You didn't reply to any of my points though.

He just asked you not to read them if you don't like them, he never asked you to blind yourself or censor yourself. You're blowing his post out of proportion. This isn't about thread titles you couldn't bear look at due to hateful words, so if there's a topic you don't like, asking you to skip it is not asking you to censor yourself but to make room for other types of interests.
'Dont like it - Don't read it' reads pretty censorship minded to me. I dont invest in topics because 'i like them or dont like them'
Extended: "Don't like this country, don't live in it" is what we say to people. But pointing out flaws in a country or system can improve that country or system for everyone who resides in that country is uses/is a part of that system. I took offence at that because suggesting anyone solely reads or views something for a matter of like-ness is ridiculous, and that suggestion to censor yourself to information you do not like breeds privilege.
We have much more information than a name for NX. We have a few investors briefings with much information that can help us understand the nature of NX. Given that you didn't know that, how could you judge the validity of those threads by saying that all we have is a name?
'as it stands NX is nothing more than a name. Nothing more. Yeah you'll get fake articles with 'specs leak' by those shit websites trying to clickbait on n4g and alike, but that is why people prefer it to be relegated to 1 thread rather than clutter up their screen....NX predictions or alike are the same topic, a prediction.'
Extended: Investor meetings where somebody has said the word nx usually in context of something else. We know NX will be a thing when it is released, likely a console, but that's about it. It's fine to predict, but if you want to predict based off information that is completely unsubstantiated, then let it sit in a thread along with others so those people can enjoy theres and each others.
Last thing is that I get the impression you don't like threads about the NX, and so you don't like when people talk about it so much because it isn't interesting to you.
'And I do enjoy about reading about NX, but as it stands NX is nothing more than a name.'
I think I, and many others recently, are over fatigued with the over abundance of threads on the exact same topic - 'a baseless prediction of what NX will be'. If so many predictions are pushing more relevant stories or other opinions/posts/predictions down and the majority do not respond to them anymore, then the destabilisation of such topic should be...destabilised i guess. There weren't this many topics with the xbox durango leak. No one's stopping anyone making predictions here, vgc are just asking you to discuss one topic in one thread. Capiche
