And yes, Ducimus and Bigboywooly (and others here) are practically legends in the Silent Hunter modding community.
Bigboywooly has one thread started (releasing a mod) in SH5's modshop, about resupply. A mod that improves the reality of a limited feature that's already in game.

Ducimus has one thread started (releasing a mod) in SH5's modshop, about AI tweaks. The tweaks were so ridiculous that he pulled the mod since it was so out of whack.

That said, both have made some incredibly helpful posts in other threads and sparked discussions that have led to learning new things about how SH5 works. But to claim that those two are specifically being targeted by graphics-only one star demons as a trend is just not true. They haven't had enough original threads in the SH5 mod shop to even come close to claiming that.

I think you're putting too much emphasis on star ratings really. From many years on forums I, and I'm sure others, have come to realize that ratings on forums are often complete nonsense.

They might even be broken, since occasionally I've tried to rate threads and been told "you've already voted" when I know I hadn't.
