“Absolute joke of a moderation team. I was speaking of my home country and got accused and then banned because of racism. Went to Discord and a moderator was clearly racist to me but hey, double standards are fine right?”
“FATAL FLAW. This game basically robbed me due to an in-game flaw that was not my fault. Me and my brother really enjoyed this game so we bought some stuff with the micro transactions. And as far as I can tell it was we were on the same IP…”
