I’ve deleted my post because this small community is not for deciding how many genders exist or for complaining about other people. I understand that i only made everything more heated, and that people might not hear me out on this apology, But i don’t think what i posted was right to post in this programming community. and i don’t know what i was even thinking while posting that. i hope we can revert from this incident and forever be a hate-free environment. And also, I’m sorry for even posting that at all in this place. This is a simple coding community and i don’t want to stir up drama, and everyone is in the right here. I get that LGBTQIA+ hate is bad, but the person was just sharing his opinions, and i really think we shouldn’t take this too far, and let’s forget about this incident all together. I know it will be hard, but it’s the best we, The NX Community, can do. I know some of you guys are mad at me for shaking things up, but from the bottom of my heart. please forgive me. i did not mean to make it this big.

I dont think anybody is mad at you, in the end it was a good discussion. But it‘s probably ok that you deleted it in the end so we can focus on programming again :)

Between original lowres and lowresnx, i have had plenty of personal chats with people outside the scope of games.... but i approach such chats with respect for my fellow gamer, and mostly our conversations may carefully share this or that but i try always show respect... and i always keep it on their space so it remains somewhat private... although in general for safety reasons i dont believe any online chat should include personal id and should remain as the ID we sign on as...
If we stick to gamming, we should be ok... and "if" you want to be otherwise helpful towards someone, and keep that conversation on their space, that would be ok too... sometimes its nice just to have someone who will listen ...
But generally we should behave respectfully, and have fun making and sharing games :)
... personally i have long ago closed all my accounts for anything online ....
But i like this space here as everyone here, even though there have been an occasional disagreement, when we mostly focus on the games, i find everyone here and this space here a safe and fun way to practice old school programming, and enjoy all the variety of different games here :)
Thats why i love being here... just take look at how much stuff ive posted here ;) i love it here :):):)

This is actually from the "terms of use":
- Be nice and respectful with everybody.
- There is no place for racism and gender discrimination.
Maybe the second can be extended to "any kind of discrimination". I know that changing the Terms won't change people, but at least it reflects what we want to achieve here.
