| Machina said: This whole thread was turning into a circle jerk of criticism when I began my original post. I'm proud of the writing team and the content we produce and have produced for years now, so if I feel that part of the site is being unfairly criticised because it's become open season on the site since the sales are so far behind (I'm as frustrated as everyone else about this, but am hopeful we can finally do something about it soon), then yes I'm going to speak out and probably with a bit of attitude (as time has gone on I've come to give less of a shit about being diplomatic on VGC). I didn't say anything about the average member, don't be absurd. I was quoting you and arguing against criticism from you and others in this thread. |
Not for nothing, but saying that he's someone who "contributes nothing to the site" is a very easy thing to cause a misunderstand. Either you're specifically saying that he as an individual has had no input of substance to the site and forums, which is directly just plain rude, or you're more likely saying that his opinions on the site are less valid because he's not on staff, in which case it's clear as day how that could be misconstrued as being a window into your opinions on the average user.
If you meant neither, you didn't make it very clear.
