Honestly, i don't see it as a problem. You can't force people to like or talk about something that doesn't interest them.

I don't agree that we should change our ways in any way to accomodate certain groups. That is special treatment. If we do that for Xbox fans, why not do it for SEGA fans, or Ouya fans?
I'm sure that the disappearance of the Xbox fans might be related to simply how their system of choice is performing. They go head to head with Sony, and no one likes to take a trashing. Nintendo is a special case, because they always go at their pace and have very loyal fans. Since Nintendo doesn't directly compete with Sony in tech, they get by.

Nobody talks about the games I like you don't see me complaining!

It's called Buyer's Remorse, not Cognitive Dissonance. Cognitive Dissonance is when you hold two or more contradictory or seemingly contradictory beliefs simultaneously.

On a side note: I had 3 different tabs of this thread open at different points and I was under the impression that I was reading three seperate threads...

Nintendo's future with NX is a hot topic, especially when concerning the fate of Zelda U. As such, I expect most threads to be Nintendo-centric.

I've done it multiple times with my own threads and said days ago that in doing so, no difference is actually made. My one "voice" isn't doing zip, not changing a single thing at all. My leading by example changes nowt which is why I don't see why I should bother if no one else will.

I'm an Xbox user/fan, and I'm in VgChartz as a reader and occasionally poster since long time ago, in my opinion this site ever was somewhat PS Sided, but the actual situation is the worst for Xbox community in here ever.

Xbox is doing fine, and there are plenty of topic and news to talk about it, but i have the impression that posting or even voting on a poll here is a waste of time. I mean, there are plenty of catastrofic threads about how Xbox is losing, and is gonna dissapear every week that, well why do we care about it anymore? I think some people don't want to expose themselves creating threads praising Xbox.

I remember a thread some weeks ago that was something like "xbox, where are the flaws?" and the guy praised the hardware of xbox, he received a huge backlash and was called fanboy, and troll for even talk about the hardware because well, the PS4 hardware is superior.
If I can't praise something good because the other console is superior, what's the point to even talk? Of course no one argue with him about the quality or not of the hardware, simply called him troll, flamer and stuff like that. The guy wasn't even saying Xbox was superior or anything like that, only that the Xbox One hardware is fine, good, that I believe is something very reasonable.

I don't vote in polls anymore, the polls itself are many times tricky, without real positive answers about the machine or the games, but when they aren't the support on Sony and the diss of Xbox is so overwhelming that is funny.

Sony could not make a conference on the next E3, and win all the polls for the E3 winner here.

The start of the generation was so shit-storming to Xbox community, that some of the Xbox fans decided that shut up on the internet and play Xbox was the best choice.

I still think an Xbox Thursday would be a great idea!

Wasn't that Jega? Sounds about right and deserved. Helpful tip, don't defend people you don't know

I just bought an Xbox One and really like it so far. I might start participating in more Xbox chatter now. Though fire the most part I just keep myself to the Vita threads.

That thread makes it as if Xbox One has no flaws and therefore cannot be criticized. Every console has flaws and should be criticized... The thread maker in question has been banned for past hit and run threads, meant to rile up people and not partake in the discussion. It would be as if a known Sony-only fan came out with a thread that said "The Order 1886, where are the flaws?"
