These forums are full of gamers so dont expect anything big since most gamers think they are some godlike being that deserves immidiate respect and is SOMEONE UNIQUE AND IMPORTANT even though they are so stupid they cant see that this attitude is just coming from silly in game manipulations that only exist to make them feel better about themselves for no real reason. Well no real reason for them, the companies get a lot of money from that, hooray for ethical game industry xD
This also creates gigantic fragile empty egos that make many gamers rage and attack anyone who said anything negative for them, just see the forums, full of negative retaliations so their fragile egos wont get hurt. And because of those stupidly fragile egos free speech isnt allowed.
Generic gamer got banned because he had an "offensive" opinion, and moderators do know how stupid people are here and know that many are going to attack him because he "insulted" them, while if people had brains and KNEW that they werent what generic gamer said then they wouldnt get offended...
Even trolls get banned here because people are so stupid they cant see when someone is OBVIOUSLY provoking them...But eh, you have to defend your ego from the evil troll attacks...
Plus people feel better when someone is doing something that they believe is not right, because it implies they are the good innocent people. Have you seen the lulzsec threads that got deleted? They were full of people insulting and degrading lulzsec so they can make their sad selves feel better compared to evil and unethical lulzsec that stole their precious ego boosts... Watching threads filled with pointless insults and degrading terms was kinda sad...completely pointless and useless but eh makes ppl feel better in their imaginary world
Which leads to the subject of pointless and stupid obvious answer topics which i facepalm every time i see, but in the case of "opinion topics" People feel better subconsciously when they see threads like "what do YOU..." or "YOU believe that x?". Those thinks make people think someone actually cares or that their opinion matters but just like you observed, it doesnt matter at all, people are posting pointless opinions completely disregarding other opinions so at the end you have a 10 page thread with opinions bouncing form one side to another and 0 good arguments expect "degrading arguments" since gamers dont have much of a defense, knowledge wise so they just try to degrade someones argument by calling him a kid, jobless or whatever, anything that will make them look lesser in their eyes so their ego wont get hurt...
Some threads at least serve as lulz, watching homophobic people at mass effect 3 same sex romance thread or watching some epicly epic funny quotes about sexuality is quite nice time killing xD
