  My moderation was unjustified!!!

  I actually made a thread in system wars for once, and it was about the lack of multiplayer in Metroid Prime 3 and Bioshock. Here was my post. And yes I know it would have been easier to link to the thread, but I'm a noob at that sort of thing.
  
  Just so yall know, I think MP3 and Bioshock are similar in the fact that they will both have an excellent single player experience since they are both single player focused games. They both will have compelling storylines that revolve around the exploration and the experiences of the main character. I am personally happy they don't have multiplayer because every game doesn't need multiplayer especially when that's not what the game is even about.
  
  But here's what I don't understand. Why do lemmings think it is okay for Bioshock to not have multiplayer, but think MP3 should have it? I find it rather sad and hypocritical that yall automatically think MP3 is going to suck now or isn't worth getting anymore because of the lack of multiplayer when Bioshock doesn't have it either, yet yall still praise it.
  
  So lemmings, please explain to me why you think Metroid Prime 3, an FPA, should have multiplayer, but Bioshock, an FPS with RPG elements, shouldn't?
  
  As you can see, I wasn't negative. All I wanted to know is why lemmings thought it was ok for Bioshock, and FPS with RPG elements, to not have multiplayer, but think Metroid Prime 3, an FPA, should? So I don't see anything wrong with asking this question. I never bashed either game, and even stated that I'm glad neither one had online multiplayer because I don't think it is needed.
  
  Here's where it gets interesting. I was accused of trolling of all things which resulted in points being deducted because they said I called lemmings hypocrites. If you reread that sentence, nowhere am I being derogatory. I don't see how using the word hypocritical in the manner it was used results in a moderation of trolling. All I can say is if you think that is trolling, then 95% of the threads and posts in the system wars forum would be considered trolling. I actually had a very well thought out post that had a valid argument unlike most of the threads and posts in system wars, yet it gets locked, while other threads that are blatant trolling threads remain open. All in all, I don't think the punishment fit the supposed crime IMO.
