Not really. Those threads are like junk piles, IMO. It would just get lost. Plus, these threads are fun.

Why do people make threads like this to begin with? These threads and the "Convince me to by..." threads just seem like flame bait.


Why do Sony fans chill in the Microsoft forum if they're going to be easily offended at Microsoft related post? Seriously. This wasn't posted in the Sony thread. Everything here is factal. OP physically swapped his PS4 for an XboxOne.  I'm a PC gamer so you don't see me hanging out in the Sony thread bashing any possible "I sold my PC and got a PS4" post. Just logic is all. If this was in any section but Microsoft it might be flamebaiting, but it's in the proper forum. Where mainly Microsoft fans should be anyways. Not Sony fans looking to cry offended.

This would have been avoided if people weren't looking for a reason to be offended. Twisting OPs words and calling his title trollbait. Nothing about his title is trollbait. Especially due to th forum it is in. That was my point. If this was in the Sony forum then it would be fair to consider it trollbait.  Also op TRADED the PS4 directly for the Xbox One. It is very relavent to include that part into the title.

For the third tome, since this is a Microsoft discussion section, there is no need for PS to be on the title. And for the record, I've never mentioned the word "trollbait". Again, I don't want this to drag on and attract more moderator attention. Just drop it.

Wait did you just call me a Sony fan?

I'd love to get one for that Quantum Break!


Same here! Should have a lot more income next year so having 2 consoles will be justifiable.


I have a PS4 and an Alienware gaming laptop. I hope I can add Xbox One too.

Wow I think this thread really got a lot of people upset. Did you killed their dog along with this transaction?

Seems like some fans aren't ready to hear some people put their games preference before console brands. In the end it's all about the games you like, you should always buy the console that has games you like and no one should insult you because you do so.

Thread title has nothing to do with the behavior of some people in here. He would've said how he got his X1 in a comment and people would hate on him anyway... people should learn to let things go and care more about what they like and less about what they hate.

No I didn't. And unless my 3 year old is creating accounts on here I didn't fuck their mothers either. I'm not sure what's up.

Good for you. Looking for some sympathy here? I don't know why you would need reassurance of your purchase, you like what you like.

Sympathy? No that would require something bad to happen to me. I'm chasing gamertags if you have one.

Only several people who own Xbox Ones here are actually in the Empire thread. Putting this in the hot topics gives him the opportunity to get more friends. Since when was it wrong for people to make threads about getting a new console?

I never said it was wrong. But he was careless with the thread title wording. If his intention was only to say he got an Xbox One and ask people to add him, he could've said it so. Who needs to know he gave away his PS4? No one. People in here can get pretty irked for things like that, so everyone needs to know not to make a baity title. It's on the rules. The title could've gone like "Just got an Xbox One!" and the gamertag on the OP, for anyone who wants to add him. And yes, this thread is a Microsoft discussion. Why add PS4 in the title of the thread? Just some constructive criticism.


Anyone looking for him on PS4 can know that now he doesn't have it anymore. Also, he's telling how he got his Xbox One. 

Thank you. This ^ for anyone else feeling the need to ask the question.

One of Chicago's baseball teams. I don't follow the sport myself, but on a somewhat related point I was told that they haven't been in contention to win anything big for a really long time.

Ah cool thanks. No thanks to you though bigjon.
