Mods, take this as an example:

"None. ZombiU is garbage. Only "good" games are multiplatform, and why buy a game on an inferior platform. Especially anything multiplayer related. So right now, they have no "wow" type titles. WiiU's best title is Mario, and that is old in feel. But then again, that is Nintendo's fault."

This got me banned because a mod didn't like that I called the WiiU an "inferior platform" when in my opinion. It is. And I still believe that. That isn't bashing, I am stating my opinion on a product that brings me displeasure.


Or this post that got me banned for "trolling". We can't say trolling, but you can call me one? Come on!

"Course not, it's old and washed up hardware. Only the WiiU can even compete with the PS3 and X360, and yet we don't know if 3rd party devs will support it. So this is a big guess still. And god knows when the next gen for Sony and MS starts. Can smell disaster for the WiiU, so of course the Wii shouldn't be bought by any sane person. Just a fad console selling shovelware and call them games..

I just think their model on the Wii was extremely poor. And with the WiiU tech, seems far to unimpressive. I don't hate Nintendo at all, but they deserve to fail this generation, so they can prioritize themselves as I think it's needed. They need to get in touch with gamers. They are always on a different planet doing their own thing, and make us gamers happy very little of the time. Sony is the only one not faulting big time on this. Hence why Sony exclusives are so good compared to the competition, because they make it a priority. MS wants to be the center of your living room. Gaming is almost 2nd hand."

Displeasure with reasoning. I don't get why you mods try to control the site by trying to control peoples opinions by fear of a ban. Again, I for one want to see and hear what people dislike, it helps you gauge the material far more fairly. But with all the modding, the worst you hear is, "I don't like the game". People are affraid to call something for what it is.

The two underlined sentences don't leave too much room for maneuver and for an opinion.

The mods try there hardest, but I do think some bans that users receive can be a bit harsh. Like telling someone to shut up cmon that's not worth a ban :P



 

How to Make friends In Dark Souls 3

At man-bear-pig: You simply dont got it. Did i mentioned Microsoft fan in my post?No. They should ban or warn people which always try to bash all the tiem and fuck off all the other people which like to talk and argumenting peacufully. It doesnt matter if its a Microsoft fan, a ninty fan or a sony fan. Hope you got it now.

AT KylieDog: cant agree more.

I think the tone of the forum is growing more and more wildly out of control.

Soon it's goign to be impossible to rein in.

I disagree with some bans and locked thread... the people is just too sensible for nothing.

Except these over exaggeration the mod team is doing a fine job (not great).

Vgchartzers like to be free to talk about anything.

Obviously you have not been here in a while. They have been on point, and stillnthings are crazy. Vgchartz does not like to be ruled plain and simple. People need to get used to it. Last free forum on the Internet.

Mods tried your way yet again and it has become chaos. Told ya so.

The forums are a shambles. Attacks on users all over the place. Little groups of people that try get a rise out of another group of people. 50% of the active members think that there is some real console war and cry at the slightest negativity.

Moderation really does need to be firm. I said a while back that I thought we needed say, 2 more active mods and I stand by that. The noose needs to be tightened.

We got the noose tightened on spam, we now need it to be tightened in other areas.

Adding...

The SDF x MDS complains is just too ridiculous for me... that's the main and strong point of this community... the fact you can discuss with the MDS is funny and the only thing I went to this forum.

That's not a random site... that's a videogame fans site to talk about their preferences and fight for it. That was the main point of vgchartz community and today the forum lost all this unique charm and the most funny users says good bye because this attempt to transform this forum in a general pacific forum.

I won't give up in memory of this forum's soul.

Happy New Year!!!

PS. I miss @seece and I will miss @selnor too... I want they back again.

I think they are fine how they are. What is two more mods going to do? Magically make the other mods more strict? They have already said they have the reports under control. Maybe let go the ones who are here once a month.

As for being strict.....people are already leaving left and right because of various reasons. No older members are still magically coming back either. Being more strict has not worked so far. A new rush of new users and a new console and Christmas has helped. These new members signed on to how the charts have been over the past six months. They

That's sad... the mostly funny 2007 users left the site.
