That's a big part of why I'm feeling so driven away and alienated by this. There's no indication that they ever gave a moment's thought to the fact that women, GLBT folk, people of color (especially people with Middle Eastern or Asian names), or survivors of abuse and stalking, would feel particularly alienated and pushed away by this. Even if I could live with the changes, with never using the forums, and the increasing emphasis on merchandising tie-ins and special offers and microtransactions in a game that already costs $15/month, I don't know that I want to give my money to a company so appallingly insensitive to minorities.
