Sorry but it wasn't like Bubba was some racist, he killed everybody. It's what he does. Including the faces of all the survivors for him to unlock makes sense. I am confused why you brought up the state of the world?

I can see some of your points, but I still disagree the removal of the cosmetics is efficient (or effective for that matter). My ire is aimed at both admittedly. Of course I'm upset with the a-hole trolls/racists, but I am also upset with BHVR for taking an action that punishes the entire community in an effort to mitigate…

I am sorry I respectfully disagree that removing it does anything to reduce the arsenal of racists. Additionally, as it has been said before, the whole lore behind Leatherface is that he wears the skin/faces of his victims. Clearly we will have to agree to disagree. Unfortunately BHVR has already made the change, I just…

They can still be subtle with their racism by targeting those players, with or without the cosmetics? These people will always find ways around things/adapt unfortunately, so I respectfully disagree that it does anything.

Because taking away a neutral tool does absolutely nothing. BHVR will never beef up moderation because....BHVR. I would be grateful* if BHVR realized they shouldn't punish an entire community for a small percentage of players actions.

It's not selfish to see that BHVR is actually not going to change anything. Maybe BHVR shouldn't delete the cosmetics, but instead implement a better reporting system to actual punish the right people?

All that I've read is that it serves as removal of a tool being "weaponized." Which is a weak argument and reasoning, regardless of how it is framed or constructed. It doesn't actually do anything.

What if, instead of taking something away from the whole community and nullifying a character's lore, BHVR actually did something of substance and implemented a functional and appropriate reporting system where you could actually go after the people that are targeting people affected by the a-holes behavior? Instead the…

It would've been better for BHVR to develop and implement a better reporting system that actually helps to target these specific players' actions. Instead BHVR chose to take the easy way out and remove a neutral tool that was being used improperly by a very small percentage of people.

Maybe the character isn't being punished, but the community as a whole is. But how does remving said tool address anything? It does not change one's behavior. It won't make anything better. Plus, that is the character's backstory and lore. He kills people and wears their skin. So actually, his backstory and lore is being…

How exactly is it needed/warranted, it doesn't change anything. These few apples will continue doing what they do best.

That is not a solution. Hell, it can't even be considered a band-aid. BHVR effectively did 2 things: 1) give more power to the racists/trolls because they got what they wanted....a reaction. 2) hurt the enitre community instead of targeting the very small percentage of players that act like a-holes. If you think this is…

How is having cosmetics that 100% represent the character's lore and backstory racist? The player behind the killer may be a troll or racist but not the existence of the cosmetics.

I am fully aware that my position may sound repititious; however, I still consider it necessary to keep mentioning.

I am so confused as to why these cosmetics were removed. I am not even a killer main, but I can 100% sympathize with why these people would be upset. Just because a few racists/trolls went around and harassed some survivors, BHVR has to remove the these cosmetic choices and effectively nullify his whole backstory. This is…
