You may want to reread the debate. I even stated specifically that there should be a proper response while explaining the neutral position Orion is trying to take, which is the ideal stance for moderation purposes. It does not necessarily reflect ones opinion, however I can say from personal experience that it is often the more beneficial not to fuel the flames when there is no fire brigade in sight.
There's been quite a few people wondering about some threads regarding this topic getting locked, and I remember that when this issue first popped up I had to lock two of them because the thing derailed into xenophobic and racist comments. We might even agree with some of the points people are adressing, but the main nature for our intervention is when those turn the nature of the debate to the worse.
Nobody said it was a non-issue, only that it is no use to shake your fist vigorously at the screen when you wait for the proper response like everyone else, moderators included.
Again, continue to try and misrepresent my whole point here to make me look like some forum troll. You claim Orion has pointed out the facts yet he dismisses the whole point of the post:
"TW have admitted that the 10-year bans were a mistake. There is no point in using that as a point of argument anymore. "
The whole reason we are here is it may be still happening and we lack information.
Then, this:
"K, so you didn't read the statement Callum made in the first thread like this where he said all of those bans were reduced in length to days, not years. What do you want, a screenshot of their ban list? Statements are all you can hope to get, and you aren't entitled to those, either. The report system & vetting criteria are still being determined. Put your pitchfork away and just wait for answers with the rest of us. "
We are just supposed to be okay with wrongful bans because they were reduced to weeks AFTER the issue was pointed out?
Is this not dismissive? Was the mod that banned me from the steam forums for posting about this and told me I was spreading "baseless conspiracy theories" not dismissive? I get you want to be Mr. Neutral in this situation but the visual for TW is not great, with the mods seemingly trying to save face for the devs, and it seems like even you guys are left out of the loop, left here to calm the the upset mob while TW continues to seemingly ignore it.
