Forums - Nintendo - Wii: A truly great console

The Wii has been a great console. Mine sees daily use and will continue to be used after WiiU has taken its place in the entertainment center. Wii will be relocated to another room where my kids will continue to use it. I won't as all of its features are going to be in WiiU and I will only play on main TV.

I'll keep it until it dies. $250 well spent.

Well... since WiiU is tottally backwards compatible, I´ll just buy the WiiU and keep playing my unfinished Wii games along with new WiiU games.

Like you can see, when you ask a logical question you either get ignored or banned.

Maybe you can answer the question why is it ok for wagram to insult but the other user gets banned?

Wagram was being insulted along with a few others. Wagram might've got a warning but he doesn't deserve a ban. He didn't provoke those name callings.


1 wagram came in trolling the Wii and has done so on numerous occasions. For arguments sake lets let this slide

2 He insulted the guy by calling him a douche and insults is against the rules.

It¨s nr 2 I am wondering about, there is no reason to not ban him even if he got insulted first.

A few times I have insulted others and been rightly banned but about 7 out of 10 they insulted me first and I insulted back yet only I got banned (I just used my self as an example as it is easiear then searching something else up)

This is a pattern coming up again and again that Sony fans get away alot easier, granted there are a few sony fans on the mods shit list and they get banned fast but most sony fans that behave this way get away with it with the help of the mods.

The few mods that did the same thing but the other way are being maneuvered out.

If insults are against the rules then both should be banned no mutter who started it, don¨t you agree with that?

This behaviour of the mods and the sanction of this behaviour of the higher ups is the nr 1 cause people left and are still leaving this site and I bet most of them would come back as soon as the moderation is fair meaning that who ever you are or are a fan of if you break the rules you would get treated equally.

Why do you ban one member for insults but let Wagram insult with out consequense?

Your up to the sam bullshit as always ban any pro nintendo user but let the sony ones get away with murder. No wonder so many users left this site

 

PS. This is not solely directed at you it¨s common practice on VGC, I was hoping with your return this would change but obviously not.

The guy wasn't a total pro-Nintendo user. Plus, Montana bans any person that bashes a ceratin company. I've seen many Nintendo Trolls get the ban-hammer from him.

But you should've posted this on his wall. 


Like you can see, when you ask a logical question you either get ignored or banned.

So what did wagram do exactly?  Are you reffering to this "Wii was my most disappointed console this generation and of the Nintendo systems. Wii U's purchase will be determined based on what Nintendo can offer me. I'm not buying ports, nor am I interested in a lot of Nintendo's 1st party. Really all comes down to what JRPG devs do I suppose."

In no way is that insulting, trolling, or bashing of the Wii. He is simply stating his opion and weighing in on the potential appeal to him in the Wii U. This can't possibly be what you are reffering to.

He was calling the dude a douche and that is an insult and its against the rules, the rules should apply equally to all members no mutter who you are or which company you are a fan of.

Nah, if he had posted it on his wall, I probably would have banned him. Here, I can just ignore him.

A biased poster will see bias in the moderation staff. It's a continual trend.

I ask a legit question and your only answwer is either to ban me or ignore me?

Thats some really great job you are doing as a moderator, I expect a 5 year old having that behaviour not a grown man no less a grown man that is paid to moderate, where is your proffesionalism and pride in doing a good and fair job?

He called the guy who got banned a "Grade A douche".  Idk what the rules are around here for insulting when being provoked, though, but I don't think he deserves a ban!

edit: At least, I assume that's what Vaio is referring to.


Yes thats what i was referring too, I expect grown up people that get paid to moderate to do it the right and just way and treat all equally.

Even if the first poster deserved the ban so did the other as soon as he decided to answer with an insult, I would expect both to get banned but the first poster longer then wagram.

I'm sorry to say, vaio, but you need to get over it. This thread isn't about Moderation.

It should be when a moderator so grosly neglects to follow the rules he is paid to follow.

I wouldn¨t really give a fuck if it wasn¨t for the fact i really like this site and i dont like that users flee it, i want this site to become as great as it once was and for that to happend it¨s needed to adress the reasons people stop using it and this is one major one.

But if you are happy this site gets moderated to shit instead of excellense then thats your right to feel that way.

I want to know why he's throwing a tempertantrum. What I said about the Wii was not trolling, and both of the people up in arms about it can't deal with the fact that other people disagree with their opinions. No where did I troll or insult the Wii.



@Wagram He was referring to you calling me a douche and getting away with it. But i was banned for insulting you.
