Well, the thread title implied something much more specific than what he said in his post. I'm not sure I understand where you disagree with me, except... emotionally?

I disagree with your attempt to give Squilliam some unfavorable reputation and to label this as some flame bait thread.

You also stated he offered no data or other proof related to the topic, but he did.

 

 

   So, do we disagree now?  Cause I think maybe you call people fanboys when you're mad :)

 

   And by the way, what's up with your signature?  I don't know MikeB, but I followed one of the links from someone's sig and it brought me to a forum which didn't really make him sound like some kind of Sony agent at all.  It sounded like a couple of people arguing on a forum and accusing eachother of being banned from other forums a lot.  Does that really constitute a witch hunt like this, where a bunch of people on the forums here all post extremely negative things about one person in their signatures?

 

    I guess what I'm asking is, can you prove it?  (Sometimes I wonder about these things, can you blame me?)

I'm not mad.  I typically label anyone who immediately tries to stir the flames and discredit another member without understanding him, a fanboy.

He offered his proof or arguments using the past example of the Gamecube being discontinued first and being the lowest seller.

It is a perfectly plausible possibility.

As to the MikeB thing, you have to read all his threads to know why we include a disclaimer for him.  He will bring any topic off track to give a bit of "Amiga and PS3 domination talk".  He also will produce claims or arguments based on what he "thinks" is right.  Then when he has been proven wrong, he ignores it and goes off to another thread to spread the same misinformation around.  We don't hate him for who he favors or who he dislikes.  We don't hate him at all and this isn't a witch hunt.  It is merely something that everyone should know because the majority of people reading his threads will not have the technical background necessary to actually know he is wrong and so he gets away with deceiving many people.  Then after he gets proven wrong he will often times resort to open direct insults against people.
