While I hated BDO when I tried it, I have to remove this post because it violates this subreddit's "no disparaging or pushing other games" rule. Let's keep it Bless Unleashed. For reference https://youtu.be/4LJvZrq7EgI

But this post from another use is still up as our countless others referring to BDO as a better game?

Not sure that is a fair determination. My post was put up in response to countless posts referring to BDO as a better game. I bought it - checked it out myself and made a video to demonstrate the low quality of that game as compared to Bless on Playstation and my post gets removed? Not at all sure that is fair treatment.

Another quick note: Several users have either sworn at me, called me lil guy, a casual gamer, etc and I don't see their posts getting removed. I NEVER LET THINGS DROP TO THAT LOW LEVEL - despite a huge temptation to react back with something equally as derogatory.

Frankly this community needs a very hard dose of: There is a line in rudeness - and it generally ends with calling someone else a derogatory name.

If that sort of thing is going to happen using the Title of someone else's intellectual property - then I would suggest pulling the whole forum down. The failure to keep the forum respectful can have a detrimental financial impact on the development studio's bottom line - and that opens the mods up to individual financial liability because your traffic comes from people interested in someone else's IP. Just something to consider.

When I first joined a few weeks back my first thought was sooner or later this game is just going to die because the few people on this forum are so unbelievably toxic.

Dude I totally agree. I hated BDO when I made myself play it for 8 hours for a video, and I'm sick of the constant "bless is dead come play BDO" posts. I remove those whenever I see them. Those posts are the reason we have the rule against promoting other games, but we felt it was only fair that trashing other games shouldn't be part of our atmosphere. It potentially invites bickering in the comment section.

I don't tolerate insults, but I can't see everything, so if someone attacks you in comments please report them so I can be aware. Same with posts slamming bless or promoting other games over it.

We've come a long way toning down how toxic this place was before I took over, and keeping it to a low roar is an ongoing project. When it comes down to it, its an open world pvp game, and those tend to attract some aggressive or abrasive elements. So nothing against your post or opinion. I agree. But I can't play favorites just because I agree with a post when it breaks a rule
