Guest Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 First, I apolegise for the low quality zoomed-in screenshot that is provided. The story begins when I was driving on the Calais to Duisburg road in EU2, I saw a person that was driving recklessly and I warned him that I would report him for this then suddenly, something really creepy happens. I do not know whether my username or custom paint job (Mint Toothpaste) caused this but I was asked if I'm an LGBT or not and and another player said that I'm "Gay" . I discussed this with my friend M and M told me that there's a woman that's known as an LGBT which is also called Anson. I was certainly confused after this because I don't want to, my parents gave me this name and I just can't change it. The TMP community is pretty much filled with idiots that literally can't think properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Let me start off with this. The TMP community is a great community and as with all communities, I am sure you will find some people that like to behave negatively. I can't really read what your screen says. Wheter you are LGBT or not, what does it matter? You can just be yourself in whatever way you wish and others must just accept and respect that. If you feel offended or the need to have this dealt with, I suggest reporting this. You can discuss this with a game moderator and solve it more in private.

Guest Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I would not always take everything seriously what people tell me, if someone would write to me, I would simply ignore it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellZiF Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 As with any large community, you're going to get people that act a fool just because they can. As someone who IS gay, I've learned to not let stuff like this affect me. Brush it off and just keep driving. Those people are only trying to get a reaction out of you and that's it. Hopefully you'll have a better experience next time. <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Encrypted_ Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Good Evening, I would like to start of by saying,the TruckersMP community is very diverse, you have the realistic people and then you have the toxic people - the person in the screenshot above. Whether or not you're LGBT it doesn't matter, at the end of the day you're still human so who cares. I think the best solution to solve this situation will be to report the user using the official TruckersMP report system, which the Game Moderators can deal with in an appropriate manner. However, yes that person sound be off the road for a bit, but long term it's still going to effect you, therefore, you should just leave this topic and this situation behind you. I hope I addressed you concern, Encrypted "one day you'll leave this world behind, so live a life you will remember" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Chenxi/COO]*Sange Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I would like to say that such a person, no matter where, if you think that his practice has caused you trouble, you can submit to management to solve. But I usually ignore such people.

Interstate Nomad Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 In general, no one may be discriminated on account of sex, descent, race, language, homeland, origin, religion, religious or political views or disability. A violation against this principle is not only a violation of the rules but more importantly a crime. Please report these players immediately, as the international and open-minded community of TruckersMP does not tolerate such behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy the game instead. Schizophrenia became a natural thing for the hateful part of the community in general, people don't have simple education.

Guest Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Thanks for all the replies commented. I must state that I am NOT GAY and these guys are just laughing at me because of my paint job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of us don't care what someone's sexual orientation is. If anyone does care, don't tell them, no one needs to know what someone else does with their life, especially if they're just going to be trolls.

(HK) JW9304 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Unfortunately there is a considerable amount of homophobia and hostility towards the LGBT community amongst the players, we just need to rewind a few months to when TMP changed their Facebook profile picture to the rainbow design for pride month. An unfortunate number of the comments simply came from ignorance, being uninformed, and bigotry. It could also be because many of the players are rather young (primary- middle school) and haven't learnt a more dignified and mature vocabulary yet.

Rico Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Hello there, i believe the right thing to do is send a report in and he will be dealt with accordingly, this type of behaviour shouldn’t be encouraged at all or suppported. ~Rico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davina Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 There's a still a lot of ignorance regarding this subject, especially amongst younger players who simply have no way of understanding. They're in the wrong, you're right, & concentrate on your driving :). I see plenty of male users out there with e.g pinkish paintjobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azuly Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 I don't understand why people use "gay" as a form of insult. Living in Canada, that's completely unthinkable for me. People need to grow up, this is 2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The TMP community is pretty much filled with idiots that literally can't think properly. Yes, it's normal. You send a provocation to that person without being involved, he responded accordingly by sending provocation to you. Perfectly normal human interaction. Now you are in shock for being called LGBT/Gay. The question is, why are you in shock for being called LGBT? Did you felt like being called weirdo? Why are you searching for the clues that might gave a reason to that player to call you LGBT/Gay? Do you want to remove those clues? If you can't handle Internet arguing, just mind your business and don't start one. People have freedom of speech, they might throw nasty words at your face.
