This is not about just ignoring them and that's it. As one user above said, devs usually don't ignore them. A dev may have a blueprint in his/her mind and could have a path with NTR, but then ends up being axed out of fear of losing support.
Or, on the other end of the spectrum, you have something like A Zombie's Life (and its spiritual successor, Zombie's Retreat), where the game just completely collapsed as a narrative because it was written around the assumption of there being something at stake. But when he announced plans for an optional "hard" NTR mode that would add another male character into the mix, the game's community when into such an open revolt that he not only abandoned the idea completely, but also stripped out any scenes that would've involved the zombies (despite the game very specifically setting them up as a sexual threat as part of its worldbuilding) because he was so worried that it would cause another uproar. Just about the only two remnants are a single conversation in the prologue and a handful of "save the girl from being groped by a zombie!" CG illustrations as part of a minigame that merely lead to standard game over.
Which I often find hilarious. On f95 (or even itch.io), the majority of people who complain about NTR haven't even ever been a 1$ Patron for anything.
Because around 30-40% of my patrons (depends on the time I make the polls) hate NTR, but they still support me to develop the non-NTR routes. Those who complain about NTR think they are superiors to others. They say NTR-lovers are simps, beta males... They say NTR games are shit. They even think they're superiors to the point that other people have to work their asses off to develop games, and other people have to share the games for them. They're too superior to do anything, no developing nor supporting nor sharing.

Feel free to paste such NTR stories and/or discuss them:
and look at the money that game pulls. you can say it bland but its what people want
Check out this thread for a discussion/list of games containing Netori (which is the type of NTR where you play as the person doing the stealing). SecretSal in particular does a fantastic job of updating the thread with any developments, be they new games or scenes from existing ones.
That... was the point I was making? Captain Kitty's post was about how axing the NTR from his project caused supporters to leave, and "the other end of the spectrum" is how relatively successful NergalsNest managed to be with A Zombie's Life despite watering the game down so thoroughly.
You can't please anybody. I think @CaptainKitty should focus on delivering a cohesive story that's interesting, ntr or not. Of course you can do the math and figure out whether you have a net gain or loss if you axe NTR, and most of the times it's going to be axing NTR. But that's just how free market works right? If you guys want more support for NTR, then vote with your money.
You shouldn't debate with a kid who goes to NTR game's threads to say 80%NTR - 20%Harem. Not only because those numbers are how he whines, it's also because not a single NTR-hater has the patient to play the NTR until the end to know exactly how many percent of NTR in a game. An NTR-hater join this thread, for what? You know what he wants. Just ignore.
That's just called "cheating"
Those stories are quite literally about a girl cheating on her husband/fiancée/boyfriend. Pretty much all websites (including F95) have a separate "cheating" tag, so just search for that (preferably in combination with the "female protagonist" tag if you want that POV).
