This thread/the opening poster doesnt exactly help out the MS threads either.  If you're not liking the threads for MS then why not post a more productive thread that you wish to see rather than a thread that really wont help solve your issue.

So now I am not well grounded and I let bias get in my way?

You're really starting to piss me off Seece.

 

I have a good challenge for you. Go through VGChartz and find people who post more positive Microsoft news than I do. I bet you don't find many.

Really, the amount of negative Kinect threads I see you post is starting to piss me off, to top it off, you don't even own a 360 and don't even like Kinect? If you think posting a few good topics as a smokescreen redeems you you're wrong, I've seen enough over the last few months. I'm not calling you a fanboy, I don't think you're one, but I think if you dislike 360/kinect that much you should just ignore it. I guess your justification will be "all news should be posted good or bad"

My most recent Kinect thread.

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=118454

My very informative response to someone looking to purchase a 360.

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=118454

Another positive Kinect thread. 

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=118447

First Kinect Commercial.

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=118149

 

This is the only Kinect threads I have made within the last 6 days, I refused to look any further.

Within that time I have mentioned my disliking for the Dance Central's soundtrack (Although I have numerously expressed my interest in the title) and HSN's broadcast practices.

 

Can you link those negative threads please?

Link them yourself, you know which ones they are and don't seem to mind sifting through your post history. I don't need to post which negative threads you posted to prove a point, because it wouldn't. It's a fact you've posted them so what use would it do posting them here? Heck even an admin I spoke to thought it strange you had FIVE negative Kinect threads on the 1st MS page at one point.

You're not a 360 owner? You don't come across as being pro 360 (You're quite right at one poinmt I remember you being so) so what possess' you to post all that negative news you do?

I'm in a similar boat to you, vice verser,  I don't own a PS3. But I'm perfectly fine with PS3 and PS3 games and to a point Sony, but I wouldn't dream of posting negative Sony articles at the rate you do, heck if ever, I think I posted one last year. IT IS riling people up, and more and more 360 fans are noticing, so it isn't just me.

In a very extreme comparison, it's like a homophobic man hosting gay news, it just pisses me off no end.

I'm not going to bring it up again, you'll do what you want to do I'm sure, and I don't think you should be moderated for it, I just think it a shame you insist on posting ANY Kinect news tbh, why bother? you're not even getting the thing, why are you so intent on keeping us all up to date on it?


well, someone has  to

If MS, Sony, Nintendo  do stupid stuff they will hear from me, I don't care. These are companies, I don't own their stock. This is a forum, I am not trying to be nice, I am trying to give an opinion without flaming, trolling.

I still class you as one of the few Sony posters (and yes I've always stuck you in that field) that I respect when it comes to opinions on 360/MS.

You have had a serious personality trasnplate recently though, you use to be so laid back, now if anyone questions anything Sony/PS3 you lash out. You never do the same for MS/360 and NO you're wrong about Wii/PS3 getting more negative news than 360. There is practically one bad Kinect articles posted on here daily, and without fail one from Euphoria weekly.

I spent the last 3 months rooting for the Wii, I had huge disscussion about how it will comeback this holiday season.

I have not said one bad thing about Kinect, I actually said Kinect has better games than Move.

The reason I have been vocal about the PS3 lately is the hating that has been going against the Move.

I rather enjoyed the Destructoid article that was linked to in this thread.

There has been just as much crap thrown at Kinect as there has been Move. and Kinect hasn't even launched yet, god have mercy on us 360 fans when it does. You don't need to tell me you like the other 2 companys, I already know you do, but in a subconsious non-negative way I've always throught of you as a Sony fan first and foremost, and you've lately proved this.

And you've been rude to me lately when it was uncalled for, I don't call move shit, I don't post negative Sony threads, I don't talk down PS3 games, yet you have these inane provacative posts waiting for me everytime I don't paint T.H.E rosiest picture of Sony.



 

u cant really post opinions on these forums, u have to be very careful not to hurt the fanboys feelings

 

the Fanboys  call you troll . hater   lool

Link? I've more than likely seen more Kinect videos than you and I've never heard anyone say Kinectic.

Now, what a surprise that YOU came running along asking for a link. I'll see what I can find, but to be honest, I don't really care if I please you or not. I got better stuff to do than search around the net for an old link. I know what I heard. Now try to discredit me all you want, I don't care. I simply remember it because someone on a forum pointed out that Kinetic was a game for the EyeToy and that he [MS guy] was calling Kinect for Kinetic.

- "But you need to back up your statement with links!"

- NO, I don't.

At least they did it in the (most likely proved fake) take-down notice sent to Destructoid. 

Well, yeah you do , it's not as people are going to believe you otherwise, why shoud they? It's obvious you have a chip on your shoulder regarding Kinect and will make up any old shit.

Mythbuster - UNCONFIRMED

Its obvious you got a chip on your shoulder regarding whos a fanboy, and will make up any old shit. LOL!

Me and Euphoria know he's posted them, he'll admit that himself. So yeah posting them wouldn't prove anything, and this is an issue between me and him, if anyone else wants proof they're free to look at his post history.

Seriously the amount of shit in the forum is ridiculous.  Take a look at the thread "I am really, really close to buying a 360" to see exactly what I mean.  It seems to happen in almost every thread here, especially any thread that says anything positive about the system. 

Sometimes I actually wish the PS3 had been more successful because it might have resulted in better discussions in the Microsoft forum.  I seem the remember Xbox 1 discussions on the Internet in which you could actually talk about the system and its games without the constant trolling.

I'm not sure what can be done and maybe it's unreasonable to expect this forum to only have serious meaty thought provoking discussions but it would be nice to be able to have at least a few of them or even regular casual threads without it becoming a chore to sift through the garbage to follow them.

This pretty much sums it up http://www.destructoid.com/fact-ps3-fanboys-are-the-worst-149259.phtml


OMG that was one of the best things I've read this year.  And so fitting for what this forum has REALLY turned into as of late.

I think the difference between a fan and a fanboy needs to be clear.  While there may be a number of fans here, the relentless nature of the fanboys causes a thread like this to be started.  And its really, really sad that a thread like this even exists, but the fanboys have beat up the TC so much that he felt a call to arms was needed.  And I understand where he's coming from, as I have repeatedly tried to be reasonable, respectful and balanced here as well only to have fanboys ruin all good presented.  

There are so MANY of them here that it can be extremely frustrating.

So why not just go to another forum?  Does that help VGChartz?  Seriously, that would be the WORST thing for the site.  So yes, this behavior is destructive to the future of this community.

So what do we do about it?  Ignore the fanboy trolls?  That only works when there are a few of them.  There are far too many here and the mods honestly seem overwhelmed.  I think what we need is help from the Sony FANS that can read an article like what was on Destructoid and feel ashamed that other PS3 owners act like that.  Remember back in the mid 90's when Chris Rock declared that there was a civil war going on in the black community between black people and n****s?  That's what we need here with PS3/Sony FANS and FANBOYS.  They're ruining things for you guys so help reel them in by marginalizing them.  Us 360/MS FANS need to the same with respective FANBOYS too (granted its a much easier job, but I digress ...) as well as Wii/N FANS.

Regardless, YOUR post history tells the story of your actions here and you can either make this community a better place or a worse one.
