Forums - Nintendo - I finally "played" Wii Fit for more than just a few minutes.

You've been catching up on some Wii Fit, but you haven't logged onto Xbox Live in about 90 days? That's it, Rocketpig. Hand in your balls. You're no longer a gamer.

I haven't hooked up my Xbox for online use since I moved. There's nothing I really want to play online so I haven't bothered.

When I get settled in again, I'll set everything up and get it online. I will definitely be online by the time L4D and Gears 2 release.

I haven't logged on in a couple days 'cuz I need an adapter, but the horribly overpriced Wi-Fi that Microsoft offers ain't doing it for me. Someone posted a good alternative in the Achievements thread that I might go with. And I might rent Gears of War, see if it's good, and if I like it, I'll opt for the sequel. It's always interesting to hear what other Vgchartz members sound like. Oh, and aren't you interested in XBL games like Braid and Castle Crashers? Both look really fun.

OH the doublestandards. You ban me for using vagina in a sentence after someone directly attacks me, but you get to tell someone to "hand in their balls" because they're not logging into xb live and *gasp* actually expanding their knowledge of games.

 

So because someone attacked you, that makes it okay? The difference between our two comments is that I know Rocketpig well, and he knows I'm joking, whereas your comment was obviously aggressive (just like the one you made here). And his thread title pretty much means that he's played it before and is cracking it open again, which throws your "expansion" argument out the window. But thanks for bringing up something completely unrelated, it gives me a reason to boost my post count.

 

Let me know how that post count works for scoring with the ladies there, chief.

My comment in that other thread was just par on level with the one thrown at me, yet it was okay for them without them being banned or whatnot. I'm just throwing the challenge flag on your moderating calls, as you refused to respond to me in private messages on that issue. You can't just walk around banning people without consequence to your action. We both know a certain ex-mod who had his power taken away for similar bad mod calls.

 

You know what? I don't care, and Rocketpig has shown that he doesn't care. You actually think that I'll be de-modded because of a minor double standard that you're horrendously exaggerating? Somehow I don't see that happening. But nice job on the personal attack, it's really a smart thing to do when talking to a moderator.

 

Personal attack? Not quite at all. Im talking about the job at hand, not you as a person. If I wanted to personally attack you, I'd be talking about your faith, upbringing, etc. Discern what the difference from conversation and "attack" is, and you won't have issues like this one on your plate.

It really is a shame what this site is becoming. As a person within the industy, I value the information that ioi provides.

So you're saying that the first line of your post wasn't a personal attack completely unrelated to the conversation at hand? Well, I think it was!

And what's a shame? The numbers are updated like always, and if I'm somehow part of the group of people that are ruining the site for you, then you're welcome to leave. It's certainly annoying how this thread has become derailed.

Some of the strength exercises at high reps are definitely exercise worthy. All the push ups and other stuff add up.

Imagine two people on the internet with varying thoughts on a topic, how unnatural. My response was specifically related to your job and handling of an issue within the site. I did try to get a clarification regarding the incident from you privately, but you chose to ignore the request for whatever reason. If you would like to discuss this further in private, then that is acceptable - or should we rather flesh it out here and nosedive this otherwise dead thread further into the ground?
