edit: you also clearly don’t understand why they removed it. The mod itself wasn’t powerful enough to tarnish their reputation. If you actually tried to take a look at their own file submission guidelines, you’ll see that:
Files that remove gender identity including pronouns from a game that have been intentionally put in place by a game developer, when the removal is clearly to be divisive or cause hostility within the community or marginalise specific group(s).
are not allowed, among many other types of files. Why this particular mod is getting attention? I don’t know, perhaps the mod’s creators are trying really hard to get people to notice the removal.
Face it. They deliberately made a mod that went against the site’s guidelines. Why should they or anybody else be pissed off that the site removed it?
Your point is well-taken, but it’s also tangential to the crux of my argument. Yes, I’m fully aware that the mod’s author has expressed bigoted views, which does provide grounds for removal based on platform guidelines. However, the broader question here is not just about one specific mod or its author; it’s about what kinds of content truly warrant removal. If the issue was merely adherence to guidelines, then our conversation would be over. But I’m interested in a more nuanced discussion: What constitutes a mod that is so egregious it merits removal? And who gets to decide that? These are the questions at the heart of my main post.
Well I’m not interested in a more nuanced discussion. I said what I wanted to say. I really find it odd how desperate you are to gain opinions from literally everybody who interacts with your post. Not everybody wants to talk to you.
Fair enough, you’re not obligated to partake in a more nuanced discussion. But make no mistake, the essence of a public forum is to invite varying opinions, including those that go beyond surface-level judgments. If that’s not a conversation you’re interested in, you’re free to step aside. But don’t misinterpret my thoroughness as desperation.
