When folks say the want "no real world politics in their gaming" what they really mean is they don't want current political issues and narratives in their gaming.

You know what I dislike? When someone heavily pushes their customers to share their project on social media (because places DragonsFoot have deleted their posts.)

I've had a huge spike in the TenkarsTavern.com traffic ranking over the past few weeks, but it certainly isnt because of any of my gaming content posts - which are some of my weaker trafficked posts. Is free gaming content less valued?
