It's just a video game company, what sort of childish person can't deal with other people having a more negative outlook? Were people actually complaining? What a bunch of cry babies.
Honestly it's mostly a matter of scale.
There used to be days where I opened up this forum and there were like 5 topics on the first page with titles like "Sony is about to go down because it has no GamePass", "I think this year's results for Sony will be very bad" and "If Sony doesn't buy Square Enix they're going bankrupt".
And they were all started by the same group of 3-4 users.
One could say if we have this rule for Playstation then we should have it for Xbox.. and perhaps we should.
But the truth is we don't really see those topics being created for Xbox because people are mostly checking out from the brand.
I don't remember ever getting 5 topics on the first page saying "Phil Spencer needs to go", "Microsoft needs to kill GamePass" and "If Microsoft doesn't buy SEGA next wednesday they're going bankrupt". But if we did, I would also be in favor of focusing all those posts into one thread.
Also because these threads are mostly troll-baits, to be honest.
