See? No attempt to understand, just degrade.

"Sell" is a metaphor, not literal. Peddling blind F4ITH is indeed what's happening. Wanting us to buy a game no matter what, or shutting up, is indeed being pushed.

On the surface of it, the car dealer isn't either. He works at a
different lot! At the dealership you stand in, he repeatedly reminds you that he is just an Average Jane, like you! He just really loves cars, and sees no reason to question the one you are looking at.
Yeah, but he still has a
financial interest and
motive for being there... otherwise, he's just there to chat, right?
Honestly, and contrary to jtr7's usual ramblings, I don't actually personally care who buys or doesn't buy the game, or who likes or dislikes this or that. Its just interesting to share views. :)

What drives me nuts is that you repeatedly act surprised that people question you.
I'm not surprised... I just tire of the repeated comments about it. I've already answered many times... but
some people don't accept. Just as yourself. :p

For the third time now: The guy at the lot speaking to you works at a DIFFERENT dealership! That is the premise of this argument. He may be friends with the people at the lot you are in. He may be employed by the car's manufacturer too. We don't know. The point is that you would QUESTION it! Which is what people are doing with you.
Secondly, I have never questioned your motivations at any point, or in any place. I really could not care less what they are. What I question is your inability to understand why people are unsure what to think about you. You are affiliated with a company that wishes to sell to us a product. No matter how small the affiliation is, it is there. That alone is why people question you. I am not saying they are right or wrong. I am saying that its completely understandable why people question it. In addition, you should have been well aware and EXPECTING that this would happen when you became a moderator for Eidos (AKA the company that wants money from us.)

I understand why people wonder. It doesn't make it logical though.
Also, where people have questioned... I have provided a truthful answer. So, where do we go from here? My thought is that people would just drop it now. :cheeky:
I understand... but, hey, I can't do any more than that. Its up to people to fix their own mindsets. :)

Sure, I expected SOME to be unfriendly. Humans come in many shapes and sizes.
Though justifying any hate-campaign against me on the grounds that I am a mod is extremely unfair, of course.

First: Explain to me why it is illogical.
Second: I endorse no campaign of hate. If you think I have any dislike for you, or wish to attack you on here, then you have missed the point.

Its illogical to me because I have no motive.

I wasn't referring to you personally. :)

That does not make it illogical. It means you disagree with what they are saying. However, you have the advantage of knowing the truth. Everyone else does not.
