Forums - Gaming Discussion - Why do people specifically enter a thread to bash on something

dsgrue3 on 06 March 2013

Jesus christ, I had to scroll for like a half an hour after JayWoods' last post. How is shit like that acceptable?

OT: It's not trolling to voice your opinion. In that thread in particular I think people saw Rare and a bunch of exciting adjectives...then saw Kinect...and were instantly disappointed. No trolling at all.

Hmmm I wasn't aware of a thread before, but, well I don't understand what you want. I gave you your answer. :D Nobody likes Rare.

But yes, I did write that post before you changed the name to bashing.
Bashing something is not against the rules...which reminds me of a certain ban I received recently where I was.


I know what ban you are talking about.  You was flaming more than bashing.  And yeah ive been banned on occasions i dont agree with either so you arent alone on that one.

But yeah, people dont like rare so why comment in rare threads?  that is my question.  I mean if someone doesnt like Sony  and god of war then why go in the thread to bash it.  I understand some threads where people get into disputes due to a disagreement.  I just dont understand the ones that specifically goes into bash something.  

Saying "ms, are you even trying" is not flaming or trolling. Flame-baiting, aka trolling, was like your topic about Apple fan thread. Notice the clear difference? (Apparently Amp cannot :D) Anyway, that's for a different topic.

To answer your question about why people go into threads to "bash", it's because we're your friends, and when one of your friends says, "I know I know, I'll show her my saxaphone and hold her and cry", you're supposed to come in, slap that friend in the face, and say "pull yourself together, jim". It's HELPING *tongue in cheek*

Because people make *Broken English* topics with titles such as, "Why *does* people..." way to damned often on this site ><

I'm sorry, I know English isn't the first language for many people here; but it hurts my head sometimes!

Wouldn't that just be a comma? Not a semi-colon?


Would semicolon be like "half-assed?"

Goodness me you're making a lot of pointless threads today.

This graph is clearly spin designed to make 7 threads seem like a lot.


Eh, ended up doing it since it's not that much of a hassle. Sorry for the rushed formating.

Big blue one is JayWood.

 

Edit: Data is from 300 threads (10 pages of hot topics). I opened the 10 pages, refreshed them all at the same time.

Why do you ask about the <10 threads?

Stating your opinion or facts is not trolling, learn what it means then maybe you can try and prevent it ... if it actually happens.

A semi-colon is ;. So I don't really know what you mean. (Are you talking about the hyphen in the word?)

lol he's self banned.

My question was that I saw jaywood, and pezus, bananaking, and superchunk, and then I'm like 'how does cold-flipper have so many thread on hot-topic right now'. I'm just surprised that he has >10 threads, yet I don't know him, since that would suggest he's as active as one of those previously mentioned.

Why does people enter a thread specifically to troll something that they dont like.  I make a MIcrosoft thread and see one MS fan and 10 sony fans tolling or vice versa. 

Why does people do this?


Because this thread has to games!  JK
