Ahhh it all makes sense now. I had no idea who this was though I’ve heard of Zoe Quinn and the controversy surrounding her here and there but I’m not so familiar that I’d know her from an image so my comments about the posing, etc, was separate from having knowledge of her, not that it matters lol. Wow....well alright

Yosh’s comments have always been extremely racially charged and highly racist... but at every turn he was given a chance by the mods. But he literally defended segregation, he honestly believes black people should be kept uneducated and tried to make an argument that they thrived during Apartheid.
You have to take a stand somewhere when entertaining those types of comments.

, tagging you since I can't quote your last reply:I don't know the poster, and am not defending any of their posts. I looked at the one linked in the ban page and at didn't look as bad as many other posts which have not resulted in a perm. And my initial reply was just to what I had bolded from your initial post. If you say the poster has a long history or multiple infractions or w/e is the case, I believe you.
I was saying that what is considered 'racist/hate speech' is going to be viewed more harshly depending on whom the target group is, which I think is wrong, but is currently socially acceptable.
Again, I was replying to a comment
DeafTourette
had made that I bolded. Do you disagree with what I said? If so, what?In regards to someone having racist or racially charged comments, would you consider your own history of posting to be 'racially charged'? Where is the line?
And to make it clear that I'm not singling you out, my own posting history could be considered 'racially charged', as I tend to ask that all people be treated with an equal standard regardless of the circumstances of their birth.

Here’s the thing every time someone brings up my post history they can’t find anything ... I’ve had this conversation multiple times and it’s either they don’t reply back or they say they mistook me for someone else.
Yosh was known for his very colourful ideals. He went over the bar for what we would normally consider straight up racist a while ago but we still engaged with him in good faith.

Just to clarify this point here. That user was trolling from their inception, but we gave them chances - but there are certain 'comments' that are made deliberately to stir the pot. They're like the generic troll statements that prove someone is here just to cause trouble. Here are some examples of that users contributions attempting to start fights everywhere. The 9TF is like a meta comment as it pretty much seals the deal that someone is here, not in good faith. These people are not clever:
Bloodborne PC Release Is In The Works – Rumor
30fps (not even locked), constant wrong framepacing resulting in horrible stutter and aliasing all over the place... yes, a PC port would be awesome. Same for me. The framepacing turned me off rather quickly. Would clearly give it a shot on PC though ;-)
Bloodborne PC Release Is In The Works – Rumor
Or you know...stick with me here...maybe people DID play it on PS4 (and got the platinum) but would welcome a better version on PC cause Sony did fuck all to update the game and on PC a lot of those issues would disappear. Spoiler, I am one of those people. I never once mentioned that...
AMD confirms that Big Navi is an entusiast card and that it arrives before Next-gen consoles
Bit in depth for me. Less transistors leads to the lesser power draw, I'm guessing? Yes, and also architectural improvements and clockspeeds play a factor. The 5700 XT looks like it is clocked towards the end of its power curve, so actually the 5700, which is only around 12% slower at 1440p, is...
However, the same is applied when we see users like this as well:
|OT| Xbox Power King Memes
Yes. I will then say that the 2x bump in power PS5 has over PS4 will change nothing, but the 20% XSX has over PS5 means that there will be games on XSX that literally cannot happen on PS.
That was flagged, reply banned and then user was warned as we had a pretty good inkling they would just continue trolling elsewhere which they did. If your 'account' is clean then these are the first steps usually. If you're relatively new and straight into trolling/warring, then you won't get as much leeway (like Thugnificient and Frederic) because you haven't earned that level of goodwill/faith. The above user has been here a couple of years so we will tend to give them a little more room to realise it was too far.
Just to hark back to earlier, youll also notice I did reply to Frederic (who is now also banned) here. Their protestation was based on the fact they were being genuine and just trying to participate asking for a source. It was clear they were not so they were reply banned and warned. They did exactly the same in the next-gen thread and were removed from that and warned again to cut it out. They completely ignored all this which culminated in pathetic posts like these:
RTX 3080 design possibly Leaked
The design for the RTX 3080 looks to have been leaked on chinese forum chiphell https://www.chiphell.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=2226236&page=1&authorid=34649 https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-geforce-rtx-3080-pictured https://wccftech.com/nvidia-rtx-3080-pictured/
“It's time to give fans something that can only be enjoyed on PlayStation 5”
People are trying to make this decision by Microsoft seem like a blunder, and its not. Not all games for the Series X will follow suit, as I'm sure it's a first party decision, where third parties can opt not to. Besides, won't next gen games take 2 years minimum, 4 to 5 years top? I can...
Do they look like someone who is here genuinely? For someone who signed up to talk about XsX they do awful little of it. Except fish for moderation actions and then complain in the xbox thread.
We tend not to comment on individuals, but if these individuals are trying to drive a wedge through the community or lie about how they are being treated then all you need to do is ask in here. We might not get to it right away but can quickly clear up any misconceptions. For example, disingenuous users in the meme thread saying they were reply banned and linking to a post that in fact was not the post they were reply banned for. We see all this but we don't stage an intervention all the time because the boards are about you folks and not us or our personalities. If that means taking a lump or two over time so people feel more secure that moderator's aren't going to storm into every thread, it's a fair enough trade off.

I've given up on reporting the constant trolling, thread shitting and user attacks that is happening on gaming side because they are simply being swept under the rug. No report responses, reply bans, nothing.
Just another day when this,
"Looks nice. But still too weak to compare to SSD"
gets you banned while these gems of console warring, trolling, baiting and general thread shitting,
"Ah trying to get in the mind of MS strategy is as bad as fanboys concerend about ps5 overheating and sustained narrative, "
"Looking in at that Matt weighs in on ps5 thread, it really pains me to see the lengths xbox fan boys are going to, to try and discredit anything positive about the ps5."
"So XSX fans, when doyou think MS will be able to match the graphic fidelity shown below
Any ideas when or how ? Do you think it will ever be matched ?
Can XSX stream stuff available to the GPU to process in milliseconds and fractions of a frame necessary (as explained by Tim Sweeny is not the same as raw SSD speed) ?
Any takers ? "
"They're probably coordinating how they will approach this in their private chat and getting a greenlight from big Phil! "
"I actually preferred Xbox's highly technical reveal... 'it's a monster', 'it eats monsters for breakfast'. hahaha "
"Is below just PR to you ? We have seen it on ps5, its too LATE to debunk it as PR, it happened and we have all seen it.
Can you link us to what XSX can do ?"
Are par for the course, not to mention the constant cries of FUD and secret discord conspiracies, or the amazing post histories of users such as vroadstar.
This would probably be happening a whole lot less if one side of the discussion wasn't almost entirely removed from the spec thread while the other side is merrily trolling it and shitting it up every day.

The difference is that he's capable of having a discussion when facing up against a view that is different to his own rather than crying and scurrying off into the corner, or even worse, getting personal with people.
The misterxmedia/Greenberg style of communication does not foster healthy discussions, people need to realise this rather than feel like they are unfairly treated everywhere they post. If you're an Xbox fan and you've managed to get yourself banned both here and on other Internet forums (or just multiple times here with alt accounts) then maybe, just maybe, it's time to start realising that you are the problem. Be reasonable and honest with your discussion, be open minded, it's not difficult.
Fans of other platforms who have adopted similar posting styles also get banned, and rightly so. Don't complain about getting your fingers burnt while starting fires.

And that excuses them?
And I've been banned from where?
I've shown several posts just from today showing a level of thread shitting and/or trolling that simply wouldn't fly in the other direction. This hasn't only been happening over the last couple of days. It goes back beyond even the base reveal of the two consoles.

I'm not talking about you, I was speaking generally. To be honest I have no idea who you even are
Edit: when I said "he's" I was referring to
Bryank75
. That was in response to you saying he would have been permed had he been an Xbox fan. That was not in reference to you list of shitposts in your previous post. I thought that much would be obvious at least based on what was being quoted.

Thanks for the kind words. I probably deserved to be reported
Well, to be fair..the comment about the Xbox presentation was in response to someone saying that Cerny was lying about the SSD speeds and it was all marketing.
I'm not saying I'm a saint but in that instance, you could see why I would respond to what I saw as hypocrisy. It was not what I was warned for in any case.
I've wanted to join Neogaf for years and I want to add to the community, that means building the Xbox side of the community too and I am more than willing to extend the olive branch.

You do when you do, you don't when you don't, as it is with everyone.
If you deserve to be reported for every single post you make (which is quite literally the case for some people who frequently get banned) then there is an obvious problem and I have no idea why some people are jumping to their defence.
Nobody is perfect but ffs, it's not as black and white as "all Xbox fans get unfairly treated". We need more Xbox fans like

These two...
"They're probably coordinating how they will approach this in their private chat and getting a greenlight from big Phil! "
"I actually preferred Xbox's highly technical reveal... 'it's a monster', 'it eats monsters for breakfast'. hahaha "
But as I said, the guy was saying Cerny was lying about SSD speed.
The first one is in relation to a group of people who were calculating bandwidth per unit of memory.... instead of the unified pool because it gave Xbox an advantage to put that spin on it.... so we were wondering how they were so coordinated.

Well I was making a reference to all fanboys in general. It's just that Meirl is a pretty good example that everyone can agree with especially after the army of alts that he had.
I think everyone shared what they felt they needed to say, and thank you. You can continue in the meta thread if you like so we can get this one back on topic.

I still am against it. People who are arguing from a blind fanboy perspective and taking potshots at others just because they choose to buy another toy than them are not beneficial to any kind of productive discussion. Such a thread would signal that kindergarden behaviour is tolerated here and I am farily certain it would have a spill over effect to other threads as well. Better have the console warriors on the ban page than in a thread that will inevitaibly lead to a loss of brain cells in all mods who try to wade through it to moderate. Take yourself a discord room and yell at each other for buying the wrong console, but behave like proper teens and above on the forums.
