You were moderated for the thread, not because of the reactions of other posters. The thread on its own was lock-worthy.


This is a straight up lie.

Part of me feels like this is a good idea, but another part does not. Unless this means that we have broader latitude to shut down threads (and moderate such thread-makers) that have a negative tone in them, to stop this sort of thing before it happens? 

I would rather that we had come down on the side trying to stop the FUD spreaders, rather than hurt the people who are just reacting to that.

Well, why not moderate both? Moderate the obvious trouble causer and moderate the people who're acting like gimps in said thread.

That said, you will have to be veeeeery careful on who you moderate for making certain threads. You cant just moderate based on console/company allegiancies.

Has anyone been moderated for this yet?
