I think people overly offended at the notion of Obsidian removing it are also ridiculous frankly. Blahblah censorship integrity we'll boycott yadda yadda, it's a few lines of irrelevant text a backer wrote.

 

The thing is; there's a lot of "few lines of irrelevant text a backer wrote". And the vast majority of those could be removed to improve the game. But if this one is removed, they're not doing it to improve the game, they're doing it to cave to people I disagree with that have turned the act of being offended into a politicized business model.

Pretty sure the message was quite clear - "Enough is enough. No more threads about this"

Serious?

Thread was locked for length, not because of the board rules. When threads are locked for length, it's usually good form to start a new one.

 

Serious?

In those cases the mods start the new thread though. I'm pretty sure this is

Talk about cherrypicking only the part you wanted to hear from the moderator ending statement...

I feel this video by TMBG is relevant:

No Luckman. Pidesco said everything that's been said has been said. We just need to wait. Also, this thread needs to be nuked.

I think this has been discussed enough already?

I hadn't heard of this until today. I am outright confused by the sentiment at play in the complaint.

 

I doubt I can provide anything to the debate that hasn't already been covered in other threads, but I guess I can chime in just to confess being equally puzzles by the topic not being up for further discussion?

The thread doesn't break any rules, does it?

Why wouldn't it be acceptable to keep the talk going? I don't understand.

 

EDIT:

If people want to discuss this topic and aren't breaking any rules, why not allow it? The topic has relevance to the game after all, doesn't it? Again, I just don't understand.

The outrage over the possibility that the backer text (which doesn't even fit into the lore of the world, nor is it meant to) is going to be removed is even more ridiculous than the initial outrage. Seriously? Another thread? 

[PrimeJunta]

In re the fact of the matter is that there isn't any real discussion going on, just people shouting at one another. If you're into that sort of thing, hey, Twitter.

Because it's been discussed to death already? See final post in the earlier thread.

This issue has been brought to the attention of the powers that be. No more threads on the subject please. The previous 30 page thread was enough.
