Thank you for writing a thoughtful message for Rafayel Mains. 🐟💕.
No one is indebted or needs to apologize on behalf of other's actions, but their own. However, it's always nice to see people take the time to speak on it. #ValkoIsLoved#Rafayel
I've spoken about this before, but I think I was a little ambiguous, so let me be real clear this time: Valko is a beautiful, well designed character, and he can stand on his own. You don't need to insult Rafayel in order to praise him. Not only is that incredibly disrespectful to the people who main him, but using his appearance to mock him or question his masculinity only shows that you're not that different from the people who drag Valko through the mud.
I'm making this attempt to call out this behavior because this is a serious issue that affects the community as a whole. There's no need to disrespect other LIs just because they don't fit your tastes.
And no, that person isn't some isolated, insignificant exception. This is an issue I've seen more than once in this community, and I find it utterly disgusting.
Obviously, not everyone is like this. I know that, and I've met wonderful people here. There are so many sweet and kind people, and I couldn't be more thankful for all the love I've seen in the Valko community, you all gave me a reason to keep fighting for what's right.
But it gets to a point where I can't keep turning a blind eye to this specific situation.
I wish I had never seen that. It felt like swallowing poison. I was fine reading those comments because I kept telling myself, "Oh well, it's just a stupid opinion." But this time, something about it really got to me. After all, she's become a voice within her own aggressive community, and the ideas behind those comments are incredibly harmful.
I'm sorry. I think this time I reached my breaking point. I know I'll feel better later, but right now, I just feel hurt and exhausted. It felt so wrong, and I couldn't keep pretending it didn't affect me. I just need some time to heal.
But seriously, this meaningless comparison has to stop for once. If we want to mark the difference within our community, we can start by being the difference. After all, there are people of every taste and every LI in this community, and that's why we should respect each other and the LIs we love.

Regarding the 上海市新闻出版局 letter dated 25.08.2026 that caused all the noise
We neither claim nor dispute its authenticity. It doesn't matter here — see the conclusion.
What is known about its origin: several petitioners in different regions have shown an identical text, along with the 信访 chain — an acknowledgement of receipt dated 07.07.2026 and the reply dated 25.08.2026. We cannot verify this independently.
Analysis of the text
The regulator's requirements to the company are listed verbatim: take player sentiment seriously, comply with the law, bear social responsibility, strengthen the content review mechanism, uphold the cultural baseline. The name 敖尹 (Ao Yin / Valko) does not appear in this section. There is no requirement in the letter to cancel, remove, or ban the character.
The cancellation is described separately: 叠纸公司…明确宣布取消新男主"敖尹"的上线与开发安排 — "the company announced the cancellation of the release and development." The subject is the company, the verb is "announced." A statement of someone else's decision.
There is no "order → compliance" link: no 责令, no 根据我局要求, no 按照整改通知. In the same bureau's reply regarding Coquelic (2024), that link is stated outright. Here it is absent.
The most the text supports: the company was summoned for regulatory talks (约谈) between June 22 and 29.
What the text does not contain: an order to cancel, a ban on the character's return, a requirement to delete files, or the reason for the summons (it says only 引发多维度争议 — "gave rise to multi-dimensional controversy," but which issue is meant is unknown, since at that moment the criticism covered 0731, which was in Xavier's storyline, and the boiling pot, which relates to the kitchen promo).
Open question. The petition was accepted on July 7 — after the company cancelled 敖尹 on June 30. It could no longer have been demanding a cancellation. In that case the cancellation appears in the reply as an argument that the matter is closed, not as compliance with an order.
Conclusion. If the letter is genuine, it speaks of pressure but not of an order, and it does not close off the character's return, since that decision remains entirely the company's. If it is fake, it says nothing at all. In neither case does it support the claim that "the regulator ordered 敖尹 cancelled."
So you can relax. The antis are very nervous right now, because they can see that without the boycotters the game isn't making its usual revenue and isn't even taking the top spot (no free pulls were given), and that the Valkyries bought 25 billboards at Cologne Airport. They are terrified that the company is already preparing for his return — which is exactly why they still won't let it go. Because as it turns out, the boycotters are the core paying audience. That's why they keep throwing material like this at us while things are going well for us. And even if they weren't — this is just an attempt to sting us, the way they always have.
So... I don't know what the antis were trying to achieve by spreading this, but they've actually helped us and confirmed what we suspected — the cancellation was the company's own decision. And a company's decision can be reversed ;)
Don't take the bait. Post about Valko, block antis so you don't have to see their messages and their attempts to needle you, don't fight each other, don't log into the game and don't spend. That's all we need to care about right now. Let's tell the whole world how much we love Valko!

@X_Arienne250808 2/2
As an analogy a radical is like a worker burning down your own workplace because the boss pays low wages. Great now the whole building gone and so is your job. You can still demand change without resorting to extreme measures.
@X_Arienne250808 1/2 Do ppl even know what a boycott usually is. Workers/consumers demanding changes and accommodation from a business. If a business gets shut down completely or damaged so much, it looses it resources to even address people concerns.
@X_Arienne250808 Accounts with large activity are bound to know each other. The most basic concept in any social forum.
If you have emails, chat logs, anything then this... then maybe you have a point. But this is just like low resolution thinking.
to anyone who still has doubts that there was a smear campaign/black water army tactics used against PPG, i'm sharing this video with permission from its original creator that breaks down the early stages of the controversy to demonstrate that it could not have been organic
✦ A surprise has arrived in Cologne.
A wonderful gift for every Valkyrie who continues to stand with Valko — made possible by one kind and anonymous Valkyrie.
From 24–30 August, 25 digital screens across Cologne Bonn Airport will carry one message:
BRING VALKO BACK.
📍 Cologne Bonn Airport
Kennedystraße, 51147 Cologne, Germany
Terminal 1 & Terminal 2
Arrivals · Check-in · Security · Departures
Approx. once every 2 minutes
Check the site for more details: https://t.co/cuhnpNxx06
Behind anonymity is a quiet kind of devotion.
This airport placement was independently funded and arranged by one anonymous Valkyrie. We are honored to announce and share it on her behalf.
The Koko Letter Bureau / Letters for Valko is helping document and amplify the campaign. The airport placement itself — including its funding, arrangement, and displayed advertising content — belongs entirely to her independent action.
To the Valkyrie who made this possible: thank you for giving this message a place to be seen.
And to every Valkyrie still waiting with us:
See you in Cologne. 🐺
We hope the day we finally get to meet him arrives soon.

@tiredaf93 Touching grass is code for touching that green 💴.
Jokes aside does this person not know there’s nuances* to this situation. You can criticize a company without agreeing every little negative argument.
@miovomie@retiredforcolin@Augustiiiinea I would hope that anyone like that subreddit, should probably just stick with the chat-logs. Doesn’t make any sense for those individuals to be posting the 🍫 person it to begin with.
What’s actually fair is holding individuals accountable. Novel concept for some apparently.
@babyjie1102@lovdX5 Did you know you can die from chocolate. It’s just that humans are larger and process the stimulant with enzymes.
But like I said before, a werewolf is a fictional being that can transform into a human with a different digestive tract and enzymes.
@miovomie@retiredforcolin@Augustiiiinea Based on the translation X gave me. Just to clarify. The person I posted has Private chat-logs of doing the opposite of my screencaps. Very same user.
Is this fair way to represent what you are saying?
CDG went from accountability to shifting blame. We’ve reduced their crazy behavior to just sending “cow dung”
What about the funeral flowers, harassing employees, screaming & throwing tantrums outside HQ or the livestream with a weapon outside Infold requiring police protection
@babyjie1102@lovdX5 There’s a mermaid, dragon and Xavier defies a regular human life. It’s already not true to the real world in that sense.
If you mean some ppl might give dogs chocolate. That’s their own fault for not knowing. In a fictional world the rules for Valko is that since hes 1/2 human.
@babyjie1102@lovdX5 I'm pretty sure most people know this. Lads is a fictional world where a werewolf likes chocolate, because it's fiction. I don't understand how this is...
