"The internet exists for people to complain."
Let me just I'm sorry I didn't PM you- I'm new to the forum, as are many other people. However, this quote, and indeed a large portion of your own post, are hypocritical. I realize people have a right to complain, but since when did that right not extend to those who choose to to be annoyed with the people who do nothing BUT complain? Essentially, I'm complaining about people complaining, so in essence maybe I'M a hypocrite as well, but that still doesn't revoke my right to express MY opinion on the way many others express THEIR opinions. Sure, they have a right to vent, but why can't *I* vent as well? When was a restriction place on what we could vent about? My point was that, in my opinion, there was too MUCH venting.
And maybe you see me as eccentric- I'm sorry I gave that impression, as it's false (then again, it's difficult to impartially judge one's self), but I do know that most people really don't see Nintendo going anywhere. However, I've learned long ago that reaching out to people who already agree with you is pointless and takes your cause no where. So I'm reaching out to the people who are in over their heads, who really SHOULDN'T be worrying about Nintendo because essentially, where's the point? Have we lost sight that we're talking about *videogames*? You say I'm taking this too seriously- maybe so in your eyes, but what about the people we KNOW are taking this too seriously? Very few of us make a living that relies on videogames for support- hell, most of us don't even work at all- so I'm just bringing up the question on why spend hours of your life worrying about it? You claimed my post wasn't going the way I intended- while it's true it very well could've ended up as such, I've ALSO learned that 10 posts is in no way a good indication of the way an entire thread's discussion will turn out. You didn't even give it time to really flesh out, you might say! 10 posts may be uncommonly active in PGC's forum's terms, especially so with this new one since a good portion of the old forum's users haven't made the switch yet, but really I admire you if you can accuratly predict the direction of a debate within the opening arguments, if you will.
All I'm really asking is to give things time- you're too quick to make judgements and often don't consider every viewpoint before hand. I'm guilty of it as well, but I at least try to rectify it. At least CONSIDER other opinions, other courses of action, other sides to the truth, even of your own opinion, before you take action.
