Multiple game creators describe ineffective moderation on the platform, resulting in unchecked hatred in forums and targeted campaigns of negative ‘anti-woke’ reviews
Fucking hell. You were not kidding. This was posted five days ago! The comments on that review are even more vile, to the point where I don’t even think I can show them here.
That review is no longer there, probably someone reported it. I think lots of these suffer from bystander effect, where people see it get indignant about being there but don’t report them, so they stay there.
It’s also easy to think nothing is happening because Valve takes their sweet time getting around to reports, and while they will eventually tell you “something was done” if something was done, they won’t give you any way to find out what was done or what report they’re even referring to. You just get that generic “something was done” message.
