Paradox bans Discord avatars of historical figures born after 1800
Paradox Interactive has banned real-world political and military figures born after January 1, 1800 from being used as Discord profile pictures on its Hearts of Iron 4 server, except official in-game portraits. The move follows a backlash over a moderator banning a user for an Atatürk photo and Steam review-bombing.
- Ban covers real figures born after January 1, 1800
- Official HOI4 in-game portraits remain allowed, except Nazi Germany leaders
- Steam review-bombing followed the Atatürk ban
- Members will get seven days to comply once rules go live
