exactly, I want to know the exact reason

This guy doesn't really believe it or said the post was hoaxed or edited or faked or something on Sega Forum and might not know who made the post (who the guy really is), doesn't know Sega contacted youtube users affected by flags and many other things. While I agree it's good he is looking at it from all angles and I agree with some of what he said at end, can someone nicely (please don't troll him) explain this situation better than I did to him in PMs (not sure why he didn't just hit reply in PM and talked to me or asked me for more info before he did video) or comments ? In his comment reply to someone he types it's a lie but it's not. My activity or inactivity was irrelevant to the actual info I provided which was Post 273 http://forums.sega.com/showthread.ph...=1#post7888976 or youtube user Synbios16 who received a message from Sega or others who know more about it and made youtube videos after they checked more into what I said.

Why do I care about ProBMan5's opinion again?

Rhetorically, of course, because I don't.

I don't know anything about him except he made a Sega is flagging video, and I sent info/updates that Sega apologized, to everyone who once made Sega is flagging videos. Saw him type "it's a lie" to someone in a comment and wanted him to know it isn't.

Edit :

So does this guy has a bad reputation or something ?

No, he's just taken the time to question the authenticity of the announcement. If he really cared to look into the matter, he would have emailed communityteam@sega.com directly regarding the identity behind the pseudonym and what his/her association to SEGA is. He didn't. And like TheSonicRetard said, a youtuber's opinion is irrelevant in the whole scheme of things.

You don't have to care then, it was more what he was typing in comments to others "it's a lie". Views are irreverent to the info anyway, just like I said to him. I just said if someone here wants to add more info in the comments to correct what they are saying in comments, that would be cool. If most of you guys don't give a fuck, okay.

If youtube closed tomorrow I wouldn't care either, but 20,000 people subscribed to those Sega fan youtubers hosted videos found out Sega apologized after I sent the youtubers info about it. So it's good the word got out at least. But there is a problem typing "it's a lie".

I would have to say I completely agree with TheSonicRetard, this fan's video is hyperbole and shouldn't be taken seriously at all.

Sega of America just has lousy management and piss poor PR. Aaron Webber's statement may have been generic, but people should just take it at face value.

WTF is hyperpole?

Context clues should tell you he meant hyperbole.

Again agreed. Aaron Webber's generic PR statement is what it is. Some random youtuber's opinion is ideology if there's nothing definitive to back it up is just rhetorical nonsense based on the grounds that SEGA of America's apology didn't feel legit.

ProBman should just shut up and take Aaron's word that this is Sega of America's response on the matter.

It's not even Ruby's statement...

**Vector2013** · 03-26-2013, 03:41 PM

The first time I saw it Ruby posted it on Sega forum (so that is what I sent) but Synbios16 told me he got the same message on youtube from another before anything was posted publicly.

Its all a bunch of different PR qoutes from Sega blended into some generic company statement courtesy of Aaron Webber/RubyEclispe.

It's just bland PR that on behalf of the entire Sega of America staff, which is course what I've been referring to.

**TrekkiesUnite118** · 03-26-2013, 03:45 PM

It's not even blended courtesy of him. He just regurgitated word for word what other people were already saying in emails to affected youtube accounts.
