It’s an accurate description of the content of the sidebar. If players can opt out of using the system, then their consent is literally required by the system.Well, the title of the sidebar was "Player Consent Required". I doubt this thread would have happened at all were that not the case.
EDIT: Actually, that’s not being fair enough to your point. Yes, I agree that if the sidebar hadn’t been titled “player consent required,” there wouldn’t have been any objections to it. Not because “player consent required” is actually an overbearing thing for the sidebar to be titled (as I said, it’s a literally accurate description of the sidebar’s content), but because there’s a contingent within the RPG community who has become hypervigilant against anything that sounds vaguely “woke,” and “consent” happens to be one of the words that sets their hackles up.
