is Sony doing better for the gamers?

I have returned! Mwah ha ha!

Na I guess I've just personally seen PLENTY of purely opinion-based threads locked before, and rightly so.

Since the OP is posting SOMEONE ELSE'S blogged opinion though via a link, it somehow is treated differently. I guess I just personally don't see the distinction. An opinion based thread is an opinion based thread, and typically never makes for a good debate or structured argument.

I see what you're saying, but you're still confusing a poor thread (this thread) with an unacceptable, against the rules thread. This thread already has the ultimate diss going to the OP - a "poor" thread rating.

Us continuing the conversation just keeps it at the top of the heap.

Most of the threads that have been closed recently, have been due to flamebait

This thread, is simply poor - and the only real rule he broke was in posting a huge quote, and not offering any opinion of his own in the OP.

did you buy it used

traded a friend at work mlb the show 08 for it.

I suck, but I'll play. Weather here has taken a massive shit and I'll likely be out of school again, tomorrow.

ya.. i'll try to get on for a bit tonight... i'll post when i do.

Mich, I have to ask - when you put it this way, your first consideration is regarding the quality of the poster, then their intent.. etc.
I might be in danger of #4 here, but, if you are aware of trolls, and this is the first consideration, why are they still allowed here? I mean there are plenty of reasonable posters around, people who prefer either console, and people who speak of neither (or rarely do). Why do we put up with this? Better phrased: why do we suffer these fools? There are a couple posters on this forum, that I just don't understand the rationale of letting them continue on, they are so full of blind fail that anything and everything has to do with why their console is better, or why others are stupid.. it's really unbelievable. It would be really nice if we could rate posters. I can tell you that there would be a number of 5 star great posters in my book, and I think it is obvious to see the type of respect they get. The garbage posters? Take 'em out to the trash. Please. We don't need the crap in here.

thank god you're not a MOD here either.... wheew! weird how everytime i have something about someone in my sig, or on my avatar, i get a pm from someone telling me i have to change it, and can't call out anyone. yet you still get to have my house on yours. hmmmmmmmmm odd indeed.

ps... i wonder who'd you'd ban and rate as 5 star posters...

I stopped reading when I saw this retarded little gem,

Sony does not do the Microsoft thing where they buy the exclusives...

ff13 says its not a retarded comment.

I hate this kinda bullshit. Ima start a blog and start posting topics of my own blog as insider journalism

"Respect gaming blog "Microsoft Owns and Sony sucks the big Cocks" Has just reviled that the ps3 actually sucks and no one likes it"

Thats on the same level of crediablity as this shit.

We need to start handing out ban hammers to blog post. Shits out of hand.

Just rate the thread 1 star, like several of us did. It currently has a shameful 2 stars on the smackdown page, visible for all to see before clicking on this thread

Thank God I'm not either, I wouldn't be able to keep up, or handle all the whining. Actually, I wasn't calling you out on the sig, I just thought it was a nice touch, as I am playing the MAD role thanks to my bet with James. You will also note that I had an Avatar removed that disparaged Sony. Calling you out wasn't my intent, I was asked to change my sig, and I did. We also PM'd about it too (you and I) And in a sense, I was at your house the other night when we did a round of COD4 together (something I haven't done with ANYONE else on this board yet (except OnslaughtX)). So - no, I wasn't calling you out.

About who I'd ban? Well, get me a list of your MAD and SDF and their star ratings. I'd venture a guess that 5 stars are looking most possible (on both teams) for banning. Seriously - PM me, this could be fun!
