Support NeoGAF

[DoubleClutch]

I linked a tiny screenshot from an IGN article and a screenshot from a post on Reddit showcasing a mod. Apparently the resolution was low that it did not faithfully represent the game. For the record, I have no way of telling on the mobile version of the forum… it all looks relatively small and linking is difficult enough as is. Plus, like I mentioned, it linked directly to IGN's article (I didn't upload my own version or anything of the sort).

A mod rightfully edited my post directly to change one of the links, linking to a new site now (Nintendo's), so now apparently only one looked low resolution. They didn't even leave my original link side by side. This distorted my original message, on my behalf.

It may not be a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but this approach is not something I agree with. I think users' posts should not be altered, because I'm fragile. Imagine if X or any social media platform, instead of adding community notes, had the moderation team directly edit user content. This erodes trust and leaves me with little faith in what I'm reading. My post could have been refuted in many other ways, and that would've been fine.

That's why this will be my last post here. I wish everyone well, but this place is not for me.

All the best everyone.

[Danjin44]

I don't know why people think they are so important that everybody else needs give fuck when they leave..

I will cherish all 731 of your messages just as I cherish each sperm I shoot into your Mom.

COWARD!

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Probably the least intrusive and aggressive thing a mod has ever done that someone account suicided over. Damn... Back to Reddit.

Bit of an overreaction dude. At least you don't have a silly tag attached to your profile for all the years to come.

Looks to me like they replaced the shitty image you included with a better one. If that distorts your message then your message was already shitty.

At least you have a silly tag.

 

[Miyazaki’s Slave]

I hate screen shots...especially those from IGN.

A mod edited my post, which was only based on FACTUAL information that the world is flat. Apparently people think the world is NOT flat...they also think the world should have achievements.

I hate all of you and I hope someone bans my account.

All the best everyone.

Seems like this person got what they wanted as per their post...why so angry?

I think you're overreacting to the situation a bit here.

 

[Draugoth]

Overeaction? He just changed the source to the original source, i ask that all the time...

You should see the mods on reddit, they would ban you just for linking to X.

I'd think a place that boasts itself as a community wouldn't be put off when one of the community members leaves.

Not saying anybody needs to care when someone leaves but part of the appeal of forums was that people got know each other. It's why we have avatars and unique names and histories.

 

[Mr Moose]

Aww, the big bad mod edited your post?

 

[Sooner]

Mod should edit this post to say he wets the bed still.

Probably OP has something else going wrong in his day or his life to bring him to the edge of making an ass of himself. It's a good time for a reminder to just take a step back, shut off the monitor, go for a walk when you're feeling like that.

For what it's worth OP, I agree that emulated BotW looks better than the Switch 2 version, even on a mid-range PC.

I don't know I don't take gaming forums seriously enough to care who leaves or who stays.

If I decide to leave this place I just stop visiting the site and that's it…..there is no need for me to announce it.

Not on an Xbox 360 slim ?

Fuck me what did I miss

 

[Spukc]

do we have a new mod calling shit right now? i got a post removed for a pretty lame reason.
a gif from the movie called the fly.

because it was gross.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

This distorted my original message, on my behalf.

what was the original message? cuz I read the post and i didn't understand

 

[Buggy Loop]

I tried to warn ya.

You could have done your own edit in the OP after peoples pointed it out and called you for it. You chose to keep that low resolution narrative and then account suicide when mods did the edit job for you?

The Switch 2 is tearing GAF apart.

 

[Quasicat]

Let me get this right… you posted a link, a mod changed that link. If you really cared enough, couldn't you change the link back? It just seems like a bad reason to end it this way.

 

[IDKFA]

Fucking hell, if you want to leave just log out or message a mod to close the account. No need to make a thread to announce it.

Also, if you really do want to make a thread at least make it entertaining and commit account suicide.

Some people seem to be really on edge since the Switch 2 reveal. What's going on? Too many nintendo threads, can't keep up.

[demigod]

At least wait until Friday for your meltdowns folks. Also did we figure out which fanboy this dude was?

 

[Reaseru]

The Switch 2 reveal sure fucked up the mind of a lot of people.

It's just a console, people. It's neither the Anti-christ nor the second coming of Christ...
