There have been lots of reports relating to this thread. A few things.

- I'm not moderating console people for coming in and defending consoles in a "PC" thread. It's not a PC thread, it's in the Gaming section. *Maybe* you'd have a case if this thread were in PC discussion and didn't say "Consoles VS PC Argument" in the title.

- There's a decent discussion to be had here about the component costs and performance. There have also been some good points made about short term cost vs. long term cost. Keep it up. Those posts add a lot of value.

- There have also been some posts that basically consisted of "PC is better", with the other person responding and saying "Console is better". Yes, I'm exaggerating to get the point across. The point is that those posts don't had value.

- If you never learned the difference between "Your" and "You're", now is a great time to learn. You're going to be better off knowing this.

So let me get this right the mods, (Or just you??) are ok with a user that keeps baiting the small PC userbase we have here on VGC with useless comments that add nothing to this discussion at all, by saying false facts and his allowed to get away with it simply cos this is in the "gaming Discussion" thread.

So thats good to know then. I can make a thread and name it PC vs Console put it in the gaming discussion thread and say a bunch of false stuff about consoles to bait other users and i cant get a warning or a ban for it??.

Also is that last comment about your and your're directed at me? if it is i think its clear where you stand on the issue. And imo no mod should be allowed to try downgrade a user with such uncalled for stuff as commenting on their grammer when it adds nothing at all to what was being said unless that mod was in return being slandered by that user.. Tis is only a gamin form ppl dnt hve 2 rite perfctly .

Id like your reply on this since if that is directed at me ill be reporting you to trucks as such comments is really uncalled for.

We have a small PC community here, but if every mod acted the way you just did here the wouldnt be a PC user left on this site, Would that make you happy??.

Also i believe that thanks to this comment from this mod that it will now be open season on PC gamers here on this site. Hopefully the other mods will see things a bit different and will understand where we PC gamers are coming from since no one likes their hobby to be slandered. And all what allowing such things does is make bad blood on the forum with such things being allowed.

Also what the mod should realize is PC users only started using the arguments that his saying after some console users started using them first and that goes back to my point about bad blood.

Grammar

Also it's not just this mod taking a dig based on his own opinions, it's part of the rules which while stating they don't lead to moderation well... it's explained in part 16 of the forums rules.

- Quality of Language. Make an effort to type in full words and sentences. Put a space after punctuation and capitalise the start of sentences. You're not writing a text message, and you are not in any hurry. It is very easy to tell the difference between a non-native speaker (who is more than welcome here) and somebody who is simply not making any effort to be coherent. You won't be moderated for using text speak, but it certainly won't endear you to other users. Similarly, use paragraphs and line breaks, because nobody wants to read an enormous wall of text.

From a personal point of view I find myself picturing the type of person who hammers away at a keyboard without so much as a glance back over their post to see it isn't peppered in mistakes, I mean if you aren't going to put the effort into typing it correctly you can hardly be surprised if people aren't going to put the effort into trying to read what you might have meant from it?

Also what you view to be lies and agenda spreading is either peoples opinions or what they happen to have encountered themselves, it being different to what you feel about the matter doesn't make it a lie. If you just label everyone who has had a bad experience (or even a less than amazing experience) with their PC at some stage in their lives as being a liar well it doesn't really leave much room for actual discussion on the subject at all, not open discussion anyways.
