That is definitely ban worthy by any game developer.
And no, not all games crash for a similar reason. That is like saying that only 2+2 can equal 4. We all know that to not be true.
The venn diagram of what people who aren't programmers think causes crashes and what actually causes crashes is two circles a mile apart.
I remember this... https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/discussions/forum/30/532101678384577178/
Yep, the community is so awful, how dare they ban someone for telling people to REINSTALL their OS to fix a bug (that won't fix a bug), or telling them to do things that will brick their computer.
How dare they actually protect users who might be guilable enough to damage their PC by following malicious advice. They should totally let people tell users to rinse their PC out with water to clean out the dust, or to delete all those pesky system files that take up space.
Yep, in this case if you read the thread, the excuse was a person posting advice that could destroy people's PC's. If someone was posting that they should be banned. Just like if someone tried to sell a dangerous chemical as a "Cure" that could hurt people.
Also what you shouldn't do is recommending people to use Windows recovery to "fix" outdated/broken mods (which it won't) or even recommend others to mess around with the registry on their PC.
I know that you got a more personal vendetta against that community due to your actions that got you banned there. Has been discussed already elsewhere.
I mean its no different then a medical forum banning someone who was asking for advice on cancer treatment and told to try this "treatment" which consists of mixing bleach and pomegranate juice and then drinking it....................
I have seen super long punishments (even permanent) for people telling others to do things that would definitely or most likely damage their systems, and permanent community removal when those things would result in the death of the user if following bad information.
Thus, a Dev taking action on anything from trolling, endless arguing, ban evasion on alts, all the way to unhelpful posts that can damage peoples PCs is definitely actionable.
The people removed from that hub have definitely been removed for good reasons.
The community is quite helpful and even knows when specific game-mods are causing issues and tell people to disable them until the mod-creator updates it, which is typically within hours to days at the most depending on the mod creator.
They're not going to shutdown that hub, lol.
