Why go into threads for games/consoles you hate?

It kinda is tho. 

Boom never forgets.

Boom never forgives.

When you have at least Toriko, OP, Shingeki no Kyojin it's kinda hard defend Naruto as the best of the decade (even more considering it debuted in the previous milenium).

Telling people to not go into threads of games they don't like is just furthering the fanboy's agenda and trying to create "a safe space" for them. A circlejerk echochamber is just as bad for the gaming community at large as are toxic haters.

Guess why there are so many bans on this site, because fans cannot function outside of their safe space anymore and will press the ban button at the slightest hint of negativity. And of course our fine mods will kindly oblige because being negative about a thing that others are positive about is a crime against humanity. (except when it isn't because reasons)

What we need is a balance that will filter out both echochambers and haters. Removing just one of them will do us no good. But don't worry, I will always do my best to uphold this balance and I encourage people to do as well.

Agree on that, but as well as what was said, I find it mind boggling how trying to point out the intent and the history of said eprson triggers other folk, who then proceed to gang up and form a bigger echo chamber. THat and when people scream at you to report an action, then that report isn't taken up on or looked past.

I go to say, ps4 pro vs pc threads to make sure there isn't any spread of miss-information even though I don't really like them since the comparison itself isn't fair nor is it done right.

This. I can't say I'm overly fond of threads that set up unfair comparisons and try using it to steer things their way. Like I said before, you don't see me making vs threads, I don't because I know how pointless they are and how they are set up in general.

 

Edit: I wish that instead of having these little echo chambers, that we had a space to just be up front about someone, because I'm already an "apparent" example a few posts above, from someone who will not let it down after the last tassle, but since we cannot name names due to mdoeration, we instead have to talk like this and just "imply".

You may or may not like, but bringing person past and moderation history in a thread is against the rules. So it making an echochamber or not because of it is a matter to discuss with the headmod.

I think a better question would by: why do you want circlejerking instead of discussion? OK, that's a bit provocative I suppose, but it seems you're basically asking why anyone with a negative opinion would come in a thread.

You think I'm a "circle jerk" kind of guy? Me? ME!?! I have failed you.

Yes, you like to jerk others but aren't limited to circles.
