No bigotry of any kind allowed. Making racist, sexist, trans-/homo-/queerphobic, otherwise demeaning and hateful comments is not ok. Disabilities and mental illnesses are not to be used as insults and should not be part of your comment unless speaking of your own or absolutely relevant.

No gatekeeping and being rude to people who don't agree with you. Leave “gamer” stereotypes out of your comment (e.g. sexless, neck bearded, teenaged, basement-dwelling, etc). Don't compare people to animals, or otherwise deny their humanity. Even if you think someone is the worst human on the planet, do not wish death or harm upon them.

No "justice porn". Posts regarding legal action and similar is allowed, but celebrating someone being harmed is not.

Before things got very cold between us, some studios were keeping an eye on the Russian market as well. That's supposedly why the queer content in The Legend of Korra was so very, very toned down; the show was doing poorly on its home ground, and Nickelodeon wanted to make some of its money back in Russia.

China is one of the biggest and most powerful overseas markets, although it seems to be in decline right now. But foreign markets definitely have an effect on what we get to see here in the States.
