@mw93 Do you even own TS4? I went and read several of your comments to get some insight into you. According to your comments, you never upgraded to TS4.
I dont even agree with OP but searching through their post history to prove a point is uncool. Unless they are saying something damaging/harmful or making threats, its getting too personal looking past at their history. Thats toxic behavior imo
Normally, I would agree with you. However, when people demand things be removed from a game because it's offensive to them, it would make sense to know if they ever even played the game or series. Because TS4 is infamous if some don't know due to people coming to the site to post off the wall requests that would affect those who actually purchase the game and or have played the game and stopped for whatever reasons, but have no intention of ever buying it or playing it. This has happened hundreds of times in the past seven years. Because of an agenda to cancel anything and everything. I don't know the OP nor did I look up the posts and replies of past subjects, but if you want to understand a point of view it's good to have some history of the person posting. (So others can either have empathy and or see the post for what it is.)
I understand that being important, but I dont like investigating people's comment history (when trying to prove a point /when someones opinion is a stark difference from yours) as a general rule, because often its things taken out of context (gotcha! Style) or things have changed since then and a user wouldnt know that. Some feelings may have changed, other circumstances, new relevant info etc. You already have to feel some type of way to have to go back and search peoples history to find some kind of contradiction so you can prove a point.
I find it much more conducive to a productive conversation by asking upfront instead of assuming. "OP, do you still play the game now? Are you still interested in TS4? Is this really make or break for you?" Instead before saying on this date 2 months ago on a Tuesday night at 6pm you said yadda yadsa Unless they are saying something potentially damaging. But that's my perspective.
