Based solely on the example text presented, I would say that's a legit example and should not have been deleted.

If it was factually wrong, sure, removing it would make sense, but that wasn't shown or even claimed.

Suddenly I'm... still rotating Fallen London in my mind even though I've stopped actively playing it.

Just FYI, on the Parody Retcon page, Cinema Sins is listed as an example.

^ Which I edited recently, but I didn't create it.

v I wouldn't even call that "veiled" complaining. That part was complainy.

At the very least, the "just attempts at deflecting legitimate criticisms" section could be removed, since it seems like an veiled complaint.

to me, it sounds valid, but that just may be because I am not a fan of Cinema Sins. Something along the lines of "when challenged on their criticisms, the creators claim that it is satire" would seem acceptable to me

of course i'm not the arbiter of these things
