His rules for the roleplay aren't terrible at all, they're actually pretty half-decent and can cut down on some of the shittier roleplays that existed. The problem though is that it's Marioverse-only, which is kind of restricting for anyone that just wants to make a roleplay on anything else. That and Marioverse isn't very original and it's kind of really hard to make a unique character unless you have played all of the RPGs, else you'll just have a generic Toad or Yoshi, like I did.

"And you anti-femenists, you guys need to chill a bit, too. Hatred solved nothing, and neither do "Femenazis". (Women that try to be the more domanite gender, when fact is, there is none. We. Are. All. E Q U E A L.)" -MarioLuigiToadandToad

Except...that isn't about hatred as much as it exposes hypocrisy in said movement/subcultures through repeated debunking of myths feminists and feminazis perpetuates. That isn't hatred as to what antifeminists are doing. If anything, feminists, MRAs, and feminazis are the ones espousing hatred...

Also something to ask: Is it safe to say that there isn't a difference between third-wave feminists and feminazis? Because I believe there is no difference.

I think that banning Blue from participating in the RPs because he was a part of HSMBXC (when he hardly did anything) is overkill. He is a great RP participant and leader and I would like the staff to please xamine the good effect this could have for the RPs with a fresh mind.

I'm a feminist. I support the equal rights of all genders. I think that all genders should be respected as much as men are to this day. There is no difference between man and women other than private parts and internal body functions. Equal pay, equal thoughts, equal rights, equal everything. I also believe that a women has a say in what she should do with her body.

I don't however, support the ban of T-Shirts, Revealing clothing in Games and TV shows, and the hatred of men (I am a guy, after all), and..the aborting thing has two sides of the same coin.

Everything I said about what I don't support is what feminazi supports. A twisted feminist. If anything, Feminazi are hypocrites. Did you hear about the women who aborted their baby because it was a boy, and that she says and I quote, "I Aborted My Baby – Because it was a Boy". Want to know another thing? That is a fake story. But it is something a feminazi would do.

There is a fine line between both parties. Fact is, feminazis are awful, and it makes all Feminists look bad. Feminists are good people, and I wish everyone was a feminist. But we all can't have the same opinion, and I don't hate a person for not-that is what a feminazi would do.

Do you really believe in equal rights, or is that something you just like to say because it's nice and uncontroversial. For instance do you believe in "a woman's right to choose?" If so, how are women equal to men if they have one more right than them? How do you get away with saying you believe in equal rights, while saying it's women who get to choose to have a baby and a man has no right. If you were to say "he had the right to choose whether or not to get the women pregnant," that's not a satisfactory argument because a man and woman could agree to have a kid, but then things could change and either of them could change their mind and abridge the other's rights.
MarioLuigiToadAndToad wrote:I think that all genders should be respected as much as men are to this day.
Because men have it better, is that it? Men are getting all the affirmative action passes into colleges and universities? Men aren't automatically supposed to assume responsibility if a woman gets raped? Men's suicide rates aren't growing quickly? Men aren't the only ones who it is acceptable to label as sexist? Men are the only ones with people believing they were raped without evidence, and people think that's impossible to happen to a woman? Maybe it's the other way around, and this is because of social justice.

And sexual dimorphism, which establishes distinct biological differences between males and females in a species.
MarioLuigiToadAndToad wrote:Equal pay, equal thoughts, equal rights, equal everything.
Men are paid just as women. Equal thoughts is a terrifying concept. Women have equal rights in every modern western society.
MarioLuigiToadAndToad wrote:I also believe that a women has a say in what she should do with her body.
Ah, so you do buy into that "woman has a right to choose" garbage. Also I'm not even pro-life, but biologically speaking, the fetus has a body. It's not the woman's body, so what right does she have to abort it unless the fetus is illegitimate?

Even worse is that Blue and Raster never did any harm. Those who did were michel and pixels.

A lot of members tried to get him unbanned but the staff doesn't want that like seriously Blue didn't do anything.

I don't mind you opposing me as a staff member; I've certainly disliked staff members before.

I am curious though, what makes you say this? I don't really know you very well; what did I do that you seem to "know" about unlike GhostHawk? I'd like to improve or apologize however I can if you tell me what I did wrong.

I have the right to chop off my dick because EG didn't beat Secret at the international, but no woman has the right to chop off their dick for the same reason, i guess that means we're all condemned to eternal inequality.

You're misunderstanding. They're asking WHY you think that. And you haven't given a single reason so far..
