I haven't spoken much on my opinion on this, so I'll do it now. I know OB1 won't be here to read this, and I know this has been argued to death in the "My two cents" thread, but I still feel like giving my opinion. I guess I need to say it moreso for myself, just to get it off my chest.
OB1: I'm sorry that you're leaving. I'm not saying such to be polite or politically correct or any kind of bullshit like that, because part of me truly IS sorry to see you go. You were always helpful in posting video game news and predictions, and it's those posts of yours that I'll miss.
The posts I WON'T miss are your silly little single sentence/picture/"..." replies. I wouldn't mind if you hadn't pimped out these forums like a chatroom as often as you did, and it started to irritate me, and apparently a lot of others. I wasn't going to speak up about this again, since I didn't think it was worth starting another dumb, huge argument.
I also won't miss all your inflammatory posts. I can scarcely recall any "debate" you've had, not only with me, but with just about anyone, where you haven't ended up downright belittling the person for having a different opinion than yours. You act high and mighty, as though you're the bigger person in this and it's the rest of us who are acting immature and petty, and it's so ri-god-damn-diculous that I don't know whether to laugh or feel sorry for you.
Non-stop? Don't be such a
(hypocritical, I know, but I couldn't resist). The only time people have spoken out against your crap posts are that fight back in February, plus now. And in this instance, people aren't even demanding that you cut down your typical crap posts, just from the new forum! Raising a big stink over this is a new low for you, hands-down. Talk about how it's the principle of the matter all you want, but you're being petty. There comes a time when you need to bite the bullet and compromise, and the fact that you accuse the rest of us for being unbendable and completely unlenient (illenient? inlenient?) has to be the greatest exhibit of your hypocrisy. I could go more into how much you're blowing this out of proportion, but it's already been said in the other thread, so I might as well not bother.
Anyways, with all that out of the way, good luck to you as well. I hope you come to realize how stupid you've acted one day and come back, but considering how flagrantly stubborn you are, I don't see that happening soon.
