Infinitrons abuse of mod powers is extremely annoying and needs to stop

I'm talking about practice of thread splitting here. Happened twice recently to my knowledge, first with Avowed art director drama, now with KCD2 wokification drama.

From user point of view it looks like this: I'm reading about art director drama in main Avowed topic and suddenly people stop talking about it and topic ends. Fine I guess. Then I come back later and find out that topic got split and now another multi pages topic exists solely about that drama. Then I have to scroll through multiple pages until I find a point I ended reading in main topic. It's a colossal waste of time. Why there was no notification that split happened in main topic?

Now same happened with KCD2 but worse. Infinitron split wokification drama from main topic, named it with dramatic inflammatory title and attempted to bury it in gaming discussion section of the forums. I'm aware that topic is back in general rpg discussion, but still.

Most importantly, there is literally no reason for any of that splits, both games are not even released yet and there is little else to talk about anyway. Infinitron is clearly abusing his mod powers to meddle with topics. It's incredibly scummy. low cunning behavior and basically attempt of shadow banning a topics that dude doesn't like.

And yeah, it made me mad enough to create my first topic here, on fucking site feedback of all things. Enough is enough, this vile behavior needs to stop.
thread splitting can be annoying, but putting all the posts not actually intending to discuss the game but rather the meta surrounding the game / contemporary politics ruins entire threads so i can understand why it's being done. i don't want to have to skip through 10 posts every page when im looking for people actually talking about their experience with the game, that's derailing

Damn it, puppy. Do you really feel this constant need to prove you're "someone" by calling others "nobody", "unimportant", "poor contributors"?

Do you feel important just because you’ve reviewed games that you probably haven’t played or finished?

You must have so many insecurities that you feel the need to keep repeating that YOU are important, and others aren’t.

Damn it, you probably have a smaller dick than The Wall.

I told you I don't swing that way bro, keep your pet names and discussion about my dick to yourself, your obsession with me is unhealthy. How many times will you say you're done with responding then go back on your word?)

Anti-SJWism was originally a cudgel that we used against AAA popamole and indie hipster walking simulators that we would have disliked even if they weren't woke. Still strange to me that people go looking for it in niche turn-based RPGs.
Solasta was the canary in the coalmine, always assume it's the default now.

First of all, sorry to disappoint, but there is no "we".
There are many groups of people here, none of which you actually belong to.

Additionally to that, to your possible surprise, the anti-sjw sentiment was targeted not at "AAA popamole", but at... (gasp) SJWism. No matter where it appeared.
Pillars of Eternity CLOSED BETA had its share of backlash when they reduced the size of tits on female models. Rewrite someone else's history will you? E.g. on wikipedia, removing Israel's involvement in something or other.

Come on, puppy, don’t do that. Your little friends are coming to back you up because otherwise you’d feel alone. Now they’re coming and derailing the conversation, as always.

Come on, little puppy, don’t worry.

Way earlier than that. Siege of Dragonspear (yes, I know, not turn-based).

That was when I realized, "Oh man, this stuff is not going away. It's not just about twee pixel art platformers made by dudes with weird facial hair anymore."

For me that was a "Canadians will do as Canadians do" moment and not necessarily part of a larger global trend. :P Veilguard was a natural outcome of Canadian values.

Probably another one who's been cucked by Slavs.

By "stuff" I don't mean just what's in the games, but also the reactions to it.

I thought people might go "Well okay this stuff is dumb, but this is a D&D RPG so let's try it", like they did with Bioware romances during the 2000s. Nope, it became a shitstorm that made the game semi-untouchable.

Nobody actually cares what you think, because you don't actually own this place.

He'll own this place 100%. I'm sure he's already floated actual offers.
He may even send anonymous complaints to the Autralian police on occasion to keep the subject alive.

God no, I'm incredibly lazy and don't want the responsibility.

I sympathise with that since if I'm interested in a game I'd rather read the impressions of other people playing it, but even if you're pro-splitting the more critical meta thread could still stay in GRPG provided the discussion remains centered on that game and its devs and doesn't veer off-topic. There were a few different threads for BG3 and only one of them ended up in Gaming Drama AFAIK, seems like a decent compromise between visibility and not disrupting the enjoyment of people actually playing the game.

He's splitting threads on unreleased games. Who's enjoying the gameplay of unreleased games?
