Forums - Gaming - 1up slams wii madden.

He's still a very good contributor, just not on all issues lol. I have some great discussions with ckmlb and I would be lonely without someone to debate with on occasion! Seriously, give the guy a break. No one is perfect, and there are certainly many worse offenses committed on the forums (daily) than the occasional sarcastic aside as DKII pointed out. I know you may not always agree with the guy's opinions, but don't explode on him every time he tries to express it.

The point isn't that ckmlb is earning credits by posting in the news and what not, it's that there are far worse users on both sides of the fence who are still tolerated and his comment is not really even close to over the line there. I accept and believe in the 1up Wii bias myself and I'm still sick of hearing it, and I'm sure the PS3/360 fans are only more so.

I realise there are far worse offenders, I don't think that was ever in doubt. The fact is though that all of the, shall we say, less cherished posters on this forum aren't mods. Like it or not it's part of your job to set an example. When handing out warnings and in some cases bans for unaccaptable behaviour it can come across a tad hypocritical if there are mods who's behaviour hasn't exactly been squeaky clean.

Grow up and stop trolling.

Ckmlb come back out. We want to hear what you have to say on this issue. Is this really a hit and run?

But he got 4k+ posts because he would have to repeat the same stuff over and over and over to people. That gets annoying, for him.

But he's happy enough to repeat his sarcy one-liners?? I think if you're tired of the subject matter of a thread you should stay out. Simple.

Anyway I've posted twice now since I said I'd quit so.............

I'm just glad he stopped using the "confirmed" crap.

PSP graphics on Wii confirmed!
Wii Madden Family Play too hardcore for casuals confirmed!

I prefer the "Oh no" route.

I agree. Which is why I haven't even touched the subject on the Nintendo bias on the site.... again....

I'm glad I am not a mod. Then I couldn't be all obnoxious like most of the people on this site. Not that I am that way usually but I just like the option.



 

 

Gamespot gave it 80%, IGN 85%, average score on Gamerankings is 77%. It's receiving the lowest average scores from all the 4 console versions, but if you tell me not utterly bad at all, and that for a EA game *sarcasm*. So the 4.5 is therefore way too exaggerated low if you ask me. Considering the fact it's therefore the "lowest" score of all.

1UP is most likely asking for getting an entire war of disgrace over itself by Nintendo fans this way. Can't say I can really blame them.

If it's too annoying to elaborate on it, then why post it?  But I digress, not really caring to elaborate on it

I still think it's stretching it a lot to complain about sarcasm, much less compare it to trolling. If sarcasm were trolling I would have been banned a long time ago lol. Everyone uses sarcasm, including the other mods. ckmlb was just trying to use it as a way to express his strong opinion.

Also, on him not backing his opinion up yet, give him a bit more time.  He's not been online and he's probably just been doing other stuff.  If he decides not to get into a debate about it, that's his decision, and I'll respect that, but don't assume he has decided not to discuss it yet.
