Note on Removed "Offline CIG" Post
We're wanted to make a quick announcement about a removed post before it leads to speculation about why.
Today there was a post about a program that allowed you to "play Star Citizen offline" which was downloaded through GitHub. CIG reached out to us directly and made an informal DMCA for the post to be removed. We want to be very clear that this subreddit is not beholden to CIGs ToS itself BUT Reddit ToS does allow copyright holders to request removal of content if it violates their copyright and therefore we removed it. While it likely can be debated whether or not this actually violates their copyright/legal protections (that's for them and their lawyers to figure out), we have removed it in good faith.
Now before people start claiming that we are beholden to CIG and answer to them, this is only the second time CIG has ever made a request directly to us with the other being an indisputable copyright violation back in the 890J release days. We will never moderate this subreddit based on CIGs personal belief as to how we should, but this one was close enough to the line that we want to do our best to follow Reddit's ToS.
Cheers,
r/starcitizen Mod Team
