I have this rule. If you replace the word in a phrase from a minority to a majority, and then it sounds like a silly or bad idea, then it doesn't make sense to do.
For example straight pride parade instead of gay pride parade, or white history month instead of black history month.
Or in this case, heterosexual chat channel instead of LGBT chat channel. Well at least inside a video game.
I'm not knocking people different than me, but equality and common sense goes both ways. This isn't needed.
There are plenty of chat rooms for this that you could easily have open while mining or something. If it was a support group or something for people looking for people to talk to that are going through a rough time i could see it. But just to BS and share pictures? |

I wonder if in internet spaces and forums specifically designed and created for non heterosexual people to discuss their sexuality they they congregate in little cliques to discuss video games...... |

No. Not really.
Look at what these God damned hetros have accomplished so far. Massive overpopulation (Seven billion of them...yikes!), constant hetro fueled marketing by our corporate oligarchs causing runaway spending on personal hygiene products, and the destruction of any number of local bar rooms as drunken sailors decide to fight over the same girl.
No. Hetros had their chance... and failed. Time for a change.

^ ^its a chat room to share pictures of attractive guys, clarify the purpose, and to just talk, there are straight channels lol
You're either trolling me or you perhaps take it a bit too serious :) At the end of the day, it's a chatchannel from an interest group in a Computergame. Not more, not less.
Hmm, I have an ex army mate who is Transgender, went the whole way from male to female, she ain't Lesbian/Gay/Bisexual and she hates being grouped with them.
As for the op, any one heard of the dark web? apparently PS2 and Xbox etc play a big part in the distribution network of, erm, illegal pictures shall we say, and where else would be better to hide that than within a game?
It might not be that, but the whole picture swapping thing smacks of setting up a network. But then again it's out in the open, so it could all be innocent.
Either way EVE isn't the place for this, sorry.
And before anyone even thinks about the homophobia line, I have both male and female gay friends. |

He also seems unaware that Goons have an LGBT sig, perhaps he should voice his concerns to them as well.

Before I get started. My girlfriend lives with me and we plan to get married. She was born in Trinidad and is black.
I find something like black history month as sort of a reverse racism thing. People would be up in arms over a white history month. It's another form of segregation when we are supposed to be equal. We can't have true equality until it's just "history month" so to speak. Black history month isn't about how we overcame slavery, it's about all the black people that contributed to society over the years as if they need special mention just because they where Black. The only thing I know about the guy who invented penute butter is that he was black. Why does it matter what color he was? What color someone's skin is shouldn't matter to us anymore then what color there hair is. Why do people constantly feel the need to segregate and remind everyone and think that it matters somehow. Race specific things should not exist at all, in any form.

I'm a guy who likes sex with attractive females, is there a channel for me with pictures of hot chicks? Can I come to your channel and check out the female pics? Will you discriminate against me due to my love of boobs while having a penis?

I personally would rather everyone just STFU about it so no arguments like that has to be made. I play a game to play a game, not hear who like to be with or without what. |

No such thing. There is racism. Period.
Reverse racism is a term that is the product white privilege and the underlying concept that white is the norm and anything else is somehow less important.
Sad to see this ideology is still as common as it is.

I actually agree with that. The only reason I ever use the phrase is so less open minded people know WTF I'm talking about.
But if something is about race, then it's racist. Doesn't matter wich way it goes. Race shouldn't ever be part of the topic at hand. Well unles you and your wife are the same color and she just had a baby that comes no where near to matching lol but thays another story.
Same goes with the whole LGBT thing. Besides being a way to braid grouping of people, the need for classification is pointless. I also like the point the one person made about how he likes boobies, so why wouldn't he be able to post pics of boobies in a lesbian channel. It should be a boobie channel not a lesbian channel. Another reason a LGBT channel makes no sense. Tjeres both people that like men and women there same as if it where a straight channel. As for the transgender part... The same. So why would it exist? |

I don't actively seek out porn when playing EVE, odd as that may seem. I had to look really hard, but porn does seem to exist outside of EVE. And it even works with the client closed, how about that?

I won't even go into how much I feel like an imposter trying to be part of these groups due to my aforementioned romantic preferences. I figure to them I might as well be just another straight guy. |

Sad to see this ideology is still as common as it is. Mr Epeen Most people seem to mean "reverse racism" as in racism against white people (and you'd be surprised how many people will vehemently deny that it exists), but W33b3l seems to mean "benevolent racism".
Regardless, racism doesn't have a standard "direction" and even if your intentions are good discriminating on the basis of race is still racism. It's the same with sexism, by the way. There's a huge amount of institutionalized sexism against men in Western countries and it's hidden in plain sight. Most men are aware of at least a few disadvantages they face on the basis of their gender, but we don't really have a massive social movement that helps us to connect the dots.
Please forgive my rambling, by the way. I've been awake for about 20 hours and spent maybe 16 of those coding more or less nonstop. |

Also.. Depending on what type of stuff you are sharing or linking in an in game channel, it could be against the EULA. If we are talking dirty pictures and it was reported, you could face a possible ban. Best to do that elswhere. |
