Do you think Kitana and Mileena would make the cut?

I'm just going to go ahead and answer my question with, yeah more bickering about how wrong I am. This conversation has been long overdue. I said what I wanted to say, no matter what I write out, I'm just going to get how wrong I am shoved back in my face. So, whatever. Think what you want, I'm actually going to stop arguing because this is getting way too ridiculous. Have a nice day, folks.

I remember there was a time when someone on the internet was saying that the classic MK games where sexist because it's possible to pick a male character and beat up female characters. They made it sound like one could create a ladder of nothing but defenseless female characters and beat on them all day... and that's what everyone who plays MK was doing. They must have thought the M in MK really stood for Misogynist. :P

As for me, I wouldn't mind if the designs where less "trashy".... (which is a matter of opinion.. cultures who are less uptight wouldn't see it that way at all.. and fighters aren't exactly known for completely covering up either)... but some people wouldn't be happy unless they where all reduced to wearing burkas or something... no wait.. just the fact that they can be beat up is too much for some people.. female characters must be taken out completely to protect them.. But then there wouldn't be any which would anger yet another crowd! Like with the recent Assassin's Creed Unity thing.

This...thread...is...hilarious.

All I asked is "Do you think Kitana and Mileena would make the roster?" and we got a political debate instead. lol. Only in the MK fandom could THIS sh!t happen.

BTW, I changed my avatar just to piss off the puritans. And it worked. You guys. should see my inbox. Name calling, character assassination, threats etc., and both of those messagees posted in this thread crying crocodile tears about the ladies showing too much skin. And not one, NOT ONE, of those hateful messages came from a woman.

I LOVE my fellow MK fans.:twisted:

I must say I've been completely detached from MK forums for years. Are there people in fandom also unironically screaming DATS RAYSIS about Nightwolf and stuff like that nowadays?

Really?

Pics or GTFO. I can't see anybody actually sending you threats on this site. After all, we've had members like the Marshall who had gigantic titty avatars and even Vital who has had a few kinky avatars of Mileena and nobody has said anything.

I smell bullshit, and it's coming from you, sir.

No, there aren't. At least, I have never heard that complaint during all my time on TRMK.
 
The kinky Mileena avatars satisfied my cravings of seeing her objectified through art, seeing it in MK9 wasn't enough.

The "shit gets fixed within the first five minutes of editing" only when you do something so blatant that the bots react. The bots that had to be installed precisely due to the massive ammount of daily vandalism.

You just proved my point. Wikipedia is not full of vandalism because bots clean it up.


Robert Glasel said:
Oh, and Wikipedia is also full of, literally,
propaganda (including disinformation/lies). Often
with hostile propagandstists warring with each
other over the content, especially regarding the
ongoing armed conflicts and such.

Prove it. I asked you to name an article.

That only your articles are right. You're arrogant.

You can avoid the bots by:

- not using swear words

- not posting gibberish

- and other things that are obvious, such as blanking the articles (that is deleting everything or a lot at once), for example

You can still insert any bullshit you want. If you want so, you can use fake references (sources), especially these offline (it's unlikely anyone will ever check them, much less correct them). Also make sure to make an account and do some edits first to better fool the system. Happy vandalizing!

You want me to "name an article"? Okay: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Wikipedia

I didn't say anything like that. I said, to quote:

"That's nice you have so much faith in Wikipedia. But sadly you're wrong. Wikipedia is full of vandalism, idiotic "good faith" content, fringe theories, trolling, and more. Personally (with a lot of insider exposure of how the things are) I have faith only in the articles that I myself wrote."

No I'm not arrogant. But you seem to be really, really gullible.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Beemer69 is also an excellent MK editor, especially for many long-neglected character articles and did some really good work with Ermac's (which was a brand new article but then quickly became very extensive).

LOL YES:

http://news.google.com/newspapers?n...KMaAAAAIBAJ&sjid=7CwEAAAAIBAJ&pg=2542,4532180 (1995)

http://books.google.com/books?id=QZjJ9uIj1CcC&pg=PA31 (1996)

For example, about the horrible sexism and misogyny (and racism too) of just introducing female characters to Mortal Kombat in the early 1990s.

There were many more feminist/conservative (they essentionally agreed in their views) idiots/pro-trolls like that.

And the "Tropes vs Women" bullshit equivalent 'gender critical studies' bible of the 1990s was the book titled From Barbie to Mortal Kombat: Gender and Computer Games ("The game console may help to prepare children for participation in the digital world, but at the same time it socializes boys into misogyny"). Here's one review of it from 1999: http://www.amazon.com/review/R520TA6BDUERB/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN=0262032589

When writing a research paper, might as well read content written by authoritative figures on the subject like academic journals. While there are a few good contributors out there, the open-ended nature of wikpedia makes too easy to abuse, especially for obscure topics that not many people know about.

Lol okay how did one argument from another thread join the midst of another argument in this thread? Smh. Seriously, just make a debating thread or w/e.

ON-TOPIC, THOUGH: Mileena, I feel, is definitely going to make an appearance in MKX. Probably playable seeing as, like BBLP said, popular she was.

And Kitana keeps being confirmed daily. Most recently: https://twitter.com/noobde/status/494541446230208512

For some reason, people do keep forgetting this actually IS Mortal Kombat. And which means no one really ever dies.
