No homosexuality in Star Wars - BioWare
Forum users banned from discussing it.
Updated on
BioWare has banned users of the Star Wars: The Old Republic forum from discussing the subject of homosexuality.
Some threads had been set up discussing the potential issues around gay relationships within the game. The threads have since been locked, and the words "homosexual", "lesbian" and "gay" are censored on the forum.
Even discussions of the ban are being locked. At the bottom of the thread "GLBT discrimination in forums?", community manager Sean Dahlberg wrote, "As I have stated before, these are terms that do not exist in Star Wars. Thread closed."
You sure about all this, Sean? Only there was a lesbian character in one of BioWare's very own games, according to GayGamer.net.
