I'm gonna shut it down right there.
I will not argue about LGTB rights in this forum.
Forgive me for bringing it up.

Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. Etc. etc.

Now....... I think we need to discuss how to make spiders more versatile pets, 'cause that sound they make on the attack. hsss'skkkkk. Is AWESOME.

....hsss'ksssss.... shikk'ksssss.... You all know what I'm talking about, right?

I do! I've heard it non-stop for the past 25 UD Strat runs trying to get that blasted mount. (/shakefist) It's quite cute. Actually, when I'm running I'll turn the camera to watch my little girl running behind me, and just the way they run is so horribly adorable!!! And their footsteps seem so deliberate, if you watch. They're so CUUUUUTE!!! =3

There needs to be some way to bring awareness to the fairly pervasive intolerance and misunderstanding of the LGBT community within the game. It's, frankly, disgusting.


Bwahahahahahaha, I read LGBT as LFGBT.... I was like, Looking For Group Black Temple? Wth O_o why would people have intolerance and misunderstanding of Black Temple.... Just go look up a strat or something...

I crack myself up sometimes when I have brain fart moments... anyway...
even if there was a 'real' gay pride critter in the game, rainbows and triangles all about, I'd tap that


This will never, ever, ever, ever happen, Blizz has and will avoid any politically charged game data at all costs. Sure they will have their Easter Eggs, but as for actually inputting a gay, sexist, racist, or real world minority character or reference, it's a "DANGER DO NOT ENTER" zone, and frankly its a safe card to play.

That and as racist comedians and Big Brother should show- it's only fun to be racist when it's ['Minority'] bashing [Majority aka White Man] or for Big Brother, just saw a woman 'admit' tp being a lesbian to a homosexual- ignore the fact she tried to claim she was shy and all that when she ADMITED IT TWICE ON NATIONAL TELEVISION.

The way i see it is the fact that using a purple spider doesn't mean u'r gay. But gay people will be more likely to like this skin. But there are plenty of (i won't say normal because that truly would be discriminating) non-gay people who love the skin. (like me) There is nothing wrong with being gay. I for example got a nice uncle who is gay. I'm hoping we can stop this discussion about being gay now.

Ok look - the fact that a hunter pet shares the colors of the gay pride community or whatever is a complete non-issue... or should be; I mean think about it - tons and tons of male wow players play female toons and yet no one gives them crap about it, so why would anyone give an ant's fart about having a purple spider?

But besides that, it is nice to see this skin tamable.
Well which is it hm? Is it an exoskeleton or a skin? Make up your mind! :p

I can't believe this is still going on...

I am pretty sure he (or she) didn't mean ANYTHING anti-gay (or pro-gay) when the color was brought up being the "gay pride" color.

So we have a lot of people here who take this WAY too seriously.

I hope am not adding fuel to the fire, but I believe all colors were only colors before becoming associated with anything else.

I need more hunters, IMO.

:? I'm not going to touch most of the topic, but....


It's a very pretty colored spider and it's always nice to have more options for pets people enjoy. :D

I shall simply leave it at that. ;)
