Bottom line, any time you deal with the public, you can encounter socially maladjusted idiots and misanthropes. Yeah, it's fun to fantasize about "being right" and the evil, opposing faction being marginalized or punished.But, this is "the public". Public sessions draw out people at every point in their development The proverbial entitled dude who dreams of gamer chick "asking for it" after a few beers and proverbial lady who is offended even being in a guy's presence. Fortunately, the extremes are uncommon. They are just the most vocal And, people DO mess up AND learn. Just because someone does not know how to act socially does not mean they can't learn. Just because someone does have issues towards some group or gender does not mean they don't change outlook. Do you still believe the same way you did 10 years ago? People evolve.There is a solution though that does not involve witch hunts or creating privileged classes at public game venues. Ones the individual can control. Actually learning social skills if you are socially maladjusted and actually getting to the bottom of why you group one gender (or group of people) as evil if a misanthrope. Hell, an EXCELLENT reason to go to a con! It's a great place to learn to socialize when you are thrown around people you do not know!....And LEAVE if you encounter either of these... There are other groups at any con.You DO NOT have to hang with anyone, for any reason you see fit. It's also a great idea to not be crap faced around strangers. It is also a great idea (to quote the Satanists, of all people) to only mate when the mating signal is given AND not give this signal just for attention. LEAVE anyone who does any of these! I mean, what guy really wants to be around a lady who flirts and kisses on you then turns cold after she got all the attention from you? What girl wants to hang around a table while some awkward idiot wants to grab her coochie and act out ERP while she really just wanted to hit Armor Class 20 and participate in a cool story and have a cocktail after? Unless people just like being mad or likethis for some sick reason, LEAVE!And, if it is illegal or assault... we have laws and cops society pays taxes for. It's not perfect, no. But, it was created so we would not have folks walking up and raping folks, punching people, and taking stuff because they can.It would save so much issues.You can only expect the Con runners to kick out those who cross extreme lines. And, no con runner wants cops up in a venue. It is not the Con runner's job to hold your hand. Responsibility.</blockquote>
