So Iron Realms has apparently been banned by those asshats in China. We don't have a lot (barely any) Chinese players so this isn't a big issue but it's weird that they'd bother banning us. We don't even reference anything Chinese or real-world in terms of political entities in our games (they've banned games before for portraying China or Chinese territories in ways they don't like). All I can think of is that either they've just banned MUDs generally (Chinese users can apparently get to our forums, but not our games) or maybe they read a roundtable I was on for IGN, in which I implied the Chinese government are fully of crazies.

So has anyone else had this kind of thing reported from any Chinese users? It's a bit odd China would bother with banning a company so small.
