The 3-Strikes Policy - Is it really a good thing?

[Penthea]

I think it's crazy that a game rated for teens doesn't have a strike removal policy. There are very few people who can claim that they never did or said anything stupid when they were a teenager, and then later cringe about those things as they got older. There are players in the game right now who have strikes on their accounts over stupid stuff they did years ago but would never even dream of doing now.

I really really really hate the idea that something dumb you did years ago when you were a different person can still negatively affect you today even after you learned and matured from it.

Strikes should be removed after a period of good behaviour. The more severe the offense, the longer it takes to be removed. Although some stuff should stay on your account such as cheating or severely inappropriate behavior such as stalking because these are particularly strong offenses. Can't be compared with someone dropping a F bomb.

Cancel culture is why I had to unsubscribe from many youtubers and unfollow a lot of twitter accounts. I got tired of the whole "you said this awful thing once and even though for the past ten years you have been nothing but a good influence it means nothing because of that one bad thing". These people aren't trying to make the world a better place, they're trying to make themselves feel good by destroying someone else. It's revolting behaviour.
