I have probably been here for a year or so with an absence of a few months towards the end of last year.  I certainly don't draw attention to myself like some people (Soriku, Leo-J, etc.), so that may be the reason.

funny , people are complaining about "stealth trolling" now , although a lot of them could be accused of doing so aswell including some mods

True Words of Wisdom

 I'll agree with that   8)

I never said that. I've told you I don't hate on any system, I just love my Wii. Jaffe's games would not be too my tastes, no matter which system they were released for.

It's amazing to me that you, and Legend, completely ignore my posts when they prompt you to yourself say, wheather or not you like the Wii, which you don't, yet you attempt to quote me when nothing negative to your argument can be found. Why haven't you responded to my questions about which system you find the least appealing?

Now, you say "Wii owners use the term Wii-hater as an excuse." I ask, as an excuse for what? That terminology implies that the Wii needs an excuse, and for what? Negative press. However, the entire point of implying you don't like the Wii, isn't to marginalize your opinions, its to state an assumption that you refuse to deny, based upon your posting history which is without a doubt anti-Wii.

I'm sure, that once you read this, you'll just fail to post again and pretend like this topic died, because you're very smart compared to the average Wii-hater, and have no moral qualms about attempting to appear unbiased when presenting your "news". However, you should have known that with the frequency of your biased against, not for, a system, your efforts would soon be sniffed out by the more astute posters.

You're asking us not to lable you. I wouldn't dare lable anyone. Their posting history does that for them, regardless of their intentions.

You, and Legend never post anything positive about the Wii, you consistantly post negative news and sometimes commentary about the Wii that, too Wii fans, is sometimes frusterating.

Instead of criticizing everyone for criticizing you about what you do, why not simply stop doing it. The only thing you'll lose is the obvious joy you get at bringing bad news to Wii fans.

I would expect no less harsher a treatment if I posted every negative piece of PS3 news as soon as I could get my hands on it.

You can't and won't deny you post negative Wii news often, you can't and won't deny the Wii is your third choice console, and you can't and won't deny that you don't like the direction the Wii is taking the gaming industry.

Yet you complain heavily when people marginalize your posts as the daily fix of a fetishist Wii fanboy torturer.

I call bullshit on this post and everyone who is defending its subjects.

Welp, didn't think I could get a response, figured that might even end the thread, well, let me give it a boost:

Either way, this post is good for Wii fans. Even the subject name is passive-agressive. "Some people" is a passive-agressive term, which allows you to rant all day about the ideals without having to actually call anyone out, which is good, considering the nature of your complaints in this particular post.

What will the end result be?

You've now concreted the possiblity that yourself and KoW(which I admit I had a part in bringing into this conversation) are in fact people who don't necessarily like the Wii or Nintendo.

All of your posts, now and in the future, will be seen by every poster in this topic, in that light. People will know that you have been accused of not liking the Wii, and look for any reasons available in your posts to bring it up.

"It's posts like that, that make people think your a Wii-hater"

or

"This guy is an anti-Wii fanboy, look at this post about it /link"

Believe it or not, not all posters are knowledgable of your antics and took your posts marginally seriously, as if perhaps you were simply a Wii fan that was dissapointed in todays news, when perhaps tomorrow, you might post something positive. You've now blown that assumption. You took this alligation mainstream.

Now you'll get called out everytime.

If you guys look carefuly, you will notice that it's always the people who aren't Wii fans that are getting called trolls. Now, I am not accusing the mods of being bias or playing favorites. I do, however, feel that the Nintendo fans are way to sensetive over the slightest criticism, regardless of if it's valid or not. As stated by the mods, it does not matter if a persons post had malicious intent or not. Instead, all it takes is someone to get pissed of over it. Nintendo fans will be upset over the smallest thing, and then they will proceed to report you. Thus, users are being banned and warned simply for voicing an opinion. It should not be this way, because then it will only result in bullshit bans. No justice will be served, which defeats the whole purpose in even having the mods around.

 That might explain it then, I've not been a member for very long (august 07).

Want to know something funny about the Galaxy vs. Sunshine thread?  It came along after several Halo 2 vs. Halo 3 graphic comparison threads in which almost nobody saw anything wrong but the moment I posted the same thing about Super Mario Galaxy suddenly many people were angry.  Add to that the fact that I was just reporting on a video on Gametrailers.com that was starting to get a lot of attention.
