HGiles: Licurg is just trolling. He's going for the shock value. That's vastly different from having a discussion on sensitive topics that might include offensive stuff.
I'm fine with people having different viewpoints. I'm fine with other people doing things I find offensive. I'm *not at all* fine with someone using a rape simulator to get attention. That's what I think is worthy of moderation.
If Licurg had wanted a discussion about rape simulators and hentai, he would have started one. He didn't. Instead he trolled, using rape, which is a serious and life-changing trauma that has harmed many people. One of these things is not like the other.
The first is fine, and actually I would like it. People should think about these issues and examine what offensive means. The second is exploitative. I think that deserves some moderation.
Licurg just put something controversial here. How the topic rolls, well, it's all on us :)
I myself posted a Jimquisition episode dealing with the subject of 'rape vs. murder in games'. Some posts here are pretty serious and deliver good reading material. So, if Licurg was trolling, he failed at it as this topic turned into semi-productive discussion :)
Removing the wish from the wishlist (as something that GOG is not willing to ever release here) is fine. Locking topics, baning people from the forum, giving warnings... well, as long as nobody's making a topic with subject like '[username] is a steaming pile of crap' and filled with personal insults directed at that users, posting porn materials or racist statments and stuff like that - I don't think there is any need for moderation.
