@dazzybee, I don't know how many times it needs saying, but I'd like to know what you think we'd all be discussing in this board if the Mods imposed the sort of moderation you seem to want.
Did you not notice a vast difference in personalities and discussion during E3 week?... I know I did.
Comments are far more likely to get left in this board because at least it's a discussion, if Nintendo were doing their job correctly we'd have other things to discuss.
And as for the repetitive 'You don't see Nintendo fans going into the Other Console board and troll those consoles'... well no, but such members just do it within the comfort of this board where they know owners of those consoles will see it anyway.
Threads are often derailed by members randomly bringing other console comparisons into things.
Also, by all means volunteer to be a Mod if you like, you'll then see for yourself that things aren't as easy to balance around here as you seem to think.
