Forums - Gaming Discussion - Trolls and fanboys retarded or not?

Debating with a troll is like driving a broken car. It's stressful, difficult, annoying and you just don't want to do it.

Comparing a troll or fanboy to a mental disorder is very ignorant.



I think it is a maturity factor that you normally grow out of, it is really sad to see a grown man that is an obsessive fanboy.



Well some trolls just do it to piss other people off and are actually smart people who just want to get a rise out of someone on the internet. Other trolls, are just stupid people who follow hive mind group think BS about their favorite company like they are in a cult or something like it, those people are retarded.



 

I literally think they're retarded. I mean it's video games. There is something legitimately wrong with the people that send me Youtube messages like this:

*goes to youtube to find messages*

*realizes all messages have been deleted*

Fuck you, youtube. Fuck you so much.

Anyway, in the past, people have gone out of their way to sen me messages about how much Xbox 360 sucks, how much I suck for liking Xbox 360, how Tomb Raider sucks and Uncharted is awesome, metacritic scores, etc. like I give a shit!! For someone to put so much effort into such an endeavor is insane to me. Even now, I still get messages on MY PS3 about how I'm a fanboy. Who loves a console this much!?

You computer games fanboys are nothing compared to comic book fanboys, I love X-men comics yet I hate X-men comics so much right now it makes me sad, yet I still buy them each month. That's true fanboyism.



Hmm, pie.

Do you think they have problems with mental functioning and relating to individuals functional skills in the environment aka are they intellectually disabled or retarded if you will?


Sort of. You know.... these kind of people probably have low self-steeem and need something to lift up their egos, so they focus on brand loyalty for that.

Kinda crazy, in my point of view, but annoying nonetheless

no it's not.



Is it really that hard to accept that fanboys are very similar to a sports team fan, except the obvious difference of entertainment medium?

Certainly not intellectually disabled or retarded, as I function very well in social situations and make a hell of a lot of money.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.

Waiting for the trolls and bias people to show up and say how bias and trollish other people are

I always laugh to myself when i see people who are completely oblivious to their behavior.

I am forever grateful being on the outside looking in
