Ah yes the same people who run that "more welcoming place" dog piled and harassed the guy on Reddit leading to two of them getting permabanned from Reddit for violating the content policies regarding harassment, doxxing and more.

Sometimes, people are bad the whole way round. Lesser of two evils may be necessary.

Sorry, I have not witnessed that. Personally, I was only attacked by an admin on one of these two forums.

It's okay to have some bad people, every community has those. But problems do arise if these people are the people in charge.

I understand. Raion of the pre-2021 era was prone to making a lot of edgy and offensive jokes. He made a joke about me being Indian and I kinda just went "really bro?". He expressed regret when I talked to him in 2022 about it. I'm just not able to excuse a bunch of grown men attempting to call him a criminal for urbex or hold his past against them forever.
