Are you serious.

For you who wasn't involved the part you deem important was the part I admitted (seriously how many more times) I misread but for me who was involved it was him saying i called him a biased troll for not saying gt in a thread. Bit of an oversimplification.
It was for more than that and even that wasn't to accurate.
He claimed he meant forza and gt but didn't say that and didn't imply that anywhere.
That was backtracking or a blatant lie.

Seeing as he was so kind to send out personal messages I'll follow suit

He called me an idiot and the mods didn't do anything to him. I made an account to complain. I can respond though. And seriously go look at slowmos comment. He is a fucking idiot. And what you are doing is cherry picking. Which you were so adamantly against. I show you 70 comments and you show me.... 1 questionable one. Which was the unrealistic damage... which it was.
You get shown a comment you made by posters on here then claim it's out of context.
Either you are right or you need to learn how to get the point in your head across accurately onto paper so to speak.

Or maybe you just don't see when you're wrong but you do see when you're wrong in other people.

Also you are incredibly rude and self-righteous.

You call people fucking this and that.
don't pretend you're being picked on. Being called an idiot is nothing to what you call people.

This is a crash test done at 40MPH... Look at the demo. Tell me if the car looks slightly as bad as this car. Keep in mind the car in the video was going 60mph. No, that wasn't spreading. FUD. It was stating facts. Just cause the 360 fans didn't very much like it. And I will openly admit I said that to get on some of their nerves. Just because of all the "GT5 damage isn't realistic" that was going on at the time. But still you can't tell me that was realistic.
You're taking the word 'realistic' and taking it out of context. Something you disagree with apparantly.

There are saying it's the most realistic racing sim ever but you see that as 100% just like the real world.

You're being pedantic and you know it. It's cosmetic so it would look silly if it had the entire front flat as a pancake yet it still drove normally. If you take it of cosmetic it does crumple more realistically so you can be out of the race on the first corner just like Forza 2. I don't see you critising GT:5 for its piss poor attempt. Wonder why? By twisting what the devs say, cherrypicking if you will, and then looking for any unrealistic (we know how realism means so much to you) flaw you are spreading fud.

The game never said this game=real world. They said it's as close as you can get which is correct, or will be when it's released, hence the word SIM.

Simulator not real life experiance. Learn what that means in racing games. GT has been calling itself

THE REAL DRIVING SIMULATOR

Lets look at that through your eyes shall we.

Real driving? So I get into a real car and drive? No?

I have to hold a joypad and sit in front of a console and watch a TV? That's not real driving?
See how pedantic it is?
Now if I was to go round saying it's not real racing because where's the car? Do I have to take it to the local patrol station to fill it up and how much will it cost me? I would be spreading lies. Fud.

So do you pick apart GT:5 with the same vigor?
No wonder why?
Are you kidding? My point was that both GT5 and F3 aren't realistic. I don't see your point. Go look at the recent GT5 threads and you will see the same people in that thread not saying anything are the same people who shout "GT5 ISNT REALISTIC!"
No you just said Forza. If that's your point the you have to say that. You have to include GT in the comment. You have a rep as one of the biggest Sony fanboys here so why would you become pragmatic all of a sudden? Now this is your bias showing itself yet again.

And if we are talking about damage the GT is poor and Forza is better. Even if they ported over Forza 2 damage it would be better. PD really need to work on it but you being a big player has played Forza 2 to death and seen what the Damage is like.

Didn't think so.
Are you a fucking idiot? It was a forza thread. People who bring GT up in those get banned. People who bring Forza up in GT get banned. Why would I say GT? Shut the fuck up.
See, you was banned for your name calling and there you continue with it.
"Are you kidding? My point was that both GT5 and F3 aren't realistic."
If that was your point then you should have said that. You only said it about Forza therefore you only meant Forza.
If you know mentioning GT would get you banned but you was trying to make a comment about both games then either face the ban or say nothing.

You commented on a Forza video talking about what you seen in that video. You was being very specific. GT never came into it and you never intended it to. This was an attack on Forza plain and simple. I don't remember seeing any video in that thread at that point of a car in GT slamming into the wall at 70 so you could only have been talking about Forza. The topic of the thread and the topic at hand. Stop trying to spin it.

Bias plain and simple.
no not biased. I showed you an example of someone bringing up forza in a gt thread and there are more of them. I however wont be able to find them because they are probablly off their punishment. I stuck to the thread topic. nothing biased. Just fanboys jumping to conclusion. One even apologizes for that later in the thread. Proof it wasn't bias? i think so
And there are more examples of people bringing up GT in Forza (as well as any other driving game) it swings both ways but hovers with the GT crowd doing it more
Exactly, so why should I bring GT up like you are suggesting? So I could get banned? Face it, I stick to Sony threads. I don't spread FUD around. You are the biased one here. That's why you are so quick to label me. Just because I show favoritism to a console the second I say anything about the other I'm a troll? No.
Now everyone can make up their own mind.
Why bring GT and forza into it when we was talking about why he was banned?
If he meant something why didn't he say it?
Why doesn't he say it about other games he was defending?
He admitted he said it to cause trouble?
If he sticks to Sony threads then why is he in this one?

"In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional or disciplinary response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[2]"

He admits he did it to get on peoples nerves.
And did he send you the other conversation?

He left out the first four quotes, which frankly make you both look pretty bad.  He shows a temper and admits to making sockpuppets (I think) and also to basically posting the original remarks to "get even" with people posting negative info about GT5. 

On the other hand, you show your own bad side, and make some ridiculous attempt to use strict logic to condemn a slogan in mockery of what you presume JEDE3 is doing, but that was actually a really pointless rant of yours, which did not tie in to any specific claim of where JEDE3 acted like that. 

(Not to mention the fact that you practically contradict yourself:  'Your objection that it's not realistic is faulty because you're being insanely strict in your consideration of "realistic"!' vs. 'Your objection that it's not realistic is faulty because it's only unrealistic because it's on cosmetic mode and it would look silly if you were driving something with no front end!')

JEDE3's original post, while made in perhaps a poor spirit, was on topic and not (IIRC) particularly inflammatory in substance, any more than ANY reasonable criticism might be considered "inflammatory" by thin-skinned fans.  As for his tone, it is pretty heated, but then so is yours.  (Actually, you are probably more arrogant/condescending than hotheaded, but your tone is at least as inflammatory as his.) 

To get back to the heart of this little side venture:  you claim that your main argument in the post in which you misread JEDE3's post remained sound, and are apparently claiming that that main argument was that he was trolling.  I think this is a bit rich coming from someone who recently claimed he kept asking for more and more evidence just to see how long the other guy would oblige, and taunted him for how long he did so, but whatever. 

You:  "Looks like you're seeing things your way again. The title to the message telling me why you got banned was "been banned for calling nightsurge a douche" now it's because you mentioned a game in another games thread!?! Do you constantly lose grip on reality?
"You criticised the damage graphics in forza then claimed you meant that both Forza and GT aren't realistic. without mentioning GT so I said if that was the point then you should mention GT as well or it looks like you're trolling."

I'll tell you right now, the first part stands out a lot more than the second (what with all the exclamation points), but let's go with your claim that the second part was actually more important.  I'll admit that JEDE3's sanity does not directly bear on whether he's trolling when he talks about Forza's drawbacks without mentioning GT5's, so the fact that your first argument was obliterated does not invalidate the second. 

No, what invalidates it is the idea that he has to end all criticism of Forza 3's damage simulation with adding something about how GT5's is also bad, even if the thread is only about Forza.  Clearly that's a silly argument and you ought to be ashamed for claiming that he should do so to avoid the appearance of trolling. 

You harp on and on endlessly about the one (admittedly clearly wrong) claim he made that 'his point was that both Forza and GT5' have this problem.  I am willing to believe that he misspoke and meant to say that that's what his POSITION is, not what his POINT was, since he clearly should have known that his own post, which he just wrote, did not actually mention GT5. 

As for your question "Why bring GT and forza into it when we was talking about why he was banned?": 

The answer is simple:  because that was the subject of the one out of 70 comments that you were apparently able to find objectionable content in.  (To support your claim that he went around spreading FUD or whatever.) 

As for "If he meant something why didn't he say it?" (referring, I presume, to what I spoke of three paragraphs up): 

It's not like you're Shakespeare yourself, so it may behoove you to not cast stones from your glass house. 

As for "If he sticks to Sony threads then why is he in this one?": 

I think it is reasonable to not assume he meant absolutely 100% of the time, especially since he was responding to the accusation/implication (I forget which) that he went around the MS forums a lot spreading FUD.  1 thread out of a dozen spent in MS-land is not supportive of that.

You have to realize something here though. I've been stalked by Lord and Nightsurge before this. If anything it shows that they have been annoying as hell.



Wow. This thread is going strong.

Some private parking lots have charges to park in them, some don't. Go somewhere else, or pay for a nice convenient offering.

Dude...Let it go...We know how you feel about XBL and Xbox 360....No one doubts how you feel about the Console and it's service...



 



Are you sure you're not exaggerating when you say "stalked"? He seems like the type that patrols "his" region of the forums and latches on like a bulldog to any enemies that dare enter -- a status you've obviously achieved.

Hmm, these debates can be fun but I don't want to do them every time I wander in to the MS forums! I hope I'm not added to his list!

Sent you the message about it. He came into a few threads aggressively trying to call me out and spin my words.



Normally I prefer to put everything out in the open but considering your PM would probably start yet another tangential argument it's probably for the best.

Wow this thread is still going on?

Mostly thanks to Flashheart and JEDE's little argument.

Seriously, guys, I know the article sucks, but that's no reason to derail the thread like this. If you must derail a thread, do it with funny pictures and maybe Hitler jokes.


I just want the guy to admit he talked out of his ass. It all started because he said I was wrong... but then goes on and says the same exact thing I did. Then claims that if it were a Ps3 fan I would take their word as gospel. Then he claims I spread FUD about the 360 and can only come up with one questionable quote which is the Forza 3 one. Then claims I should have brought GT5 in the thread if I think it doesn't have realistic damge too.

All while not being able to support his claims. He wasn't able to provide a link where I used speculation as fact. He wasn't able to provide a link of FUD. He was just able to provide links with people whining about my posts. Like slowmo. He complained that everyone was whining and immature then I brought up the fact that making babie noises wasnt mature... Slowmos response "Your a ps3 fanboy" and this somehow is proof I spread 360 FUD.

but you do >_>


My post history contradicts your statement. And you were even the one to apologize after you realized you were quick to jump to conclusions. For that I commend you.

If that helps you sleep better at night then whatever.

That was once because I am man enough to know when i'm wrong.  I've never seen you apologize before, not because your always right (far from it infact), but because you never admit your wrong.

LOL... yeah okay. Don't make me own you like I did Lord Flashheart. out of my last 70 posts (and I could have kept going) He couldn't point out on "FUD 360" quote... Only questionable quote he had to show was I didn't think Forza's damage was realistic. I have a proposition for you. Instead of always seeing the posters name and jumping to conclusions take a breath. You guys are on a witch hunt.
