Microsoft purchased the domain Xbone.com. So, that makes it an official name regardless of what their attentions are.

Skipping someones post just because they use the abbreviation "Xbone" seems like a childish thing to do. Why not read the post first?

I think most people have used multiple abbreviations, unlike PS4 there isnt an obvious abbreviation to use. There's been times I've used Xbone, X1 , XB1 or even the one.

To automatically categorize someone based on how they abbreviate a consumer product is being faaaar to sensitive for something that is so trivial.

It's not about sensitivity or being self centered or lacking a perspective, or any other insult you want to throw out as a moderator.

Through experience I know 99% of the time it's used by those that wanna trash the system in some way, history and experience.

Yeah i agree. Probably a bit harsh on my part. My post was not mean to target anyonr specific but rathet address the behavior. I really do think its absurd to judge someone based on how they abbreviate a product. Xbone seems to be used across the board in my experience and to think that yhe majority of people who use it are purposefully saying it to piss off xbox fans is absurd imo.But yeah was not my intention to insult anyone and certainly not anyone specific. But i can see why u think that. I apologise if u feel personally insulted by my post. I'll raise it with the other mods and see what they say maybr il get fired :p

There is other abbreviations but it would get you banned. PoS4 and Wii Eww is two that youll see on youtube comment section. And just like XBO and Xbone youre adding letters

It's a good thing that I don't read the Youtube comments then .

You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

Seriously YouTube comments are the worst.

Anyways, I stick with XBO cause it's the fastest to type. XB1 takes me a little longer cause I have to take my finger off the shift button when I want to press the 1. I can't afford to spend that extra half of a second. My time is very precious.

Sigs are dumb. And so are you!
