Lol time out. First, the whole deal is "XBOne was a term made up by trolls who are being childish". Then I show you that it became the abbreviation because...that's how it looks.

Now, it's called that out of malicious intent (based on the policies), even though the origins are before the policies are revealed?

Why can't people just accept that it's called the "XBOne" because.....THAT'S WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE?!

I've never seen anyone capitalizing that O in Xbone. You're trying to make it into some official ok thing. Its like you actually think people were being genuine last year when calling it that. Majority of people see it as a jab and they admit it. You won't for some reason.

I capitalize it. If not, it's just because I'm typing quickly and miss the shift key. Like when you see Ps4, sometimes. Anyway, I don't let terms get framed, in my book (like how from 2001-2009, the term "liberal" was framed to mean anti-American (because of their stance on the war overseas), even though I know that's not what "liberal" means). Just because some people are out to change the definition doesn't I'm gonna look at the origins and say "nope, doesn't count now".

You can if you want. To remain, as I put it....salty. I mean, why can't I put "One" after XB? Even MS does that in their logo. It'd be like you getting mad that I put "360" after XB, even though that's what the logo is. I call it "XBOne" because, that's it's name. That's how the name is stylized. That's how it's written. The fact that "Bone" is in there and MS subsequently tried some BS doesn't make it become:

Whatever makes you feel better about calling it that. I can't stop anyone from doing what they do. Just know that there's a reason why Xbone is widely considered as a derogatory term and people aren't being "salty" for no reason. No matter how you try to spin it.
