The best example are the ones that replace "Type 1 / Type 2" with "Male / Female" in games where you create a character. Banned. Another is the one that simply replaced all the pride flags with american flags in Spider-Man. Banned.

Oh so they came to their senses because of the backlash over their pathetic banning of this mod? That’s something at least, but they won’t be getting any praise from me until they stop banning things like this in the first place.
If you'd actually read the explanation they posted, it'd be clear that they removed the mod because the uploader was breaking the rules, not because the mod itself was bad.
Which is the case for all other similar cases as well, AFAIK.
Honestly not noticed that because I just don't give a shit. It's a pride flag, surely it isn't going to hurt even the most delicate snowflake.
So surely someone playing on their pc with American flags instead of pride flags isn’t going to hurt even the most delicate snowflake?
I just said I don't give a shit.
I love seeing conservative snowflakes complaining about censorship when it's literally the most stupid small changes, you make it sound like the game is unplayable because it's acknowledges/supports minorities in non-impactful ways.
But no mention of the games and mods that let you play out genocide/rape.
It's the pride flags that are the problem. /s
Way to miss the point. The point is that mods as trivial as the ones I said in single player games were banned because the owner didn’t like them, while the owner allowed the mods like you mentioned.
The point is as a moral normal human being you should not be getting upset and bitching about a coloured flag. There are so many terrible awful things happening in the world and a rainbow flag sends you into a fury.
There is something wrong with YOU, not LGBT.
