It's just AE saying that he thinks there is no point in buying a PS4 or XBOX720 as a PC for the same price is better, it's in the PS4 thread
It's not just that.
Almost every thread that still interests me here is infested by AE. I see them pop up to the top with new posts and then read who the most recent post was made by. Sometimes I actually go into the thread and wonder why it's back at the top if the last post was several weeks ago - superfoe completely removing the foe posts and anything that quoted it. Sometimes I go into the thread and am on a completely empty new page because everything has been blocked.
You know when a girl has gotten under your skin and is then (whether consciously or not) giving you the run around? Just by being there, she changes the situation. She might be sitting across the room, she might walk past. She doesn't have to talk to you or look at you, but knowing that she's there still gets to you. You wonder when she's going to pop up next. She's not doing anything per se but it's still HER and she's THERE and that's enough to fuck with your head.
It's a stupid explanation but that's what it feels like for me. It puts me on edge.
We already went over this shit
three months ago and with the limpest of conclusions. AE was completely unrepentant and even stated he'd continue as he is as it's not his problem if people don't like it. You have to be a cunt of staggering magnitude to make such a declaration, and remain defiant in the face of so many people unhappy or outright driven away. A 'truce'? Please. In the misguided notion of needing to be 'excellent' to each other you've defanged yourselves and have given the power to the problem who is now dictating the outcome. Are you afraid of setting some kind of precedent by taking actual action? Don't worry, the place has already lost its direction by allowing things to get to this stage in the first place.
It's not all AE, there's other issues too. If you go back into the mists of time and read the epic and exciting threads of bezzie gaming, it truly was a golden age. Now there's rather a lot of dreary stuff being posted which doesn't interest me so that just leaves the aforementioned contaminated games threads... so in other words, nothing.
I don't expect anything to come of this. It's a classic example of "We're all sick of this shit, right guys?" and the assembled crowd behind the hero all look at the ground. Apathy destroying the place is most definitely not being 'excellent', and I wonder whether it's too late for action to be taken now, the disillusionment has grown so much. So, yeah, just carry on as you are, as I'm sure you will.
I have enough stress, depression, BS and drahma in my real life, I won't be squandering my precious R&R being aggravated. I've already told several people, but you can publicly add me to the list of those taking leave indefinitely.
