teeqoz thought it would be a funny/cute idea to try to humiliate me with sony propaganda in my signature -_-

 

Ha!

 

OT: I think this is a weird concept giving money to a company just to support them. Of course, having a brand you like is all good but buying stuff from said brand just to give away money is...odd.

 

Happy it makes you happy tho

thank you ^_^

most people on VGC love to judge the shit out of everything i write.

I understand. I go to Wal-Marts and retail stores in my area and tell people to buy the Xbox One version of games instead of the PS4 version. They usually call me a ******, but that won't deter me from continuing my pursuit.

 


Are you being serious? Can't tell if what I'm reading is due to sarcasm or a neurological impairment.

Maybe you should start by trying to convince them to buy the system! Might have more success :D

Oh shit, didn't think of that one  

Well looks like I'll be busy today, I'll be back in 6 hours with my results.  



If you don't come back... we'll assume the worst! We know those Playstation fans can be violent for the brand they love.

Jez man, coming out of secondary (Irish High School) most of the people my age were at least all Pokemon masters.

 

I don't like Pokemon, so maybe that explains it.

Really? Never entered a team of 6 mon into the hall of fame over the years? I'm less a fan of what Pokemon has become with the newer games, but the old Gameboy titles are some of gamings finest moments to me.

I feel for you having missed out on playing them if you haven't.

I didn't have a console or a handheld until I was... well, older. The very first thing I could play with was a Nintendo 64 emulator on PC, and that was my only source of gaming (aside from PC games like Monkey Island 3) for some years.

Maybe I grew up hating Pokemon for making all kids go running wildly during break time just to do that crappy "gift" thing where you held your gameboy close to the other kid and you'll give him a random item from your inventory.

Mystery Gift! Damn fancy kids with Game Boy Colors! I'd hate on them a bit too, I had a gameboy pocket, monochromey goodness.

ng in Gamestop, to go into work actively trying to warp the customers of the shop to become pawns in the console war going on inside the OPs head, worries me if any of the employees of the shops I would go into are secretly having their own private power trip regarding the games they sell on a daily basis.

Worrying.

i wasnt damaging others, i was giving them the choice. more often than not, they would go along with what i was saying just because of the way i was spinning it. if they didnt go along with it, then oh well, id sell them their game that they brought up and thats the end of it. i just like making sure nintendo gets as much money and profit as possible. its fun.

That's the very definition of damaging others... you were going out of your way to try and push the customers to your decision. And even playing against the interests of the company you worked for.

im still not convinced that its actually damaging people. im giving them the option and theyre the ones making the decision on what they feel is right for them. lol. and it didnt play against the interest of the company i worked for. GS benefits from used sales and i pushed a ton of used sales. in fact, i was probably better at it because i had an actual reason to push used sales: to make sure nintendo gets more profit than the competition.

Damaging others =/= customer. When it was nintendo you tried to push new games and lower GS margins, and you also seen to be sugesting people to buying more nintendo stuff than other brands. So you didn't had the best interest of your customers or boss in mind, just your loyality to a brand.

there has been a big change. how many sony hate threads have you seen from me? lol. remember when you used to guess who the thread creator was before entering the thread? see, thats different. and i actually am playing by the rules now. theres a lot thats different. 

I can actually call your threads before clicking now as well xP

Yeah, the core concept of the threads changed, but the aim is still the same, the very same you were pulling in the example, trying to elevate Nintendo and dimish the others.

The worse is that this gamestop thing was in your introduction/apologize thread, and yet it's here to support the damege point, you were not really sorry as I pointed out in that thread as well, it was an act, and that's what make me sad. You can't change yourself, you are like that, it's not enough to love/like something, you have to hate the others to feel what just your "love" should be doing by itself.

I wanted to believe in you even as I knew it would be like this, specially because of yout cute cat picture, you should be a good person because of it xP

I can say it's way better now than it was in the past, that's for sure, but it's still sad it has to have that sparkle and lack of good will.

I don't want to start avoiding your threads on purpose, can't you really keep it up just around your love for Nintendo? That's a nice thing and should be enough, there is a lot of Nintendo lovers here and you would really like to spend your time sharing your love with them, your threads would receive enough responses and be able to generate a lot of good conversations and that would be the sort of threads I would like to pass by and see it was made by you.

but BraLoD, i wasn't apologizing for the GS thing or any act that i comitted as angrypoolman for that matter. i was talking about how i was as rubberwhistlehistle. i made a lot of enemies with that account and still feel very regretful for how aggressive of a user i was. that isnt how i want to be at all. 

haha, that cat picture by the way is, in fact, my cat. i took that picture right when i made my original angrypoolman account. it was so adorable that i just had to use it. and it just looks like a troll cat, which pretty accurately represented my original account. i used to share videos of my cat on VGC. so yeah, trust in the cat.

s nintendo you tried to push new games and lower GS margins, and you also seen to be sugesting people to buying more nintendo stuff than other brands. So you didn't had the best interest of your customers or boss in mind, just your loyality to a brand.

but what i was doing serves both purposes. it makes nintendo money and makes gamestop money. i was happy to do it.
