Many either don't know or don't care. More of the first than the later.

But, well, I used to run a raid guild in WoW and had this one dude where you could clearly hear porn playing in the background whenever he spoke. With him I've always verged on the side of thinking he must've had some sort of fetish for having people hear he was watching porn. Some really peculiar version of exhibitionism.

Did y'all ever mention it to him or was it just a commonly accepted "Oh yeah, that's just 'Background Porn Brad' haha" type thing?

Yeah, people were subtle like saying "can't hear you well, there's other audio coming through". At which point he'd usually turn down the volume, but you could still hear it.

But it was the fact it was persistent, across years.

And, well, he was a great tank, if watching or listening to porn during a raid is what's needed for him to do his job well, I'll let em.

But that doesn't make it any less weird and awkward.

And, well, he was a great tank,

He was using the porn audio to pull aggro
