The online game runescape 2007 will feature a sausage festival. People are not amused.

More salt to be mined than tin ore in Lumbridge

You can't mine tin ore in Lumbridge noob

You can in Lumbridge Swamp

Did you know they knocked out the wall in the graveyard for easy access to the swamps?

>I am no homophobe so please let me have an opinion.

>i just really hate being reminded gays exist

dae being gay is the same as being part of a political party

Well... people like peter thiel aren't gay he just is a "man who has sex with men" due to his political views

Honestly so many comments like this like do they ever think about the LGBT people playing the game who might actually appreciate seeing something like this instead of getting massively buttmad over some pixels

wtf are we being invaded by srdines? Nigga where's my straight party month on rs??

Sorry I'm just filling my agenda post quota for CTR

Ay let me get in on some of those shekels - I'm over gettin buttmad about pixels for free

SRD OUT REEEEE

I'm here for you with some drama eyebleach:

Kys

At least tag me if you want to argue that my opinion is wrong.

I do not hate being reminded that gay people exist.

My only problem is gay pride being made into a HOLIDAY EVENT for a game I spent my spare time on - by the only gay jmod who just started. RS has existed for close to 20 years. This is the first gay pride event. You do the math.

I don't know what games you play, or if you play games at all, but you don't find gay/straight/transgender/whateverpolitics events in any other game.

It's only added to runescape because a gay jmod just started and he wants to feel extra special. Don't turn this into something it's not. And it's not about gay people. It's about that jmod pissing everyone off.

Nigger literally who cares? You're the only one making it political. Some faggot put an inconsequential non-event in the game and you're severely bussy-blasted because for some reason you're terribly threatened by fags.

Na that's not it. Feel free to try again tho

I ain't askin fam. I'm stating the obvious.

This is the actual truth no matter what lies you say.

A literal gay pride parade isn't political

Imagine being this retarded

you don't find gay/straight/transgender/whateverpolitics events in any other game

This is factually wrong.

I think you just have to realize that all MMOs eventually turn to shit and you have to move on to another one that is still acceptable, that's how the industry works.

Wether agressive monetization, gameplay changes or disagreeing with your strong political opinions is your tipping point is only a sidenote.

dude hes playing runescape in 2017. do you think he knows how to move on

you don't find gay/straight/transgender/whateverpolitics events in any other game.

you do tho, in tons of games. most people just don't care because they're normal, not oversensitive freaks who get their panties in a twist over bullshit like a gay event

also being gay isn't political

also being gay isn't political

everything is political tho fam

If being gay isn’t political then why do I have a dildo with "BENGAZHI" written on it in permanent marker?

Because you like getting fucked by Arabs. That's a fetish not political.

Which games?

p sure the first ME let you lez out, Overwatch is gay af

I guess I was thinking less gay character in a story and more specifically gay events in a game.

idk femshep gettin physical with that asari was a pretty gay event

Imagine being this mad.

MUH VIDEO GAMES REEEEE

I play osrs and love the event just because you can't keep with modern views and times doesn't mean you have to drag everyone down with you. πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸ˜˜

Here, have an L.

just cause the games 10 years old doesnt mean you have to act that old

This is the softest burn I've ever received. What even is this sub.

Then don't waste your life away on a literal retard corporate product

How should I waste my life away then?

Not playing a skill-devoid game 10 years past its prime

Maybe go read some books or go meet people in real life or make video games of your own

This game is addicting but it's also trash. I say that as an on again off again player

I enjoy the cycle of realizing it's a grind and nothing else, quitting for a few months, then getting sucked back in.

I'm a straight dude, I play league, cs, and cod, and the occasional overwatch and then single player games. If they added any event for LGBTs or just normalized gay relationships/characters it wouldn't bother me (as long as long as it's done right). I'm also not Christian and I don't get mad at Christmas events. I don't get mad when there's lunar new year stuff.

I didn't care when they made tracer gay and thought they did a pretty tasteful job, I didn't care that there were gay relationships in mass effect or dragon age. I honestly don't see the problem. I don't know about you but personally, I like my games to be inclusive. I also know how it feels to not have any representation or only stereotypical representations of your 'people' in media so when some other minority group gets acknowledgement in a respectful and tasteful way I think it's great.

The fact that people are so buttmad about things like this is just more proof things like this are good. What am I missing? Is there some balance/gameplay issue that will come from this? Do you lose anything from this event?

Gay people? In MY nerdscape? REEEEE

Keep this SRD smug in SRD tbh fam

I just kind of don't get why people's sexual preference needs to be shoehorned into every facet of life.

I mean, it's been a good few years since I last played it, but I don't recall there being any fucking in runescape.

Not going to the secret ERP groups.

Erp?

Bless your peaceful ignorance.

Equine role play. It's an MLP/Runescape crossover.

Good lord I have a now-adult cousin who still plays runescape...is this the reason why?

My god damn cousin is a brony

Yep, dresses up like a horse and then casts love spells or shoves a morning star up his ass or whatever the fuck Runescape players do.

He was in the Navy............so I'm starting to connect the dots here

Have you seen what the first years have to do to leave academy for the summer?

Err, he's never mentioned it. Let me in on the open secret and describe it in a way that will make me regret learning it?

....please say you are joking around

It's erotic roleplaying usually, but I like that version better.

How do I unlearn this fact?

Massive doses of benzodiazapines will give you retro-active amnesia

I take a couple handfuls every time I browse /r/drama, highly recommended

What's shoehorney about a rainbow-coloured waterfall?

A waterfall to celebrate what some people do with their genitals? Yeah, that doesn't sound shoehorned at all.

WE PAY NO GAY

What's worse, being gay or still playing runescape?

Both at once.

Why'd you say "being gay" twice?

As a home of sexual, all I can say is THANK GOD. If runescape didn't remind me that sucking cock was OK then I would have fucking killed myself.

You probably should kill yourself with that username tbh.

I made this account 3 years ago and I'm just attached to the name now tbh. Not that you're wrong though.

I am a completionist type of player, so I will do the event

lol /u/Hey_Maz, what a fag going to a gay event.

fag

this is homophobia and not okay

please be mindful of your words, you might trigger our queerest users

I have a feeling the queerest users of r/Drama are totally ok with being dogpiled by strange men and called degrading names.

Suck my dick.

ok daddy

Good boy.

our queerest users

Trick statement, every drama user is the queerest.

implying bussy is gay

Fuck off, fag.

I don't care nor mind the event. I don't care nor mind if people are gay.

I do care about a gay jmod (admin for the two non-rs people left in the world) making gay pride a HOLIDAY EVENT and forcing that into a medieval game. I'm not sure how good you guys are with history, but being gay was punished by death in medieval europe at least.

It does not fit the game. It's really that simple.

What was the punishment for killing goblins in medieval Europe?

That would be in regards to the fantasy part of the game. I don't believe gay is fantasy.

Well it is I imagine, for gay people, but it's also very realistic.

wtf is your argument even dude if you're going to say nonsense at least make it entertaining

ya but i bet if they did an autism awareness day in runescape you'd be ecstatic

Jesus Christ this man has a family

People who pull the realism argument in fantasy games should be lined up and shot tbh.

admin for the two non-rs people left in the world

i guess i see why you're so upset over "realism" in a fantasy game when your grasp on actual reality is so tenuous

So having Unicorns and literal gods is fine, but gay people aren't? Really gets the noggin joggin.

Translation:I have abandonment issues, which is why I play a game decades past it's prime with my fellow autists, I hate fun which is why I grind 200M on click intensive 20k xp/hr methods and I suck a gigantic bag of dicks.

Pleased to meet you, Dr Phil.

Runescape is relevant again? ....

WHAT YEAR IS IT?

2007, considering how triggered they are by gay people

Lol this is something that shouldn't be political at all but is because of retards

They targeted gamers.

Gamers.

We're a group of people who will sit for hours, days, even weeks on end avoiding some of the hardest, most sexually demanding gays. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital token saying we're straight.

We'll punish our selfs refusing things others would consider sexy, because we think it's fun.

We'll spend most if not all of our free time min maxing the bussy turndown stats of a fictional character all to draw out a single extra point of fake hetero street cred.

Many of us have made careers out of doing just these things: slogging through the bussy, all day, refusing the same dicks over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know evety little detail such that some have attained such hetero nirvana that they can literally avoid letting the balls touch blindfolded.

Do these people have any idea how many of our own assholes have been smashed, dickskin over chafed, dildos and socks destroyed 8n sexual frustration? All to latter be referred to as bragging rights?

These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our excuse? We're already building a new one without them. They take our cumsocks? Gamers aren't shy about throwing their jism else where, or even making the floor our own. They think calling us homophobic, horny, repressed faggots is going to change us? We've been called worse things by prepubescent 10 year olds we hit on online. They picked a fight against a group that's already grown desensitized to their strategies and methods. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they've threatened us with. Who take it as a challange when they tell us it's okay to be gay now. Our obsession with proving we can't after being told we can is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with big brothers/sisters and friends laughing at how pathetic we are that continuing to manufacture victimhood has become a very real need; a honed reflex.

Gamers are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You're not special, you're not original, you're not the first; this is just another cock fight.

Doesn't sell me socks. 7/10

5/7 for me for how old this pasta is.

Source?

Ahh yes I love this one

I honestly can't believe Rumescape is still going, it's the fairly odd parents of video games

It's mostly nostalgia
