I found this interesting. Many people seem to emulate this guy here, especially in the discord where they enjoy being a troll and harassing people. Maybe those people should also take time off to learn how not to bully and harass people. Its the original reason I quit Factorio and tell everyone I meet that the game has a disgraceful set of moderators and admins running the community. I don't know about the devs, but I know the discord mods and admins are disgraceful because they too, harassed me for the lulz, and then spread lies to other communities about me having me banned from those as well. Hell, I even tried to ignore some of the trolls by blocking, they kept making new accounts or getting other accounts there to harass me too and the admins allowed it. Thought it was funny so the let it happen.
I understand that I have no empathy myself, but I don't go around trolling and harassing people for shits and giggles. You respect me, I respect you.
I fully expect this topic to be deleted and I'm betting I'll even be harassed further or banned. It'll just show how toxic the Factorio community really is and how you all like to emulate being toxic and destructive to anyone who's slightly different from you.
But who knows, I hear there's a few good devs here that are actually nice, maybe things can change, maybe Factorio can improve and have a more positive reputation. Perhaps there's a lesson to be learnt here, but I doubt anyone will have the chance to see this. I'll simply have to back this page up with a screenshot just in case.
