Dude.

You really want to restart this stale... err... "argument" I suppose one could call it?

It wasn't an attack. You asked me why I was here. I answered you. I didn't insult you.

"Since my first five hours were all about exploring, my favorite thing was how unique and varied every region is"

"So far the final product absolutely holds up, and it creates a loop of mystery and discovery that feels like a reinvention of a 30 year-old franchise"

I figured since most people see IGN as in the pockets of Sony or EA or Microsoft or Mountain Dew or whoever they're reviewing this week that isn't Nintendo, I think their insight has some worth on this. They aren't the only ones giving praise to the game of course, there are plenty of other outlets that are saying good things.

oh right i forgot. because your specific opinion is just oh so important. and everyone needs to hear every little opinion you have because you are just that important. no matter how little you care about said subject at hand.
This was your response to Zhukov who was merely posting and didn't insult you directly, and yet you acted sarcastic and rude about it.

yeah that totally doesn't sound like a personal attack against me from him Elvis, making assumptions about me along those lines like that.

but whatever. mods made their decision.
So no, it's not an "attack". In case you forgot, The Escapist encourages users to speak to other users with respect. If you can't speak to them without being overly sarcastic, rude, and side-handed about it (like you did) then don't bother making said post. You did just that, and you got punished for it. Got a problem with the result? Take it up with the mods. But I think you know you could've handled the situation with Zhukov a LOT better and avoided this entirely.

Don't you dare put needless blame on me for your actions. Think before you post, like me and many other users do (As my clean health bar and x3 the amount of posts will tell you)

Edit: Sarcasm isn't a bad thing. It's when you took it too far and directed it towards another user about the worth of their posts. That is what you did wrong

mods won't discuss shit with me at all. not once have i received an answer from them when i've queried things with them before.
hell they've got mad at me and given me an infraction for "spamming" when all i made was just one little "git gud" joke. how harmful is something like that, really? this place is no fun

if any mods are seeing this. a pm to actually discuss things for once would be fantastic. i've used the contact form on several occasions like we're supposed to, but have never received a response.

Moderation can be kind of inconsistent and from what I've seen the mods don't actually discuss things with one another very often. You're better off just reading the CoC and trying to interpret the mod's reasoning yourself. Also don't forget to appeal if you think your warning wasn't just.

Also you can always just post in the Wild West subforum, there's basically no moderation there, so that kind of solves your problems.

I tried to give the thread a chance to fix itself, I really did (Honestly, ask anyone!) but the thread has become a slap fight rather than talking about the new Zelda game. If you need to discuss something, feel free to PM me Yoshi (I can't guarantee you're going to like the answer but I will talk it out with you if you'd like)
