So I can ask my mother or any random stranger I meet on the street if they know her, or simply have heard of her, and expect to hear "yes" as an answer?MerinTB wrote...

Alright, alright. I get it, you consider her to be a celebrity.
Because she is. Not because i believe it to be - because it can be as factually proven as any "celebrity" could be.No, you need to protect the status of your precious little icon, nothing more.And it certainly isn't like you're biased
I am biased. Towards the truth. And facts. And pesky things like definitions of words. Probably most annoyingly, I'm biased towards needing to point out logical fallacies...Oh please, if I wanted to play this ad hominem style I would've used terms such as "the pathetic MMO crowd" or something similar. There I was merely making clear how you're pretty much the archetype of her target demographic, hence not representative of the general population.because you're a massive geek and diehard fan of her.
Like this ad hominem.
Although I find it endlessly amusing that people posting on an internet forum about a video game company, especially those with screen names based on video game characters, would think that "geek" or "fan of geek icon" would be perceived contextually as slurs.
Kind of like how people on here say that the majority of the fanbase didn't ask for multiplayer, when "we" are just the tip of the iceberg.Not my style, and not the point I was trying to make.You failed to say I just need to get laid or go out and find a real-life girlfriend, that clearly I only like her because she's XX instead of XY..
That being said, perhaps you do need to get laid. :innocent:How we - the plebians - are told things happened is not always the ways things did indeed transpire. Par example, I doubt that Jack Wall really did 'resign' because he didn't want to be know as "the Mass Effect guy", when it's more likely that BioWare simply ditched him in favor of their big Hollywood composer because they now had the budget for it. Likewise, look at what happened to that PS3 version of ME2, or the recent multiplayer addition.didymos1120 wrote...

Just gonna keep repeating that one, eh? Even though that's not how it happened?
Granted, there isn't much of a reason to doubt that BioWare could've asked Day, as their demographics do indeed overlap. Still, don't just take everything we're told for granted.
So by your logic, of your mother and a random street person needing to know them, than every famous person from say the BBC and shows there on, though big in England, are not Celebrities because your mom and random American's don't know them? Ignoring the fact that millions from England could know them and watch them every day? Yeah that's not bias and elitist at all.
It's the same with her, millions of people know her, maybe not your mom, but does your mom know the ruler of Marco? He's a “celebrity” though, in his circle. You're irrational hate for her is strange to me.
Edit - and because I know if you are not American you'll be stupid and ignore what I put, it works other ways too, replace England with France (or any random nation) and America with China (or whatever your home nation might be). The example works....
