Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Newsflash: If you truly said something interesting every now and then, then you would have enemies. What people really think when they see your posts is this: "How does this guy have over 4,000 posts? I never noticed him before, at least I don't remember."


Lol, I guess I do kind of fly under the radar... Still, I think most active users have some idea of who I am... Im just not antagonistic with people I might disagree with, doesnt mean I dont say some interesting things...

How is my insinuation that MS is blowing smoke by announcing rehashes and sequels prior to E3 any different from others insinuation that Sony doesn't have games because they haven't made any announcements prior to E3?  It's an opinion.. just because it's my opinion that Halo 1-4 remake and Halo 5 isn't exactly newsworthy or worth popping champange over isn't any different from others opinion ridiculing Sony's numerous indie releases because it's not some AAA title.  So are Sony "blowing smoke" to people too because they've remained quiet thus far?   

The whole thread is about how "Sony is going to lose E3" because of games.. comon now.  So, again, how are crossovers and transplants insulting to those that have made the switch?  Is that not what they ultimately are, or am i to use a more cordial title?  Definition of "transplant - move or transfer (something) to another place or situation, typically with some effort or upheaval (wiki)", Definition of "crossover -a point or place of crossing from one side to the other (wiki)" ; and those are insulting enough for a ban?  And lastly, this post was made in a troll thread.  Twist it however you want, but if it's a predicition thread with the OP stating his opinion that Sony will not deliver, it is my opinion that MS is blowing smoke and Sony will be just fine. If my post was "trolling MS/Xbox" the whole thread was trolling Sony/Ps4.

The majority of people saying Sony have no games are generally PlayStation fans, mocking what people were saying. Think back to the old "Nintendo is doomed" rubbish we got from Nintendo fans back when the Wii and DS were breaking records. Its highly irritating, but there is nothing malicious behind it. Dont let it grind on you.

Anyway, your post was simply wrong as Microsoft haven't just been showing rehashes and sequels, they didnt just announce Halo. They have shown off Sunset Overdrive, Quantum Break and have been teasing new exclusives from JP devs. They havent been blowing smoke (neither have Sony), it just screams that you were just trying to spread FUD and take a sly dig at Microsoft. They arent trying to deceive people, theyre just showing off new games for people prior to a big show.

Re-read the OP of the thread in question. Look at what his points are with the "No Games!"/ "DelayStation" remarks. He is quoting people. Read beyond the headlines and see what Anfebious actually wrote and you can see that he isnt trolling or baiting.

You werent banned for calling people transplants, I personally just saw it as distasteful as a transplant is generally a replacement for something bad/ undesirable. You were banned for the blowing smoke/ rehashes/ sequels trolling.

So it's wrong, but does it make it not true?  Over 26000 posts and can be moderated quite frankly, yet the one who answers back are the ones that get the flak for the rebutal.. and in my case, because I am a "new user".  Check my other posts (I don't have much) and see who I answer back to, and tell me the posts I replied to weren't flame or bait worthy.  Heck check most of their comments.. nothing but flamebaiting/trolling..  But again.. here we are.  I was moderated.. they were not.  

If you have a problem with being moderated for taking the bait, just dont take the bait. Dont call someone a troll, dont answer a troll post. If you think someone is trolling or making bait threads, report them. Explain why you think they are trolling/ baiting and we will deal with it.

What's your opinion on people making threads just to rile people up? (and having evidence for it?)

I know people think I do that with my Nintendo threads but I've stressed so many times that I enjoy doing them and they have real relevance on this site, what with them being sales and normally factual. (not enough of that on here.)

Whereas some are doing threads like "Is Xbox dead" (mock example) just to wind people up.

Again I have proof that the purpose of thise user doing these threads is to wind up one individual.

Im going to cook something now, but here is my quick bit of input.

If you have proof that the user is making threads/ posts just to bait people (or even one specific user), then we can look closer at it if you actually show us the proof. I wouldnt advise putting it in here for obvious reasons and I cant promise anything will be done about it (and Im not really sure what the other mods' stance on it would be) but it would be a start. If theyre baiting, theyre breaking the rules.

That's a shame, the PM is incredibly cringey worthy, can I post a snippet but not say who the user is?

So long as you keep them rooted in good data (and better still you you provide either data or balancing date on the contrary) and direct the thread in a direction of ambivelance, honest curiosity and rationale, they are valid threads.

Yup, I always do, always backed up with figures and facts, that's what makes them fun! This user in particular tho will use whatever he came for the sole purpose of winding up a user (as he's admitted in the PM).

Sorry I didn't see this before I post.

 

Of course you can.  Granted it helps us to take action if we know who but if we understand your circumstance better, by all means let us know.
