism, having announced she would rather have an elven infant on throne than a human.
Also, comparing past human rights issues to t bagging in a virtual world is total nonsense.
Honestly people, teabagging may be immature but people find it humourous. FYI humour is generally immature. And I'm tired, absolutely tired of moral superiority being given to someone just because they say "i'm offended". Want to tell teabaggers to grow up? Do so, but also tell the snowflakes who want to live in a safe space in a virtual world to grow up too.

Oh, I do. Sexual assault is not a joking matter, though. Just look in the news for how big of an issue it is. It's not a snowflake movement.

No, DieAlteHexe hasn't, truth be told. Politeness and kindness are unfortunately going the way of the dinosaur for some.
I think that swords should be removed from the game because I once got a splinter, and thinking about pointy objects makes me remember the pain I felt from that splinter. I really think that anyone who still uses a sword in this game should be banned, because it makes me, in my completely unrelated situation, feel bad. You don’t think splinters are an issue now, but I guarantee that swords will be removed from eso once people realize that splinters are not a joking matter!

But using sexual assault to bash an in-game mechanic that doesn’t actually have anything to do with sexual assault *is* a snowflake moment. This whole thread is ridiculous.
Here, let me try out your logic: I think that swords should be removed from the game because I once got a splinter, and thinking about pointy objects makes me remember the pain I felt from that splinter. I really think that anyone who still uses a sword in this game should be banned, because it makes me, in my completely unrelated situation, feel bad.

You can advocate politeness and kindness, but once you cross the line by forcing politeness and kindness, then you have become authoritarian.

Is there a #metoo movement for splinters? Eh, don't think so. Not nearly as big of an issue as sexual assault.

#metoo movement ignores due diligence but thats an unrelated topic. Teabagging is not sexual assault and therefor has nothing to do with #metoo.

I wasnt talking about DieAlteHexe. ToS dont force players to be kind and polite. If they did, ESO would collapse as most players would be banned, and few would want to play this game.

Hands hurt people in real life, so all hands should be banned in a made-up fantasy video game. Make it happen ZoS!

I would advise you not to get too close to any open flames with that argument.

Just following the argument that hurtful things should be banned to a logical end.

The premise behind the entire argument is debatable, which is why this thread has gotten so much attention.
