Well I didn't felt alluded by what he said anyways.

That doesn't surprise me, because it's a common trait among... problematic people. Look at Lawlight's post for another example. In his opinion, he provides information and perspective with his posts about Nintendo.

Is there some special reason for this? Because I would suggest to keep it for yourself, not in the mood. Also your mod history suggest you may not be the best one to speak about problematic folks.

"Your console really does sucks" is the most voted option

Another proof that gaming community is infected with shitty arrogant people.

You really see things in a very narrow minded way, do you...

Good thing Rol is already adressing the matter.

Well I do admit I was maybe looking for the conclusion i wanted it the first time I look it, I'm human after all, but yeah Rol's theory about the most hilarious choice makes sense too.

Yes, there is. I may not have posted much outside of the NFL thread lately, but I have seen you get banned at least twice since I tried to offer you as a sacrificial lamb to the mod team, meaning that there has been no improvement whatsoever since then. It actually looks like it has gotten worse. But it's not like I expected good results, because it was obvious that a habitual offender needs constant attention. Still, I hoped for at least a tiny bit of improvement.

I'm borderline, meaning some days I have a horrible mood and feel things from a more tense, impulsive and dramatic perspective, and that's all my fault but if you actually look closer, you would realize those "offenses" are usually concentrated on the same day while the rest of days are a pretty different story. Having you here only to say me how much I'm getting worse and how much of an attention whore I am by doing nothing more than a superficial analysis ("you have been banned twice") is not helping.

Everyone here has their own baggage...

But everyone is responsible for themselves as well. You know how you are. Try to refrain yourself from posting when you're feeling like shit. I know the impulsivity gets the better of you when that happens, but you can't expect people here to react with pity, or call it empathy, when you overreact.

Console sales wars are bitter rivalries between competing companies in a long battle for the bragging rights of winning a console sales war. Your system outsells the rivals system is priceless.

Don't pay any attention, you do fly off the handle quickly sometimes when in a bad mood, but equally you readily admit to overreacting and when you've calmed down you're perfectly reasonable and easy to talk to.

You're definitely not an "attention whore" and while I don't agree with all of your opinions, I respect you as a user on this site and certainly wouldn't say you are "problematic."

Regardless you don't deserve to be harrassed like you seemingly are being now.

True, that's why I said is all my fault, but I feel like some people misunderstand me too much because of that, which is normal because it gives a weird image for those that have a more stable mood and that's why I should detect those moments/days and stay away from here, and i do it but everytime I fail it makes too much noise.

That's not helping, Barkley. When a user gets banned for (paraphrased) "you've been trolling again, here's a dozen of links to your posts; any one of them would have been enough for another moderation, but look at the pile we've got here", then there is definitely a problem and it needs to be faced head-on.

You're not a moderator, quit the holier-than-thou attitude and stop acting like you have some position of authority. It's not your place to pass judgement or to highlight "problematic users". This isn't your holy crusade.

Regardless I'm not going to have a discussion with you, Goodnightmoon is a fine user. As a non-moderator any further analysis is irrelevant. Especially publically.

What is a circle-jerk?

Basically when a group of like minded individuals get together and jerk each other off about how great everything is--

 

Guy one: The Ouya has great apps.

 

Guy two: and you can you PlayStation controllers!

 

Guy three: best console ever. Every other console sucks!

 

Guy one: There's absolutely no down side to owning one!

 

Guy three: Take off your pants. I want you inside of me.

 

Me: Actually, the Ouya kinda sucks

 

Guy One, Two, and Three: His opinion differs! GET HIM!

But if something is objectively good and universally loved... is it still a circle jerk to talk about it? hmmmmmm
