Hey guys.
I noticed something increasingly displeasing on these forums, that got especially bad in the last year.
Several trolling or flamebaiting threads are created often (usually part of this ongoing fanboy war and seeing who spites the other most). I have taken it upon myself to start reporting these threads. That might help the mods contain them.
These threads only sow flame wars, trolling and make the forum experience bad for everyone. Forums can be civilised places to discuss videogames if everyone plays along, im sure this one can be aswell if we all work towards it. Its not difficult to make a thread that is civilised and doesnt begin with an outrageous claim/title that many times has little to do with the contents. Even if what you have to say is outrageous there are civilised ways of putting it without beeing confrontational. In the end, its only your opinion.
I'm sure we can have civilised arguments without jumping at each others throats. For that i ask the help of those that care.
A thread is going overboard? Making a dumb or outrageous claim aimed at baiting? Report it. Theres no reason to have this hostile envyronment around and lets try to contain it.
Also, try not to jump at everyone else that has a different opinion than yours. Respect other people's opinions (especially if they are fundamented).
I leave a plead to the forum leaders aswell. I'm of the opinion the point system sows this problem. It would be great if creating threads didnt award points to users. That might clean up the forums of many of these unproductive threads.
At any rate, that is my feedback and atempt at trying to make this a better place for debating.
Thanks for reading.
Edit: I tried to make this thread on the website feedback forums but i seem to not have suceeded. If a mod can help and move the thread i would apreciate it.
