Tbh? No, not really at all. If your playerbase is so upset with you that they are calling for a boycott within a third party forum you do not own and are required to maintain to sell your game at the forum store, where boycott discussion isnt a site rule, not only do you really not have much ground to stand on besides being pissy that people dont like your game, youre kicking the hornets nest doing that.
Its the steam forums. As in, the forums where you discuss the product youre buying with other potential and actual buyers. If you cannot be honest about the quality of the wares, you cannot trust the storefront.
I get why they banned those people, but in the sense that I get why a piece of shit gets physical with someone for making a good point in an argument. Youre upset theyve made a point you cant rebut. I get that. Youre still a piece of shit for shoving them.
