You're assuming a lot about me. E.g. that I'm somehow employed by Itch.io or even on the same continent as the rest of the team. And you're talking to me because our admins are busy people who can't always answer right away. Rest assured they've been informed of this exchange. As for Wikipedia not being valid, does that mean it's also wrong about hate speech laws in the US, by any chance?

Edit: Speaking of which: nobody has been making any legal claims. Discussing what is and isn't legal in various countries doesn't count. Discussing what kind of business Itch.io is doesn't count either. You brought up the law, right from the original post. I'm pretty sure (and this isn't legal advice; I am not a lawyer) that implied threats like you've been making this whole time would weigh more heavily in a court of law, if things ever got that far, than any mistakes I may have made in this conversation.

stop talking. you just said this wasnt your department.

because you've stated this is not your job now, i'll wait until the person whose job it actually is, shows up. the only thing you can possibly add to this conversation now is *nothing*

you are the least professional, least qualified, and most immature mod i've ever seen. the last time we talked, a common user was better at actually finding source links then you (because you were instead wasting time explaining how nazis were bad). that's the truth of what happened, and i don't want to hear your response because you just stated this is no longer your job now.

That was a figure of speech. And I can add that a community runs on good understanding between people. Most of us don't go around asking what is and isn't legal to say while shopping in a mall; it's simply not needed. In fact, we've only received that kind of question once before. Strangely enough, that person also mentioned, unprompted, a certain genocidal ideology that's outright banned in most countries.

Edit: ah, that was you? In that case, the answer hasn't changed since last time: if you post such a game and people report it, we're going to take action. That much is certain.

so, like last time i should assume free speech and free creative expression is dead on this site?

maybe leave your hatred for groups you disagree with, at the fucking door, when you come into work everyday. you seem overly emotional, emotionally immature, and seem to revel in banning those you hate. you shouldn't have the power of banning things, until you get your shit sorted out

if silencing people is a charge you want to level against the "nazis" you apparently try to hunt down, you're being exactly that right now, and a hypocrite. FFS is it really that hard for you let people be?

as i said, you were so damn intent on explaining why hate speech was bad, that a common user had to do your fucking job for you. do i need to explain why that's a sign you should do better? instead of helping me by giving the info i asked for, you thought it was a far better option to lecture at my face. fuck you in particular for that.

i saw my first impression of you, now i've seen my second, and i don't like you, or your stupid mod conduct. you even existing as you do now, makes me hate this entire website.

You do realize this site hosts over 170 thousand games of incredible diversity, and that you're still not banned despite behavior that would amply warrant it. I am, however, locking this topic now, since it has degenerated into insults. Have a good day.
