Hello Jay, I dont know if the others will agree with me, but i believe the joke, or punchine how you say, is about the unbiased reviews that have being made for the last weeks here in gamrConnect.

Unbiased reviews are something that doesnt exist, and the exaggerations are there to emphasize that any review made by anyone about anything will have this someone opinion on it.

This is not a joke thread about MK7 or ModNation Racers, how someones here thought.

 

EDIT: Roll was faster than me

As i've said before it's just a name of our group.  If you dont like our reviews then fine but before anything get's posted i do try to make sure something isnt being bashed for no reason and that something isnt being hyped for no reason.  Of course every review will have your own personal opinions in it but my goal has been the same as it was from the start.  Review something with what you think the general concensus of the game will be rather than to review it on your opinion.  I have declined reviews and helped edit plenty of reviews.  The people I work with does know that I try my hardest to make sure something is correct.  We may get things wrong sometimes but we do try.

Man, calm down.

I really, REALLY, like your group reviews, the last one that i read was about Bioshock. But the words "unbiased reviews" is something that is easy to be used in a joke.

Looks like you think this is some kind of attack on you or your group, but i dont see this way.

This thread should not be locked, i think the mod that locked the manbearpig thread exaggerated. Two wrongs dont make a right.

Exactly and I know mods has seen this thread as I reported it and I want an answer for the reason this is ok but MBP's wasnt?  

Why did you think my "PSABR is a MAJOR flop - we need to talk about it" thread was okay, but this one isn't?


I have no problem with these threads as they are jokes but they cant make double standards is what im saying.  If they are going to keep yours then MBP's shouldnt have been locked and vice versa

Oh no i think you are reading me wrong.  I could care less that they use An Unbiased Review as a joke.  I just dont like the double standard that is going on.  MBP did the exact same thing and his thread was locked and he got banned.  That wasnt fair to him

When I made a thread like this TADS tried to ban me for a week. http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=152067

OT: Great thread.


Yeah im a little shocked that this thread hasn't been locked.  Sounds like a double standard to me

He's lucky he didn't do a 360 vs. a Nintendo game.  We'd still be looking for body parts.  He would probably end up as pig-man-bear.


Well I find this ridiculous from the mods.  MBP should never have been banned or have his thread locked if this is allowed up.  They were both trolling.  Sure they are both obviously joking but if you're going to lock one then the other can't stay up.  To that I say the mods made a poor desicion whether it was for banning MBP or keeping Rol's up.  Double standards shouldn't be allowed.

it should be locked, we have been getting to much "joke" threads lately. if somebody wants to troll a game all he has to do is make one of these threads, bash it in a very unrealistic manner then just call it a joke, whats double standerds is that newer users would be banned if they even posted something like this, imagine what would happen if they made a thread about this. these threads add nothing useful to the forums. they are just intended to bash on the fans of a certain game/console.  i got banned for3 days saying a got about RROD, why is it that i got banned for one post thats two lines, and others wont get banned for an entire thread? i mean there both "jokes". and honestly when ever opening the site your seeing a billion "joke threads" pop up every day, and guess what? non of them are actually funny

Yeah, from what I've seen so far it seems if you managed to reach a certain point without getting banned you can almost write anything you like, no matter how rude or disrespecting it is...

Usually your threads are funny but I'm not seeing the punchline or wit in this one.


Maybe it hit too close to home?


Just earlier, you mentioned that you made a similar thread which was locked, implying that this thread should be locked too. And considering you're a massive PABR/Sony fan (looking at your sig), I could say the same about you.

But please explain this joke to me. All I see is praising one game while insulting another using hyperbole. Where is the punchline?

Ha ha ha! He's not a fan of Sony or PABR at all.  xD

He just lost a bet against Brendude. That's the reason for his sig. =D



Rol, you are unstoppable.

with that said it is clearly a joke and nothing more.  A lot of people do find it funny because it is hard to argue that MK7 is not good and that MNR Road Trip is not bad. Nobody cares about the scores as it is a joke, sense of humor buddy.  Just because you like sony doesnt mean you cant take a joke. 

I acknowledge that it's a joke. I'm just looking for an explanation on what makes this funny. 

If MK7 is a good game, then what's funny about saying "MK7 is very good"? 

And if MNR is a bad game, then what's funny about saying "MNR is very bad"? 

If what you say is true, then Rol is just speaking the truth. So where is the joke? 

The joke is claiming no bias and following it up with incredible bias. This thread isn't making MK7 look good and it's not making MNR:RT look bad. The joke isn't on either of the games, it's on myself.



I know you're not intending to bash any games. I just think the joke/wit was weak compared to your other works. What is your opinion of the quality of this joke?

It might look like a double standard on the surface, but the surrounding circumstances of MBP's and my thread aren't equal. MBP was coming off of only god knows how many locked threads due to inciting PS3 vs. 360 wars. He also had several threads where he stated in the OP "This thread was approved by moderator X." which still got locked eventually. It was only a matter of time until the mods would step in and lock one of his threads before the really bad stuff began to happen.

Additionally, his thread didn't have an opening paragraph like mine which alters the tone and conveyed message of the post.

ehhh, you're probably right.  I wanted to hear an answer from the mods but I have a feeling I would have gotten a similar answer.  in all honest i found both of your guys threads funny :)
