    You just need to stop. I felt bad for you before since you were really trying to make the poll work and make it fair, but because you're incessantly just correcting other people's spelling mistakes, and as an insult, no less - whatever. I hope this thread gets merged with kijib's more entertaining one.

    Hi guys,

    I thought I'd post some consolidated rules, since there's been issues recently.

    The short version

    - The forums exist to talk about iPhone and iPod Touch games primarily. Everything else is secondary. So preserving this discussion takes priority.
    - Don't cause trouble
    - Don't cause more work for the moderators
    - Don't spam the site
    - Use common sense

    The long version

    (not all of these will necessarily result in an automatic ban)

    - Don't post advertisements for your website/blog/podcast/youtube-channel on the site. (signature links are acceptable within reason). Self promotion is strictly prohibited.
    - Developers are welcome to post app announcements, but please identify yourself as the developer
    - Only developers may post promo code giveaways.
    - Don't beg/ask for promo codes or beta testing
    - Don't insult people - if you can't keep yourself from insulting others, you don't belong here
    - Don't post multiple threads on the same topic
    - Don't post in the WRONG forum ("iPhone games" is for games only)
    - Please use a descriptive title ("Help" is not descriptive)
    - Keep threads on topic - obviously things can stray onto related topics, but we've seen threads stray into personal and irrelevant topics.
    - Don't bump threads. This applies not only to posts that say "bump" but to those with the intent to bump.
    - Please avoid correcting spelling and grammar. English is not the primarily language for many people, and grammar discussion does not really add anything of substance to most discussions
    - Please post in English. Despite our international audience, this is an English language site.
    - One account per user. Don't post to multiple accounts.
    - Don't post fake announcements or impersonate individuals or companies
    - Shill accounts will result in a site-wide ban of the site, product or developer
    - No piracy. Discussion about piracy in the abstract is acceptable. But links or how-to's or where to get pirated software will quickly result in banning
    - Please keep language "clean"
    - Don't encourage ad blocking. The site exists due to ads.
    - Don't copy/paste entire articles from other sites. Please always link to original source. more details

    Just going to clear things up a bit here - crex, if you had just ignored TiltMyTouch's comment none of this would have started. Or you could have just politely asked him to leave if he didn't care about the poll.

    However, you changed his post to "I suck" and then posted this:

    Then, the conflict escalated as you began to pick a fight with ipodtouchgamer4. Though this was partially his fault, again, you could have ignored it, but chose not to, and posted this:

    And then repeatedly kept saying that he fails, all the while correcting his spelling like he's some kind of lower life form compared to you:

    Then, though this is partially TiltMyTouch's fault too, you began to get mad at him, and called him and idiot.

    Then, you changed another of his posts to say "Me Stupid!" and then said:

    I just wanted to post this so you know that this could have been stopped a lot earlier than it has.

    And on topic: It's interesting that even with the continued votes, Aralon has always been exactly 11 votes of Infinity Blade! That's pretty cool to me, I don't know.

    Only a 10 vote lead now.
    I find it pretty tragic that GTA has got so few votes

    Uhh, how is this my fault? The comment that apparently pissed crex off was:

    That in no way was meant to insult crex. The argument already started when I posted that, and that post was just something to calm things down. If anything, I tried to stop this until crex just became immature. I'll take blame when necessary, but this was in no way my fault :\

    No I'm talking about the argument about grammar and idiots that was so educational to read.

    I'm pretty sure I said that to you an hour or so ago when you were oh so furious and angry with other people. ;)

    Never mind, I want this thread back on track. :)

    Infinity Blade gets more votes than GTA or Real Racing 2? And Chaos Rings not in the list? Sorry, but this speaks of the general standard of gaming these days.

    IB truly is an incredible game and deserves to be in the discussion. Although I didn't vote for it, it really is a fantastic game for the mobile iOS platform: short bursts of playtime work perfectly with battles that last only a minute or two; the graphics and visuals are the best there is; the swipe gestures are intuitive and work perfectly on the touchscreen to simulate a sword fight; the items and leveling system are an addictive property that encourage replaying to master each item. Sure, it's not that "console" game that everyone talks about wanting for iOS, but it is the perfect game to have when thinking about the way people typically play iPhone games in short bursts.

    Keep in mind that most of the people who have idevices are casual gamers. They don't have previous experience with large consoles. It's not fair to judge like that.

    Wait, are you really saying you can have an XBox/PS3/PC, or an iPod, but not both?

    Please, walk me through your train of thought.

    (Also, this thread sucks. OP seems to be on some kind of "I'm in high school!" power trip.)

    Go learn something about the idevice and also the ratio between ipods/iphones before you talk with such a smartass tone. I can promise you that adults don't buy the iphone to play games on.

    A bold statement that needs to be supported with facts.
