Steam threads deleted by moderators for no reason

Another reason why it's good to have independent forums like this one.

Earlier today, I shared the link to my short lore guide on the Steam Conquest of Eo forum, to to get the thread deleted without warning, explanation and without my breaking any of steam's rules.

With moderation like this from THQN's community team, it's no wonder the official SpellForce hubs have little to no activity.

Oh trust me, you have not seen shit. They censor and bully people all around since 2018 who do not agree with them, report issues and bugs, give critique or try to inform other players. What they are doing is one huge Scam opperation to sell shit to players who do not know better of jhorrible and broken products they are about to buy. They censor and remove anything that informs people on what is truly going on with their products.

Let me give everyone some examples of just the peak of the iceberg (all what is listed here was very fast deleted by them and the people banned):

No Support and Bug reports on public forums to make sure people do not know about the quaklity of their "games".

Critics and call outs of the horrible team and story of their latest scams

Censorship, bullying and community bans for unhappy users and even their own developers who are not in line with their "vision"!

A so called "Community Manager" who lies as he breathes (strong indication of mental issues, so do see this as a listing point and not a personal attack) and censors/bans anything that could hurt sales with true reports/feedback of their scams.

Please keep in mind that all these are just the peak of the iceberg of they have all doen in just the last years. Nobody its a dead place since anyone who still hast more then 3 braincells connected with each other will not go there.

Yea really sad to see, it's not the first time for me either that something gets deleted for absolutely no valid reason. You'd think that in these situations, you'd at least get a warning (even though I still wouldn't agree with the reason for the deletion/ban), but nothing.

Just a very sad example of when community moderators rather protect the company than the community.

Oh trust me, this is just the continuation of the :Deadjowood: policy. They even wiped the old forum just to get rid of all these "buyer be aware" threads poppung up there hurting their scam-sales.

Let me share some the collected community feedback, that i was able to preserve, ever since this disgusting 3rd game made it to surface.

Reminder ALL what you can see here is deleted/censored by :THQNordic: and their henchman. THX to NeoX for saving some of them that i missed.

All these were just normal user feedback and it got all deleted/removed/censored for the sake of creating a scam-bubble where people cann fall for faulty products!

Shameful, but you can see where that has gotten them with SF3 - game has fewer player than SF1 on steam alone, and that's not even counting people playing on GoG and Retail. I wonder how long it'll take them to learn that this type of management will never net them a positive outcome.

The thing with the writer where he says he hates the series and the fans is also a thing that always riles me up. Not only did they try to hide and censor the fact that he said it, but he wasn't even punished for it since he was allowed to stay on the team to work on the next SF3 expansion. Honestly unthinkable for any company that holds itself to some kind of standard - should have been released on the spot.

Actually by todays standards, a writer, or actor, or any official liason to any game/tv show/movie that badmouth on its audience/fans are the ones to keep around since usually those belong to the woke crowd and can't be touched but instead praised in order to increase their ESG score.

Story/Lore/Canon/Pleasing the fans or whatever you want to call it is secondary. Doens't matter for this people.

That, and the writer paygrade as I'm sure :THQNordic: went for the cheapest people they could find. That's the only logical explaination for the sheer amount of dinosaur crap they produced on SF3. :motz:
