In no land of logic and reasoning would those ever get approved. Equating what's being asked from thoughts on a fictional pride night jersey to questions about race and creed is comparing apples to oranges.

Not really, considering it's all in the same category of trigger issues. Do what you want and ask what you want when scouting. That's your time to ask questions to identify if the player is the perfect LR fit for your team. The league's job with this survey should stop just before that.

We, as a community, have a responsibility to keep this place safe for everyone. Those who hold bigoted beliefs, by definition, are going to make this space less safe for everyone. If you feel like you need to hide your true opinions because the league wouldn't tolerate you, perhaps you should take time to reevaluate your opinions.

Also, this IP thread should just be a general survey of player goals, etc. not a bunch of "do you believe in pride night" questions that I know alot of y'all will crucify someone for answer "no". Why intentionally set a user up for league-wide bullying like that if not for you and your co-commissioners enjoyment in the HO servers.

When they answer no? Outwardly? Nothing. The last issue that occurred had nothing to do with the interested prospect thread, but the topic you are bringing up instead.

There are a number of things a person can say that would put them on my DND list (if I was a GM). Being able to handle yourself when asked a question shouldn't be that difficult.

If you are put on a DND list for 3/4 of the teams, you are still eligible for 1/4 of the remaining teams.

Someone who would ask that to exclude a person based on their ethnicity is entirely different of not wanting to allow homophobic people in your spaces. If you can't see that, I don't think anything can come out of this discussion and I suggest you read the thing Rankle posted about the paradox of tolerance

@scudmuffin19 I get a sense that you are highlighting contrarian views simply to go against the bloc and consensus. While absolutism isn’t something that should always be a permanent state, I don’t believe this is really the great example you are thinking that it is when trying to highlight a weakness in the bloc or anything akin to that.
