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. 

In that case 70% of users on here are actively trolling Xbox threads. Or is it that XB1 lost the console war years ago, and everybody sees that?

In your case, it is indeed obvious. 

 

You know telling someone he's trolling is trolling, right? I got modded for a similar comment because I was "targeting" the other poster. 

You're coming off as oblivious as to why you always get yourself banned. I am simply stating a fact.

Carl posted your most recent ban history. There is absolutely nothing you can say to pretend innocence. But honestly, Carl didn't need to post that to make it clear. Everyone remotely regular on VGC knows that about you.

After all these bans for the same reason, don't you think it's more than due time for you to get the message and evolve?

While Lawlight has obviously been trolling on this site repeatedly, he does raise an interesting question: when is it okay to post a negative opinion about a publisher? Is it about quantity? Do you have to post positive opinions as well? Or is it just about not being a dick?

Pretty much the last one. Most of the rules boil down to the simple statement "Don't be a dick". 

Lawlight has an extensive history of going into Nintendo threads and trying to find the best way to spin any news into something negative or to downplay the positive (like this http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=8531174). It's been going on for years and as the Dothraki would say "It is known". At this point, his intentions are obvious.



Signature goes here!

We need a 3 strikes rule on the forums.

That would be lame as most mods aren't very good at discerning what is moddable and what isn't. "Negative" posts are a moddable offense on these forums.

LOL.

Really now?

Yes. I've reported post of people flaming me before and nothing was done about it. And I've been banned for being "negative" in Carl's words.

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.

Dude, what`s not to get? Posting your opinion isn`t against the rules, but being a dick about it is. If you don`t want to be banned, don`t be a dick. Simple.

So how was Kerotan a dick about it?
