In post 85, Ythan wrote:Honestly I'd be in favor of this change even without the problems with the current term. Bomber really is just a variant of vig and defining it with a modifier, which might also be fun with other roles too, is just a good game design move I think.
Applies here too

A PGO is a Reflexive Vigilante, I managed to think of a replacement for the exact role itself.

pedit: Reflexive is a modifier I like, PGO (the role) not so much.

Well there might be none. We have no way of knowing though. Reasonable to assume that this doesn't offend 99.99% of people playing or browsing on this site.

I'm not dismissive, I'm just voicing my disagreement with this (and the previous thread's) proposed changes. It just smells like fixing things that aren't broken because while "lynch" can offend people I doubt "insane" or "suicide" do. Like even the most depressive person I know doesn't suddenly want to kill himself upon reading the word "suicide".

No you're actually wrong I just cross quoted from an entire existing thread addressing these same concerns you are indeed being dismissive of.

Oh you edited your post after I responded to it I see.

Lots of people have been disagreeing about a variety of matters in both threads but you are being dismissive as well.

Sorry I'm just kinda annoyed by this because I see it as a waste of effort for reasons I explained and also it's a slippery slope.

Would you support getting rid of the term "kill" because death could trigger some people?

So we shouldn't have discussions like this because you're triggered but nobody else matters? Yeah fuck off.

Read my posts. Since I don't think this triggers basically
anyone
I don't support this change. That's all.

I would have supported changing "lynch" but it was before my time.

This site has twenty years of history before your time which is probably a big part of why you're so ill equipped for this conversation.

Care to give any sort of counterarguments for that instead of ad hominems?

Yes I did and I just don't agree with the premise. Can you answer this question though?

We shouldn't use roles because bad mechanical role play could offend the good name of the real life cops, doctors, bus drivers etc.

We shouldnt use masons and masonizers because secret societies might feel offended.

We shouldnt call people scum because well some players dont realize that mafia is a bubble where we are allowed to call each other scum without it being a personal attack.
Don’t forget how Mafia terminology blasphemes the honourable profession janitor. Hell, ban the term “mafia” altogether and substitute it with “rat race” “life” or “reindeer games”. :P
Oh good lord, poor janitors being depicted as dead body cleaners! We demand that janitors are changed to forensic pathologists!

I don't feel strongly either way, but I think this is a worthwhile discussion especially with the importance of things like mental health. I'm a little dismayed at how dismissive some people are being here.

I'm in oversimplified terms an insane person and im not offended by the terms. My feelings and/or mental condition have no right to end people's right of freedom of speech.
