Hey everyone, we've brought back the System Wars forum. Here's what we'd like to see it being used for:
- Debate on which system is best. This should be a useful forum for anyone who is looking to buy a gaming system. Debate is fine, opinions are fine, flaming and trolling are not. Constructive debate only please.
Here's what we don't want it used for:
- Flaming, trolling, subjects completely off topic from system debates, etc. We'll be moderating this forum a bit more than before to maintain a higher level of quality. Childish banter may be closed or deleted from now on.
Definitions:
"Troll" - a user who posts solely for the purpose of provoking arguments and flamefests. Trolls typically offer little in terms of useful debate.
"Flame" - an argument where one user verbally attacks another due to conflicting opinions. Once people start arguing back and forth like children, and insulting eachother, it can be considered a flame war. Profanity is common, but not necessarily defining of a flame war.
