No you’re not.
What you’re strict about is removal of comments and locking threads that criticise LE, while ignoring everyone’s else blatant attack towards players that do criticize the game, and preventing them to share anything without being constantly attacked and harassed and told how wrong they are, meanwhile there are myriad of threads of people praising LE, and not 1 dissenting player has went there to tell them how wrong they are for thinking like that.
Exibit A: Where players are pointing out their opinions, and tons of others telling them how wrong they are for expressing their opinions.

Staff locked my account for a whole week for making 3 comments that had not 1 insulting remark towards anyone. The reason was of provocative content while defending my opinions. How does one post provocative content if they’re defend their opinions? Are provocative opinions illegal here? If any?
At most I made 1 comment where I implied a person made a dumb reply, and it was in regards to what they typed, I didn’t call them dumb. We’re all dumb about certain things in certain isolated moments. Nobody is perfect.
Exibit B: People praising what they like about LE, and not 1 comment telling them they’re wrong.
These examples are abundant on the forum. You allow players to gaslight others, but I guess it’s perfectly fine when they’re on the side of “the game is perfect”.
Every dissenting opinion is met with the same aggressive “no, you’re wrong” comments which get more and more provocative, and nobody is doing anything about it.
If you value criticism this wouldn’t be the case.
I emailed other EHG staff about my wrongful mute, with examples, and the reasons and every comment I made, and 1 full week later, nobody has yet to reply to it. I was singled out, branded as the aggressor for defending my opinion, meanwhile everyone else who were free to tell me how wrong I am and prevented me and everyone else in that thread express their opinions freely without being called out about how wrong they are as if everyone praising the game is an authority of what a good game is supposed to be.
There has not been a reply to my email and request for other staff other than the one who wrongfully muted me to review my case, and nobody replied because frankly, you don’t really care…
So I removed the game from my library. You wouldn’t even delete my forum account. I sent the request several times. And now, when I see blatant bs like this, I had to buy it again just to post here.
TLDR: You only care about moderating the criticisms, and nothing else while turning a blind eye to everyone that harasses the people that express them.
Time to refund. Bye~
Edit to clarify:
You have been silenced from the forum until June 1, 2024, 2:43am.

Instigating, player harassment, and trolling. Okay sure.
I’d like to challenge anyone to point out where in the code of conduct is “too combative” a reason to mute someone, review the locked thread, and point out where I have broken the code of conduct.
It’s also interesting that it’s the same moderator in question.
