It COULD be that those folks just really like that console. That just MIGHT be a possibility. Frankly, I see nothing wrong with it, why should I? Why would that bother me personally, what someone advertises?

Oh, I definitely see where J-Man is coming from. I find console "loyalties" disconcerting, and the championing of one system over another is just one particularly loud incarnation of that. It speaks, to me, of having entirely the wrong mindset for the hobby.

You can't change it, so why bother with it? I say, let people be, who cares about these "loyalties"? It doesn't cause me to lose sleep, or affect me in ANY other way. With that said, you could just ignore those people, it's that simple.

...Because it can be changed, through clear and open dialogues facilitating the exchanges of ideas and the broadening of perspectives. I don't believe in leaving things as they are when I have reason to believe that conversation will change them for the better, and conversation almost always changes things for the better. That's why I bother posting. It is also why you bother telling me these things you say, regardless of whether or not that is your conscious reasoning.

And no, I would rather not, because even the most .... rambunctious of console "loyalists" has good things to say from time to time.
