It is your problem because you have a problem with the other people's behaviour, or your lack of options to hide it from your precious eyes.
If it wasn't a problem you wouldn't be posting about it now would you?

EDIT:
Just to clarify, I don't have a problem with you wanting an option to censor your own experience of the game, as long as it doesn't have a negative impact on my enjoyment of the game, such as delaying release date, or being an enforced censorship.

On these 2 points I agree with you both. Lets stay there.

Both sides come out swinging and we have a double K.O..

Round 2 ends in a DRAW.

Personally I think Dreamsmith hit a home run with his post.

Ah now this is where the maturity level thing kicks in. "Let sleeping dogs lie." Only you and Dreamsmith think he hit a home run. I did the MATURE thing and didn't respond to Dreamsmith's flame.

Now start doing the mature thing and back off.

Hey guys I don't have a jealous wife but I do have a jealous girlfriend! She saw some of the people dancing and asked me what porno game I was playing. I just don't look at it, but my GF thinks that I should stop playing GW. I don't ask for any censorship or anything like that, but rather change the dances. If you want to run around in your underware that is cool but why not change the dances so it does not look like sexual behavior. That is all my GF really cares about and it seems that is the major concern that I have read about in this post. I just don't want to have a release date change or hinder someone else's game play. My two cents.

Loviatar · Mar 30, 2005, 06:04 PM // 18:04

actually i do have one more point to add to this before leaving it

obviously a few of you have serious reservations and problems with this aspect of the game

many points have been made of it being completely inappropriate for your children to view and your spouces are offended as yourselves

the ratings guide is made for PARENTS to be guided as to what to buy for their children to play with

to bring something into your house that you consider offensive and expose your children (and spouces) to it is something to consider thoughtfully

that is very similar in a way to buying a playboy magazine for an article(jimmy carter interview for example) and demanding the pictures be censored because you have high morals and disapprove

you have a responsibility to your morals not to bring it into the house instead of saying change it because it offends your standards

Kirbie · Mar 30, 2005, 07:13 PM // 19:13

im not sure if this is possible, but having naked option on or off would be nice...like gory mode on or off in first person shooter games.

if you put naked option off, then you see all people dressed with armour...although they are really naked. only people who put option on would be able to view.
for example...2 people are viewing one naked dancer. one person toggled the option off, and other on. the person who toggled it off would see naked dancer dressed with armour. but the person who toggled it on would see naked dancer...as is.

for suggestive dance...like warriors, having parameter would be nice...like no one would be able to do any emotes too close to dancing warrior. so if you wanna do emotes around dancing warrior, you have to do it few steps away from the warrior.

just to make everyone happy

some people may not feel comfortable viewing it...but im sure there are people who have no problems with it too

Ren Falconhand · Mar 30, 2005, 07:24 PM // 19:24

I don't think an option like that will make the release (it is less that a month away YEA!!!

) But maby it could be a patch or something like that if A-net does not do patches. Anyway I do not want them to delay the relase. It would not be fair to the other players out there you do not have any problems with it. Any way all the naked dancing is mainly just a BWE thing. It will most likely slow down once the game launches.

Actually I thought Dreamsmith's post was interesting and hardly a flame. Just because someone has a different opinion than you it doesn't mean they are flaming you.

yeah...i can handle viewing those..even though i may not be too comfortable.
"but" i can not handle delayed release date lol

Dave III · Mar 30, 2005, 08:10 PM // 20:10

I think letting this subject- or at least this thread, and the bad feelings in it- drop is a very good idea. I think we all know we're not going to change the other's opinions, especially with flaming (which is where this is headed), so if we back off and let it settle, we may be able to address it more rationally later.

We all know that's way too late for major code changes (which the filters, as I have them in my head, would involve), and so this discussion is moot on a practical level, at least for now. In the future we might be able to work something out between us to everyone's satisfaction, but as things stand we risk tearing this community apart. Nobody wants that.

Let's just let it go, the other thread included, and work on other things for a while, yeah? ^_^
