Hey Grubbs, you're spot on, and don't waste time with the troll.

FC used certain language. Specifically citing pedophilia or sexual violence doesn't include, say, consenting adult age-players. But pedophilia may include grooming that stays "technically" inside lines (predators can be sophisticated on how to violate the intent if not the letter of the law), and sexual violence may include those who target things besides kids (which is much less an issue at a con where the main concern may be kids.)

This CoC change affects a mere handful of people. Arguments about it need to come prepared with knowing who and why it affects them. I've only seen bogus ones about "what ifs" that don't exist, or half-assed apologism that doesn't work with full context.
