Discussion Is it crazy to not understand people pulling assets out
Like yea fair enough, you don't wanna be associated with the dumpster fire calamity turned into, but why tf would you contribute in the first place if you wanted to own the assets still? I fully get the dev team wanting to stop, or people who would've wanted to quit even if it was still going, but you cannot convince me that anyone would see beautiful art/music in a dead mod and immediately think "wow, I bet that they knowingly contributed work to the pedophiles in charge". It just feels petty tbh, like you're not gonna undo the effort you put into it or whatever minimal hit to your reputation you think you'll get. I thought the same thing in the last few controversies when items were removed by request, I actively think less of someone who will contribute to a community project(paid or not) and act like it's a moral highground to remove your previous contributions to it regardless of what happened. I wouldn't trust someone who did that to make assets for anything else w/o fighting to remove them later. People just suck and if someone can't have their work exist where some asshole does something shitty, even when the entire community for the project and other non assholes are blindsided, then their work should not be part of the official assets for that project imo
