Why would it be? Are other events polled?

Oh Cool!
Are we getting some More Pride Events?
Hateful People Be Damned, I Wanna see people Show their Colors~

Also the Main Reason the Pride Events weren't Polled is because none of the Seasonal or Celebratory Events are Typically Polled.
As they are just Filler Content that doesn't do anything to Break the Balance of the Game and Usually just Give you Fun Little Cosmetic Stuff.
I Think the Main Reason is that the Polls Would probably Struggle to even Make it past 60%.

Wherever there is even the Tiniest amount of Rainbow or People just Being themselves.
A Vast Array of Ignorant Bastards are never very Far Away.
Queer People have always been Persecuted and we will continue to be until the end of Time.
But we can never Let Hate Win!

Trans Rights and a Happy Pride Month to All you Lovelies out there <3 <3 <3

No other event has generated anything even approximating the level of controversy that this one has.

No one forces you to participate

What is the controversy, exactly? That LGBTAQ+ people exists?

I think people are long tired of having this pride stuff shoved down their throats.

This doesn't answer how it's *exactly* controversial. It's just rehash of what others have said. Don't see how it's shoved down your throat? I mean, with all the hate going around I can see why there needs to be a pride month event every year. It should had been every month instead of yearly, but that'd be too much for the haters. If you feel that offended that lgbtaq+ wants to be visible that says a lot about your own self. Have a nice day.

Certainly not most people, though. Just a loud, very online minority. Most people don't care.

New content is always getting polled. So should this event. The other events existed before the poll system and should therefore not be affected by polls

You could just... not do the event...

There have been many unpolled new events, not to mention each event getting new content each time it's run. Why haven't you complained about the OSRS birthday event for the past 10 years? Why is it an issue now? Maybe you should stop playing the game out of protest.

Maybe i did complain about it too? What do you know?

Also, politics should not be in videogames, yet alone a game which are set in a fantasy medieval world

"Maybe I did," come on. You didn't, you know it, I know it.
Why? And why are you making the simple existence of a group of people political? The game has all kinds of politics in it, too.
