What with your forum join date of March THIS YEAR..

And your 25 or so posts..

I am not 100% suprised that you feel the need to ask for this kind of proof..

But anyone that has been here more than a month does not need to ask that question.

Without doubt Tree wasn't innocent.

However, he's not the only guilty party, it takes two sides to have an argument.

And its the same endless arguments being relentlessly slung around over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over..........

Agreed

The reality of this forum is..

A) negative comments can kill a product
B) positive comments can prolog a product

As someone who wants to see CoD make it

I think it is important for the newcomers to this forum to know the difference between a real and false negative comment.

And by newcomer I mean, not only the people who have recently joined and post from time to time, but all the people out there that recently purchased CoD, or are thinking about it but have not joined the forum and only read what is in it. You know the types, people with jobs and kids and such that only have a few minutes a week to check up on the status of the game and have no interest let alone time to post anything

With that said

Can you imagine the impression a new comer would walk away with if they were to see a typical Tree_UK post, and all of Tree_UK supports agreeing with him.. That is to say a post where NO ONE disagrees with him. Chances are that newcomer will probably walk away with a view that this game is doomed.

That is one of the reasons I question statements like Tree_UK.. To provide some BALANCE!!

There is another

I belive if you ask people to explain, in more detail, what it is they are basing their statements on

I think that in the process of doing so they will realize how little of what they said is based on facts and how much of it was based on emotions

Sadly.. Most never take up the challenge

Why?

Well human nature for one, where:

CASE 1) Most start to, realize their response is emotionally driven, but are too proud to admit they are wrong.
CASE 2) Are pissed off at the devs for <insert reason> and just want to make trouble for the devs

There are more, but most fall into one of these two categories.

As for CASE 1, There is a chance these types will eventually be adult enough to admit they were wrong
As for CASE 2, There is no helping or chancing the mind of those types, they are pissed and will remain so.

Its a dream I know!

But as long as we keep in clean and follow the rules there is no reason we can not exchange ideas and points of view in this forum!

Disagree to an extent, there's a third group who acknowledge the truth of both 1 and 2, where i would put myself (and i hope the majority).

Your correct..

It is not really one or the other.. I think everyone understands both

I just think those who make the unfounded negative comments don't realize how much damage they can have

Especially if no one points out how unfounded the comments are!

So Ill go back and edit that post to make it a little more clear

LOL! So now all negative comments are unfounded? You just keep exposing yourself for everyone that your opinions are fool-hardy and not to be taken seriously. Or are you suggesting just Tree's comments were unfounded. Tree's comments were usually spot on and that's why it ruffled your feathers so much and forced you to create a counter-attack to try and "save the good name of COD". lol....pathetic

He didn't say that. Saying "I just think those who make the unfounded negative comments don't realize how much damage they can have" is NOT the same as saying "all negative comments are unfounded". It's not even close. The fact that you're saying they're the same would indicate that you don't really care what he said. You're just trolling.

Take a deep breath..

Count to 10..

And than re-read what I said

As you are reading what I said, again

Take note that I did NOT say 'all negative comments are unfounded'

What I did say is 'those who make the unfounded negative comments'

Big difference

If your still confused after the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th re-read feel free to PM me and I can try and clear up the difference in what I actully said and what you think I said

Deal?

Haha! Keep it clean means " no whining" no "complaints" and welcome fanboys ?
Keep it clean means you can do personnal attacks but no one else ?
