I asked my neighbor, a VP at Hasbro. He said not only does he know how obsessive these guys can get, he or his office get between 50 and 100 emails a week from squirtgun/NERF obsessives in varying levels of hatred or pure creep-o sexuality
he’s since set up automatic flags for certain names, nerf or squirtgun styles, and certain keywords
