    Exclamation A Warning for New Product Previews and Releases

    A Warning for New Product Previews and Releases

    This is a big time for XS and the entire computing world and there is an issue that XS Staff would like to address.

    Intel and AMD are both releasing new products very shortly and we’re all expecting a lot from both parties. Fortunately for us, we have members of this forum who have access to this hardware and are gracious enough to benchmark it and show us the results.

    However, every time we get one of these previews, there are people who feel the need to make a post saying how bad the other hardware is, or question the legitimacy of the hardware’s benchmark scores. Not only does the threadcrapping lead to further flaming, it leads threads off topic, frustrates a lot of people (especially those who provide the previews) and is just unnecessary. On top of all that, with all these previews, we have a lot of visitors viewing the forum and it makes XS look bad.

    This threadcrapping has to stop.

    Consider this the official warning to all! XS Staff will not hesitate to possibly ban those who threadcrap.
