Why banning Russian users from this forum isn't a good idea:
1. It's racist. Banning someone of their race is simply racist. Just because they are Russian doesn't mean they support Putin and his invasion. Using this same logic you could say I'm banning anyone from Afghanistan because they're a member of the country where the Taliban have taken over.
2. You'll lose a lot of members, cheats, and overall activity. Here is a list of Popular Russian cheats: Neverlose, Nixware, Legendware, Rawetrip, and all of the LUA Developers for all of these cheats. The point is the Russian HvH community is massive and there will be a loss of interest if you ban all Russians cause most people are here for the free cheats this forum provides (mostly lw pastes made by Russians).
3. New users are indirectly supporting Ukraine. Recently you changed the site logo to represent the Ukrainian flag inside the letters of HvH. If a Russian registered on this forum they are indirectly supporting Ukraine as this is what the site is supporting.
EDIT: It's fine if you don't agree with me, I'm just stating my opinion on this possible change
Don't ban any Russian unless they are proven to support Putin.
After the recent unpleasant incidents related to Ukraine.
The administration of the forum intends to block access to hackvshack.net to Russians in protest, and to show disapproval of Russian actions.
One question, to hackvshack.net community!
Would you accept such an action, from administration of the forum?
