I’ve told the mod team to take the gloves off as it concerns console warring, alts, etc. so that we can improve the quality of discourse and get back on track. They’re doing a great job of cleaning things up.

I know this is going to sound like conspiracy nonsense, but from my own experience and observations, Sony fanboys seem to get away with far more than others.

I pride myself on being able to poke fun at all sides (I have no stock in either), but I only ever get in trouble when I poke fun at Sony stuff. And without naming names, there are some Sony nutters on here who appear to be invincible to moderation.

I'm not saying all mods are bias, but I suspect you may have a fanboy in your ranks.


TLDR:

 

[DeepEnigma]

Why are people getting upset to begin with over inanimate objects?

Nut up, bitches.

TLDR:

Stop with the false narrative, please.

Mods are targeting stupid drive-by posts as well which instigate nothing but console warring as well, not just fanboyism.

Half of the posts on this forum are drive-by posts.

This makes it easier to spot patterns in the ones that get removed and the ones that don't.

I have been through this many, many times.

We do NOT see every post, nor do we canvas every damn fanatical regression thread on gaming side.

We mainly go off of reports, and actions are taken based on reports. We remove and warn FAR MORE Sony fan drivebys in comparison naturally, since there are more PlayStation owners in general. You see something that you feel requires an action, then report them.

Complaining about things that one fails to report on, is just more idle noise for the sake of. The "patterns" you claim to see, are REPORTING patterns, not "moderation bias".

I guess I am partially to blame, since I don't use the report button (I don't like to be that kind of person, if you know what I mean).

Thanks for responding anyway............. wait............... *Sees Sony themed avatar*

Anyway, ignore my original post, I was just being super autistic this morning. It makes me paranoid.

I think the report button is racist

I used to feel that way too, but no more. The Mods can't be everywhere and see everything, especially on a forum this busy. If they don't know about an issue, they can't do anything about it.

Nut up, bitches.

Some people just love to rage against The Machine, or whatever.

 

[nush]

If you don't win hearts and minds before the launch someone could end up buying a console that just gets Wii U levels of support!

 

[MasterCornholio]

Which is why we have a report button.



It's also our duty to help out the mods if we want to maintain civilized discussions here.

TLDR:

Wrong you can't ever have an opinion on ANY of these companies before people call you a hater even when you own literally every console. Don't blame this on mods people are just extreme fanboys and are unwilling to admit it.

Unironically based.

Nah, he could have chosen almost any other sentence and not got banned. At that point it wasn’t even trying to be funny. (PS, I didn’t report him and just looked up his ban post now)

I’m pretty sure the guy dressed up in the neon dildo armor isn’t worried about being called a faggot on the internet

I’m sure he revels in it, but it doesn’t change the rules here.

If he came in and announced himself as such beforehand and everyone called him that after, it would be fair game.

otherwise it just looks like hate speech.

How is dressing up in neon dildo armor not announcing yourself as a faggot?

 

[Elektro Demon]

I think that isn't the problem. Generally those words are problematic as far as I understand.

 

[Scopa]

I thought he posted a pic with his gf?

 

[Kagey K]

Yeah, no....

I don’t know enough about the subject to continue this.

I don‘t know where the line is on gay, homo, fag. Different people prefer different words and for some that F word is a line too far.

So I’m going to bow out of this discussion.

 

[haxan7]

I was talking about the guy in the dildo armor

Sorry, I haven’t read the thread you’re referring to. I thought you meant Macapala.

Ummm.....he's coming back on Wednesday lol

Pretty sure Macaca is gay. Civil War Kylo Ren lookin ass

Elektro Demon advised him in topic to change that post, and I also DM'd him to change it to the acceptable farngoth. He ignored both of us, everything is on him after his bros looked out for him.

 

[Jooxed]

EviLore Mod of War I noticed we have a couple perma banned folks or Reee's still being advertised on our twitch stream page such as SoulUnison currently. Unsure if you want to keep it there or not.

 

[Mista]

CJY HAHAHAHAHA SERVES YOU RIGHT

Not less than a week ago you were warned about the low effort anatagonistic console war posts. Go hate lick a picture of Phil Spencer. Develop a taste for him. Mmmmmmmm

Who’s the fucking legend with this ban message

 

[Sandyman]

Imagine using the report button.

 

[GHG]

So it looks like Xbox GAF is taking over by weaponising the report button. CJY got banned, SonyGAF's numbers are dwindling. He even built a hype-train and everything.

Spoiler

I don't think I've ever seen a more deserving ban, he was having a full on unprovoked meltdown

He's been in meltdown mode since the spec reveals lol. It was sad to watch. Hopefully some time away gives him some perspective, but I doubt it.

Putting all those avatars on a train only for the event to be underwhelming probably broke him

I’m glad the low level console warriors are dealt with. It’s so tiring to read their bullshit.
