This toxicity is not limited to mere words. Neon highlights an alarming trend where companies like Wizard Tower Games and others involved in the TSR revival have been subjected to blackmail and threats. Anonymous emails threaten to destroy reputations, harm sponsors, and leverage social media to attack businesses that associate with the TSRebirth project.

These messages included vile language, threats of violence, and blackmail—behaviors reminiscent of terrorism rather than industry discourse. Law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, have gotten involved, emphasizing the seriousness of such tactics.
