Neogaf Double Standards

Okay. I was over at Neogaf browsing the gaming discussion when I came across something that startled me. It seems that several Neogaf users were banned in a thread that complains about how console gamers are tired of being put down by PC gamers. All the people that were banned minus one homophobe were people that prefererd console gaming as opposed to PC gaming. While I,myself, am a PC gamer, I think that it is unfair for PC gamers to be allowed to be  to belittle console gamers without console gamers being allowed to answer back. If you check all the threads on Neogaf, I'm sure that you will find a double standard. PC fanboys get off scott free while console fanboys face the possibility of being banned. Even the guy that started the thread was banned yet the thread is still open. Why ban the thread starter and let the thread continue?

If you look at the bannings on the thread,or read the thread, you will see the true face of gaf. I counted 11 bans from people criticizing PC gamers yet when you put down console gamers in any form you are given a free pass. double standard?

I do not condone the thread starters message but if you ban him for the thread he started, why let the thread continue? http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=347377

yeah, seriously. It's overrun by fanboys

Not to mention,user activity has been down. Also the fact that a lot of members who register, simply forget to revisit the site. Due to the backward system of registration.

A great forum though.

What the heck? Everyone dissing the PC in any way is getting banned. I had to check it out for myself. Is there only one moderator on GAF? Or are they all PC fanboys? Wow

TOO PAWNED6362d ago

Who cares really? If you don't like it, than don't go there. Just like i don't go to Gt, 1UP, GameSpot forums.

So I don't go to anyplace that provides low-quality news.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing36d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit36d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing36d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9236d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
