I'm just being honest with you here. You've done a really good job in the last few days to give a bad impression of yourself. When you act in the way you do, you reap what you sow, as they say. I know, you don't care. But suffice to say that because of your attitude, I don't believe for a moment that you had no intention of baiting people. That it was just an innocent comment "just for fun".

The way you let your ego loose here, over this "liar" comment, and how you responded in anger... Usually, the ones who aren't guilty don't respond as strongly as you did here. Could be wrong though. Maybe you just have an inflated sense of pride. That being said, I don't know you enough yet to make a definite judgment call on your persona. But that's where you stand as far as I'm concerned.

Ok, let me afford you the courtesy of being honest with you: Do yourself a favour and stop trying to build a case to defend calling someone a liar. Yes, I take extreme offense to being called a liar because I go very far to make sure that I don't lie. Ever. And especially not for some meaningless little piece of nonsense like this. You have no reason to keep implying that I have lied, go ahead and suspect whatever you like. I don't care. Don't continue to press that point unless you can prove that I have been dishonest. Which you can't, because every word I have typed is true.

I will leave it to yourself to ponder what kind of impression you give of yourself when you try to pull the kind of stuff you did in the post above.


But, that would be assuming I care about what you think of me, right?

I don't have an ego big enough to ask that people see me the way I want them to see me. If they think I'm so bad, based on my actions in the forums, then, so be it. Won't prevent me from sleeping at night. That's for sure. But I've made a few friends in here. And I do care about their input. If I step out of line, they'll tell me. And I'll react accordingly. You? You're way too full of yourself for me to care about what you think of me.

There was both cause and reason. You said that you were just having fun in your original post. That could easily be interpreted as lying. 


And that's where you are wrong. It's not a reasonable assumption to think people are lying just because they are having some fun. Anyway. I am done with this. Keep this conversation in mind the next time someone accuses you of something you didn't do on this forums, eh?

And you should keep this conversation in mind next time you try to derail a thread with obvious flamebait. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!

Great, so then we can move with you thinking I am so full of myself I don't deserve a second of your thoughts, and I can think of you as a reasonably articulate poster who makes some great observations while being slightly oversensitive. You will go on your merry ways while I will lose sleep trying to figure out how I can get back in your good graces. Anyway, as longs as you don't try to pin a liar tag on me without good reason I think I can live with this arangement. Deal?

Then we can end this exchange in perfect agreement, I guess all is well in the world

All is not lost! You entertained my sleepless night a little. I thank you for that! 

 

And just between you and me, you may get the last word here since I reported myself for telling you you're "full of yourself". Isn't that fair enough? ^_-

But the most important thing is that you derailed the thread. And you did just what I thought you'd do. Look for cities until you find one with PS4 in stock. So in the end, your location may not have any in stock. You may have just wrote that comment to spite people and bait them. So finding a random city that have some in store is just your saving grace. That doesn't prove you didn't originally lie. 

I don't believe impertinence derailed the thread at all. I think everyone who jumped on him because of his statement derailed the thread. His statement seemed to be a very lighthearted statement directed at the failures of walmart.com's tracking service, not the PS4's selling ability (which I do believe nearly everyone admits is sold out in most places). If anyone had a problem with his statement (which I definitely did not), they should have reported him and moved on. However, they didn't do that. They attacked him and kept attacking him even after he said he shouldn't have made the statement.

@impertinence, JoeTheBro, FusionCode, banaking21, Hynad: You're all equally guilty of derailing this thread.

I think bigd615 has it right, the way I read it , the comment was a dig at Walmart.com's stock tracking abilities, not at an attempt to ridicule either the PS4 or the Wii U's sales. But if any of you guys had a problem with the post, you just report it and move on.



Signature goes here!

I thought this thread was about Wii U sales? If you have disagreements with each other over something unrelated you could perhaps move the discussion to a more private area?

No doubt the Wii U is picking up in sales in a significant way, I'm positive about the momentum continuing into the next year.

So you were just trolling...

Of course he is. Why else would he bring up a completely unrelated topic in a WiiU thread? And then admit he was lying?

Get a grip. I never admitted to be lying. The facts are that the walmart website shows the PS4 in stock in my area in several stores. Is it related to the topic? Nah, probably not. Is it accurate? Probably just as accurate as the Wii U numbers, meaning not at all. Is it funny? Apparently not to you. Was it a lie? No #$#@! way, and I don't appreciate being called a liar for no damned reason. Learn some manners.


You speak about manners, yet you go off-topic, curse and tell him to "get a grip"....

Maybe you should try again? I expect better from someone who claims to be smarter than 80% of all users on VGC.

Yeah, when people call you a liar for no good reason feel free to frown your eyebrows and give a muted tsk if that's what you prefer. I'm not letting people get away with it when they try that shit with me.

The point still stand. If you don't have good manners, don't ask people to have any. You came in here and derailed the thread. Obviously in an attempt to get a rise out of people. That's certainly not good manners.

Now why don't you give us a link from those walmart websites you speak of? What location?

Your point stads and is still a weak, puny point. There's nothing wrong with calling people out who call you a liar when you haven't told a lie.

That said, It was a mistake to bring this up obviously, lesson learned. The worlds thinnest skinned Bananaking even got an opprotunity to report me to the mods for the slightest imaginable little triffle. I am sure everybody is pleased.

If you don't mind, I'd rather not give my location, I guess I could post a screenshot but I really don't feel like opening a photosharing account just for something as trivial and stupid as this has become. Anyway, I picked a random store in New York and set it as my store. It turned out to be the Valley Stream store. Same story there, they report having it in stock as of midnight today, and so does many other stores in that area.

That's not very nice.

Also, If you only checked one store then how do you know a bunch of other stores have it in stock?

Well, it's not very nice to run crying to the mods for the slightest little thing either. Anyway, on walmart.com you can check the stock for a product, and it lets you also see stock for other stores in the area.


How are getting PS4 to show on Walmart? It won't show me.

Also when you say Valley Stream, you talking about Long Island. I live on LI which is why I am curious. Haven't been able to find them in stores.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.
