      I agree since Creative is 100% avoidable and not connected to the primary game modes like BR or STW. Epic Games does very little to prevent harassment, offensive usernames, or crude behavior from the players. Doing racist things to "protest" doesn't make you funny or a hero in this situation. If you're not interested, just leave it alone. And a lot of players were grown adults and not just innocent children or edgelord teens, and that's still not an excuse to be an asshole for assholes sake.

    I made a video criticizing this event back when it released and I remember getting so much flack for it. Looking back on it, it seems the general public seems to have the same opinions that I had about it now.

    They should've honestly just stayed out of that. It might sound messed up, but Epic knows what kind of reputation Fortnite has and what kind of audience it has too. There's no way an average 12 year old playing Fortnite is going to take history like that seriously when it's in the game. Epic, please stay out of cultural and historical events that has happened in the world, and focus on fixing your bugs. Stuff like that just doesn't fit Fortnite, or any video game for that matter. Leave that to the educational system.

    It should be worth mentioning that you would get the DC:63 spray after leaving the event, and I saw people in party royale use that along with the dumpster fire spray underneath to further mock the MLK stuff. The Catwoman whip emote not being disabled because of the licensing agreement was just wild (the player wearing the XEV style of the Fusion outfit knew exactly what he was doing lmao).
    Music for the event is very good though, I was pretty stoked to get it as a lobby theme when it became available.

    It was a simple educational experience, literally a virtual museum. It wasn't a live event, so no one was forced to attend by just playing the game.
    I don't see any harm done, minus emotes being active. Even then you could just queue privately 🤷

I was a big hotdog though and sat with Morty Smith, they didn't consider even for a second how skins could be wildly inappropriate for the situation, even unintentionally. Also I remember it took a hot second for them to do anything I don't remember it being very fast with the emotes and skins being disabled too.
