I know but I also felt the last title was not entirely true cause he did break the rules so he kinda deserved the ban. 

EDIT: Ok I'll change it back if its causing confusion.

Not sure what would be an appropriate title.

I believe this is one of the big problems with the internet and these types of articles. The headline paints a picture that this guy was banned because he submitted feedback to MS on an external HDD issue. A lot of people never go to the article and are making judgement and decisions on the headline. Now the thread is full of misinformation and people taking a stance on limited info.

seems a blatant case of him breaking the terms of the beta agreement, he wasn't banned for the feedback, he was banned for breaching his contract. The headline in no way represents what happened.

I think you are overestimating a lot of users.  

I'm not saying it is difficult, or anything to that extent.  I am merely saying that so many people have absolutely no idea about a lot about computers.  As far as they care, the computer is a magic box.  

In my school, even some of the more "tech-savvy" have little idea about it.  

This is a fair point.  Remember Microsoft have gone to a lot of effort to innoculate users from  the C:/ world.  Many many users lose confidence at any tasks beyond installWizard.

What's a drive letter?  It doesn't have one? I see something that says C:, do I click on that?  My screen's gone black...

Except there is no need to teach them anything.

You have them follow instructions to complete a task they want to achieve. 

Game. Set. Match.

Have any of you written end-user documentation?  Or even support documentation?  The point of support or trouble-shooting documentation isn't to educate the reader on what they're doing or how they're doing it, just to get to the proper end result.

Windows 7 and higher, for certain, won't allow you to delete the volume that the OS resides on.  You also can't select a drive letter already in use.

Lastly, it would be nice if the people arguing for a point actually knew how what they were arguing against worked before they attempted their argument, because I can sit here and swat flies all day, but I'm wasting my time doing so. 

I presume you realise that just because you assert a position that doesn't mean that you have made a compelling argument.

I believe you've written end-user documentation.  I don't believe you've written fool-proof end-user documentation.

Did you even read my post?  I've not argued against anything - I simply identified that there are users who would not be confident performing tasks more complex than simple installations.  Are you seriously arguing against that?

Maybe you'd find the flies would go away if you stopped talking shit.

Since you ask.

Vita needs cheaper ones that is for sure,

http://business.financialpost.com/2014/05/27/nintendo-announces-new-youtube-affiliate-program-focused-on-getting-ad-revenue-from-fan-videos/

Get approved by nintendo to do reviews. That is bullshit shitty.

Their rights to do so. And better than the current policy, you might get a part of the cake this time after all. And I find it better, this way people share contents for fun and not for money.

Excuse me? This way, people who would otherwise share content for fun don't share it because they'd have to to through Nintendo's program unless I'm missing something here, and instead the people that want to share for money will do it because they're greedy and a small obstacle won't hinder them much.

I've been uploading Nintendo content videos and had no troubles, it is if I activated ad revenues on them that I would have some problems with Ninty, but with the upcoming program, people would get part of the money generated with videos, instead of nothing at all. Of course other companies don't give a crap and let people generate money without asking for a part of it, but they could do, it's their rights.

Can't even believe what im reading. This is literally the first time i have come across a gamer who is in support of Nintendo's youtube policy.

People who do lets plays DO NOT get paid for not doing much. The only way you get paid is if people actually watch you. And to top it off they really dont get much. You have to have a serious amount of subscribers and regular viewers to make a decent amount of money.

The Youtube program from Nintendo is petty. They are taking a cut from add revenue from the people who supported them and freely advertise their games. Its a low move and a big slap in the face to their fans.

Also do you really think Nintendo will let you be a partner if you are critical of their games while playing it? You dont see any problem with this especially effecting the impartiality of the youtuber?


So then guess how the youtubers became famous in the first place? Correct!  because they played the games people knew and were only found because someone looked for e.g Mario etc. on youtube.  So not only does a lets player "support" the company but the company made the lets player famous and is the reason why the youtuber was able to earn money online.

And when I consider myself a supporter of a company then why do I whine when I generate a steady flow of income for that said company? I should be happy to be of use but instead I whine... The whiners are no real fans at all.

Also I cant see people complaining about youtube getting some of the revenue so why do they whine when the other actual reason (the first one being youtube) for them being famous (gamemaker) also wants a fair share of the revenue?

I mean how dare youtube wants some of the revenue when youtube just became famous because people uploaded videos!!!!!  People supported youtube Its unbelievable! Call the media youtube wants money they deserve!!!

Fact is people feel entitled to money they are not entitled to get. They got used to it and now something changes and they start whining.

and btw that I am the first gamer that you met who thinks this way is quite sad actually... probably because most "gamers" today are just mainstreamers doing what all the others do whining when everyone whines and hating when everyone hates people without own opinions.

TBH youtubers should only get money if a person watches 100% of the video. Getting money because people are forced to watch a commercial just to find out the content is shit and leave is FAIL. Not viewer count should result in revenue but actual viewers that watch the content for at least a minute.

So since this is way to off topic  lets PM each other or whatever  in case you want to discuss this topic further    I wont discuss this here anymore.  Thanks for your understanding :)
