I'm not one to hop on the *phobia bandwagons, but irrespective of whether they're fearful of transpeople or not, this kind of silencing is exactly what they used to do with homosexuals

"Don't ask, don't tell" right?

@verius I've reported people myself for the same things. Nikki seems to have been singled out because she made people uncomfortable with the fact she was transgender.

@verius Ultimately, she was sanctioned because she made a fuss and someone reported her, but when others have done the same thing and not be sanctioned, then it's not a good thing. Moreover, I don't think it's appropriate to punish someone in-game for stuff that's entirely divorced from the game (the contents of her Twitter profile are what they had a real problem with, apparently, since it contains nudes).

@verius I don't think it matters, holding people to in-game consequences for out-of-game activities is just all sorts of bad mojo.
