He edited and realized he was a little too heated about it. Yes, that I give credit to. That's something that should go along way with users here. :)

Had he presented half-hearted much-a do-about-nothing, that would be different. Nintendo wasn't assaulted and he can choose to not buy their products if he so pleases (again, he has a story to back up why he feels this way [or felt that way in the moment]). If you can show me where his title targets a fanbase, we can discuss it further. To me, "Why I'm Selling my Switch and will NEVER buy Nintendo again" neither targets a base nor exaggerates anything. Again, content is key and the OP is enough to get an idea into his current situation. That's okay if you don't like it. The title can also be edited to better reflect the updated OP material, but it isn't a necessity because no infraction exists there.

I also see something else going on in this thread — someone has a legitimate criticism/issue and they were mocked and taunted for it by some people whom he may have considered gaming peers.

Yep. Like I eluded, sure, the title is a little angry, but your post elaborates on why. Were it a simple one liner with very little to back up said title, that would be a different story.

Hmm, sounds like 101 for: How to make a thread targeting at riling up a fanbase without getting moderation.

Look, I fully believe Akimbo made that thread out of real and understandable anger. But you can believe me, that some people will take notes on how to do this.

I didn't answer the thread initially, because I saw it is a real issue, I saw everything useful was said and the thread already attracted gloating from other fanbases. But this note of yours is not filling me with trust, that the plan to make a more inviting community for XBox-fans will actually work. I am happy if I'm wrong with my fears though.
