This is a sensitive topic for me and many other players in the game so let's try to be civil. I'm asking the player base, most of it, to please stop hanging out in Kugane and flooding the shout chat with memes and harassment. Kugane represents a rich culture that is important to some of us and it should be respected. It is an end game hub designed for people like me, people who identify as otaku who have a deep appreciation for Japan, and want to honor it in game.

Please go take your toxicitiy to Rhalgr's reach and leave us alone. Kugane is what we've always wanted - a true place for anime and mange fans to live our dream. It's a safe haven for real fans of Japanese culture and art. Not a place to spam donald trump memes and talk about sex.

Please respect Kugane and just leave it. Do not take this from us. Do not ruin the beauty and majesty, and history that Yoshida-san has given us. It is deeply upsetting to me, and many other true fans of Japanese art, architecture, and history.
