Ahh yes. I should have responded to this sooner from the quickly responses.Renegade_Turner wrote:I wanted to leave the reply, but I felt it wasn't completely necessary. I was aplogosing to whoever felt I was taking it on a step too far. I felt some accusations against me were a bit unfair.
I apologize too for anything rude, and messed up to you. There was really no point for me posting something harsh and defensive like that, a more apologetic and agreeing response should have been given instead. My bad.
Edit: smalled off my post so you can't read it, it's still there in case some one wants to follow along to what we're talking about. Don't want to destroy the holy records.

Why is that "too bad"?Lugaruman100 wrote:Too bad most people don't follow those rules on this forum.David wrote:It is, in fact, possible to discuss sex appeal in Lugaru in a mature and respectful way, and that is not happening in this thread.
5. Please keep the conversation above 2nd grade level, basic spelling and grammar are appreciated, and do not over use caps.
7. Be polite. do not post anything defiling, e.g. swears, ethnic slurs, etc.
Keep in mind that there are children here.
I may be alone in this - but I genuinely think its sad that violence is considered more acceptable material for entertainment than sex.
Just ask yourselves - does that really make any sense at all?
Personally it makes me quite angry when I see peoples knee-jerk reactions because people immediately think that sex has to be tacky and cheap...
Sex doesn't have to be Porn. Just as we all know that violence can be acceptatble in a game I don't understand why allowing sex (in a tastful manner - with the same maturity we expect David and the team to treat the violent side of the game) couldn't or even shouldn't be a small part of the world.
It has to happen, and I think that Turner finding a new lover would be exactly the kind of healing he would need (although it might not work or even cause more troubles).
Anyway.
Just my opinion, but I think people should actually consider things before they dismiss them.

thanks for you're 2 cents...tallyl.iii wrote:I agree completely with GaGrin. I think that the the sexual element should be there but not obvious or crude. Turner having a lover would be interesting but would, in my opinion, divert one's focus from the combat a bit too much. Anyways. . . that's just my 2¢
(2 cents after a lot of time and interest Put into a bank can Serve you well as $50)
Might i ask... How much would each personal Individual Class as too much in the way of Sexual Elements?
I say that Showing the Pubic Parts in a detailed way is Inappropriate for this game. How Ever they are Rabbits and there should be some way of Celebrating there Trade mark. and may i add... i Recall some on on this thread said if you want sex in the game that bad go play the sims Games. They keep the Element of that there and make Blurs so that you don't see the persons bits. However i Imagine that that would be covered by fur.
Let us do remember its up to the Developer what in it and up to us wether we play it. David makes the call for what is Content.
Sex does not help to remove inhibitions towards violence that effect military recruitment. That, and it's a shameful and unnatural act. In nooooo way whatsoever is sex the natural way of things...GaGrin wrote:I may be alone in this - but I genuinely think its sad that violence is considered more acceptable material for entertainment than sex.
