No. Their is way too many sony fans on this site for that to happen. new comers come in and then get raided by sony fans. That either turns them off or results in them getting banned. |
This basically,
I've been coming to VGChartz since around 2005. I've been permabanned about 7 times over that period.
You can count on an ignorant Sony fan getting right up my nose and resulting in a ban. This account has been my cleanest strech so far...It's hard not to react to idiots. But slowly you learn :)
Most Xbox fans just don't bother and leave like the place like the Simpsons animated gif of grandpa coming then going...
It's sad that the moderators are unable to use "level 2" of understanding and interpeting forum disputes and what not, they don't bother with stealth trolls, are unable to detect sarcasm and generally alround unarticulated.
But I suppose on a large scale doing so might be too much work, or they just lack the intellectual insight to tell an idiot fanboy stealth troll clown, from someone who's just pissed off at the way the place is moderated.
Having said that, it's not bad as far as internet forums for gaming go...if you look at n4g it's like VGChartz gathered the worlds intellects and greatest minds of the world together.
Still, the above is basically the reason there's virtually no Xbox fans here.
This conversation has been done a few times over the years, each and every time the mods plead ignorance, the Sony fans think posts like mine are bonkers and so forth...End evaluation, people just don't use that thing humans were given called "insight". It's fairly obvious how it all works here, it's just a shame nothing is done about it to sort it out.
If I were mod, I'd clean shop in this place, but considering the similarity in the way all mods here operate in actions - yet are clearly different in personality and temperament - I'd say without a shadow of doubt they are taking orders from "above" and don't have the remit to use that insight I'm sure they really do have.
The sad thing is it keeps away people who are genuinely decent people and passionate in how they argue and genuinly take exception to stealth trolling. That's life, and that's VGChartz...forever doomed to be it's own worst enemy all in the name of advertising dollars...maybe it can't get any better :S
It's better than it was though a few years ago, that I will say with certainty, just not by much.
Proof of the above is the fact that members like "Leo-J" were allowed to run amock for years before being taken to task.
There's members here who are detrimental to the whole running of the place and are the seed of evil ;) eventually everyone falls into line, but the end result is a place devoid of passionate debate, under the giant umbrealla of political correctness and stuffy bland conversation.
There's a few bright lights, remember Seece? I remember when he signed up here, he was banned a few times straight away for his "neo thinking". But eventually he was accepted against all odds because he had the argument abilities to prove his point, if he wasn't quite as good at making his points, he'd have long been permabanned...BEFORE he recently left in disgust at this place.
I always knew Seece was going to be a good member here those years ago when he joined within about 3 posts...I was right. I think some people lack this innate ability to be good judges of character.
...god knows why? It's clear as daylight imo, those who are motivated primarily by bias and agenda are as transparent as it gets...yet to the mods..."they haven't broken a rule so they're ok".
They have broken a rule, they've broken the "spirit" of the rules!
...The worst rule someone can break.
