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. |
Critizing and trolling are two different thing. I'm known for being negative, but Sony gets most of it. I hate that Vita memory card, childish software, annoying download on the PS3, but I say them. A lot of fans become so invested in this console war, they don't see the mistakes these companies make. We had a huge amount of MS fans defending their DRM strategies in this website. That's crazy to me.
Rules are there to fight trolling, report them. But it doesnt make sense when the users that whine the most about Sony trolls are the one that are always being moderated in this site.
Sony has done many things right this next Gen and MS hasnt, there are still time fix that, but no company is immune to critics.
Next Gen
