Wait, wait - a site can establish rules about opinions? Like, you cannot have an opinion that a publisher isn't doing a good job? Flaming is a clear cut offense but trolling, based on your post, is him having a diverging opinion. I don't recall all his posts but, based on what you just said, it seems that just thinking differently is a moddable offense. 

And again, you not going about posting "negative" things is your prerogative. Him posting his opinion is his.

When you opinion goes against the rules for trolling and flaming, yes it can have established rules against opinion. 

Is there a rule that says you cannot post something that's factually correct but is negative towards a company?

Again, if you are going out of the your way to only be negative regardless of factual/fictional, you can be seen as breaking the rules of trolling and flaming, because your motive is obvious, you are trying to cause a negative reaction and trolling the fanbase and most of the time it is to feel better about your choice in the little plastic you picked over the little plastic that someone else picked. 

Anyways I'm out from explaining rules and what may/may not constitute as trolling/flaming, they ain't my rules, it is just my understanding of them. Mods can deal with explaining things if you want to press them on it. 

No, the motive isn't obvious unless you're a mind reader as I said. A poster's feelings about posts aren't facts. If someone comes and says the PS4 is crap, I might not like it but it is that person's opinion and should not be moddable.

In your case, it is indeed obvious. 

Hi, my name is Rol.

Today I have an important announcement to make. The ban I received last week marked the 50th* entry in my moderation history.

Many of you probably know me as someone who analyzes the psychology of forum members, but what's also worth of note is that I am self-aware. I know that I have a reputation among many people that I get away with virtually anything here on VGC and therefore I am allegedly free to post anything I want. However, the facts clearly contradict this belief. How many VGC members do you know that have as long of a moderation history as I have? Or to make things more manageable, how many do you know that have a moderation history at least half as long as mine? You'll probably still struggle to name half a dozen correct answers.

Not sure what else to say, because this thread wasn't made to say that I have a problem with moderation. I just thought I should state the facts to clear up a common misconception, now that I've reached such a nice milestone.

*Number includes four moderations from the time before moderation histories were implemented.
