          Some folks in the comments are demonstrating extraordinary patience and doing the laborious debate with those who insist upon arguing the very premise. I see you, and appreciate you.

          I feel like this whole conversation needs to be a bunch of hikers around a campfire with their smartphones so when its done, you can zoom out to see the group of bears looming just behind them. We know what happens next. ;)

          I am a little lost. It seems as if something significant happened among board game content creators and I only see little snippets of the story. What happened ? I am sorry for everyone’s pain. Truly.

          The story is "gaming social media as a whole."
