    I was not joking about not being able to have nice things. This is not a debate thread. Please stop trying to turn it into one.
    @Expedect is allowed to make this event on whatever terms he would like, as long as they follow the rules. The event is not mandatory, so you do not have to participate if you don't want to.

    Please keep this thread on it's original topic.

    He said you can join if you're pro-LGBT.

    I don't know dude. If you're coming there to make a statement and piss people off, you're probably not allowed in. If you're going to participate and be a positive part of the event, you're probably allowed in.

    I don't think this is a closed party, they just don't want assholes to ruin the event. That's not that much to ask for :P

    Anyone can come, but if you are coming to start trouble you are not welcome for basic understandable reasons

    I'm not trying to start hate here but I don't think it needs to be advertised that people are LGBT. They are who they are, and you can't change that. I understand and respect that. You don't need a label to define you and instead of being called "bi," you could just be called a person. It's cool to express yourselves, but do you really need to make a huge statement about a label? I'm saying this is great, but it isn't necessary. Also, this is Minecraft...

    I personally have many people in my life who are gay/bi/lesbian/other but I agree with Bearington. It's a little unnecessary to do it here. Yes, it could make the community for accepting, but this is still Minecraft. People just wanna screw around with their friends or build something majestic or have an amazing time. I think that if you want to do something like this, then you should do it at your school/workplace. That would be a great place to make the community a better and happier place.

    Oh no I'm sorry I read Stellerite's post wrong, I was just skimming through this last night and was really tired, so I though she was saying straight people couldn't attended the event because they weren't oppressed! Didn't realize she was talking about straight people having a completely seperate parade just for them. But I know the LGBT can experience oppression in their life and I'm really sorry for any hatred that your friends have experiences in the past/future, just because of who they are.

    But I really hope I can come attend this, if my presence is not wanted then that's fine just let me know but I would love to show support for the LGBT+ community.

    I'm incredibly disgusted by the way this thread turned.

    @MC_Scout has already told you that this is not a debate thread. In no way was this to start a debate, so please stop starting one.
    This is the 3rd time the community has done this to a totally peaceful thread (at least to mine).

    Everyone can attend, no matter if you're straight. If you're going to be rude about it, don't see yourself getting a lot of attention.

    There's a really good OG for this, that I'm changing my name to. Trust me, it's not the challenge but it's actually an amazing message.

    Show up or don't. Your negative attitude(s) aren't appreciated. The people that are taking this thread seriously, the respectable people here, have seriously won my respect and should be praised.

    A lot of you seriously just read the title and instantly comment something that's not related and/or is just plain offensive.
    Seriously, read the thread, the replies, everything, before you reply something that's unnecessary.

    Nobody is requiring you to show up. Be happy with the event that's taking place, stop opposing against it. If you're going to be commenting about where it's taking place, the theme and all, find something else or host something else. I'm not stopping you, but it's seriously time to stop.

    I think you're taking this way to personally. No one is being rude or anything. We're all just voicing our opinions, which aren't even disrespectful.
    I've only seen goofy replies, and pretty respectful replies.
    This is general discussion, are we not allowed to discuss this?
    Edit: grammar

    Dude, you're announcing a public event on an open forum that caters to a portion of the people. You got to be ready for people to question the event, make suggestions to make it more inclusive, ect. Especially in this era, not everyone is going to agree with your opinion. Now, here's a suggestion: Instead of deflecting and shunning people with opposing opinions, how about you man up like a leader and be a little bit more reasonable. You're being really childish for someone who is hosting an event, who runs a build team, and who is on this server's staff team. Thnx fam
