I think we've clarified a few times that there is no need for any more mods

^^ I think it would be great, we would all come wearing T-shirts with our avatar on it an have our sales predictions printed on the back, then we could all get drunk and watch the fanboys start fights with each other, DK´s wife would be pissed as hell though.

And all the mods have these huge ban hammers...waiting for someone to step out of line.

gran turismo also gets my vote...

  That's good because it's a very, very, very bad idea. Choice of console has nothing to do with enforcing the ToU and hiring anyone on the basis of their favourite console would only serve to justify a devision between userbases and worse, divisions in the staff. You'll have people who can say, justified or not, "he warned me because my post said the wii was a fad". Right now people may say that and it may be true as mods are only human after all, however the principle of staff neutrality exists so that no one mods bias can set the standard for how users should act in a section, vs how they should act in other. If one staff member makes a decision out of bias, the rest of the staff exist for an unbiased overview of the warning. If the board decides to start hiring on a basis of fanboyism, then the entire principle is destroyed. Hirings should be about competence, not equal opportunity for opinion.

Even though you're banned, you're obviously still reading, so I'll say this in hopes that one day, it'll sink in.

There is a difference between criticizing and trolling.  The reason your anti-Wii threads get locked is because they're a bunch of BS.  If you want to talk about the number of E-rated vs. M-rated games available for the consoles, you need to be prepared to say something other than "facts don't favor the Wii" when it's been made obvious many times over that your "facts" are a narrowly selected sample that paint a very distorted picture.

This goes for everyone: You need to engage people who disagree with you in conversation, not just dismiss them.  You can play the same old "fanboys don't want the truth" broken record, but you're never going to get anywhere but banned unless you try responding to people.  And by responding I mean reading what they're saying, thinking about it, and then answering, not throwing out another one-liner from your list of canned responses.

If they were looking for a PS3-leaning mod you dont want to go to a fanboy(granturismo sorry but you lean to far) you want to go for a more non biased person but still slightly biased i.e. mitsuhide-i lean towards the PS3 but i dont troll(that i know of) or say the other consoles are crap and i am not a fanboy.
Not that they are looking for a mod i think we have enough mods as it is even though when a thread needs one they are never there but when a thread doesnt need one they are all there no offense to you guys you all do a greatly wonderful job :D

DKII said: ssj - It was a joke because this thread is ridiculous, we already have two mods who own and love their PS3's, so asking for a PS3-leaning mod as if we don't already have them is silly. I'm getting married in a couple weeks so have been a *bit* busy to deal with this site much. :)

 Congratulations DK!

 

Set up a webcam in the church? =P

Just kidding, hope it all goes swimmingly. 

Yeah, seriously....if everybody here were invited ANYWHERE that place would A) become better informed about videogames/videogame sales to the point of insanity, and B) it would look like a Village People concert, only with flamboyant nerds instead of flamboyant gay people.

All i'm hearing is alot of support for me to be a mod, plus the 18 pms supporting me. Looks like i'm loved around here.
