If you feel offended by a certain post, you can just report them instead. The report button is there for a reason.


A thread about a tweet from some archaic nobody twelve levels down the heirarchy of Sony(or simularly silly) happens so much that how do you deal with it?

 

The fact that things like that are left overwealms other comments and sources and makes people with other views feel so pushed to the side that they don't even bother posting the "other side" of console news any more.   Trust me when I say i'm far from the only person who feels this way.

Go look at the avatars and signatures of most of the posters now and you'll have your answer.

By ignoring the freaking thread. I think life is better spent not taking Forums too seriously. This type of reactions just fuels the people you hate.

my point is that this isn't going to help anything.  This thread will get locked, because it is flamebait, and you will probably get moderated.  

Honestly, it isn't that the site is blind to other fans, it is just that sony fans are by far the most populous group on here.  If you want to talk about just xbox stuff, than site probably isn't for you.  Because microsoft fans are a minority here.  It is just the way it is.  If you want to change the site, go out into the real world and get people to come here.  

WRONG...you are WRONG sir.  The others have been pushed off this site with systematic allowance of any single post that pro Sony fans feel like posting all day long.  This site used to have an equal amount of users but so many MS users have left for sites where they don't feel abused or pushed around.

If someone asked me for a good non biased site for people to post to post to, I'm sorry but I would not send them here.  I've been here since the beginning(I started on another account but lost the details) and I've watched people from other views melt off this site to the point where it might as well call itself Sony HQ.   It makes me sad but it's true. :/

Sounds GREAT but when you have 10 posts of tiny incremental(read almost useless) data posted on a particular console and then one post pops up about something else, it gets lost in the clutter and people with alternative views get to a point where they feel pushed off the site.

The mods for the most part do a great job here however when the amount of content (and its usefulness in the grand scheme of things) is the problem, it overwealms and makes people uncomfortable with just reading so much stuff and makes them want to go elsewhere.

 

Look, this site deserves a well and deep representation for all consoles and it did at one time.  I don't know what the answer to fixing it however on it's currnt course, there will soon be NO alternative views to Sony on here.

I've seen sony users pushed off as well.  It is the style of poster.  If people are confrontational, they get pushed out, because it doesn't facilitate discussion.  Also, I have been here for a long time as well, at not point has this site ever had an equal amount of fans.  Maybe there use to be more nintendo fans, but their decline is probably more to do with nintendo than any poster on here.  Either way, this thread is unneccessary and like I said, won't end well.

No, attack there...no none at all.   If you weren't totally attached to Sony Mr Little Big Planet, you'd have a clue about what i'm talking about.

That was the most intensely childish OP I've seen in a very long time.  Impressive.

And if you think Nintendo fans have little presence on these forums, I don't know what to tell you.  They're every bit as active as Sony fans under normal conditions--which weeks before launch is not.  As for Microsoft fans, what the hell do you want the mods to do?  Go recruit them from other websites and forums?

I see the problem here... You don't know what an attack is. Saying that staying out of threads that annoy someone is that easy is in no way an attack.

And you can still represent. I mean look at us Vita users, we stick to a freaking one thread. We get killed by every bad Vita news but to hell with that. Why would we let our love for our console be affected by people who has no intention of even buying it. Remember you are not alone.

Just allowing a plethora of pointless tiny incremental threads being posted by overzealous Sony users destroys the ability for others to feel like they're a part of the site or being properly represented.  We're talking about stuff as little as people commenting on tweets from unknown people who alledgedly work for companies for Sony information.   

I'm a Pro MS fan.  I'm telling you that after being here for over six years that I don't see much point posting here anymore.  The site has allowed pro Sony users to dominate information and posts to a point that nobody else wants to post here any more.  If you don't see a problem with that, then you really need to step back and look a little more at how someone other than yourself might feel.  There is ZERO empathy for MS or Wii users here...  I don't want to openly attack Sony users due to TOS of this site but there is so much posted here that is....fluff at the best and less than that at the worst.(i'd love to use much stronger words which I feel apply).
