So, every so often we see a fanboy thread pop up. No big deal, we can all just ignore them and they'll go away. Many other sites have infestations of fanboys, all calling each other out for their fanboyism whilst failing to recognise their own. What I suggest is, that rather than allying yourself with a particular system, the majority of users call themselves Fanboys of Gaming; FaGs for short. We FaGs are those who try to stand up for our medium when it's being looked down on, when a group condemns a game for some reason, whatever platform it may be on. We'll all agree that even if there is only one game we enjoy on a certain console, we'll enjoy it no matter what colour of box it slides into. Yes, we may have preferences, but arguments aren't necessary.

So, if we can all coexist as FaGs, we can work together to try and make the internet a better place for everyone who plays games.

Or, you know, just tell me I'm an idiot if that's what you think.

I do understand your idea though and it is quite a noble one, i just doubt it would ever be accepted, people just like trashing eachother too much

I think the idea of having everyone be fanboys or gaming and gaming culture is an awesome idea but it would never work really. In our hearts we are all fans of video games that much we can all agree on. But in our minds we all have a loyalty to a patricular platform of gaming, devleoper, publisher, game, franchies etc etc etc and our inner trolls just lash out uncontrolled at anyone who disagrees with us. Its something that will never stop, not while we have so many gaming platforms.

It's a nice concept, but I do love the Microsoft fanboy whispering in my ear. I think I'll keep him! Ugh, that was him talking. No it wasn't, yes it was. Stop it! NO DO IT! ASDF:KLajsdkl;fasdf

Let's demean fanboys so that they won't be around so long.

I like his idea. The name is insulting.

Thats kinda funny but even if we done that wouldn't we just be co-existing with ourselves and be fanboys to other hobbies therefore taking pointless arguments to a whole new level.

It was meant to be humorous. It was deliberate, but intended as a joke.

If you don't like it then we can just say FoG :)

FoG doesn't make sense, though.

Besides, isn't this thread about demeaning fanboys that ruin our forum?

That name works too.

I am no fanboy, but I am sure that giving them a nickname will at least slow them down.

Thats stupid. If a game sucks are you going to stand up for it? If Doug Lombardi goes on a killing spree will you say he's innocent? If the Wii doesnt stop sucking will you still say its good because Zelda TP was good 2 years ago? No.

How about this, you get your own oppinions on things and be prepared to say that some things in the gaming industry suck ass. Fanboy mentality of any kind is just dumb

rofl,This thread made me laugh a lot,Fanboys or no fanboys,your just gamer who have opinion,keep it to yourself,you like the game or your a fanboy,you eventually wear off from it. i dont expect you to be a fanboy and like the game even when your dead.
