He was given a warning and then decided to post this: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=5199636

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!! Don't get yourself banned, dude. We can't handle anymore Sony casualties!!

as it should be

lol i shouldnt be, i didnt personally attack him only stated he could be doing something more priductive then running around sony threads. although im a PS fan and hes a Xbox fan so its obviously in his favour. 

Another utter mod team failure. This site is beyond terribly modded, and opinions are treated as trolling, if they do not sit right with mods. I've seen it happen again and again, and it's just pathetic to watch. Grow up, and learn to accept other peoples opnion, even if they hurt your little feelings. I'll give my honest opnion on anything I like, and if I get banned by one of the incompetent mods, then so be it, it really will not be that big of a loss to me.

this post has been smited by axumblade, the incompetent (like I know what that means. e.e)

btw, i'm not calling you a baby

There might be a difference between "PS4 is too expensive for what it offers" (your example) and "Who is so stupid to pay that much for this piece of crap".

I give another example: I have a thread for people to gather for playing the upcoming MH3U together online. If people would come in and claim MH3U looks shit I would be upset. If I make a post claiming MH3U is great (or that I think MH3U is great) and people come in and say MH3U looks like shit I would disagree but not be upset. What is the difference?

First is a service for some readers of VGC that are interested in it. Same with JayWoods thread about the XBL-offering. People coming in to criticise the game/the service/the console are destroying the service offered by the thread for users interested in it. These people don't care, because they don't own the game/the service/the console in the first place. That is rude. That is like scratching cars of others.

Second example is offering an opinion for discussion. If others post differing opinions that the point of the thread in the first place.

If you can't see the distinction (and many other posters too) that is a bad sign for discussion-culture on VGC.

I don't see how it is trolling when someone posts what he thinks is a good deal and people state their opinion that they think it is not a good deal for them. It's the same when someone posts a "deal" for Vita memory cards, 95% of the responses will be "still too much, I can get 32gb for 20 bucks for my 3DS" and I think it's totally legit.

But I have already learned to stay away from MS threads as mods are just way more sensible when it comes to MS than everywhere else, and thats a fact. When I posted my negative opinion about Dishonored I was answered with "you have bad taste", "you suck" and "you are not a real gamer" instead of reasonable points why I'm wrong and the amount of shits given from mods amounted to zero. I haven't reported anyone though, maybe thats essential.

The internet needs less opinionated people who lack any sort of free thought and critical thinking skills, just like majority of today's university students.
