Could this forum get any more out of control? I see people asking simple questions or stating their opinions, and they get blasted for it.

The verbal abuse is staggering in here. It's almost as if this is where the most angry, pre-pubescent children come to cause problems.

I understand the popularity of this game attracts even the lowest form of human: "Internet" tough guys. Hidden behind your IP address makes you tough.

This game will be PLAGUED with low lifes on LIVE too...I'm not looking forward to listening to the children acting tough, with their little squeeky voices breaking up in my head set, while they call people names. It's going to require alot of locked, invitation only games.

I hate the idea that this game is going to create a massive a$shole party, just like in these forums, but I plan to play without my headset for most of the time anyway, so I suggest many do that to avoid the immature rants, racial slurs and name calling from pre-pube children.

i agree, this is one of the most aggressive message boards around. even more so than the neo geo boards i frequently visit. with xbox at such an affordable price, and halo 2 dubbed as the "next biggest thing", xbox live and this board with be infested with some of the most deadbeat gamers around.

They (mods) wouldn't be necessary if everyone could follow the rules, but as your topic line clearly illustrates, everyone cannot. As for hiding behing an IP, it's not hard to learn more about a couple of our mods, if you bother to look. I think that this was just an excuse to attack someone. If someone disagrees with you get over it. Sometimes people are sarcastic in their replies, get over it. Sometimes a mod will do something you don't like. Read the posted guidelines, figure out why they did it, then, GET OVER IT.

Game Junkie, you just won the as$hole award for this thread.

You were exactly the type of lowlife I was referring to. Not only were you wrong about your assumptions, but you came off like an immture pre-pubescent child.

Maybe my original post struck a chord with you? Perhaps....

I suppose the best thing you could do for our game is to just leave, never come back and become the most notorious Game Cube forum goer ever.

I agree with this thread...

Ah yes, but my friend gutterhead, there is no answer to your problem. Though you are very right, to at least some extent, there is no easy solution to your problem. We could ban every flamer and ass on sight, but no new users would ever come here. We could add more mods, but even they have lives and schedules. We could make even more strict rules, but no one would ever follow them.

There is nothing we can do, my friend. While I feel your pain (oh, yes, probably worse than anyone else) there is nothing to stop this problem. So alas, if the forum can't change, we must change. You're a smart guy, you must see that's the only way.

My assumptions? I responded in kind to what you said. The only -blam!- here is the one that started the thread to begin with. You start a thread with no intention but to start an argument? Now who's a child. And to 'insult' me you suggest I play a GameCube? Ooooh Nice Cut there, Biff.
I probably have children as old as you. Please stop with the jokes. I'm too old and could have a heart attack if I laugh at you too much. Now stop your spam baiting and get a job, and quit sitting on this on Tuesday Morning. (I love working in an office!)

Gutterhead, you need to chill out.

I complety agree with both gamejunkie and yourself.

There are plenty of flamers, but does it make it any BETTER by starting a post about your problems? Does it?

You go around telling everyone they are -blam!-s. The first impression (as of now) that i have got of yourself is that your a person that only wants things his way, so you start a post to whine about the 12 year olds that plague the forum.

They (12 year olds) know no better, it's not like they have there parents with them on the forums.

Then you go on about the mods that hide behind their IPs?
If you were a mod, would you ban everyone who had a opinion, whether it be flaming or not?

If you would, most of us would be scared to post, thinking we might get banned.

Gamejunkie an -blam!-? no my friend, the only -blam!- i see here would be your self for "blasting" him.

It's really not all it's cracked up to be. I type all day long and make spreadsheets, and hide Bungie.net when the big boss comes by. (My supervisor doesn't care though.)

It was never my intention to make anyone retreat - that wasn't my point at all, I just was pointing out that he was ranting about something he was doing himself.
It's not nice to be a hypocrite.

>>Back from my lair<<

While it was nice to hear some people understand the issues and agree, you guys just proved my point.

Thanks to the guys who understand the issues within the forums, and I'd like to inform those "tough guys" that blasting people for their opinions make you look foolish, not the person you attack.

I agree with that at the least.

But you didn't say that before. You started this whole thread just to argue.
Your point would be that you are a jerk who likes to start trouble?
Or that people aren't allowed to argue without your say-so?
I agree that you shouldn't yell at people for having a difference in opinion, but you shouldn't troll either. People are going to argue, it's human nature. I refer to my earlier post; GET OVER IT.

Also, Game Junkie, it's not nice to "assume" anything, as YOU did in your first response.

Yes however, you call people names constantly, like Troll, hypcrit (sp) and so on, and that makes you look bad.

Acting like your some tough guys does not make you a tough guy, it means that you're some small insignificant person with something to prove. You come off like somebody that has a chip on his shoulder, just waiting for something to happen.

MY PROOF: You were offended by my thread. Why? It had to have struck a chord with you. Somehow you took it as a threat. Why? Have you been one of those people?

Only you can answer that, and quite frankly, I am not interested in the response.

And you wonder why I called you a troll?
I'm done - I tried to be amneable to a cease fire and you just tried to start the argument again, I and quite possibly everyone else here can see who is the bigger person, and who likes to start trouble. Good Day to you sir - I refuse to respond to this post any further.
