Also, considering that VGChartz showed the XB1 winning April in the US... can we get a GAF mod to ban it from twitter also?

What an idiot. People continue to misunderstand what Vgchartz is.

It doesnt ever proclaim to be 100% accurate, and at times it will be completely off.

Shows how immature these so called "insiders" are. Even Pachter gives props to Vgchartz for what they do. GAF is just as bad to be honest, with their whole crusade against Vgchartz. Fucking assholes.

Pachter gave props to their archive of numbers, which have all been adjusted to reflect official trackers and shipments.  Not to their predicting prowess.  Not that he's any better.  And I think people have a right to call out VGC like this.  It has been obvious for awhile now that the PS4 is outselling the One in the US, yet they refuse to adjust their tracking methods.  Most people question the numbers out of love and want it to be as accurate as possible, so there's nothing wrong with calling the site out.  Jsut as long as you're not being a complete dick about it.

Yeah i agree. Sorry i was just getting a bit upset and the immature comment from that so called "insider". Absolutely people should call out Vgc, but while doing so, they need to have perspective as to what Vgchartz is. Vgchartz does not proclaim to have perfect tracking, add to that, the numbers are completely free. So yeah...i really dont see why people advocate for it to banned anywhere.
