I found images and a description of a board game I invented and marketed the site.The instruction booklet shown in the images is registered withe U.S. copyright office.I provided BoardGameGeek with a scan of page one of the Certificate of Copyright Registration, proving I am the owner of the copyright.The front cover of the instruction manual also contains my autograph, which can be used for identify theft.The front cover also contains contact information.The webpage for this game also contains completely false information about the game that was lifted from another wiki type site. It is obvious that this third party site, as well as the user reposting it to BoardGameGeek, do not possess a copy of the instruction booklet as none of the information posted is in the instruction booklet.The webpage for this game also contains a image of a pirated copy of my game.I removed the false information from the description and added captions to the images stating that the image should be removed for copyright infringement.BoardGameGeek's response was to accuse me of vandalism, ban be from editing again, and the restoration of the false information.BoardGameGeek engages in copyright theft, doxing, the encouragement of piracy and the publication of false and unverified information.

Boardgamegeek is a great source for all things board game. I have consumed and contributed much over the years."Octavian" (BGG administrator) however has a record of deleting posts that he feels are "inflammatory or argumentative". A noble thought. However, as usually is the case when acting on this level of power, the controller of said power ("Octavian" in this case) clearly allows his personal prejudices to show through. I have seen numerous inflammatory posts supporting leftest thought left up permanently (challenge me and I will demonstrate). But if somebody posts something speaking against those leftists thoughts, even if written respectfully and courteously, he will remove them. I've seen it happen numerous times, and numerous people have witnessed/discussed it. And these are game-related discussions. Many games deal with "controversial topics", and it seems if the point being made supports current left view points, they can stay,... even if generally disrespectful of others opinions and/or personally offensive. Argue against those points, your post is removed.It is a shame that BGG supports this cancel culture. Even though I personally am middle of the road politically speaking, I will no longer contribute to BGG simply because I can not stand such selfish, single-minded, un-American thought/action. I hope BGG makes some changes in the future. I am only speaking of games/gamers in this post, but this single-sided cancel culture is hugely pervasive in society now. It stands in the very face of what this country is all about. Freedom of speech (even if I don't like what you have to say), the sharing of ideas, this is what makes the US special.
