oh ok posters can do whatever they want

That's not actually conductive to a good game. There's nothing wrong with necrozoophilia (err... you know what I mean), but when you're trying to run a PG-13 date game, it's as inappropriate as people having funerals for fallen chess pieces.

oh i dont expect it to remain a date game for long

look, either approach the girl or fuck the duck. Let's get a bit of plot in before you're off to bed.

i am on my final warning with toady and as apparently talking about social justice is inflammatory i will be closing this game as the whole point of the game was the twist that the blind date was a social justice warrior but im not going to risk the permaban sorry to dash your hopes of romance with the duck

Well again, there's nothing wrong with internet activism (stealing credit cards, though, is a federal crime, and I know it can be hard to draw the line) but making a game with the sole purpose of exposing people to it is a dick move.
Also, and this will sound weird in text form, "show, don't tell". Instead of making the protagonist date an activist, who tells him about social injustices, engage the guy in situations pertinent to your views. This might involve retooling the Aryan Ubermensch protagonist, but so what? Games are made fun by having complications in them.

im confused do you think im in favour of social justice because im not i just wanted to make a story where somebody goes on a date and things go horribly wrong

You're... against justice? wat. Next you'll tell me you hate Peace and Motherhood. I can see a debate about what "justice" is and isn't (which is basically the "religious flame-war thread" for atheists) , but being flat out against it?

(I realize you're on thin ice, so feel free to reply by PM)

Could we please end this discussion here? I believe that tuypo does not to wish to speak further of it due to being on their final warning. It may be best to let the issue rest.
