It is hard out here for us fanboys. So many people hating on us and our way of life. Listen, us fanboys have existed since time immemorial. Us fanboys are not the problem, per se. No, I believe the problem is a new type of fanboy. This new breed of fanboy refuses to engage in cordial discourse, and instead relies on unconventional tactics (spamming and trolling) to make its point. This new breed of fanboy is a disgrace and brings shame on all of us fanboys who are rational and polite.
Also, I think people underestimate the impact a fanboy can have on the company it chooses to support. A company desires a customer that is loyal, and that company will strive to keep such customers. If a company grows complacent and offers an inferior product that disappoints the fanboy, the company should realize that its endeavors are as good as done. I know the popular idiom says that hell hath no fury (like a woman scorned). I, however, would change the idiom to read something like this: hell hath no fury (like a fanboy scorned).
