I reported them for harassment with the following statement:
The purpose of this group is to review bomb any game that has gay representation. Their discussion threads talk about using other platforms to discriminate against LGBTQ+ communities and individuals to circumvent Steam’s TOS policies. This type of behavior promotes discrimination, review brigading, and toxicity. It is surprising Steam is tolerating such open homophobia on this platform.
Why is this an issue? Should all people enjoy LGBTQ+ content and not have any way to avoid it if they so wish? Also, the curator is not using offensive language, just pointing out which content has pro-LGBTQ+ content.
A total non issue my dudes. Perhaps there are more important fights out there?
edit Even the screenshot includes the “Ignore this curator” button. Does it not work for you? Shit like this is why nobody except your own bubble is taking you seriously.
you should get your ears checked. lotsa whistling of a certain kind in the words this curator used.
e : also, one shitty thing doesn’t mean another can’t exist. not sure why you’re here in the first place.
The curator wants to use offensive language but avoids doing so to prevent getting banned. So they use “polite” ways to discriminate and encourage their following to do so as well.
If you looked any further into this group and exited your own bubble, you would realize this. Instead you commented without reading further and assumed I reported this group because they don’t enjoy the same types of games I do.
By this logic, i could accuse you of wanting to say the N word but only not saying it to avoid getting banned. So FACTUALLY nothing like that happened but you realize how shit would the justice system be if it worked like this? I could just insert thoughts and wants into anyone’s head, and crucify them. If something didn’t happen then it didnt. Call it out once it does. Dont’ assume.
I’m not assuming. They explicitly state they do this in one of their discussion threads. Take your own advice.
I find their selective use of quotation marks quite offensive.
I agree, that is a bannable offense.
Steam has a hard limit on like 200 curators to ignore, after which point it will print a vague error about it not working. I know, I hit that limit. That’s not a solution.
Then make a stink about that and they’ll fix it. Most likely nobody tested if the system breaks when you have so many curators blocked (because honestly, who would have this many) and it’s a simple fix to do.
