Russian players

[Ze Monstah]

Exactly. This is a stupid suggestion, why punish everyone ever associated with Russia based on the actions of their government?

The point is to increase the consequences of a nation declaring war, to make it maybe not do it in the future.
Banning from a gaming site is minor, but this and others thousands minor others thing can make a good difference on the moral of a nation.

I personnally understand that reasonning

This is the exact thing that I couldn't express in fewer words. Bless !
