Would be intetesting to see how this would work, You would have to tackle three main problems, those being; How do you get people who have an Xbox talk about Xbox when they dont because they fear they're opinions being ridiculed? How do you get a large influx of Xbox discussion when is clear that the majority of users dont own one? Finally, how do you get the Xbox community to post outside of XBR, when similar to question 1, they dont feel secure enough on this site to do so? Its easy to look at Xbox nation threads as a problem but when in reality theyre one of the reason - if not the main reason - why theres an Xbox community left at all on this site

Well, let's see...
How do you get people who have an Xbox talk about Xbox when they dont because they fear they're opinions being ridiculed?
They could not give a fuck on Thursdays. No one forces you to reply to people, and besides, we're supposedly supportive of Xbox opinions the mentioned day, right? If someone goes after an Xbox poster, we could "attack" (no personal jabs of course) his wall with a shit ton of Xbox gifs. 
We could also ask Rol to find us some bodyguards, like he did with Tbone!
How do you get a large influx of Xbox discussion when is clear that the majority of users dont own one?
Create worthwile thread(s) the aforemented day. We would have one entire week to recollect info and make this happen. Of course discussion isn't going to create by itself.

I've been posting outside of XBR and so far I'm still alive. Man up! What kind of wussies are we to be hiding behind one specific thread? If things go wrong and we get banned, well, then so be it. One or two bans won't kill us, will them? The problem with your scenario is that Xbox fans should be afraid of posting in the first place, which is then something that cannot be helped unless you can get over that insecurity. Worst-case scenario: permaban (but why would you get permabanned just for talking about Xbox?). Wait a few months and ask Miguel to allow you back. If he doesn't want to, we'll bomb his wall with Xbox gifs as well. 
We'd be like the Musketeers. A few bunch, but you know the rule!
