You started this thread by giving a link from a russian government affiliated source. After some comments you backpedaled into claiming you were just providing information and acting as a reporter for the good of OGS.
But then you turn around and wade right into the political discussion that obviously ensued in this thread.
So, are you still claiming to stand apart and
Indeed, I am entitled to express a serious concern. So far you have not made any remark to convince me to change it.
Are you trying to suggest that the matters reported there are not true?
Are you trying to suggest the matters reported in ‘Western Media’ aren’t true?
Yes that would be a shame, but why put the onus on OGS instead of Putin?
You seem to have a lot of faith in the democratic quality of the Russian government, so if you’re so concerned about freedom of expression for people based in Russia, why didn’t you make a plea to the Russian State Duma to reject that law, instead of making a plea to OGS to submit to that law?
Besides, I think that many Russians who are still active on websites outside Putin’s control already use a VPN to circumvent internet restrictions imposed by Putin.
Are you trying to suggest that the matters reported there are true?
I see that the discussion has veered from its original course towards emotions, but I think that none of us should lose face over something that has not yet happened and, hopefully, never will. 
I’ve been playing on OGS since 2014, and for me blocking access to it would be a big problem, perhaps more than blocking Instagram, YouTube, etc. However, I know that the owners of the OGS have their own opinions on certain issues and that they differ from mine. And that’s completely normal. When we come to visit a house, we must accept the rules established in that house, so we have a choice: either accept the rules of the house or not go there. And since we come here, it would be stupid and impolite to impose our own rules.
Have I said anything to that effect?
I haven’t made any such plea, only suggested that if the law is enacted, it could affect OGS.
I don’t care if you are concerned about what you imagine my intentions to be.
Alright, I suppose I misinterpreted your statements.
I’d say you’re also misinterpreting my statements. I’m being very critical about Putin and the Russian government specifically. That doesn’t equate to Russophobia (as in dislike/fear/hatred towards the Russian people, language or culture).
Well, that’s good to hear. Nevertheless, your comments aren’t really relevant to the central topic. It doesn’t matter what you think of the Russian government or its president. If the law is goes through, your feelings and beliefs about those matters will not count for anything.
True.
So thank you (I guess) for informing us about what Putin is up to.
They do in the sense that OGS and its community can decide how to approach the law (if it gets enacted). One option is to proactively delete threads in order to not get blocked. The other is to not take any action (and probably still not get blocked 
)
I doubt that deleting some old threads would make much of a difference when OGS shows the Ukrainian flag in the logo.
But I don’t think there will be much support from the OGS community (or from the OGS owner) to remove everything from the OGS site and forums which Putin might find objectionable enough to block OGS for Russia based users lacking VPN.
What would be next? Removing all images showing the uncovered hair of women, because the Supreme Leader of Iran (Ali Khamenei) threatens to block all sites showing that?
Well, I don’t care you don’t care I don’t care. You do not seem to care about much, do you? Why did you bother to drop a sort of “warning” in the first place? Textbook trolling, that’s what it is. Very funny to watch a thing like this happen here. Of all places on the web you chose this forum to try to stirr things up. Hilarious! Thank you for that, and for your valuable heads-up of course. Much appreciated.
I’m pretty sure that Putin, as head of state, doesn’t personally propose legislation for consideration by the Duma, but (like King Charles in the UK) does have to sign off what is passed by the two chambers before it can become law.
I can’t be 100% sure of that, but before you dispute it, I suggest you read the Russian Constitution (you know, a written document constraining the State like the UK doesn’t have?), which is available on Wikipedia.
As I have mentioned elsewhere in this thread, I think it is very unlikely that this site would even come to the attention of the Prosecutor General. If, by any chance it did and they decided to take action, those controlling OGS might like to consider removing the “offending” comments so as not to dampen free speech here and then petitioning for any ban to be lifted. I certainly wouldn’t recommend proactive deletion ‘just in case’. The paltry sums an (old) appeal here could raise are totally insignificant compared to the billions in funds and weaponry supplied by the USA, UK & EU anyway. An appeal on a massively popular computer war game, as referred to in the OP might be.
Pots, kettles.
Gotta censor to save free speech you say? I say that defeats the purpose.
So long as discussions and viewpoints shared are respectful they are welcome here. Collectively I don’t think we particularly care to bend the knee to some authoritarian regime to remove discussions and viewpoints they don’t want discussed or shared, so no we won’t be removing posts.
