[QUOTE="phreaker47, post: 65286, member: 853"] I've never been a moderator myself, but having been around forums for a good 15+ years (and BBS boards too, before the internet), I understand the decisions moderators are often faced with. I agree with the closing of that thread, even if there was some possible redeeming value to it, because of the way it had spun out of control. As for banning people... well, there's no clear line on when that should or shouldn't be done, but everyone has a different take on it. The atmosphere of this forum has always been on the forgiving side overall, and that works pretty well here. Don't think it's forgiving? Try pulling any of this on NeoGaf. You'll be banned in a heartbeat. They have their reasons though... they are a very well known, highly regarded site that is often the first to break news in the world of gaming... and they just HAVE to police that thing the way they do to maintain order. Anyway, it's all wait and see for TPA and the PS4, but I agree that speculation can be interesting, as long as we're all recognizing that little is known at this point and likely, little behind the scenes has actually been ironed out.
