I'm on the fence about this one - it could easily get political and we don't have the mod bandwidth to handle it. However, we do want this to be a place for open discussion, you're talking about the concept of facism rather than specific politics and the comments have been good so far. I'm going to leave the topic open for now.
Hey, I just want to say thank you for being transparent about your modding philosophy and methods. It was a huge bugaboo of mine on the old site to go into a discussion only to find it locked without any explanation of why. It was usually a good assumption that the trolls had overrun it, but that wasn't always apparent in the comment section, and it's frustrating to see discussions shut down without any clear reason behind it.
Happy to help and thanks for the feedback!
It's now getting political so locking.
