I really don't find this discussion very fair, I'm writing all of this shit and nobody bothers reading it.
Weird, because I directly responded to you when you said it the first time, but you just ignored it. Here, let me read the thread for you:
Now, I may be stretching here, but in the one in a million chance you didn't read what I just quoted above, let me explain once again.
Removing Nipple Tweaking does not fall under "potentially creepy shit" because it has sexual connotations. People don't need to twist it into something creepy like they would have to with something not inherently sexual, eg. farting, talking, throwing money at people etc. Therefore, there's no crazy slippery slope of every feature being removed because of it's "potential" to be creepy. The potential is up to the player, and those players will be banned.

Walrus Wrote:Dauntasa Wrote:the fundamental idea of removing things from the game because they allow weird/creepy behavior is entirely futile simply due to the number of things in this game are both important and long-standing features and also have the potential for unbelievable creepiness.
This is a great response to an argument that nobody made.
Firstly, nobody is advocating to remove Nipple Tweaking because it allows weird/creepy behaviour, Nipple Tweaking is something with sexual connotations that is coded into the game. Because of this, there is no need for a player to twist or manipulate the mechanic into something else for it to be creepy. Nobody's going to start hounding the admins to remove harm intent because sadomasochists exist, so please cut the whole slippery slope thing where everything fun is going to disappear overnight because Nipple Tweaking was removed. Secondly, this feature is neither important nor long-standing, so we can all rest easy knowing that the game is not going to be fundamentally changed because of the removal of Nipple Tweaking.
