There is apparently a feature on Steam that if enabled, authorizes Valve staff to moderate game hubs, which has resulted in several people including myself getting banned from game hubs without authorization by the developers with no way for them to correct this issue themselves.
I want to create a thread about this bullshit fucking with developers and their communities, but Valve has been continuously threatening my account and I do not want to risk a questionable general permaban from the Steam community that will interfere with my ability to seek customer support, that is why I want the people here to create a thread about this shitty feature that allows their corrupt regressive leftist staff to fuck with their userbase.
DO NOT DISCLOSE A THREAD REQUEST WAS MADE HERE OR THEY MAY FIGURE IT OUT I AM THE SOURCE AND PERMABAN ME, I have even deleted a thread containing the text I posted on Steam.
They're not hiding it all. People just don't give a shit when it involves things like anime boobs, and they treat incidents like the BLM troll game as one off incidents.
Steam has a lot of convenient features; it's hard for people to get worked about principles.
Edit: Epic is woke dog shit too. By the by.
This is a good response; I'll put aside the pride, BLM and MLK stuff for now and keep an eye on them.
I despise Epic's Chinese ties but I'll admit I do like them as a potential 'disruptive source' in regards to competition (Steam, Android/iOS).
Sadly, Epic games is worthless as a competitor and Valve knows this.
The only way someone could legitimately compete with Valve would be to do something like allowing content banned from the platform and ignoring regional laws for all content.
I like DLSite, but they and DMM, etc., have a niche product base and even GOG is tiny in comparison.
GamePass is semi-successful in adoption but it's a subscription model and Microsoft is obviously woke.
Valve isn't losing its hegemony anytime soon, but I'd rather some competition than none.
How DARE you judge someone by the content of their character! Black people deserve praise solely because they are Black! And you better capitalize Black but not white because EQUALITY! 🙃
