Rumors." https://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=9407699 But when SMG showed you rumors that ended up being true, you said: So it's either a shift of goalpost, or you are just plain wrong to say "Stop. Believing. Rumors.", because some may be true, so it would be right to believe them. |
Just remember I listed more rumors that were false, than rumors that were true.
It's not a shifting of the goal post.
Because it doesn't matter how many rumors end up being true or false, the fact there is always false rumors means you never should trust rumors. Period.
Hence my point... Stop. Believing. Rumors.

This is all irrelevant. Because you don't know if a rumor is true or false until months/years later when a product is officially announced.

So the best is to inspect rumors and look for patterns, to Fit into A & D as much as possible. Easy, no black and white necessary, just use your logic and filter the rumors according to a few criteria. This is much more constructive than flat out discrediting all rumors as you're suggesting. So stop. |
You are literally arguing for people to support false information and the propagation of it... Based on the remote possibility of it might being true?
This is why the saying "Even a broken clock is right twice a day" exists.
