Default Keeping PC talk out of Console threads.

Can mods start to delete posts/warn members to stop posting this crap into every single console thread that is made. It gets annoying when people are having a discussion say about the PS4 and within 2 comments it just becomes "PC's are better, LOLOLOLOLOLOL". Every single thread becomes like this.

When every single thread turns into a PC>console thread it just gets to the point where people need to go away. Just my opinion and I won't name names even though there is 1-2 members that come up in every single one of these discussions, but can mods start to step in to stop this. It's getting ridiculous.

The iOS vs Android thread did a pretty good job of isolating all the arguing about those two things to one thread. Maybe start a thread for that. Let people get their snide comments out of the way there.

With average salaries in this forum so high, you're bound to have at least a few gamers that prefer the graphics from their $1500+ PC rig, compared to a $300 console. A surprising result, I know, but it's true.

That is not relevant. If a thread is active and is being pushed off topic, please report the post and we will be happy to issue a warning in the thread.

I play on console because I would much rather relax in m favorite recliner playing a on my 55" big screen, than feel like I am still at the office crunching numbers all day.

I don't leave my desk everyday, to go sit at a desk all night.

Usually it's just video game nerds that can't comprehend that some people just have a casual interest in video games, and would rather chill in front of a TV with some friends and flip on the old Xbox and play some NHL or Madden, than know they have the most up to date, $2000 gaming machine so they can sit in front of a computer alone and play some game for hours on end, and then go to gaming message boards and raise hell because a pixel was slightly out of place in their new game and all the employees of that software complany need be fired and the company should go under because the pixel ruined their enjoyment of their nerd-tacular new game.

God I hate computer game nerds.

Computer game nerds? What is this, 1993?

I actually find it funny that people take it this seriously, both consolers (and the stinking rabble they are) and PC gamers (the obviously superior beings).

PC gamers are giant dicks, no question about it.
