i really don't see how i was being mean in any way, there was no offense intended, and i don't see any reason for anyone to take offense at anything i said. i said it's a ridiculous "problem", because i don't think it's a problem, and i said he's got a boner for an item that he described in enough detail that almost anyone who has seen it knows exactly what item he's referring to. i thought it was funny, and i was honestly surprised that someone with as colorful a past with the players of this game as corey was even remotely upset by it.
as for him being unbiased, his entire argument is that the elite eq that he has/wants isn't as meaningful or impactful as we wants it to be... that is a very biased opinion. the people who never see eq of that calibur on a regular enough basis that it impacts their long term rank selection (the majority of active players) will never have that problem.
also, if you're concerned a word is going to get censored by a filter that was presumably written by someone who is concerned about the language used on these forums, circumventing those filters to make sure the word gets through generally isn't a very good idea.
