I'm kind of agree with SHMUPGurus, *most* of those kind of comment are from PS3 fanboys (most not all), i've seen many of these comments from them on the Microsoft forum i even said on one of my posts that i love the fact that if a thread has X360 (or Microsoft) it was sure that the Sony boys would appear :P.
About the sarcasm thing, althought both situations were very similar, there were differences, i mean Squilliam stated that he was kidding (even if it doesn't take it back) while DMJ didn't and sounded more serious, personally i think that both should've got a warning but i don't think that DMJ deserved to be banned (even if because of his post others started to say similar things)
