FYI you were banned because literally several people were pointing out the blatant bias clouding your judgement that you couldn’t possibly keep up in responding to everybody. It was one of those cases where you refused to give an inch and adopt the whole “I’m right and everyone is wrong” approach. Which is never true every time it happens (the expression I quoted). 

That's cute. I'm not wrong - I rarely am - and I was definitely right about everything I said. the numbers don't lie, the interpretations were in line with reality, and it doesn't matter how many people disagree with me, that doesn't make me wrong. According to some studies, 1 in 10 people don't believe we landed on the moon, but those people are not using proper logic and are not interpreting the data with any level of intelligence. There's no such thing as being nonbiased, but you need to learn the difference between objective facts and subjective opinions. I've always been clear with what's fact and what's opinion.

And as a result, the mods of this forum can be just as subject to bias, resulting in me getting banned not because I'm wrong or unreasonable but because enough people were pissed off at me repeatedly shoving the truth in people's faces in an uncompromising way and bitched about it. Right or wrong is irrelevant, I was a dick about being right, THAT's why I was banned. 

You can like Xbox all you want and you can think that their current business propositions will pay off in the end (They might actually do that! I hope they either succeed or drop out becuase right now they're hurting the industry), but don't try to pretend that they already have succeeded and are doing well, and don't argue with me about it unless you've got much better arguments than you currently do. 

To be clear, I actually do like you, but I still think it's absolutely hilarious that Xbox is doing so poorly and people criticize them so hard and so repeatedly that their fans are treated like a minority in need of special protections on here and that I got banned for being too critical of a game company. Like, this is a videogame forum, where we discuss sales of games and their successes, I figured discussing things like this would be fair game. but nope. Apparently you can criticize a company too hard on a forum discussing company success. 

But hey, keep being offended by reality. That's cool.

Insecurity? hah! what do I have to be insecure about? PS4 and Switch are doing phenomenally, the two companies I root for are kicking the ass of the competition! 

I dislike Microsoft because they keep fucking up and are doing nothing to turn their fortunes around. They keep making promises, but I've yet to see any of them pay off. They are a company with a VERY distinct identity and don't diversify...yet. The only games on Xbox I care about are Ori, Cuphead, Rare Replay, and Sunset Overdrive. Both Ori games and Cuphead are on Switch, and Cuphead is also on PS4. all other new exclusives are also on PC. I think that's kinda lame, and not good for console development. Microsoft have great strategies as a third party developer or publisher, not a console manufacturer.

I've explained myself using both subjective opinions on the matter and objective facts about Microsoft, but I'm the bad guy because I think they're doing poorly...despite the numbers supporting that assessment. I am not insecure, I'm tired of seeing bad logic being used to defend a company that keeps fucking up.

Been trying to discuss this sort of crap with them with their poor logic and fallacies and confusing subjectivity with objectivity and their disconnect with reality for ages. did it so much I got banned from the Microsoft forum. SOME fans can't handle reality. 

I love the WiiU but I accept that it failed. I thought the Vita was amazing but it failed just as hard. I'm not dying on a hill for those consoles no matter how much I love it. I felt both had great features and options, but clearly those features didn't resonate with audiences enough to overcome the shortcomings. My personal taste in games and my personal values on what is and is not good does not make a difference when it comes to facts. That's where I differ with Xbox One fans.

Please don't speak on behalf of the mod team, either of you. 

And, at this point you've both drifted away from the actual topic of backwards compatibility of the PS5. So, if you want to continue, get back on that topic. Otherwise, PM each other about it. Further derailing may, and most likely will, be met with thread bans or general bans as may be warranted.
