@Carl, what part of pezus' post is a lie? Because Kowenickis thread was definitly lock worthy as flamebait. However, the more simple and happier solution would to have just eduted the title


kow wasnt banned for the thread, kow was banned for this post in the thread.

And no, the thread wasnt flamebait. It was a legit question. In the OP he even said it may or may not be an issue and asked someone who could speak French to clarify what was going on. If people see that as flamebait, just because it was kow who posted it, then they seriously need to step away from teh console warz for a week or two and take a long look in the mirror.

And the thread was actually locked because of the conversation in the thread itself. Not because of the OP.

To be fair, it is easy to consider threads like Kowenicki's as flamebait, when you know the history of the thread creator.

In this case, it wasn't. But you can't blame people for feeling like it was [because of his history]. Lots of people create those kinds of threads with an agenda. In this case, I don't think Kowenicki had one. But I think if he'd be a little more inclined to give Sony its due when the company does well, and not be so harsh when it doesn't (you know how he comments in his sarcastic way...), people wouldn't see him the same as they do right now.
