The issue has nothing to do with Sony trolls. MS has fucked up the last couple months, its been hard for loyalist to deal with all the negative aspect associated wth MS messing up. Sony fans and many MS fans have made their voice heard with the whole Xbox craziness. But this is nothing new, Sony fans dealt with this with the PS3, VITA, PSP. It just some cant handle the negativity and make it personal. The fact is we are just fans, we not part of these comapanies and our feeling should not get hurt we they get critized. |
The thing is it's true and not at the same time. It's true that we are just fans, it's true that we are not part of these companies, but the truth is also that we care about these companies and the games they make, because we like them. Trolls know that and they take pleasure in bashing the things we like, it's just like children have always known to do, it's elementary human behavior. So though most of us should learn to distance our feelings from the opinions of others, it's not true that trolls should be tolerated.
The truth is that trolls are like flies, or like mosquitos. If one tries to sting you, you swat it, no problem. When there are too many to count, it becomes unbearable.
I have to admit I missed the PS3 days on the forum, I was mostly not interested in the forum back then and focused on the numbers and graphs. However I did notice the Vita and there was this one user called johnny_bmk. I remember him bashing the Vita in a media create thread and I told him off. I didn't care what fan I was of, I just didn't want him doing that. That's what I'd like to see more Sony fans doing, because until I see that it makes me hard to respect the good Sony fans, in essence they become accomplices.
