Journalists have quickly risen as some of the most hated group of humans alive. They're right next to lawyers and politicians now.

We need to rename our calendar's era's to: Before Ash & Pikachu and After Ash & Pikachu.
@coolboymew @berkberkman
Maybe an older Ash will make a cameo in a future episode. It wouldn't be the first time that old characters make a return.
But here's a bigger question: what happens to Team Rocket?! Will Jessie & James be retired too?
@coolboymew
Really?! It kinda makes sense, since he became a champion. But it's gonna be hard to find a good replacement, if they plan on going on forever. And then what happens to Pikachu, the literal mascot of everything Pokemon?
@Rasp
I guess... but people have been gay shipping Sasuke x Naruto for decades without issue. I don't think it's right for people to blow their tops off over something like that.
@lottev
I've seen people speculate that they've reused the rules from PUBG, but just edited a few of the things out, that had to do with a multiplayer game.
Someone else here said the rules came from Terraria.
Whatever the case, it sounds likely that they did hire some 3rd party, that is completely clueless about these games, but that has that "anti-harassment/anti-fun" agenda going for them.
@alyx And this is why single player games should be run in a container with no network access. Any questions?
I'm just disappointed that this has escaped notice for so long. This should have garnered widespread attention and revolt, on the levels of Diablo Immoral.
Instead, I found out from a podcast episode, recorded a week ago, from a group of people whose primary focus is men's rights activism.
Fun fact: you cannot tell your friends how much fun you've had while playing Callisto Protocol.
@MechaSilvio
This is not the creation of a nerd. A nerd wouldn't forbid you to tweak .ini files.
This is the creation of a HR and a legal team.
@Curvin
It's their website. I'm as dumbfounded as you are.
@lottev
Not sure what's going on... I haven't looked much into the game. I think whatever legal team made this, has no clue about what the game is. From what I heard, there is no place in the game where you can enter a name/nickname, and yet this code of conduct has rules for that...
It's likely that they don't actually have any means to check that you abide by their rules, unless you Twitch stream it, but this shows that they have some toxic people employed there.
I already wasn't interested in it, this ensure I never play the game.
Just another random person passing by.
The Alyx Vance must go this way anyway.
Gordon Freeman dies in All Dogs Go To Heaven 2.
I wasn't designed to be carried.
En Taro Igel!
Lift me up, let me go...
