Changing terminology is just something you have to expect. I'm just fighting it on the "AAA" front because it's more common on VGChartz than anywhere else on the internet - I'm pretty sure GAF, for example, uses it to refer to budget |
language is a constantly evolving structure and words change meaning tens of times within a decade.
It's only right to assume that there will be some confusion.
At first, I was like "man seece is being really aggressive and unreasonable", and I was going to post on your wall "WTF?", but when I thought about it, I really started the whole argument. While I didn't have any aggression in my post, the idea to rename was an idea born months and months ago out of frustration about the whole issue. While I have favored expediency over controversy, it's apparent to me that there will still be people who want to stand their ground, and I can respect that. Whereas I prefer compromising and getting back to business, some might call me a push over.

I actually like your idea. It facilitates more clarity in communication. I mean, I'm pretty sure we have precedence for this sort of thing here at VGChartz, like setting down definitions for exclusive games.

We do have one of the most professional atmospheres out of the gaming forums. Doesn't say that much about the community lol, but you get the point.
I just felt compelled to post my thoughts after I read all the posts about the topic.
