Banned in Videogames - a Brief History
Today’s article is MAINLY about lifetime, universal, or at least long-term banning.
Let’s break down the component parts first of all. No discussion of legal terms is complete without a glossary, so I’m going to give you the abridged version. There will also be a referral for outside reading to understand the history of community in video games.
