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.

His post in the thread that stemmed from his flamebait thread. Therefore he was indirectly banned for the thread.
Being legit and flamebait isnt exclusive to each other. Hypothetically, I could make a thread and ask why X1 is a shitty console and it be a legit question (yes, its exaggerated to highlight my point and no one would dare say thats not flamebait). Second sentance in your second paragraph defines exactly why it was flamebait. A. thread title states issue with Ps4 hardware. B. OP doesn't know what was said in the video and asks for translation (how did he decide on the title if he doesnt know the contents of his OP). C. states in OP most likely SW bug (but then why say HW issue in title?) Pure and simple flamebait. Text book example.
Locked because of the conversation in the thread due to it being flamebait.

Damn, I missed quite a bit. Not sure if he edited the OP, nor did I read his replies in the thread, but the OP as it is now doesn't seem so bad. Personally, it seems pretty obvious it's just a bug in the SW, so I guess he shouldn't have alluded that it may be due to overheating (like the Youtube poster did), which does make it appear like FUD. Still, nothing incredibly offensive.

It wasn't so bad thats why a simple title edit would have solved everyone a lot of trouble. As it stands the thread title implying HW issues and the evidence being a video show SW framerate issues is flamebait. The thread title should have said "Apparent Knack frame rate issues" which no one would have given a shit since thats been known for a while (which is why I think that wasn't the title).
