3. Unrelated to the OP, but the moderation here is terrible. You get banned for the smallest things like calling someone a troll or fanboy despite if it's true or not. Also, posting a negative opinion on a certain game causes a ruckus among the community. Back then, you had no fears about disagreeing with the majority and stating a negative opinion on a popular game. Now, you get reported and possibly even banned for saying something negative about a game even if you have played it. I believe Kyliedog was a victim of this. It's like some users can't handle negative opinions and just want a place where everyone agrees that *insert game/console* is awesome.



Sometimes, wording is very important. For example, calling a game a 'piece of shit' has the same meaning as calling it 'a completely unenjoyable experience' but the former is more likely to get the author moderated. People can criticize popular games without moderation if they're respectful. I've recently created a recent thread stating that Assassin's Creed is a bad game & no one got upset at all. I'm curious about what KylieDog literally said to get him banned. The banned was probably fair.

We both know Kyliedog, and we know he back up his claims no matter how controversial they are. He rarely, if ever, states "this game is a piece of shit 2/10". But then again, it was during the dark times of VGC. When a certain user was a mod last year and would ban a lot of people for saying something negative about Nintendo.

@ryan, most of those threads were created before the subforums were born. Not sure if yours was, but I never seen it before the sub-forums. Apologies if it was created before. Anyways, Zucas' thread isn't really discussing music in general; just what was the recent song you listened to. Kind of like what was the last movie you watched. Arcturus' thread is a leaderboard. The post your mind one...well I actually don't like that one. Most of it looks like spam posts. Anyways, I just think having a general movie discussion thread in a movie forum is kind of redundant. I still vote for the elimination of subforums.

I agree,I disagree with kyliedog from time to time,but he does always state his reasons in a clear manner. He's one of my favorite poster's.
