Comments policy
Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Living the dream since March 16, 2006
I'm getting really sick and tired of this mantra. If you don't frequent the forums and you don't know how they work, stop talking about them. That wasn't a fucking thread worthy post, it was a garble of nonsense.
I'm not coming in here and telling you how to do your "job", I'm just asking that you stop directing low quality things like that to the forums. We have standards too, you know?
The only kind of attention that would get in the forums is people asking him to stop posting shit threads. If anything, you're hurting the guy by directing him there.
"I don't appreciate your attitude."
I'll talk however I damn well please. I don't appreciate you talking down to me. Relax sir, there's no reason for us to argue over the interwebs. If I had known it would upset you that greatly I wouldn't have even brought it up.
Now I never insinuated that his post was a bad one, or that it was poorly written. I simply stated it belonged in the forums, and that's not because it's a bad post, but because of the type of post it was. The author of the post asked a question and was trying to get some responses from the comunity. Typically I find this best place for this is the forums, because it can get a lot more attention in the forums where people are constantly having discussions.
In the cblogs it would quickly get lost in a couple of hours and no one would ever see it again. I don't see that as making accusations that the forums are full of low quality posts. I was just trying to help this guy out. I'm sory that you see that as hurting the guy.
The Forums don't consist of shitty one-liner bullshit boring topics. We don't need any random Boners in there fucking things up.
And I'm really tempted to go and get the new Prince of Persia, I love the old ones, and you can get the special edition for the exact same price as the regular game down at the Movie Gallery. Nice recap friend.
When we say a cblog belongs in the forums, it's because we honestly think that the cblog would get a lot more attention in the forums. We are trying to help, not hurt. I apologize if we are giving the wrong impression, but I assure you that we are not trying to give the forums a bad name. I love the dtoid forums, and for completely different reasons then why I love the dtoid cblogs. I don't want to see crap get into the forums, the same way I don't want to see crap get into the cblogs.
Agreed. Lord knows we need real pornstars to take their place instead.
@SilverDragon: While I believe you are sincere in what you said, by titling the post This would get a lot more attention in the forums, which is where it belongs! and having it under the "Fail" section made it seem like the opposite of what you intended. Like Fail belongs in the forums. That's where Bwark-Kupo I believe is coming from.
But this is neither here nor there, just a misunderstanding. Now let's drink and talk games.
Drinks please.
/is the fighting over? I dont like it when my eFriends fight!
To be fair to Bwark-Kupo, there are many times when people post absolute crap that doesn't belong anywhere and are told "the forums are that way" which sucks because it implies that the people there wanna be inundated with junk posts that aren't good enough for the cblogs.
In this case though the post really wasn't bad it just wasn't a cblog and really should've been posted in the forums so it wasn't the best example to get upset about.
So, you're both right, hug and make up. I said hug Dammit!
I don't know what's going on, I've only glanced through the last few comics, but you do realize this is the internet? And furthermore, we're on a small corner of the internet.
