Today, Reddit's /r/KotakuInAction community joined Win.

From their announcement:

In addition, we are launching our lifeboat site officially. It's still mostly barebones, as we are having some complications with importing the CSS (as a simple copypaste from reddit would not function properly), but that should hopefully be resolved over the next week or so. So without further ado, I present to you https://kotakuinaction.win/ This site will have similar-yet-lighter rules to what you all are used to here, as we have a few things that become unnecessary due to different sitewide rules/TOS to worry about there. As we get the CSS and such functional we will get the new rules list up and running, but until then please treat it as being under effectively the same rules as here, with a bit lighter hand regarding some of the more insane things that we have had to deal with being pushed in place from above either by order or by watching precedent being put in place based on admin action against specific posts/comments/users.

See their full announcement here.

Your account here works across all Win sites. You will need to sign in separately, but the credentials work.

The community is now available at KotakuInAction.win

OBJECTION

KotakuInAction was run by a bunch of mods that hate their users. In response, KotakuInAction2 is the actual heir to that movement.

In a nutshell, the mods installed various rules against the wishes of the users, publicly talked shit about them, and delete submissions in order to resubmit under their own accounts for karma and relevance.

These guys are controlled opposition. MODS please keep a very very close eye on the permissions you give them.

We're accused of similar things, and worse - so these kind of accusations don't hold much weight. However, we aren't taking a side. Two similar communities are both welcome on Win.

You're going to regret this. Just saying.
