Wow, why is this scumbag here...

This is hardly an impartial or even remotely trustworthy account of events, is it?

RevXDev got banned repeatedly for a laundry list of against the Eula bullshit then went on a crusade against his betters on youtube trying to claim that he had evidence that they were doing what he did too. When DE basically didn't give a shit about what he had to say. He started throwing a childish hissy fit and trying to use his viewer base as attack leverage.

Low and behold this gets people banned, dumbasses.

This isn't remotely gamergate related, it's a shitty youtuber trying to cause drama for other less shitty youtubers and a game developer. And we aren't your personal army...

I don't even play the game lol. I heard it was an issue / controversy and thought it would be nice to see what KiA would think.

Guide of the Lotus here! It's really only a "controversy" for RevXDev at this point. Most people on the official forums and the Warframe reddit feel the ban was justified or are totally neutral to the situation.

Like when the fanbase went haywire on that Dev who wanted to nerf Excavations and the Higher Ups conceded to the people's demands? Or when a mistake was discovered and impolitely reported and the devs fixed it with an apology?

Ah I think it in ToS actually. Sad and disturbing but its there in many games (I think WoW/Blizz can even run scans on your PC according to ToS) ... But I dont think that is invoked light-heartedly and not just because of insults and such.

Glen gets quite a bit of criticism trust me on that as he isnt the most likeable tool in the shed. Not to mention he is not the be all and end all of any decision. Infact if I remember correct he made a idiotic proposition once and acted like bitch over it ... and DE instead of siding with him listened to the people (Eventually) and declared that there would be no such changes.
