Collective shout seems to have expanded its scope: games like cult classic Fear And Hunger have been removed from Itch.io, while horror game VILE: Exhumed has been delisted from Steam just a week after launch.

Why cant the payment processors just fucking ignore them oh my god

The people who would typically be expected to push back against collective shout also typically wouldn't be expected to do anything effective whereas the people involved with collective shout are the type of people who give politicians money.

I think all the higher ups are afraid to admit they consume adult content so they will act as if it's wrong.

Yeah, because that's an actual payment option isn't it?

That is the intention. You could choose to convert, hold, transfer to your needs.

Right okay so steam are going to accept my positive vibes are they?

Next time you decide to make a truly stupid comment, perhaps you could put some effort into it making some kind of coherent sense, otherwise you sound like an utter prat.

Mate, it just requires an address to transfer to. Nothing stopping an organisation like steam from making a wallet and accepting funds. This level of new inconvenience introduced might make it more appealing, not stupid.
