Here's how it applies directly to making good games. If Tshirt booth and others like him are becoming so discouraged by the tone of the forums recently and decide not to participate then we ALL suffer. Or at least I know my games will suffer if T and others check out.
I think by making a thread like this is completely disrespectful to Hunnekoenig and will gain you no positive reputation on these forums. Not everyone is perfect, some are more opinionated than others and give different points of views, and you must come to respect that. If Hunnekoenig was bashing others creative works or doing nothing than trolling, then it might be a different story. We are a community here, we want to get to know each other and we do that by socializing, even if it is off topic. If you strictly want information on GameSalad and nothing else, well the Wiki is one click away and you don't have to worry about any of us and our "opinions".
I've been here for a while, I've mainly been a long time lurker and there after became a full member to chime in. While I do think the community here is solid, its not the same as it used to be and it only makes it worse to see posts like this. I agree there needs to be some sort of moderation to help keep it clean. We have great people here that are extremely helpful, but as T-shirt said, because of stuff like this, keeps us away from being more involved.
I wonder if the recently registered user who started this forum topic could therefore be one of the devs/gendai folks since that user joined the forums the day the post went up and now he is banned. Pretty crazy.
I agree with Photics, close (or delete if there is no close) this thread.
Okay, guys... Just to keep everyone on the same page, we are closing this thread. Hunnenkoenig has been placed on a temporary ban and we're actively talking with him to determine how long the ban will last.
It's our goal at GameSalad to have a great community with a friendly environment where it's easy for people to communicate freely. We attempt to have hands-off approach here, and try to let the forums be as loose and free as possible. Unfortunately, people sometimes cross the line and we have to take action.
I hope this situation can be considered resolved. This thread is now closed.

We really don't want that to happen!

Personally, I think this thread should not only be closed, but deleted.

Time to move on - onward and upward.
