I come here to talk games with people who share my hobby, but often I leave the site worse for wear. There are great members here and great discussions to be had, but there is also a lot of behavior that makes me embarrassed to be a video game fan. And you can say "that's the internet," or "that's the way it's always been," but that doesn't mean we can't strive to be better. I believe in this community, and I believe in its members. I really think we can get better if we hold ourselves and each other accountable for our words, which, as tads12 wrote, carry a lot of weight. Maybe then great members like tads12 and amp316 would still be here, and we'd be better for it. |
Honestly:
I have my account since April 2013, and lurked around even before then and by now I know enough of the people around here to see if it is worth discussing with them or if they live in fanboy-ville.
It is said to see the same old poeple shitting on the same old things every time they see a new opportunitiy.
Granted, I´m not perfect either, but it is just so much more entertaining to go in the positive threads and just share impressions about things you like (the Vita thread is so much more enjoyable because it doesn´t attract some of the worst members on this very forum....compared to the Nintendo threads)
....in contrast to just piling on company XYZ because of reasons.
