He seems pretty active though so I think it's plenty of time. In any case, he already has the threat of a permanent ban that he wouldn't forget either. I think he will probably get himself banned again, although I would like to be proven wrong. I would like to think it won't happen again but quite frankly these console warriors all blend together with similar posting behavior. I'm sorry if I sound mean or whatever but Bo should know better by now. It's on him to change, not the process of banning people.It might need to be longer than a month.
The longer they stay away, the longer they have to think about their actions, and think about whether it really is worth it or not. Mind you, I'm only offering this leniency to posters who have demonstrated positive qualities in other areas too. Users who have nothing in their post history but console warring bullshit can be purged more quickly.
For some people, threats don't register in the brain. They need to feel it.In any case, he already has the threat of a permanent ban that he wouldn't forget either.
This is like the third time Bo was banned.
I say make a poll: should console warring be allowed on neogaf? if people vote YES to allow all out console warring, who are we to deny them?

This is far more accurate.

You should be perm'd for this suggestion.I say make a poll: should console warring be allowed on neogaf? if people vote YES to allow all out console warring, who are we to deny them?
I think it'd be fine if there were specific threads for it like the underused Thunderdome thread but a lot of us don't like it stinking up everything.
I think it'd be fine if it was like how Americans argue about football. Jokingly, with self-awareness, and having fun with it.
Instead, these farnsgoths literally cry on camera about announcements on Twitter, and have spergouts in every thread.
This just sounds like an easy way to find out who should be banned.
You aren't American? Man, I swore I'd never leave America, just one more hurdle between us!
it's just a suggestion, i'm trying to stop console warring since my last warning

Is trying to stop console warring like trying to stop smoking? Why so hard?
Agreed. I've got no patience for console warring, fanboy nonsense.
He's been permmed before if I remember correctly, and even after it was reversed it still didn't change anything. So unfortunately, I don't see a very long temp ban doing much of anything.
To then permaban him in January?Bo finally got what was coming to him. Now someone please unban @Hix
The thread was about MS Flight Simulator, a game not available on PS5 mind you, and HR was talking about being tempted to pick up a Series S in order to play it. So I'm not sure how anyone could give Bo the benefit of the doubt on the intention behind his posts in that thread considering his history.In fairness to Bo, his post could easily be equally interpreted as not console warring.
He was responding to Hawking Radiation, who was considering a PS5, and thus why the response he gave him.
It's just unfortunate that Bo did it in a Xbox thread after past warnings, as that was probably cutting it too close, and you have to read back into a number of Hawking Radiation posts in that thread to understand that he was interested in picking up the PS5, so the context was easily missed.

I can pick up Series X or PS5 later down the road. Neither of them will be readily available for quite some time anyways because they are in high demand.
Don't panic, get a PS5 when available, soon enough. It seems to be easier here though to secure a preorder on each wave.
Perhaps, but I feel like Bo had burned a lot of whatever good will he had with the mods. As a result, he needs to kind of tread a bit more careful when it comes to comments that can easily be twisted into looking like console warring, but I honestly don't think he can control himself at this point.From that same thread, Hawking Radiation:

Bo's response was more to his earlier comment, than to his wavering on whether to get a Series S or not:
Also should note, that his tone is of being helpful, and no way sounds like "console warring".
I myself have responded to people in posts, that referred to an earlier posting (but quoted a more recent comment), as many of these threads are "conversational".

I burned their last straw of "GamePass is a great deal" by showing that PS Now is vastly superior without PS Plus/GOLD needed to play MP and with GOTY contender games in it. They spam reported it because it was too painful to invest in such a mediocre ecosystem.
Here's a nice beauty post. The week before he was already trashing the NBA2k thread turning into Game Pass and Halo sucks. I think that's what lead to his ban a week ago.
First day back and back at it in a different thread.
He sure hates Game Pass.

Right, so then what is the point of being lenient towards those same people who console war, who ignore warnings and return from their bans only to continue where they left off with the same warring behavior?For some people, threats don't register in the brain. They need to feel it.
That's why I said they should be long bans. The only difference between my proposal and yours, as far as I can tell, is that my "last chance" ban is a long one.Right, so then what is the point of being lenient towards those same people who console war, who ignore warnings and return from their bans only to continue where they left off with the same warring behavior?
Just because they make a couple funny posts in between their usual pro-Sony warring doesn't mean they should keep being given another chance. Once you give Bo special treatment then they all start asking for it. I just want the console warring to go away because it wasn't this bad when I joined last year.
