You just don't get it, do you? :lol:

There is no rational explanation for posting the things you've posted on this forum. "Engaging people?" What the fuck?! People jerk you around on a forum so you give them voice clips and nudie photos? This is the behavior of a socially clueless, unpopular and insecure teenaged girl, not of an adult.
Did I ever claim that I'm above reproach, much less *fully rational* in my behavior?

Also, yeah I was in my early 20s when the nude photos were posted, not that it excuses it but I've said more than once that it was stupid and a mistake. I wouldn't repeat that as the person that I am today.

The voice clip was posted not in response to an attack but because we were all sharing our accents and I just wanted to participate on the same equal footing as everybody else. I just remembered that it was here and there was an example to the contrary of what he was saying, and so I cited it.

I also don't see how it's some sort of shocking revelation to expose somebody in my position as insecure.

So an irrational little girl is threatening to basically rat the Codex out to Obsidian if her feelings are hurt.
Well that's wonderful.

I don't see how it's 'ratting out the Codex' to defend my own interests, particularly the use of my identity in a manner that I don't agree with. How many people can you think of who will freely let that sort of thing be used in a copyrighted work without their permission? Are they all irrational little girls? It's not like I can *stop* the portrayal if Obsidian feels that it's legit, and I'm certain that they will give some strong preference to the person who made the donation should it appear that my concern is misplaced.

In 19 days, when the Kickstarter ends and the Codex fundraiser has come and gone without success, this thread ought to be Retardo'd.

Just cause a thread has a bunch of wall of text arguments talking about trannies that are a derailment from the original topic doesn't mean this is worthy of a sticky. It needs make a significant contribution to Codexian mythology. For example, DU could let it slip that the Prosper here isn't the real prosper but an alt created by DU to amuse himself. Or that Kaiserin likes raisins.

Cleve's case is truly unique comedy gold. Andhaira's case as well, is very much wrapped up in the specific individual involved.
And, with everything you've posted, so is yours and SMA's - as valid as any portrayal of anyone else on this forum. Welcome to the Kodex Komedy Klub™.

Please tell me how that is inaccurate - because that's the real issue here for you, isn't it?
I uh, don't know where you got the idea that my issue had to do with inaccuracy.
So, just to re-cap: I make an entirely accurate representation of a transexual.

Kaiserin says this is:
  • Portraying trannies as "so darned gross and silly!". [1]
  • Deals entirely in stereotypes. [2]
  • Is another tasteless and utterly derivative joke. [3]
  • Offering a presentation that makes her appear to be a clown. [4]
  • Offensive. [5]
  • yet another sterling example of ridicule leveled toward transgender people. [6]
  • [depicts them] in a manner which is shocking. [7]
  • And: I definitely will voice my concern over how we are depicted if it does come to that. [8]
And then she says she doesn't have an issue with this at all and is merely having a conversation.

Riiiight.

Because you've made this, once again, all about you. Right from your very first post.
Right, let's break down that very first post since you seem to have had an issue parsing it:
Me said:
"Ya know, at first I was butthurt
You said:
You said you were butthurt about not being included, so I modified the character to include references to yourself.
Usually when people say, 'at first,' that's an indication that they no longer hold that attitude.
But it's an indication that they did hold that attitude at one time. And I have to say, your attitude has changed in every other post you've made in this thread.

Those changes included adding "Kaiser" (your name),
That's not how I spell my handle.
:roll: "The Cleaver" isn't Cleve's real handle either. It's a reference only. In fact Cleve prides himself on not hiding behind internet anonymity, so he's probably even offended by it.

And yet again, you've had a go at me for making literal interpretations of what you say, and yet then turn around and do exactly that to me. Is it really so hard to grasp that I clearly meant "It's a reference to your name"?

changing the outfit specifically to a "dress",
How is that directly referential to me again?
From memory, I thought your photo's were of you in a dress.

Apparently all this makes the character look "clownish".
Those changes specifically? Not really no, I was just incensed that you decided to involve me in a character design I had just expressed a desire to not be a part of and was speaking out of a generalized sense of anger.
Ahh... So now this is all because just had a moment of "generalized sense of anger".

Well, cool. It's great to know that you've sorted out where you sit on this, and are now perfectly comfortable with the proposed - and accurate - portayal of a transexual in the game.

Only one guy claims to have titanium bones, only one guy came up with rat diplomacy...

...many trannies have appeared in porno.

So, just to re-cap: I make an entirely accurate representation of a transexual.
That's not able to be deduced from my comment, as I simply said that wasn't of primary concern.
Riiiight.
Wrong, I never said I didn't care or that I don't have an issue. I care and I've never said otherwise.

But it's an indication that they did hold that attitude at one time. And I have to say, your attitude has changed in every other post you've made in this thread.
On that point, which is my central affirmation by the way, it's remained consistent. I don't want to be involved in this, but that's obvious by now and you're just being disingenuous.
And yet again, you've had a go at me for making literal interpretations of what you say, and yet then turn around and do exactly that to me. Is it really so hard to grasp that I clearly meant "It's a reference to your name"?
I think you chose to spell it that way for a reason that's clear to both of us. So no, I'm not interpreting your statement literally so much as it's obvious that you named a putatively transgender character a masculine form of a word to get me in a bunch.

From memory, I thought your photo's were of you in a dress.
I recall posting pictures in pajamas, a hoodie, and naked, but not ever in a dress.

Ahh... So now this is all because just had a moment of "generalized sense of anger".
I'm not sure where the 'just' comes in, as if though I am using the fact that I was pissed to somehow lend credit to what I said or convey that I'm not emotionally involved or sincere about what I said. If anything, it's unabashedly admitting that I'm quite incensed by your attitude and comments.
Well, cool. It's great to know that you've sorted out where you sit on this, and are now perfectly comfortable with the proposed - and accurate - portayal of a transexual in the game.
No, it still disgusts me. I never said otherwise honestly, you just somehow took that form what I was saying in spite of several explicit statements contrary to that conclusion.

I don't think that you are doing her any sort of justice with this portrayal.

The sad thing IMO is, that Kaiserin doesnt realize that the more she argues with DU and exchanges Walls of textes tje more possible it becomes that this will be sent to Obsidian. If no one would have reacted to that "Tranny Character" suggestion, everyone would have shrugged it off and move on.

And yet, earlier:

DarkUnderlord said:
That's nice. This reference is not about all trannies. So any other tranny and his or her experiences are entirely irrelevent. Which begs the question: Why did you raise any concern at all?
I didn't raise concern, I expressed relief that I wasn't going to be involved.

con·cern   [kuhn-surn] Show IPA
verb (used with object)
1. to relate to; be connected with; be of interest or importance to; affect: The water shortage concerns us all.
2. to interest or engage (used reflexively or in the passive, often followed by with or in ): She concerns herself with every aspect of the business.
3. to trouble, worry, or disquiet: I am concerned about his health

noun
4. something that relates or pertains to a person; business; affair: Law is the concern of lawyers.
5. a matter that engages a person's attention, interest, or care, or that affects a person's welfare or happiness: The party was no concern of his.

:hmmm:

Didn't you know?At Obsidian they are all Pinko Commie PC Nazis, and this is why some people not only won't pledge but won't buy the game after release either, don't bother, if you will be forced to complain to Obsidian they will listen to you, if all because the backlash will give them heaps of troubles.

Would throwing a tremendous tantrum help me get more votes too, I wonder? The top candidates uniformly seem like bland boring shit, so this would certainly be an improvement.

Mission....accomplished.

Kaserins face as she is reading this right now.... :troll:

To think, the very Codex that goes a herpa derp over homosexual elves in faggot age is now pining for tranny's in their dream rpg.

dgaider is pleased.

I'm entirely aware that I'm provoking that sort of action out of the Codex.

The thing is that I also think it's worth demonstrating that even in the face of being provoked, you can't just roll roughshod over whoever the hell you want just for the hell of doing it.
