    ...Except for this one. I'm sure it's appreciated by the community in general, myself included. I personally don't listen to radio in general, the noise gets up my ass, but that is quite respectable of you.

    When in someone's home you respect the rules of their home.

    Personally I didn't see any politics being discussed. All I posted were some facts along with their source. The SOTA community was unique in that it's a global community from many parts of the world. Mostly a mature community. We all united with this game. Having the ability to discuss a global pandemic that is a threat to us all on the game forums was a nice treat. Its not as if these forums are active with discussions of the game.

    For those who would rather not read about COVID-19 on their gaming forums. This information isn't pushed, you have to actively pull the thread to read the information.

    Again, I respect the rules of the house. Just remember how threads like this are handled is just one of MANY reasons, so many previous very supportive visitors now choose to visit other homes. Having been in this community many years I also know the blame doesn't lie with the community manager, but within the core of the organization. My idiocy is in believing one day things will change.

    Stay safe, healthy, and remember this virus clearly demonstrates just how closely we are ONE.

    I didn't see what was edited, but if it's forbidden to discuss the virus with peers, friends, and community members, who you share your experiences with, that's dogshit. Totally feel that way. This is a community forum, a global thing like the virus that's ravaging all our nations, and if -mature- discussion, (and I hope it was), is being moderated, that's complete bullshit. That said, if it needed moderating, by all means, moderate.

    ~ Note: Apparently it isn't. We're not allowed to discuss a global issue apparently, nor name anything, or our pets after it. Illegal. Not that you'd do something as juvenile as that. Feh.

    If people are making childish jokes, maybe moderate the user.. But threads are locked, it would seem, mature or otherwise. Global issues are a no-go-there. Crap.

    Some people were making partisan charged remarks, whether they want to admit it or not. Keep that kind of rhetoric out and your comments won't get deleted.
