Well, this is really about the community around the game, but this feels like it belongs in games.
Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup is a roguelike RPG that can be played online or downloaded and played offline. It's pretty fun, and some of the development philosophy makes good sense, like trying to minimize tedious boring gameplay (Think pudding farming in nethack).
However, the devs have gotten more and more SJWish over time, and the forum is quite thought policed.
Here's a very amusing example of this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/dcss/comments/5p249j/sword_of_jihad_renamed/
Basically, a troll claims to be muslim, and offended by this sword of jihad artifact. The devs immediately fold and rename it the sword of the zealot. Nevermind that the word zealot has anti-jewish overtones historically...
https://crawl.develz.org/tavern/viewforum.php
This is the game design subforum, which usually has the spergiest behavior.
The devs like to randomly change the gender of monsters between revisions for some reason, then get all "Why do you care" when people ask about why it's being done.
There's a user named Minmay AKA Duvessa, a huge asshole with the backing of the administration, because they're kinda sorta maybe trans? Or at least they feel the need to post their sex dreams about themselves and their female elven alter ego. They're a minor lolcow at least.
Anyone else familiar with this place, and want to tell some horror stories of their own? I'd love to hear any dirt people have on Minmay, dpeg, lasty, pleasingfungus, or any of the regular forum dictator devs.
