You'll be lucky if the mods don't correct you with a suspension.
So would you, are you trying to instigate a flame war?
Heresy wasn't wrong - rude or not. John trash talked a whole genre and the people who liked said genre, not to mention the developers. Some people are tired of baseless arguments against genres they like and would like to defend their choice of entertainment.
Also - John was as rude as his opponent, if not even ruder. In fact John insulted YOU. Get off your high horse.
1.) Old thread is old, old post is old.
2.) How the HELL would what I said instigate a flame war? Seriously, that makes no sense at all
3.) Heresy attacked him completely unprovoked and I am more inclined to condemn the person who is an asshole out of nowhere and starts a fight than the person who was right to be angry, but took it too far.
4.) John did not insult me anywhere
5.) I like shooters, but John didn't attack anyone personally
Lastly, whether Heresy is wrong or not is irrelevant (he was probably right) saying things like this:
Finally, apologize to anyone who might have actually had their opinion changed by reading your post. Inform them that you are entirely wrong you apologize for misleading them, even as poorly as you did.
Is about as smug, arrogant, and insulting as you can get, I don't tolerate that crap whether it's directed at me or not, I can tell you're new here, so let me help you get something straight.
1.) Mods might take action if you groundlessly initiate personal attacks against other members
2.) Mods are not going to take action (for example, against my post) for defending people who have been attacked, and doing so without any sort of insult or vulgarity in any way.
I don't know who you are, but you could probably be contributing valuable opinions to relevant topics rather than scanning four month old arguments between strangers.
Before you try to tell me you're not new based on join date, let me tell you that no matter when you joined, you only have 200 posts worth of experience on these forums, I think it's idiotic to judge opinions based on post count, and I'm not doing this here, my numbered reasons above are why I disagree with your point, I'm only using the post count as a reason to offer you advice above.
Anyway, you probably think I'm a total dick right now, but that's not my intention, I'm just really sick of people telling me off for defending those who are groundlessly attacked, especially when I'm not rude doing it.
Damn, people think ANYTHING will start a flamewar nowadays.....
