    CO can ban them from posting on their forums if they take it to far.

    The comments are tame as fuck compared to most community/developer interactions.

        You can block emails as well. You can moderate your steam forums and youtube comment section and Twitter replies. I can’t think of a single place where CO is interacting with the community that they can’t block/ban users who are mean.
