Why is a "game journalist" viral marketing for Nintendo for free?

Same reason why people post "official threads" and load them full to the brim with pictures and enough information to write a short story.

Oh come on. I was following that account since the start, and it was clear it wasn't Nintendo's work, and I don't see any harm done. The fact that Wii Will Rock U = the creator of the account is amusing though :lol reading through that thread is fascinating now.

Doesn't matter as I'm sure many people can attest to the same thing. The problem here was you ousted yourself and had the balls to leave enough trails of your own identity for this to occur, let alone step into this thread which was bound to be full of criticism and face the music head-on.

The sad truth is that when people read this thread and put the pieces together they're going to feel angry or embarrassed and thus take their emotions out in this thread. Yet for some reason they are forgetting the fact that they are gamers too; they share a love for the same hobby that you are so interested in and I'm sure at some stage of their gaming life they let their passion for a game/s to hit fever pitch.. which is, I'm sure, why this occurred in the first place.

I'm indifferent to the viral marketing shindig because, as much as I love Layton, I'm not going to follow something that a corporation or individual not tied to that company has propped up to boost interest.

I don't want this mistake to cost me my internet love.

You'll probably cop a mockery of a tag but I wouldn't expect any harsh punishment. Those calling for your head are just backseat modding which is also a bannable offence.

Reading through that old thread now makes me dislike him rather intensely

Ever since an unnecessary snarky two word response to a thread I made without contributing anything of value to the conversation I started to notice a pattern with this guy. He's full of himself, and frequently boasts his own endeavors while being a condescending asshat to others without reason. I don't respect posters who are offhandedly dismissive without backing up their shit talking. This Layton thing only reinforces my opinion of him.

Thank you so much for calming my mind. I don't think people get how much I care for GAF.

To be honest, I didn't think it would get to GAF so fast. I was hoping to have the page deleted before it trailed here.

I can't believe I'm actually responding in this thread. I love you all too much to not give you an answer.

I've a feeling you were disappointed GAF didn't find it as quickly as you hoped so introduced it yourself. Shameful.

If I was you i'd quit talking about getting banned. You pulled a lame prank( and told people how cool the person doing it is) besides that I don't think you did anything bannable. I'm no mod though so who knows for sure.

You couldn't of chosen a worse avatar to represent yourself :lol

I think it's safe to say you'll be spared a banning for at least pimping a GAF-approved sleeper title.
