| Darth Tigris said: Personally I've even tried to dial back some of the cheerleading that slips out sometimes. One of the most obnoxious stealth trolls I've seen here is when people create celebratory threads that demean other games or consoles. Sometime multiple ones are created. For example, how many thread do we need about Halo outselling other exclusive FPS games or Gran Turismo outselling other exclusive racing games? There are things such as modest successes in the industry. Its not just about the huge sellers. And while I'm on that point, the need to create multiple threads SIMPLY to push the system of your choice is not constructive to the community. Does every single accomplishment or sales milestone for your console of choice or a game on that console deserve its own thread? "The Sega Genesis just got another 200k seller!!!" REALLY???!!! Maybe I'm just getting to old for this. I need to make more money online instead of being here. Yeah, I sometimes think I'm going to be chased away from here like I have with so many online communities over the years. Its disappointing. |
That hasn't been too bad lately (though i never tend to post in the Sales forum, so it might be worse there). Generally these kind of threads are only made for something notable from my perspective. Last time i saw that getting bad was when Wii was still in the hunt for 50% marketshare, then we celebrated every .1%, then when Wii started dropping someone tried the opposite tactic (celebrating every .1 it lost), then got nailed
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
