Discussion: Fans vs Fanboys
nintenman99 (2014-07-23 00:10:13)I thought the fanboy examples were pretty funny. And how do you do the troll face? And how long did it take you to write that.

It does, but that's the truth. It took me like 15 minutes to write this.

pikarceus (2014-07-23 05:02:25)PC "master race" is the worst. They always moan that consoles are "holding back" PC not even realizing that without the sales from console devs wouldn't even have the money to make their juiced up PC versions.
Sony fanboys can be pretty nasty, they sent the Final Fantasy creator death threats just for putting XIII on 360. That's pathetic. I can understand getting pissed at a game not being on your system, but being angry because more people can play it? wtf?
Xbox fanboys are generally just dumb as bricks. The "dudebros" if you will.
And then Nintendo fanboys are just generally butthurt all the time. They refuse to acknowledge that people besides Nintendo make good games.
Overall, fanboys suck. Most of the time the mindset develops because they are too poor to own multiple systems so they try to justify their current system.
nintenman99 (2014-07-23 15:03:40)Honestly, every gamer becomes a fanboy at least once in their life. Including me.

Nin10dude789 (2014-07-23 15:45:41)^Really? Just because I like the 3DS while you don't?

So, are we really ready to talk about this topic? Maybe not, but I'll do it anyway just to see what other people think.
So what made me to do this? Well, on Google+, everyone is fighting about which console is better, and PC master race crap, and as always Wii U getting ignored.
YouTube applies as well, but then, I saw this YouTube video by Nintendo Project discussing about that topic.
Here's the video if you want to check it out, or if you're on 3DS or don't want to watch the video, then read along.
WARNING:
This topic will be too long to read, so if you don't want to read this at all, then leave and simply don't comment. Simple as that. Ok?
So, what is a fan? Well, a fan can be anything.
That thing on your cealing.He/She can have a prefrence of something based on their favorite hobby. For example, a fan of a cirtain movie, TV show, book, and video games.So when we have a personal prefrence, we are fans of it because we enjoy it. As a fan, we know its flaws and accept it. We also respect other people's opinion on our favorite things.. Fans don't worship their preference as a religion and make an altar or something. We just simply enjoy that thing the most out of others, but that doesn't mean we hate it to death or anything like that.
Also having a least favorite doesn't mean we're haters as well, unless if we have a reason. (I'll go into detail later on) But a reeal life, and logical reson why we dislike that product, movie, or whatever.
Now, let's talk about fanboys.
Oh boy.
*sighs* *cracks fingers*
So, what is a fanboy? Well, a fanboy is a die-hard fan of a cirtain thing based on their favorite hobby. A fanboy will do anything for their prefrence. They'll battle it out to death, and even cause problems to other people. Insulting other people just because they disagree with other people's opinion about their favorite thing will fight for a stupid reason.
Fanboys are single-minded people. They think their prefrence and opinions are supperior and dominant and whatever. Other things to them are crap and whatever. Fanboys aren't awear of other things their prefrence's flaws. When they hear a flaw about their prefrence, they'll always deny it and refuse to listen to other people's opinions. Even critics.
Fanboys always have a stupid reason on why disliking a ciratin thing.
Here's an example:
Fan: The Wii U is the best console ever in my opinion.
Fanboy: no itz not!!!!!111!!!!1! da xbox one iz da bezt consol eva!!!111!!!!! da wii u iz 4 leetle kids!1!1!1111 ur gey!!!!11!!
F: Why do you dislike the Wii U?
Fb: b cuz da wii u is lame!!!!!11!1!1! xbox iz bedr!!! it haz da best grafix!!!!111!!!!11!1!
See how idiotic they look? They give no real reason why disliking the console and insults the person enjoying it.
Same applies to PC elists:
Fan: The PS4 is amazing! Lot's of cool games to play!
PC Elist: pc master race!!!! your sh!tty console sucks!!!1!!! it doesn't have the specs to play games!!!!111!!!
F: So? As long it has games to play, I'm fine.
PE: but steam has better sales!!!!!111!11!!1 we have more games than you!!!!!!1!1!1 your games are underpowerd!!!1!1!!!1 our games have better graphics!!!!1!!11!11 my pc has 4K resolution, and 7653487563298759fps!!!!1!11!1!! can your console do that? no!!!!!1!!! pc master race!!1111!1!11 youre a console peseant!!1!!!1
Idiotic as well.
Fanboys also makes a bad look to people who are joining to play games on consoles or PC. What if the person can have both? You can't make him to play your prefrence.
The word fanboy is very missused. And a lot.
Just because you have a prefrence or opinion about something, people will consider you a fanboy. Even if you dislike something, or having a least favorite thing people will still consider you a fanboy. As long you don't apply for any reasons for fanboy, then you're fine.
If you're a fanboy and are reading this, then I'm ready for your insults!! Come at me bro! \
You know you're butthurt of the truth. You can't deny it.
So that's about it! Let's discuss.
