Strand 06/02/23 1:47:32 AM #20:	Dat_Cracka_Jax posted... Did that board warrant a 500 topic? It's the way this is being handled, not the boards themselves. If they clearly explained the reasons why 261 and Realpolitik were closed, then neither board would warrant this much discussion. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/6-gamefaqs-announcements/80445446 In DToast's initial announcement being political, by itself, wasn't enough to violate Fandom's terms or justify a board's closure. It was "specifically ones that violate our [Fandom's] terms of use by promoting abusive language" and DToast emphasized Fandom's values of belonging, online trust, and safety. SBAllen later clarified that the politics focus actually was why 261 was closed. But a day after that clarification, DToast went back to the original reason. He announced on GameSpot that both 261 and Gamespot's Political Gamers board were closed due to promotion of abusive language. https://www.gamespot.com/forums/offtopic-discussion-314159273/closure-of-political-gamers-33603133/ And most recently today, DToast said that the politics focus actually is why 261, Gamespot's Political Gamers board, and now Realpolitik were closed. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/400-current-events/80462841?jumpto=140#140 They keep flip-flopping. So we don't know the real reason why these boards were closed, what standards are being used, and what this means for other boards. And neither SBAllen nor DToast have deleted or corrected the original announcement. --- "I am a man of somewhat retiring, and I might even say refined, tastes, and there is nothing more unaesthetic than a policeman." <cite>Strand posted [p:973873291] in Realpoliti...
