Though, when I posted here on POE2 forum, got my thread also removed for being negative. I think GGG might be trying to stamp out negativity related to POE2 as well as they seem to not really care about negativity around POE1.

While it's arguable that moderation here might seem a bit overzealous or confusing at times, I keep roasting PoE Deuce all the time and my posts have not been removed. I do not even hide my disdain for it.

There are laws in place that are supposed to prevent overzealous moderation without proper justification to preserve freedom of speech, specifically if you are from the EU (look it up: DSA and GDPR), and you can even file a complaint to have them check, as all of those actions must be logged.

I'd say it largely boils down to phrasing.

There's a difference between "this mechanic is shit, I hate it" and "whoever made this shit mechanic is a fucking idiot and needs to resign". Not saying you used those exact words, just trying to highlight the difference in wording.

Here is the stuff they banned me on POE2 sub and removed my post here about it:

"and expect 3.28 to be half assed as they go on holiday now so there wont be much dev time after new year"

"They were and are not ready to fully support two games. Now, because of holiday, POE1 will get another shit league and they will rush to put together some end game in POE2"

"At this point 'GGG said' isn't worth much. They promised so much stuff and just went radio silent on them"

"What happen? They decided to prioritise a league over endgame, league no one asked for",

"It exactly feels like that. I think they have no clue what to do with the end game without making it like POE1."


Is perma ban worthy? I don't think so, but it seems someone really disliked it there and here.

Let me preface this with I'm a huge PoE1 fan. The main reason I believe for that is that no matter how bustedly strong you become, you can always still make a map that's going to kill you. (Though that somewhat changed this last PoE1 season with the nerf to risk scarabs admittedly.) You can always overjuice a boss to the point even your 1m ehp build with tends if not hundreds of millions of DPS is struggling to hurt the thing, and some combination of BS mechanics still kills you, even if you're not entirely sure why half the time.

PoE2 isn't like that. A well designed build just hits a point where... nothing kills you, nothing lives for more than a couple seconds, You never been to look at map mods, or hell even think, you just go forward and everything dies.
Look if you're build is under 100 divs of value, or your one of those "I don't want to be a meta slave" types, this post isn't for you. This is just looking at the high end, and the utter lack of meaningful challenge to be found.

I feel like the lack of difficulty is a bit of a slap in the face as to what this game was originally proposed to be. Ever season it just seems to get easier and easier as we get more options to combat mobs, acquire more meta knowledge, and the mobs themselves seem to be constantly nerfed, and map mods easier to deal with.

Look I'm not saying make the game harder for all the soccer moms, and dad gamers out there who want to struggle bus through the campaign in 2 weeks twice a year, I'm just saying there needs to be something far and beyond where we're getting with full atlas and 6 mod triple tablet t16s.

Like I don't even read the waystones.. there isn't a point, at a certainly point you don't notice a difference in any of the mods because they just don't do enough.

I think in the long run it's the kind of thing that leads to burnout by your most dedicated players.

Most of the people here complaining about reddit, I guarantee they tried to say something hateful or antagnostic.

I have had zero issues with reddit.

I visit the POE2 reddit all the time, in fact its much better than this site (For discussions I mean, and I think even GGG would agree with me on that, because they use reddit all the time ( and used to post there before all the POE1 players angry that GGG is focusing more on POE2, decided to harass them whenever they did.) , and far more active as well.


I also create threads there and they nefver get deleted unless I delete them.

So I guarantee you that OP and everyone else here complaining about how reddit sucks cuz they get banned easily, are just lying about themselves breaking the rules and harassing or trolling or some other rule they broke .

I also dont harass people there and never try to spread racism, bigotry or other hateful messages.
