You need to watch more shows if you think Fallout was worth awards. Like someone else said, it was fun, but it was not that good.

Being passive aggressive about taste of all things, is not nice. This is your reminder to be(e) nice on this instance.

Please tell me you're joking. I wasn't being mean in any way.

Tone is tough online. You're probably trying to be helpful, but some people will read a strongly worded direct suggestion as unfounded criticism. Acknowledging the other opinion as valid before offering the suggestion is one way to soften the tone without massively changing the core of your point.

Well, honestly if someone can't contextualize tone on a forum they shouldn't be in a position to threaten mod actions. It's pretty important to be able to read things correctly.

Your sentence, will not having an outright insult in it, did diminish the other person's experiences and perspectives.
