Where do you go to find out more about a game?

- The site has to become more lenient on it's members. Members should be allowed to come in and give a strong opinion about something, without the fear of getting banned because it might hurt the feelings of a few fanboys. The reason why Neogaf is such a great place for discussion is because actual debate is allowed and the mods don't care for the feelings of their more sensitive members. Sometimes a VGChartz thread really hits the right note and a long 30 page discussion takes place and it's actually interesting, but most of the time they hit a brick at the 4th page because everyone's too scared to keep going on. Trolls should be banned, but I believe there is a difference between a trollish remark and a strong opinion. Also, I should be able to swear whenever I want. I don't have to swear at other people to insult them, but I shouldn't have to feel guilty about saying 'fuckin Nintendo' when I'm having a rant as to why a new F-Zero hasn't been made.

Anyway, that's my thoughts. Enjoy.

Did you just say gamrConnect moderation is harsh while praising the leniency of NeoGAF mods?

This thread confuses me greatly.

Neogaf mods ban people for stupid things, but it isn't frequent and they do allow a large amount of freedom in what you can post. As an example, if I was a dick to Evilore and continued to post stupid stuff about him or thing's he just doesn't generally like (which isn't a part of the rules) he'll ban me. The same thing applies to all the mods on that site. What makes the discussions good is that I can be extremely negative about a product, argue against people about their opinion on that product and pretty much say whatever I want, just as long as it isn't false or spamming.

I find that on VGChartz, the mods have a 'please everyone' mentality, which is wrong, because some people are far too sensitive to negativity and debate and so this leads to short threads and a lack of proper discussion. This has been my experience.
