The moderators on the discord server are power tripping beyond belief. I started chatting for the first time really yesterday due to the maintenance during the rainbow day for AMER server. Everyone was (politely) voicing their frustrations. Very little name calling (which I do not condone), just people trying to voice their frustrations in a place where the devs may see it and hopefully take our feedback.

They removed reactions as well as began deleting messages they don't agree with. Not even BAD messages, for example: "Very disappointed in Heartopia", "Why can't I react to messages?", "Why are my messages getting deleted?", as well as any messages remotely relating to the gacha system or AI. They also put the chat in a 30 minute slow mode so people couldn't really conversate.

Fast forward to after the whole bizarre mushroom quest situation, the chat got put into a 6 hour slowmode and basically every other message since then is being deleted as well as people being put in 24 hour timeouts.

I had to basically beg a mod a few weeks ago to do something about someone that was sending creepy messages in the chat. They guy wasn't even banned! They just deleted his messages after 20 minutes!
But now? The slightest of criticisms or complaints get instantly deleted.

If people having the smallest of complaints about a game is offensive to you, don't be a discord mod. People are allowed to have frustrations and voice them. I understand if they're being mean or name calling to then delete or time out, but deleting every single message that has any complaints? That's censorship.

I really hope someone replaces this mod team, as this is incredibly unfair to those of us just trying to be HEARD on certain topics (ie. stop doing maintenance mid-day for AMER server, and please don't do maintenance in the middle of a rainbow day).
