Are the mods here getting paid by MS?

I don't know about GETTING PAID by MS (ridiculous). But I found it weird I got my post deleted as well for asking a question. Most Xbox games ARE on PC right? (Does MS even has exclusives?)

Vawn you are literally the worst xbox drive by shit poster on this board, you can't go a Microsoft thread without posting in it with negative comments even though you never plan on buying or choosing one. Deadset unhealthy.

He may be up there, but to be fair, I can think of several people that are far, far worse.
 
tfw you can't say anything bad or neutral about a company as if they were people/users here because it triggers somebody and people still have a consolewars mentality even thought they aren't 12 anymore

That being said if MS is hiring a full time shitposter or hypeman at twitter @me

There are definitely worse, but he's certainly consist when it comes to showing up and shitting up an Xbox related thread.

Unfortunately, it seems all "sides" have their own Vawn and we very rarely have any level headed threads these days.

Maybe because they are not being reported as a mod already said?

The "XBOX has no / good exclusives" rhetoric is just BS spewed by Sony fanboys. It's the very epitome of console warring. If people have actual, genuine criticism of how Microsoft handled this generation (Like starting with "TV, TV, TV" or the forced Kinect, or that intrusive anti-used market stance they took) then nobody is going to take issue...but yes, posts intended to start console warring, or those which are likely to be intended to do as such, probably should be deleted...as they were in this case.

Man I talk shit about Sony's policies as well but asking (yes asking not stating) If MS even had exclusives is too much and is console warring? Is this gamefaqs now?


BTW it was on a thread asking which was the worst exclusive the system had. How the fuck is this

Labeling any form of criticism against xbox as fanboyism and reporting the shit out of something people dislike is the same.

Have enough people scream the same thing and it works.

Because Sonygaf. /s

Not all reports need to acted on. If that were the case we'd have nothing but delete comments.

I can't answer the inner workings, but I have seen mods say they reject a lot as well. So maybe they are just starting to tighten a little more going Into console war Armageddon like every new console launch is.

I have noticed trolling has been getting worse and worse the past few months, so maybe they want to maintain some semblance of discourse?

A post deletion with no action to the account is pretty light, compared to other places on the internets.

lol just joking you guys are pretty alright on this neogaf, stay outta middle east for a few weeks though...
 
I'm not a mod, but if there's money to be made for posting in favour of Microsoft's shitty run this generation (or spruiking their next set of wares), I'm all in! Just DM me.

Neogaf LLC is one of the top prime employers in the state of Texas and pays their staff an average of $85k a year, just ask evilore.

When you are rich you can pay the big bucks. Adsense bringing in $200k a quarter, and we haven't even touched Neogaf Gold yet!
 
Don't be fanboys guys, it's bad for your health. This is product of ResetEra. Sony best, Collusion, Capitalism Bad, apparently drinking soy milk, etc:
 
NVM, thread you created wasn't too bad, not sure why it was locked, it seemed like a legit question.

So i made a joke post about MS had no good exclusives this gen in this thread: https://www.neogaf.com/threads/least-favorite-microsoft-exclusive-this-gen.1518370/

but it was deleted because it was "too old", but people were laughing, but even if it's not funny so what? i thought we had freedom of speech here unlike the other place

why did you do this my dude?

Could it be because the "MS has no good exclusives" joke has been used more than a laundromat washer and is basically forum filler at this point?

Yup, not to mention it's already too similar to the "PS3 haz no games" meme from last gen which did produce a few gems, but is now pretty played out and reads more like a low effort history lesson than comedy.

Actually when you log on someone's website that they pay for, you loose your freedom of speech, Just like you can't go on facebook and twitter and post anything you want, If the Mods found it distasteful or thought it would be best to not ignite an argument, it is their right to delete it,

Bit of a personal story. I used my older name in Dragon Dogma(on Xbox 360) and then used it for a while online. Unfortunately, now a days the name Scathach is associated with the Fate franchise and not the original Irish myth. And since I have also moved on from that name I decided to change it to something else. Why did the mods decide to tag my older name ??? Is this normal here ?
This is not something mods paid by Microsoft will do.
So,
NeoGAF mods are not paid by Microsoft

At least it's a cool tag.
