As with all forums that grow this forum has become a hive of trolling, flamebaiting, infighting and petty rule breaking. The constant verbal headbutting between PS3 and 360 fans is making interacting with the forum a less pleasant experience for all who inhabit it. To counter this the MOD team are starting a stricter regime in regards to rule breaking. Don't worry this doesn't necessarily mean that perma-bans will be chucked out without a care. Warnings, infractions and temp bans will be used to a greater degree and the violators educated in becoming better members of the forum.

If you spot a rule infringement (of any magnitude) please report it and let a member of staff deal with it. Too often members get involved in unnecessary arguments, try not to get involved. The aim of this is to promote a more mature forum with intelligent debate and a better quality of post all round.

Also be aware that over-sensitivity in response to a healthy debate and over zealous reporting is also frowned upon and will be dealt with accordingly. Report infringements not difference of opinions.

If you find that you can't enter one of the sections without making a dig at a console or its fans, don't go in there. Debate and argue (with fact/proof) all you like, that's what this place is about.

Lazy posts where the poster can't even be bothered to post a cohesive sentence and fills there post with '25252525'/'sgsdgsdgsdg'/etc. will also be punished.

Don't think of this as the Mod team on a power trip or some oppressive force out to ruin your fun, we are here to make this an enjoyable place for everyone and this plan should assist in that,

Regards

The Mod Team
