What attacks on the characters of Sony fans did I make?

Look what your thread turned into in the first few pages. It's like you managed to successfully derail your own thread before it even had a chance to develop some legitimate discussion by throwing those first two sentences in there.
Had you posted it after a few replies from Sony fans saying "they'll be fine", then it would've been justified. The way you posted it straight off the bat did nothing to foster meaningful discussion and only served for people to disagree with what you posted.
Do you genuinely not see that?

I see your point, and if this was the first bad news about Sony's corporate financial situation in the last month or so, I would agree that my assessment was premature. But, two things. This is obviously not the first piece of news like this lately. The preponderance of responses have proven what I said, and I knew they would, because this isn't the first story like this lately. Secondly, this story has been out for hours and it hasn't been reported here yet, which can reasonably be interpreted as ignoring the significance of the news, as well.
I'll try to be less assumptive when making posts, and I will also scrutinize my wording with a high degree of care because I am starting to realize how sensitive fans of the leading, most technically powerful console can be about anything that reflects negatively on their system of choice. I am surprised by this revelation because applying 'treat others like you would be treated' standards to posts I've seen on the topic of the other systems, I would never have realized the high level of respect demanded of their vgchartz peers that this particular group apparently expects. I would hope that the same level of concern for the slightest offense will be shown on the other sections of the site, but I am not holding my breath.
