My personal feeling is that these threads and similar ones are created to make the "obnoxious 2K fans" eat crow (which is why I'd guess it was noted that some 2K fans felt the game would sell over a million). If your hypothetical were true and I was in the NCAA forum creating similar threads there would be a problem, period. The difference is I'd know that. As you're one that happily steered people towards NCAA instead of APF, I can see you understanding the purpose of the mulitiple threads. I really don't care because I feel posters in this forum are far more willing to debate issues of any sort here than elsewhere. But imo it is what it is - I could be wrong, but that's the feeling I get.

I definitely think there are people here who like to try to rile / bait people and then call them '2k defense force' or 'obnoxious 2k fans'. It isn't funny and most people don't really see it for what it is.

I don't really see this thread as very bad, though.

To end this "debate", I am locking this up. I actually don't see the point for 3 straight weeks of sales talks. Do we do this for any other game? How about MLB 2K or the Show? I'm not saying anyone is trolling or anything, but man the "conversation" in these threads the past 3 weeks has gone more down hill.

My advice--APF'ers--Enjoy the game, I do. EA guys--enjoy your game, I do. I don't own stock in either company so that affords me the luxury of enjoying both games.

If another mod disagrees with locking this, by all means open it back up...No hard feelings at all.
