What happened?

@Neumax...You are welcome
forums.xbox.com/.../1524454.aspx

 

Those of whom you speak of are only looking for attention they are sad little people with no or few friends. This place is like a razor blade can cut you several times before you get the right answer. Microsoft is going through some current changes looking
for a new CEO and one is 68 years who’s on that list. Don’t worry about the forums worry about the future of Xbox Live I hear Microsoft is also looking for a buyer. So, when people are rude to you remember we all may not be here for much longer.

 

[quote user="Neumax"]regular posters are rude to one another and especially to people who are new to the forums. Talking down to new users and people on the forums who are just asking questions being treated like they're stupid.[/quote]Believe that's typically
due to 0G Silvers or CLV1 posters starting out with a rant against Microsoft. The forum guidelines state that excessive negative comments are prohibited. Usually I just report the person and move on.

This also isn't a Feedback forum. MS doesn't read it in any official capacity. Posters who address Microsoft demanding a fix are posting in the wrong place.

And then you get the Ambassador who thinks it's fun to post questions and never return to his thread, just so he can
fill the Ambassabank with unverified garbage to rank up his Ambassador symbol.

Console Wars? A general sense of entitlement? The ability to hide behind a shield of anonymity? People
believing quantity equals quality? People harping on statistics without context?

 

Some people have been loyal to Xbox since the beginning and for some reason or another have become unhappy with the quality of goods and services.They have that right since they spend good money.Problem is theres no place for them to express their dissatisfaction.This
is a Microsoft website dedicated to Xbox and it seems logical to post here.No one at Microsoft reads the feedback forums so where else can they post? If theres another website Microsoft will read user feedback please post this for us asap.

There are still some good people here as well as good discussions. A lot of the regulars (myself included) might come off as standoff-ish, because of the amount of crap and annoying people who showed up here post E3 last summer. There were a TON of trolls
and misinformation going on. It got to be rather frustrating signing on and having to deal with it. If someone has a question, I think the majority of us would be happy to help... it's just that sometimes these questions come off sounding condescending by
certain people.

I truly feel since the XBOne these forums have become split right down the middle. Interesting stuff about Microsoft Riven57 if you probably posted that in the One forums you most likely be called a troll.

 

Ah man, once you get used to the community and some of the regs around here it's actually quite a good place to chat imo.

-

If you want to visit a slightly more friendly place on the forums, come and chat in the general game discussion.

 

The forums aren't overly bad. Don't know about anyone else but I am getting sick of the dob a cheater threads around here and on the live discussion thread. Not so much of the good xbox discussion that used to be here or the xbox live related stuff in the
live forum.

 

Well the forums are changing soon, so maybe depending in what changes, it may bring back some of the older posters. I agree though, some people are very rude and standoffish at times which drives new people away.
