For the record, I got a warning once. It was because I was inciting (flaim bait) Sony Fanboys who were trolling a Wii Thread a few months ago. I did it one time and immediately got warned not to do that. (I think it was either Ben or Stof who I think both own a Wii)
So I don't do it, though later my 360 motion controller post made fun of the six-axis and I got heat for that and I wasn't trying to bait, I was joking that 360 motion would be silly like IMO it is for PS3. We are allowed to have opinions and even joke when appropriate.
I think sometimes our own biases make a light joke seem like a personal insult. I know that I notice Wii bashing more than PS3 or 360 bashing because I am so utterly in love with my Wii (which I make fun of too).
Like I said in my answer in that thread: people are going to make light of the Wii Casual Line-up and crappy ports, the 360 hardware track record, and Sony over hyping and half-baked motion controls. The banhammer only comes out when you cross the line or keep pushing it.
@Hus: I think it would be in your best interest just to not comment on anything that has to do with Wii or 360. I don't own a 360 anymore, so if I do comment in a 360 thread I only post positive stuff even though my general feelings about MS are negative. I just try to be civil. PS3 I am a little more harsh on, because I still own one and speak from personal experience. I NEVER say "it sucks" or make generalized comments though, that is what gets people banned.
I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.
