Disrepectful? This bothers them?


If so, they seriously need to grow thicker skin.



You want to know what was disrespectful? The entire intitial XBone reveal.

Do unto other as you would have them do unto you.

 

 

Edit - By the way, I never use it as a means for disrespect. I use it because:

A.) It is much easier to write than XBox One.

B.) It sounds cool.

Major Nelson's opinion=Microsoft's opinion?

Btw the intitial XBone reveal just did what they talked about before the reveal,people didn't pay attention doesn't it's MS problem

How did you possibly get that from what I said?

He said it was disrespectful to the creators, which unless they said something I don't know why he would even mention it. That is why I followed it up with "If so". If it is his opinion and his alone, well, point still stands, he needs to toughen up. You didn't see Sony people whining because people called the original PS3 the "PS Fat".

Also, MS never talked about anything to do with trying to wipe away 2nd hand retail, requiring 24-hour check-ins and the like, so how is that all of a sudden become blamed on the consumer when they react to the reality of the concerns they had before hand that MS chose not to address? Those were all rumors. Nothing was official at all until the reveal.

Obviously it was MS problem since they quickly chose to change.

I just say XOne or X1. But yes Xbone is very disrespectful and as some one pointed out to me before its weird it doesnt get moderated. Ill post the exact message below (Not me saying it). To clarify this person left the site a long time ago.  But i do agree with his point.

"BTW I've always preferred the abreviation X1 over XBO. I think it looks cooler and it doesn't encourage the awful "Xbone" which should be warnings from mods if used. Can you imagine if Xbox fans went around saying PeeS4 or Wii Eww? Both would get banned, but for some reason it's ok to say Xbone or just flat out call it "The Bone"."

Double standards on VGC. Good example is people saying Xboner and no moderations.

Banned for using XBone? Why? I use it not because it's meant in disrespect but because I found it a good abreviation that was shorter than Xbox One, sounded fun. Maybe you should be less hurt by a term that doesn't meant anything. I couldn't care less what people called the Pee$4 or Wee (on) You.... PSFatter? 3Di... that's a bit rude actually.

 

Original PS3 was and is to this day called "PS3 Fat".

 Where were all these white knights back then?

 

 I guess at this point we should put a "-" between XB and One so people stop whining about something so incredibly stupid.

I can't believe this is actually an issue...

Shorter versions would be X1, XBO, or Xone.  All shorter.   And he said warnings should be given because yes some mean it to be disrespectful. Especially when people say Xboner or The Bone. As he said, I guaruntee if people did similar things with NIntendo and Sony they will be banned.  Not saying the mods are biased but it is the way it works.

Nobody got banned for calling the initial PS3 the "PS Fat". You know why? Because nobody cared! Nobody cared about what people chose to call a gaming console.

Larry should just quiet down and man up. It's a name and it's a name that makes sense.

 

The fact that this is even an issue right now is ridiculous. What? Do we need political correctness now for what to call objects made of metal and plastic? Have we really become THAT emotionally attached?

Attached?  No.  Disrespectful yes.   And as far as I am aware we call the PS3 Phat that because of the much slimmer model.  

The trolling has went way to far in the last year and yes many things will be disrespectful.  If you dont agree that is fine. 

You should not be politically correct, but everyone should at least be respectful too.  Or have we forgotten how to do that?

No, seriously, it was called 'fat' because it was huge, bigger than the original Xbox which me and my friends have jokes about, like 'yo mama so fat' except about the Xbox.

He's really not kidding, it's a piece of hardware. This is a total non-issue.



Hmm, pie.

Nope,Major Nelson is right

http://www.reddit.com/r/xboxone/comments/1m8w0q/microsoft_now_owns_xbonecom_the_xbox_one_nickname/cc6uz4o

And it's not like he have overreaction for the name,he just not prefer it,but well,"some people" have overreaction for that again,and as usual

But yes,it's disrespectful,it's not because just the name,it's because how people use this name


And when i'm talking about 2nd hand or 24 hour things?i'm talking about gaming and other features,it's people not pay attention before the reveal

Sudden?they announce it in official site,how is that sudden?and it's officially announce AFTER the reveal,what the hell you even wanna talking about?

 

The only group are thicker skin is some people complaing anything about MS did/do/will do and click in the thread to complaing or shit on it every time,every freaking time



MS should change the name just to mess with the trolls that came up with that stupid name.
