The pushback contributes to the overall problem, too.I do have to admit some bafflement at the push back this seems to be getting.
Gosh, all sorts of people.Who gets to determine what is "inappropriate"?
No, it's not, because most people are capable of determining what is and is not appropriate, and most staff at Cons already know that.That's the problem. Without getting more information, you have no idea whether Bloggins said something worthy of sanction or not.
So if there is a break in play, and the 99% decide that the topic of which movie on Netflix has the best sex scenes to masturbate to is going to be discussed, and if you're the 1% at the table then tough luck?It's also possible that 99% of the people around him didn't find what he was saying inappropriate.
It means, "Be mindful of others, because you are in public and you may not do anything you want in public. If you feel otherwise, go home."What does "watch what you say" mean in that context?
Con policies don't seem to require this. Regardless, if you're convinced that the best way to keep from being ejected from a convention is by not saying anything to anyone, then may I suggest you learn sign language?If the policy of the convention is to avoid saying anything, to anyone, that any other person could possibly object to, the only sure way to accomplish that is to say nothing at all.
Because they have no way of knowing whether he actually NEEDS to "watch what he says". It's also a problem because Bloggins may have absolutely no idea what he said that was inappropriate.

I'm on my phone so I can't link but if you look at the WotC CoC pdf for Expeditions, it has very clear harassment policies that cover most issues.

If that's still too much of a risk for you, then I have a bunker for sale in an undisclosed location that's internet and cable ready. Cheap, too.
Gosh, all sorts of people.
This is the same level of intelligence required for a person to be able to put their shoes on the right feet, to navigate to and from work, to a Con, or to the store and back, and to otherwise interact with people the world over in a civil manner.
It's not that hard.

The entire problem with this "ask no questions" attitude is that "inappropriate" is ENTIRELY subjective.
You're mistaking mockery for condescension. But the question is still valid.Just to make a point, I find your sarcasm and condescending attitude to be "offensive" and "inappropriate". I guess if we were at a con I could have you pulled aside and cautioned, and maybe even sent home if it happens again, without question?
