I think it's brilliant, not letting certain people be treated as dirt purely because of how they were born. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Among the possible issues for discussion between CEDAW and a delegation from the Japanese Government are: Banning the sale of video games or cartoons involving sexual violence against women;" If you truly support this, I don't think we have much to discuss.

I think it's brilliant, not letting certain people be treated as dirt purely because of how they were born.FTR, I don't neccesarily disagree with you (haven't fully read the article to know where japan is/where they want it to go), but you need to stop misusing the word briliant or similar terms. Each time I see you use it, it's stupidly hyperbolic. For example, here. Brilliant is generally a term reserved for someone coming up with a new/revolutionary idea. Or, it's used sarcastically to state the opposite. You use it in place of "good" or "fine", which really does not work. It makes it seem like you're overglorifying a given idea or attempt when it doesn't deserve such. Using speech like that causes people to find you either uneducated or haughty, depending on the situation where you misused a word of that ilk. I'm not trying to pick a fight, just hoping that, by improving your diction, you could make your posts could come across in a much better manner.Oh, I read the link but I still don't see how that's a bad thing.I assume Eromanga and Games is the reasoning as to why that's bad.

Tentacruel Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 Eh, that bit is a bit censorship-heavy, but the rest seems quite welcome. Also I don't really see the need for cartoon rape games, but that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good and fine are both OK words, but they don't quite express how amazing I think the UN is for doing things like this. Please stop assuming that I mean something that I didn't say. You say I may sound uneducated, yet I have actually been educated. This is in contrast to a great many people around the world, who the brilliant UN are trying to help. As for haughty... having a problem with such a trivial subject as someone's choice of words makes you sound rather stuck up your own anus as well. Good day. You didn't read the link did you? "Among the possible issues for discussion between CEDAW and a delegation from the Japanese Government are: Banning the sale of video games or cartoons involving sexual violence against women;" If you truly support this, I don't think we have much to discuss.Well, that was the part that I was kinda iffy on. But I suppose if they mean those games where you can go around raping people... I just don't see any need for those games to exist. I don't really have a problem with them banning those sorts of games, but I don't particularly see it preventing any problems either. As for cartoons, I don't really know or care much about cartoons, so whether they are banned or not doesn't really matter that much to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I stepped out of my way to tell you how to make your points come across better without being ugly, and you act like that? This site never fails to astound me. Also til sounding uneducated means you must be uneducated, and I clearly was implying you're an uncultured swine and not saying you could do better. Grow up.

.Rai Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 Keep it civil, you two. I think brilliant was fine, any step towards maintaining good progress for equal rights is something to celebrate. I don't think was formal enough a discussion to be debating the usage of someone's emphatic language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See the issue? Censorship should never be tolerated especially if it is something like cartoons or video games. This comes right after the UN's disastrous Online Harassment debacle, and the fallout of anti-Japanese sentiment from prominent SJW journalists, this entire thing reeks of utter crap. Tin foil hat or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 Censorship is often dumb, but....I don't see the point in getting up and arms about...censoring games where you rape people, from what it sounds like?

ENMaker Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 The thing is that their meaning of sexual violence against women is not specified, and that shite in Australia getting GTA banned for "encouraging violence against women", when anyone who has played it knows that's not even a thing, makes me wary of this kind of wording.

~ P O L A R I S ~ Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 The first thing i done on this game was kill some hookers :DGTA 5 is amazing GTA is stupid at best. Rape, lolicon, and guro are totally unnecessary in hentai, most of which contains rape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just, we need to know what they mean before we can say if it's really bad or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~ P O L A R I S ~ Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 This is what gets me about GTA, people acting like it's a funking masterpiece when it's essentially The Sims except the physics only allow for douchebaggery and disregard for human life.

.Rai Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I've always thought GTA was a rather good satire of the American dream. Whether it's successful satire, considering that most people play it gratuitously, is up to interpretation. I think it was definitely made with the intent of satire: it's everywhere in the game, and is developed from the perspective of a bunch of Scots.

It would be great if GTA were actually not real, then nobody would waste their time and money on such a horseshit game and hype it up as if it's a godsend. Unfortunately that's not the case.
