Wow the thread has been a honey pot, 5 people banned?? Wow.


Yep, opinion against Microsofts practices = ban. Essentially, if you piss of high penis point members like kowenicki and BenVTrigger they get you banned.

 

 

"Saying the Xbox is the most successful console worldwide is straight up lying.

 

Also, games are now only on fifth position after movies, tv shows, sports and music. Microsoft repeatedly states that Xbox as a gaming console was just a trojan horse to get a foothold in the living room and they will abuse this now. I can't comprehend how people can call themselves gamers and still support this bullshit. Microsoft is burning this industry down just to get into the living room to compete with Apple TV. They don't give a shit about games or gamers."

 

 

This is what I was banned for and the reason was "blatant trolling/flaming"

Flamebait and trolling. Posts or signatures slamming a particular platform without basis - be it a specific console, macs, windows, or anything similar - will not be tolerated. This applies to specific games as well as consoles.

  • You always have the right to express your opinion, as long as it is relevant to the thread topic, and you do so in a civil manner, justifying what you say. If you want to discuss something other than the thread topic, make your own thread.
  • The forums are here for gamers of all persuasions, so unless you're in a thread specifically geared towards platform comparison/discussion, keep your anti-platform comments out of the thread. Note that there is a difference between having a reasonable argument in the correct thread and trolling.
  • Similarly, do not create threads, posts or signatures just to bait people of a specific fan group. Bait threads will be locked and you will be moderated for them. If you spend a lot of time making hit-and-run negative threads or posts about a specific platform you will also be moderated at the discretion of the moderators.
In the context of the thread, I don't think I missed the mark.
Edit: I've said similar things about Sony, and nothing happenend. Go figure.


Currently the 360 is the most succesful console WW. Hes referring to the 360 being the number 1 selling in console at the close of 2011. Which Microsoft have told you it is on about 9 occassions now without any retract from Sony or Nintendo right in their faces to. I think if Microsoft were lying Sony would have said so or even Nintendo. Instead they looked right back at Microsoft and said nothing. Every major gaming event Microsoft as said this. Currently 360 is number 1.
