It was a figure of speech.

Look Microsoft werent to blame on this occasion. Thats all there is to it. It wasnt Microsofts contract. We havent seen the contract between Microsoft and Machinima. The one posted online is between Machinima and their Content Providers. Im absolutely sure Microsoft push the boundries like any company. But this whole fiasco with the youtube thing was crazy stupid. It helps for people to have all the facts first.

And which figure of speech would that be? Hyperbole? Irony? Detractio? Litotes?

I agree there is no proof of MS involvement and Machinima may simply be contractual to function independently.

My only point is don't try to influence the site founder about how his site is going to lose demographic because of the Sony fans. You have an agenda to push, then do it elsewhere, otherwise you're participating in the very same behavior you are accusing others of.

Easy fella. Ive been much longer than you. I know the demographics with all due respet much better than you. Point is there was easily 10x more Xbox fans back then here. And they are still fans ( I have them on Xbox Live ), Ive tried to get them to come back. But they wont. They say its to far gone. Is it? I dont know. But I wasnt trying to influence the site creator at all. He almost never posts on VGC. For him to post about this imo shows just how bad this has all become. Id be happy to continue this further in PM. But as you say I dont want to carry on here and appear like Im trying to influence anything. PM me if you want.
