We mistakenly referred to the biggoted modder as Mike Hunt rather than Mike Hawk and have since corrected the mistake.

Why is someone being banned for an optional mod that no one is being forced to use? If you don't like the mod just... don't download it

Good. Replacing pride flags with hate symbols should always result in a ban.

Kind of like how back in the day, there were mods to turn CJ from GTA San Andreas White, because apparently it made those gamers allergic to play as a Black man in a video game.

I recall a lot of racism here when that game was announced.

Same reason you get banned for posting pedophilia here. No one wants to see you whipping it out period.

He was banned by the site hosting the mods, so presumably they don't want that kind of bigoted shit on their platform. The fact that the dude actively tried to obfuscate what the mod was about tells me that he was aware of this stance

You don't blame him for being a homophobic git? There's no other reason to replace pride flags. Will you melt if you see one?

Why are you trying to regulate what a private business does? The modder could simply not use the service.

Nexus will ban you for criticising a game mod whether or not the criticism is justified. Just try and make a negative comment against many of the questionable skyrim mods and you will face a ban

Think gfaqs mods ab00se the users? Nexus is even worse

Agreed. Its not that I have anything against the LGBT community, but incessantly promoting it like theres no tomorrow gets old quickly, especially when people get so butthurt over other people not wanting to see it.

Because the intent was pretty clearly negative.

The text on the mod said the author was tired of Sir Isaac shoving his fancy light show in your face everywhere.

But the amount of pride flags in the city is not intrusive or "in your face". You'd have to actively look for them, to really notice them a lot.
