Miiverse is meant for a E+ crowd.  How you can assume some of your responses are appropriate for that crowd is just beyond me.  You're either an idiot ... no ... there is no other option.  Come the frick on!!!  How dumb are you?  Honestly??? 

No, don't try and hit that report button because you think I'm insulting you.  I'm not.  I'm being freaking honest here.  You read about the Miiverse before it ever comes out.  You are offered to read a TOS/EULA before you agree to sign into the Miiverse, and yet you still go beyond what is appropriate.  I'm freaking glad you're neither a US Marine or a Police Officer because you would appear to believe the rules only apply to everyone else not you!"

Follow the fucking rules and keep your fucking nose clean.  Stop being a moronic adolescent and act, neigh, be an adult.


Excatly...if you want to act like a juvi then do it here (no offense) but bring your civilized/mature attitude when you enter Miiverse!!!

Muahahahaha this is ridicilous Nintendo.

They should release a mature Miiverse with 18+ content, inaccessible by minors.

Nintendo is discriminating.


Nah...I love the moderation Miiverse has.  The community is so much more pleasant than the typical juvi community most has.  I love that Nintendo is really trying to take the fun out of all those who try to troll or act so juvi.  I myself spends time just browsing Miiverse to report ppl who I think violated the terms and conditions for the community. (hence that's why I will never share my Miiverse here lol).  I got a couple of ppl already actually.  Too bad I didn't get D2 heheheheehe

Damn, with people like you patrolling Miiverse, I'll be extra careful on what I say when I buy the wiiu.


Well I am an older gamer (34) so I don't appreciate the juvi's and their childish acts.  I honestly have only seen a few of them compared to what I experience with LIVE.  Maybe they don't like Nintendo much?  So far the people I follow and befriend are my generation or a bit younger (late 20's) and they agree with me and have started their patrols as well.

Yes agree, I played CoD for the first time in years and it amazed me how immature and racist people are on there.

Ugh. Miiverse is such a let down. All it is is poor drawings of characters and butt kissing.

Some of the drawings i've been finding are pretty good.

(mine suck)



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Damn, I need to add you to my Wii U friends list while it's still possible D21.

I say you lay low until the Miiverse civil rights movement fully takes off. After that, it'll be only a matter of time before it makes headline news. At that point, Nintendo will have no choice but to turn from their oppressive ways.

It's scary. I'm not sure I want any part of it. This is going to be like being pushed into cold water for a lot of the 'core' market Nintendo seems to want back. I understand kind of why they're being this way but I'm not sure they can have both worlds.

Hopefully they'll tone it down as the console gets a broader audience and as Nintendo gets more feedback and more familiar with this new setup.

Possibly.  Nintendo has to be a lot more careful about blacklash that Sony or Microsoft, though.  "My kid saw a penis on Xbox" wouldn't make the 6 o'clock news but "my kid saw a penis on Nintendo" would.  That's unfair in a way, though it's an image Nintendo themselves cultivated.  There are a lot of parents out there who believe that Nintendo isn't -supposed- to have anything not geared toward children.

If Nintendo wants both worlds, they're going to have to slowly change the culture of the system somewhat, I agree with you there, but they run the risk of alienating people on both sides before they reach that point.  It might be a bumpy ride for them.

Nintendo thinks that we are great drawers!

...Are you telling me my chance of being an artist isn't true?!

Er.  Typo.  I get used to spellcheck but it doesn't seem to work on this website when I quote someone.

Either that, or the super villain Blacklash isn't a Nintendo fan.

Apparently Nintendo doesn't like my style of posting.  Today, when I logged into my profile and tried to post some Arkham City pics on Miiverse, I was met with the sobering reality of the situation.  I was banned.  How did this come to be?  Let's look back.

November 24, 2012

I created a profile that said: "I've grown up with Nintendo since the Nes.  Ex-Cop/Ex-Airforce.  VGChart'z favorite son and all around good guy.  I'm the "Method Man" of the Wii U Tang Clan.

  • Twitter: d21lewis
  • PSN ID: d21lewis
  • XBL Gamertag: d21lewis"

That resulted in my profile being unavailable for viewing by anybody in the Miiverse.  The reason?  It was an attempt to "arrange a real-world meet-up"

The result-I edited my profile to leave out the other places where I'm called d21lewis and all was well.

 

December 24, 2012

After a month of good behavior, I was back on Nintendo's bad side.  I posted in the Call of Duty: Black Ops II Community:

"Got the 360 version for somebody else as a gift, today.  It supports 3D! AND NUKE TOWN!!"

A user by the name of "angry pat" replied: "You're a pu$$y loser"

I responded: "!? I  own every console.  I'm a pu$$y winner!"

That resulted in my post being removed for containing sexually explicit content.  Strangely, the guy to whom I responded wasn't modded until muuuuch later.  Anyway, let me note that the Wii U versions of Black Ops 2 and Batman Arkham City do not support 3D mode.  A bit of a big deal for me.  Couldn't find the info on the internet so I posted it on Miiverse.

January 4, 2013

A user by the name of *Raizo* posted in the BlOps II forum:  "My friend owns this on PS3 and comes over to play on Wii U.  That must be saying something."

I responded: "I own a PS3 and a 360 (d21lewis on both) and I'm on the Wii U most of the time.  That also says something!"

The result:   A message from Nintendo: My "post contained personal information so it was removed."  "It contained information related to an outside service (such as a user name or ID) or links to external websites that could be used to contact me directly."

I thought I was singing Nintendo's praises and offering proof that I really was a PS3/360 owner.  Mario was unmoved by my gesture.

January 1, 2013

The final straw.  a user by the name of angel posted "." (a picture of a dot)

I responded: Menstruation jokes are not funny. Period.

It took Nintendo almost a month to find my post but when they did, they hit hard.  I woke up this morning to find that I was banned at about 9pm last night.  I was a dead man walking for a post I made on New Year's Day.

 

So, if you're going to go on Nintendo's Miiverse, know this:  Princess Peach rules with an iron fist.  She's not fucking around.  If it can be interpreted as offensive, Nintendo WILL take action.  No Miiverse for me for two weeks with the stern warning that any more bullshit from me will result in a permanent ban. 

Now, I don't know what to do. :(


 I knew it was bad when i couldn't use my user name that I've used on xbox and psn. Freaking joke. Let it go, stop using Miiverse. Don't know what else to say about it.
