    tbh I don't think they are cancelling a critic of the game or anything - just a shitty player in their server so more like "you must suffer if you ruin the thing i enjoy" which is still laughable because it is a flight sim server - but I don't have context :shrug-outta-hecks:

    Amazingly funny confluence of :gamer gulag: and :discord-mod: where I am thankfully so removed from either side that I can laugh at both.

      Without further context, it's unclear why the person was banned, but got the "you must be a neet without a real job" :grillman: browbeating about it, which more often than not is done as a knee-jerk reaction toward anyone rocking the boat. In a flight sim forum, it's plausible, maybe even likely, because the flight sim itself was criticized somehow.

      Ever see how some people go into a foaming rage if someone proposes an easy mode, or even disability accessibility options, in a Real True Hardcore G!mer No Handholding Prepare To Die GOTY Edition(tm) game?

      EDIT: Or worse, ever see that reaction that some Epic G!mers have when the corporation itself is criticized for harboring sex pests or otherwise mistreating its workers to get the consumer goods out faster?

      In both cases, I've seen exactly that sentiment there, almost word for word, as a putdown.
