I think it's now time to update abuse section on mal forum guidelines to add "anime tourist" in insult category.

| No need to. This way of addressing people is about as neutral as, I dunno, calling someone an "anime poser" or using similar phrases. In my opinion, it’s not eligible to be considered part of a separate category of general offenses, especially compared to far more serious things, such as racial offenses. Including it would just water down most, if not all, of the existing categories in terms of their social importance, without necessarily addressing “anime tourist” haters effectively, especially if, again, the term is used neutrally to describe a phenomenon. Still, an offense is an offense at the end of the day, and I agree it shouldn’t be the norm. However, I think the current rules under the Abuse section are enough to deal with someone who’s trolling or flaming by throwing around terms like “anime tourist” (with or without context), or even worse ones. If someone feels that a post falls under the general rules of the Abuse section, or even is directly insulting towards that person, then they might just report said post. |
