Why shouldn't it have been banned? Reddit isn't a democracy or a public square. Each sub exists solely at the pleasure of the administration. That administration has been super lenient, which is why shitty subs still exist.

FPH crossed a line and caused real world problems for reddit. What would you do if a friend on the elder scrolls online caused people to call your house, and for people to harass you about his behavior in real life? You disassociate, which is exactly what reddit did.

This isn't about internet censorship or free speech, this is about really shitty people having a space they never actually owned taken from them, and then squealing about it publicly. Rather than realize that their behavior was the cause of this, they find anything under the sun to blame.

I'm calling bullshit on the idea you didn't know. I'm betting that you were on it all the time. Keep in mind that you being a member of fph is much better than the idea that you are being a whiteknight for people who deserve nothing but scorn.
