This whole gaycube thing.......
 
Ill prob get in trouble for this thread but quite frankly i have had enough
Will all you Gamecube haters please stop calling it Gaycube. I am not the only one who is getting fed up with near enough every thread in this forum turning in to a chidish slanging match.
If you dont like the Gamecube just dont post in here, its easy enough to do.

(Prepares for a ton of bad rep)

I totally agree with you - just cos the Gamecube is a lesser selling console doesn't mean other people don't like it :)

Fair enough, we're all entitled to our opinions - I for one think the XBox looks ridiculous, far too bulky, but I don't go round calling it some childish name :)

It works for other subjects - if people don't like the thread, or the opinion, fair enough - but "gaycube" is a pathetic, childish name imho :)

I agree with you too, people using "gay" as a derogatory term need a good slap upside the melon.

Ill admit i did use that term a few times, allthough not really on these forums but it is annoying, just like when people call the xbox a brick or a pc, that also annoys me, so as a gamecube and xbox owner id just like them to be both called thier names, although gamecube can be abbrivated to GC :)

:rolleyes:
it doesnt matter one bit about the "age group", its the fact that your using "gay" as a derogatory term.

I don't think Defiant has the capability to grow up IC14, so I'd ignore him if i was you.

I think the mistake you are making is equating the number of units sold with quality. Look at the number of people that buy Gold Blend, and that isn`t exactly a quality coffee (personally I think that calling it coffee in the first place is stretching it a bit).

Damn right and good point! (just look at whats no. 1 in the charts most weeks :sick: )

Unfortunately the people who use this term (with one exception who can't help himself) just can't see what they are doing - and can't see it as a problem.

They also don't give a sh*t who they are offending.

It is sad - but I guess they should be looked on as the pitiful people they really are.

It shouldn't matter which system you chose - just be happy with it or them and leave it at that.
