@ReaderRagfihs Are you implying that this actually would make me a grammar Nazi?

It's more along the lines of me not understanding how anyone that is a native speaker, doesn't have the capacity to type it correctly, and on the other hand how even people that aren't native, don't seem to pick up on how stuff is supposed to be written, when they spend a lot of their free time on an English game forum.

And I'm also looking at myself: I'm an American living in the Netherlands, and have been for well over 39 years.
I don't speak English on a regular basis anymore, seeing as that isn't a native language over here (dòh), but I'm still perfectly able to read and write English. And it's not like I'm an English teacher or University grade student,
so I reckon that if I can do it, anyone can. Well, almost anyone...

I'm probably going to shoot myself in my foot now, but one of my major pet peeves is people saying "should of" instead of "should have". It always makes me question the level of their education, or lack thereof...

@Anti-Matter wow. You have the same taste as my 8 year old daughter. She loves princess movies

We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.

Is anyone relieved that Nintendo isn't affected by the crap trend of micro-transactions & loot-boxes in PC gaming?

I was looking at gaming news and saw the recent AAA games and popular games, it's a almost a cesspool lol.

It doesn't really bother me either way, but Nintendo isn't completely free of the practice. Animal Crossing, Pokemon Shuffle, Pokemon Rumble, the Badge Arcade.
I don't really understand the loot-box outrage anyway. It's not like everyone is forced to buy them, yeah? I bought a few Spectre Packs with real money in Mass Effect 3 because that was the only game I bought for months after it came out.

@puddinggirl Nah, they're just 10 years behind everyone else. They'll have them too in a couple of years

No, but honestly, exclusive amiibo content is in a way worse than micro-transactions; because they're micro-transactions that can sell out, can be hard to find, or become incredibly expensive over time.

So, I've noticed that recently, we seem to have a "serial disliker" (not my label, OorWullie came up with that one), who seemingly dislikes literally all posts in a comments section just for the hell of it, easily recognizable because most of the dislikes make no sense whatsoever. I don't know if I should have mentioned that here or in another topic, but it annoys me to no end. Is there anything you guys can do about it, @antdickens? Seems to me like this user is seriously abusing this function, because I'm pretty sure you didn't intend for it to be used so randomly...

If you need an example, then just take a look at these articles:
https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/02/1tb_micro_sd_cards_a...
https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/02/sega_wants_to_know_w...
Literally EVERY comment has dislikes, which makes no sense whatsoever.

EDIT: I just noticed that in the first link, Ant was the only one without a dislike. It was @antdickens all along. And he would've gotten away with it if it weren't for that pesky Thanos.

@Delibheel True on the one hand, but on the other, it's still either a troll or a bully, and they shouldn't get away with stuff like that, simply because it doesn't actually mean much. And today it's the dislike button, tomorrow it's the report button, who knows? Although probably not, because that would actually require some real effort, but still. You'll get the idea. Stop 'em while you still can...

@antdickens You're welcome, but actual credit should probably go to @OorWullie, because reading his comment about it, actually made me aware of this rather weird occurrence in the first place.

Will mods eventually get the tools to check that information? That’d be useful if this were to happen on a large scale.

One user disliking everything is just a lone loser. A mob doing it however...

@antdickens Okay... that was a bit harsh, wasn't it? I was actually thinking more along the lines of a warning, as in: give him a yellow card first, and with repeated offenses, a red card, but not straight away. Then again: it's your site, so your decision, ultimately.
