Comic #676: Ban Wave (Patreon)

There is a minor callback to #372 in this comic. Except instead of a NERF officer we have a BAN officer.

This comic refers to a recent wave of bans and subsequent unbans of players using third party programs. The ban was originally meant to target players who were exploiting gathering and cauldron nodes, but ended up banning many users who were only using such software to alter their models and clothing.

I was a bit worried that some readers wouldn't know the context for the comic, which is where the newspaper comes in handy. I use the newspaper in quite a few comics to help provide some easy exposition without requiring a whole lot of dialogue.
