Banned discussion of it, bans people discussing it...playing it on steam.

Funny.

I'm assuming the decision was majority across the board and not solely the admins decision. Likely the majority of the staff and site wanted discussion banned, but that doesnt commit the admin to anything imo. He can oblige by their wishes and still make his own choice on it, its whatever, it's a damn video game.

But the rule isn't playing the game = ban, so there's no reason he shouldn't be able to play it.

It is a video game, which makes it weird to not be able to discuss it on a video game forum tbh.

But he definitely can't discuss it! Otherwise that's a ban!

I agree with this personally, but I can only imagine ResetERA forced him to apologize for the hurt he caused.

Wait how is this hypocrisy?

Banning discussions of it doesn't mean you're not allowed to play it...

SBAllen has banned gay porn being posted on this site. So is he a hypocrite if he watches it in his free time?

It would be hypocrisy if he was talking about it on some obscure board on the site.

I imagine a solid chunk of users on ResetEra have played it

Well, the hypocrisy more arises from the statement they put out that one statement that says that supporting the game is supporting JK Rowling and they refuse to allow that so they shut down talking about it to stifle that.

Yet one of the admins purchased and played the game.

That would be the hypocrisy. I doubt an admin had no say in the matter but I could be wrong.

resetera banned discussion of the game because they feel that they have an image of moral indignation to hold up as a site that puts identity politics very heavily into their image. i dont think moral indignation is why you cant post porn on gamefaqs

but really, if you think about it for more than a minute, you realize that resetera is allowed to talk about a ton of different problematic things. that is because usually the site can come to consensus in condemning them as bad. its fairly obvious that this is something they could not come to a consensus with, but they don't want the bad publicity of being the big social justice gaming forum that cannot unite on this subject. so they just excluded discussion entirely from the site to avoid conflict

I still don't think that's hypocrisy unless this very admin:

  1. Directly said that
  2. Also directly claimed to support transgenders


Again it would be like if SBAllen watched porn despite banning it on this site and Error making a post saying porn is sinful and mean to women.

That doesn't make the dude a hypocrite...

People are looking too hard into this man.

I mean, it's pretty much nothing like that and you're looking far far far too hard for an analogy that doesn't fit to try and have it make sense so you can justify something on a site you're not even a part of.

Just sit back and chuckle my dude. It's OK. ResetEra isn't here.

It's okay to have a chuckle about it, bud. You don't gotta go pulling at strings and defending some guy on the internet, Cyric.
