Can someone explain to me what a "secret sauce" is? I feel like it's a VGChartz inside joke...


the secret sauce is just one of the many threads about the internals and power of the xbox one that came up on here on vgc before launch. first one being "xbox one has a second "hidding" GPU and X1 has around 5 TFLOPS." or something like that. it was all originated from the same source, a bullshiter that doesnt make sense called Misterxmedia. basically anybody with a right mind could have identified that he was just hunting for clicks, but you got the fanboys that would believe anything. 

Anyways every week or so we would get a new "insider report" from our good friend misterX. one being "xbox ones secret sauce" and as you can imagine, just like most things ridiculous about gaming news and media (my body is ready!), the term stuck and is now mocked.

every week or so we would get a new theory from this dude, and within hours the theory would get debunked, because it was flawed and it was obvious the source had no idea what he was talking about. anyways a lot of users (including me) would come in these threads and shoot them down right away for being full of shit, then we would have xbox fans "calling us out" that we shit on any "good news" for the xbox, and they were "fighting" to keep these threads and "good news" on the forums. funny thing is, now as the user above wants anybody who says secret sauce to banned, when xbox fans are the ones who brought the bullshit to forums in the fist place. i just LOVE the hypocrisy we have on this site. 

First of all (assuming you're talking about me), I never said people should be banned.  I said they should be moderated.  Warnings can be given to let people know and if they keep doing it they could be banned.  That's the way moderating works.

Second of all, those previous uses of the term came from someone not a part of this forum and were never used to troll.  Cases like the OP are being used to troll.  I'm not calling for anything that isn't part of the site rules, so do make it out that I'm being inconsistent here.
