I cant go into any thread without seeing anti IGN post. Its annoying and pointless.

 

seriously, can site bashing be against the rules?

I wouldn't be surprsied if something like this was around the corner.

As it is you already can't say anything bad about any console without getting banned for trolling. 

You're welcome to your opinions as long as you don't share them.

We don't ban people for any of that, but your attitude certainly makes me wish we had some forum rules to get rid of you...

Ouch. Isn't that a personal attack to Words of Wisdom? Isn't that like, a violation of the rules? Or don't they apply on admins?

I don't like him. I don't like you either. I very much hate you, in fact, but that's not a personal attack. I in no way insulted you or WoW. I simply dislike you as people. As I'm sure you do me (I believe you told me that once a year or so ago), which is cool with me.

Shouldn't this be discussed, idk, using the PM system? Its not against forum rules, as we both know, but there could some questions raised of the professionality of our admins. I'm not one that should be pointing this out, due to me ripping apart clan members and users on my old websites, but VGC is or very well should be a more professional place then a clan website or an anime download website so we should all act a bit more accordingly.

This also goes for our users. VGChartz is a website that dedicated to bringing professional retail tracking to the game industry and our community as a whole should also act accordingly. This is not the rink-a-dink, random little crap video game forums or webpages thrown together by a group of nerds in their grandmother's basement. Its ok to be comical, funny, sarcastic at times. Its ok to be argumentative to a point, but you must state your facts or atleast to us as to where you base your opinions from.

You people need to take in your surroundings and raise the bar of the professionality of not just yourselfs, but our amazing community as a whole.

 

 

Now I do suggest that this thread be locked due to this being in the incorrect section. This thread is better suited for either gaming or off-topic.

No, in fact, the forums do not have to be a professional place to discuss game sales. VGC is a website for all sorts of discussions, and I intend to keep it that way. There is a time and a place for professional sales discussion, but this topic is not one such place. You would also do better to not lecture your boss on being professional. That will not end well for you, especially when you're very much depending on me for other things you desire from this website in the near future.

I'm sure you can find a post somehwere on here from some disgruntled user which says

"IGN is bias for the PS3" or
"IGN is bias for the 360" or
"IGN is bias for the Wii"

it will sometimes feel biased unless it agrees with every thought you ever have....

Well IGN did have a whole podcast consisting entirely of Wii bashing...

 

Where can I find that podcast?

http://wii.ign.com/articles/105/1055198p1.html

Malmstrom made a summary which seems pretty accurate:

http://seanmalstrom.wordpress.com/2009/12/15/ign-continues-to-meltdown/

 

I'd rather listen to that myself than read what that clown thinks the podcast said.

Good luck. I can't remember how many times I facepalmed while listening to it.

The bashing picks up pace as the show goes along, in the beginning it's quite mild.

 

Well that is way too long to listen but I did not notice any wii bashing there. Some facts, some opinions...

Oh wow, I remember why we hated eachother again. You think people should treat you like God, and I kind of despise people with a God complex. Thanks for clearing that up!

I think I know what will happen next.



IGN is full of hate since the reviewers' themselves are fanboys.
Exclusives are CONFIRMED to have REALLY high scores.
NO JOKE.

"I didn't listen to it, but I heard no bashing". Really now?

*shrug* glad we worked that out. Honestly I really don't care what you think of me. I do my job on the site very well, which is to watch over the moderators and run the reviews. I don't really care if you, as a random forum member, like me or not. I do not wish to be talked down to by staff under me however, and of course respond to that. FYI I dislike you for very similar reasons. You seem to think you are actually important, and everything on the site revolves around you. Seems like a good excuse to run your IP Address, actually.

IGN (like FOX news) is for entertainment purposes not informative ones.

IGN is owned by FOX.

 

My mind has now officially been blown. Thank you kind sir!

I don't think that at all. I just believe everyone here should be able to talk to eachother as human beings, rather than worshipping our moderators and admins.

I respect all staf on this site for the work they're doing. I think you and your colleage's have created and are creating a wonderful site. But that doesn't mean we normal members shouldn't be able to critizise you (and both ssj12 and me have not said any foul word, I believe).

And what does "running your IP address" mean? Do you think I'm an alt account or something?

You did indeed create an alt account, though just for one post so I only warned you.
