-Dave-

You couldn't be further from the truth. As a recently instated mod, I'll simply say, "you're wrong" and be done with it.

We all want to be able to discuss these games and enjoy them. It's difficult for guys to enjoy browsing the boards when there are numerous threads of guys posting videos of them talking for 10 minutes plus, then seeing the "in-fighting" that ensues.

It's one thing to make a post and then add video for proof. It's another to say your peace, post the video and "be out." That's what was happening unfortunately.

We had a lot of complaints about these types of threads (more than you will know) and something needed to be done. You may not agree with it, but the devs have absolutely nothing to do with this and it's more a result of users giving feedback on the site. That's all.

Of course, some won't believe me, claim I'm the devil or whatever, but if you're been here long enough, you'd know I have no reason to lie to you. It's all about the games, IMO. The same individuals who feel the need to post long-winded videos can spend time posting and interacting with others in the forum.

Anyone?? Are you kidding me?

If that were true there would only be like 20 guys left posting in the forums.

Wow, man... all Pared was saying was that Dave was wrong about the motivation behind the decision to limit video threads. Dave said the devs didn't want the videos up; Pared said "No, you're wrong. We had USER (POSTER) complaints." That's a statement of fact. As a mod, Pared is aware of the reasoning that went into it and is sharing it with us. And yes, as a mod Pared knows more than you or I do as users. It is a statement of fact. Dave was wrong. Pared said so.

EDIT: Next April fool's day, the mods should all change their avatars to pictures of Stalin or something. Just so everyone can scream, "Brutal oppressors!!!!" Unbelievable.

It's too bad the forums ban a guy who makes constructive videos of flaws in madden? I've seen guys make a fake user name and make tons of worthless flaming posts and not get banned.
