    Careful, due to a forum made on the Steam Forum pages, and the resulting Original Poster being banned, you might catch a wave of bad PR.

    Appairently, something of a case where a user named " Spoopy Dinosaur" was banned for calling a moderator, a lackluster name, and was server banned across all servers, despite giving a donation of a key. According to the thread, when he asked about the key, he was declined a refund of his donation.

    A couple of posts later, he was banned from the Steam Forums, for setting you up the bomb.

    So, don't be surprised if people come rushing in, and saying bad things.

    If you didn't know, now you do.

    Hope y'all make it out in one piece.

    Sincerely, Lumie of Saxton Hell, Intox, and Phoenix Rises.

    Thank you for your concern, I'm sure we'll be alright. People are never going to be happy.

    But honestly, the user in question made hundreds of harassing comments, insults and threats to the staff, he was asked on numerous occasions but multiple admins to calm down and he only escalated.

    I personally banned him. I have no problem with facing any consequences of that action. It was the right thing to do and I'll stick by it.
